That’s right folks, we will be at Bass Line Station in a few weeks, starting around 9:30pm. This will be the last show of 2009, so we’re gonna send her out with a bang! We’re looking forward to playing BLS again, so come out and join us for another great night of Rock with RL!

RL launching into 2010
Hello fans,
Well people, we will soon be rolling over into a new calendar year…2010! Big things are on the horizon for the boys in the band. We have the second half of the new album to write and record, we’re starting to line up a bunch of new gigs around town, and we’ll be adding a fire-eating donkey named Chico to our live shows!!…ok, just kidding, but how cool would that be?!
Rather than staying close to Ottawa for all our shows, we will be venturing into new ground and checking out what the O-Valley has to offer. There are so many great venues that we haven’t had the chance to play at yet, so we’re really pumped to bring our show to them. Keep checking in here to keep up to date on all the new show stops and dates!
We’ve heard the Valley fans love their Rock and Roll and want to see more live bands play close to their town….well the best is on its way in 2010!…be warned ;0
Cheers, RL.

New Album Update!
Hello RL fans from around the globe!
Well, our “Master of the Knobs” (wow that sounds bad…) Duane has completed the final mix-down of the first five songs we recorded a few months ago!
The list is as follows: Make me King, Shot Queen, Outside Man, Where Do I Begin, and a reinvented cover of the Ramones tune Havana Affair.
It’s pretty cool to see the tunes come together once again. I kinda forgot what that was like. To tell you the truth we play through the songs so quickly when we’re recording, I hope my parts sound good and there’s no flubs in there anywhere! After listening and burning some copies last night, everything sounds good and tight…I’m happy!
We are currently testing another original song that is coming together as well. I’m not sure how many tunes we are planning to put on this album, but close to ten I would imagine. A nice even ten would be perfect…just have to write the remaining four! I blame Areeb for dragging his feet all the time. It’s just not fair to the rest of us *snicker*. Then we could start planning the world tour, streamline our riders, purchase new gear, and start rounding up chicks with very poor morals:-)
Cheers, RL

Rocket Lounge 2009
Gotta love new pictures. Man, what a good looking band….
Rocket Lounge 2009
Cheers,

Hey, Ger here.
We finally have a way to stream some of our tunes on this thing! Check out the lovely box.net widget on the right-hand column here in ye old blog. We’ll be adding our tunes to box.net and you can stream ‘em here, instead of having to venture elsewhere in the Intartubez.
Pretty slick, no?
We’ll probably slap up the “Everybody’s Got a Story” tracks n’ stuff and eventually some more sneak peeks of the new stuff we’re working on.
This makes me happy. It doesn’t take much.
Mark it in your calendars, kiddies! Familiar venue, not so familiar set list. We’re going to switch it up quite a bit this time and give you a different look at the band. What does that mean? Well, you’ll have to show up to find out!
As always on a Friday night at Bass Line, there’s no cover…zero, nada! See you there! \m/
