Life as we know it in Massachusetts may change...slightly. Or at least we'll see what we're in for. Serves them right though. A campaign is for campaigning. Damaging and stupid. Yes, we're a little upset at the results here in Camp Aloud regarding our home state's special election, but not much can be done about it at this particular moment and there's music to be made... So...

Really, really looking forward to starting studio sessions again this Thursday. We'll be doing some backing vocals and percussion. Perhaps some piano. Then we should be able to move on to a whole new track on Friday/Saturday. ELATED! After the studio on Saturday we'll be joining the Soozapalooza All Stars for a couple of numbers at the Precinct in Somerville, MA. I may or may not be singing some Gladys Knight.

Things are really all about recording now though we're also thinking about a few shows in March including the just announced show on March 25 at Great Scott in Allston, MA. We're working out some special things for the set list and on stage attire. Planning on heading down to the shops tomorrow to look for a few new clothing items for that and the mod wedding. Speaking of, am relieved to say I have purchased dress and shoes for said ceremony. Grand relief and excitement. :)

Henry's been working on a website face lift, so that may change in the next month or so. I'm very much liking the new design! A bit more user friendly with quick access to links for Aloud on Twitter, Facebook, Blog and the like.

Oh, must also recommend the new Pedro Almodovar movie entitled Los Abrazos Rotos or Broken Embraces. Check out the trailer. Penelope Cruz is in it and if you've ever seen her in one of his films you know what I'm talking about! Oh and if you're familiar with the McGruber sketch on SNL, they've actually filmed a movie of it with Val Kilmer as the villain. For realz! Check it.

Cheers,

Jen
