Another one from the archives. Here is a pic of my very first band, "Horse of a Different Colour" (with the English spelling to be fancy)
This band started with me on drums and my high school friend Will Kerr (sp?) on bass. I can't remember the girl on vocals but she was friends with Will. This portrait shows us in a Emo stance.
I think we only played cover songs and we never played out. Will was probably 2 years ahead of me so my the time we got rolling he graduated. This was probably around 1994 or 1995.
Some of the songs we rocked:
Here Comes Your Man by The Pixies
These Boots by Op Ivy (who was covering Nancy Sinatra)
Negative Creep, Floyd the Barber, Son of Gun (Vaselines) by Nirvana
To this day, my neighbor is still jealous that I got to play drums and be in a band!
From an older, wiser musician - if you can avoid it, don't ever sell equipment. I still wish I had that awesome dark red/purple Tama kit. That green box fan in the left corner, though, is still around at my dad's house.
