This is blog number 49999 or something similar. The next person to create one is gonna be like "wow, blog 50000! That's like 5% of a million!" But anyway, onto the point.
Neural Funk, the greatest band that ever was, is basically on hiatus. So, I have asked my friend Maddy, who plays a bit o' banjo, to fill in for the drummer as the other half of the rhythm section. I don't want to replace the drummer, as she is very dear to me and I want her to feel as though she will always have a place in any band of which I am a part. But. I can't keep the beat alone. Well, I can, but I prefer not to. People will be like "but Andy, how can you have a punk vibe without any drums?" and to them I say "shut your piehole, cake-eater!"
Punk is just that--a vibe. You don't need a fucking musical style for punk (though it can be argued otherwise). As long as we play our hearts out, and as long as we have synergy, we will succeed. That is all any true band ever needed. Talent? No. Talent is second to heart. Heart is second to nothing.
Love,
/Andy
