Too much beer? You sound like Lemmy…
Oh my… who would have thought… Today I talked to a buddy at work and his voice sounded really bad… Bad as in “Tom Waits with a soar throat”-bad. Described by critic Daniel Durchholz as sounding “like it was soaked in a vat of bourbon, left hanging in the smokehouse for a few months, and then taken outside and run over with a car.” Well no, it wasn’t that bad… it was worse… he sounded more like Lemmy Kilmister of Motörhead.
So I just assumed he had been drinking more than Heineken can produce on one night. For a minute I thought of making a joke referring to his “grunting“-days… but with the weekend almost here I didn’t want to risk a serious beating… So I just let it be. Maybe he was coming down with a cold or something harmless…
So I checked his blog and I learned his old metalband is back together to record some demo’s of their best songs… He has been grunting after all!! On his blog he refers to his voice as sounding like Lemmy as well! I hope he doesn’t mind I link to the homepage of his band Hectic… ROCK ON!! I hope the demo’s will be made available when they are done.

Yep, and darn convenient it was! There was a sound proof music/ recording/ rehearsal studio especially built in that basement where we could pretty much turn up the (big marsell and peavey) amps till the point it would seriously damage our hearing (I’z playing with ear plugs)!! And when taking a break we’d be relaxing a bit on the couches in the spacious lounge area down there as well.
Beats having to pay ‘em bucks renting a studio and having to share it with others (who might mess around with your gear) big time!! Oh those good old days
