Good stuff man!

Though as this computer doesn't have a soundcard, I feel I'm missing part of the experience. Bookmarked for later.

Yay Owen and Cara. Great stuff.

My 2 bucks worth.
Cara, can't wait until you've got a few more gigs behind you and start to get that confidence thing going. I know it won't be long. You have a really engaging personality which is gonna work really well on stage. Just a little hesitant there but as I said, a few gigs should sort that out.
Owen, super impressed with your playing as always, but more so how well your sound sits in the mix. Y'know, like I'd be way too loud and Raf would be way too quiet? Good balance dude.

Didn't have time to listen to both songs but the first one is really nice. Strong even. If I had one criticism it would be that it's too long for the sort of pop song it is. Chop a minute off of it and leave 'em wanting more. :)

Come to AK and play. :D

Oh sorry that's meant to sound more complimentary than it reads. :)

I don't understand what you are saying. I'm old :?

But if anyone was wanting links to our web shizz, they'd be:
Website
Facebook
Myspace

Not many clips up yet, but looks like we should probably get on to that! :wink:

Hey Capt – thank you :) I know exactly what you mean and I reckon I’ll get better with each performance now that we have the first one out of the way!

The song that got left out here was “Coming Home” which was our opener. Prolly a bit too poppy for this crowd ;)

Rob – we’re tryin to incorporate your ideas into our next song hehe

Thanks Capt. :) The chats we had with you at The Manor really did help to fire us into action, so thanks again for that :)

Good call on the length of the songs. We do tend to go on a bit ;) I hope you didn't notice that the second song is over 6 minutes :lol:

If Auckland wants us to play, we will make it happen somehow ;)
