To catch up on what you've missed out on in the world of the the LGC check
out the bio.
Friday, November 28th: We played for record
labels (Murder records, Cinnamon Toast records, and No records), and got
absolutely blown away by the competion! It was a great experience though,
mainly because we were the youngest band there, and it gives us good ideas
for a direction to look toward. We played with Soup, Coping, Super 8 Deluxe,
and Apex.
Wednesday, December 3rd: Rough night. Bob
and I (Matt) played at the high school coffee house and ended up laughing
at ourselves the whole time, so it was fun for us but the sound quality
suffered. From this we moved down to the Tuns bar called "The T-Room".
With no set list we trudged through 2 and a half hours of originals and
a few covers. The few that attended seemed generally impressed despite
Pat breaking 2 strings in the span of 3 songs, Matt's amp finally dyeing,
Matt's vocals not being loud enough, and Andrew being thrown off beat by
the constant flash of cameras. Oh well, we got paid $100. We plan to take
a bit of a break and write some new stuff, and find out what direction
we want to go.
Saturday, December 5th: The new set list
is under way! Four new songs are in their basic stages. The songs are all
still sticking with the LGC style but add a little grit to the sound while
trying to use more melodic vocal parts. "Homicidal Man" and "Empty Screens"
have lyrics while two others are being finished up musically.
Friday, January 29th: The LGC open up an
ECMA (East Coast Music Awards) assembly in Halifax West High School. They
played "Her House" and a new song called "Mindlessly in a Chair". Both
songs got a good reaction from the crowd. Two other bands played, Wooderson
(who had the most beautiful and talented singer I've ever seen, I think
her name was Gina) and Big Fish, Small Fish who also had an attractive
lead singer, but it was a man. LGC promised to unveil there whole new arsenal
of pop gems along with their long awaited tape in the AV room of the school
very soon. Pictures will soon be up in the band image room.
Tuesday, February 17th: Yet another
school gig. The boys played in the all to familiar cafeteria setting to
a packed crowd. 5 songs where banged out, the only ones heard before were
the infamous Her House and relatively new Mindlessly in a Chair, the new
songs were Wooderson (yes, written about the singer in the band mentioned
above), Rigor Mortis, and Bodhisttva. The gig went well but I think the
audience is getting tired of getting blown away while trying to eat lunch.
Thursday, April 23rd: The big Weststock
gig. It was a great show for the band, highlighted by "Untitled", which
got the crowd jumping at least as much as Her House. The Band also played
about 20 minutes over their given time, which essentially means they bent
over the Holiday Snaps and gave it to them, cause they only got to play
two songs despite being the best band there.
Sometime in Early March: Colin Macdermid
joins the band as the new bassist. He smells good, and knows alot about
Bologna so he's in.
Monday June 1th: Condon from the Pavilion
called last night and gave us a gig with the illustrious
Elevator
to Hell, and the Sades on
June 28th, although I'm getting a little tired of playing with such amateurs,
but I guess it'll pass the time.
Sunday June 28th: The gig with Elevator
Through came and went, LGC played a generally bad set, but still got compliments
from fans and the Sades. The next gig is on July 31st for Nathan's
Flat tape release.
