Same Old Song & Dance

In the start of my Aerosmith song title posts theme (don't ask, I only just decided), I thought I'd let everyone know what's going on.

Firstly, and most importantly, I had an audition for a band on Sunday. They're called Albany Down and they need a new singer. Originally Leicester-based, they came to London to reform after their original singer buggered off (much like a certain guitarist I could mention). According to their website, they got a load of critical acclaim and one of their songs won a bunch of awards. Can't say fairer than that.
The audition went pretty well; they seemed to be pretty impressed. I think they were expecting to need more attempts at the songs (I had 4 to learn), but I had learned them all pretty well. Got an email about it today which said:
"...we think you will be an asset to any band"
Can't say fairer than that.

I was offered a part as an extra in the new Nicholas Cage National Treasure movie, but the offer was then dropped because the agency didn't have a picture of me in a suit. Seems like a silly reason to me, but if that's the rules I can't really argue with them.
They said they'd try and see if they could get me in, but I'm not sure how likely that is.

Still, it was a promising week. Finges crossed on the whole band front.
