Will I Forget You Tomorrow?

"Cause, everyone's got their troubles, I can show you.
You crawl, are you carrying the weight of our troubles.
Our indifference has destroyed you (Vultures)"

--------------------------------
Today was a day like many others. Wake up, turn the computer on, and think about songs.
Walk, eat, and then work some more.
Sing, laugh, then shed a tear or two.
Because as of lately, everything seems to be hanging on a song.

The Legalities of Life

Up above, the countertop, lives my motivation
if you brush off the cobwebs, you can see there's some artistic inclination
to want to write and sing and perform
to be able to share the hurt, pain, and the joy
But there are too many functionalities to account for
particularly when the inside cant connect to the outerworld
Is it time for a break or some quite contemplation?
To find the definition of this lack motivation,
I can not account for?
Perhaps, all I have to do is close my eyes and wish it so.
But my eyes are starting to feel heavy, its time for a pause.

Many activities in Bella land, trying to find the time to see it all through.
Up next, should be the premiere of our 2nd DIY video for the song "Try" from the Premonitions EP.
Stay tuned.

Lightning

Take me with you,
as you call me so clearly,
everyone is laughing,
but Im feeling so sleazy.
there is nothing to wonder,
when you are fully awake,
is there anything to be,
if I sit here, scared.
And if you shall holler,
and call him, your own,
you'll always be searching,
dunk the ball in the hole,
so sit and pretend,
it all makes sense,
when the whispers they tell you,
to celebrate the new day.

Howdy!

We've been cooking up a storm here at Bella Noir; cooking up a little feast of cool things, and new songs, and new things to do.
Sorry, we disappear off the face of the planet every few weeks or so. Life does get hectic.....I am sure you can relate.

We've got some shows lined up for the next few months. Also, working on booking some out of town shows. We'll be playing a benefit concert in Philly this summer...looking forward to that!

Now....just to change gears a bit.....Help to cut down in unnecessary consumerism...!!

I recently discovered this good website for getting rid of unnecessary catalogs you get in the mail. Do the planet and yourself a favor and visit, catalogchoice.org . Create an account , and if you know all the junk catalogs you get, search for them on their database and take yourself off their mailing list.

Every little bit helps.

Okay, back to music. ...

We are playing Fontanas tommorrow at 10:30pm, http://www.fontanasnyc.com/

Come on by.

See ya!

Oh Hi There.....


(photo credit: Jason Schorr)

So now that the CD Release is an afterthought, we move on to the next thing. But not first without some rest, we are all a little sleepy, alittle sick, a little tired.

Thank you so much to everyone who came out despite rainy, cold, dreary weather and danced their hearts with us.

We will be in touch much sooner than later.

We All Live In A Music Submarine

Regardless, what you think, we have not been lazy these few weeks that we have not written....really, truly, believe me. We've been busy doing things, many things, all sorts of things, things that you can't even imagine, school things, music things, love things, fight things, sad things, happy things, funny things, amusing things, creative things, vacationing in other countries things, things of things, just plain things.

We are happy to soon release to those that want to listen, our debut EP, Premonitions: 5 songs + 1 little medley.

Try
Stand Closer
On the Floor
My Son
Bellow
Distraction

Lots of things to do before then.

Nothings Going To Come: Part II

We Are Still Alive, We Are Still Alive, We Are Still Alive

Enjoying some much needed peace and quite.....last few weeks of this month have been a blur...holidays passed right by in a big mad whirl.

Distraction...has become a distraction from all other things....multiples of multiples of vocal performances for that song and not one that rings right....This song has become the last pain in the arse....

all others happily coming together, shall I dare to say, slowly, very s-l-o-w-l-y making their way to the mastering stage. Oh this would all be great.

Its As If Our World Is Moving Ever So Slowly, Even Though Plenty Of People Are Speeding By

We are playing our last show of the year this Wednesday, 12/5 at 10:30pm at the Mercury Lounge, visit www.mercuryloungenyc.com for more details and come by and keep our stage warm with us.

Time seems to be moving very slow for us as we eagerly wait and work on finishing this EP; 8 months in the making. So many things on hold, just waiting for this to be done.

New Years Resolutions are on our minds....all hoping to feel whole, complete, and free.

On other news, we seem to be finding numerous nuggets of art/music/fun in the Greenpoint/Williamsburg area....that area is filled to the rim with some many crevices to explore......so come have a late night with us.....

Especially this wednesday, 12/5.....we will certainly need you then :)

Best

Final Chuckles

Dropped over $50 on vegan/vegetarian food for our trip back downstate. Such healthy beasts we are. One last long haul of our gear into the truck and back home....certainly have sore muscles from having to carry it around this cold weather and in general.

Did some early morning recording for our upcoming EP.

Day Two: B-U-F-F-A-L-O

Nice, very nice...to pick up old vintage the Smiths and some other lovely tunes. Played to a two hands full of people, but not before we first visited the Niagara Falls....lovelier in person....than in computer pictures life.

People of Buffalo, very supportive, provided us with much needed information for a second follow up show sometime next year. Dali's Ghost, lovelier in person than in myspace life....thanks for having us. It was great...but the night was not over until some drinks were had and gear brought back into to the hotel room.

Tommorrow, we set out back home to NYC. Alot was realized in this micro-tour....most importantly assured us to keep pushing on...this little dream...this little fantasy...that we call music.

Goodnight

Micro Tour: Day One

Departure: 2:20pm
Arrival: 6:40
Where: Syracuse, Funk n Waffles
Mood: Tired, excited
Highlights: Perplexing, Walter, Tequilas, Bjork wannabes, and the one and only Ana

Funk n Waffles; not quite a music venue and not quite a coffee shop.....we were a bit hesitant that our sound would not be translated well in such a venue, but it nevertheless did. We played to the locals that gave us much needed support and attention.

Had but a mere plain Waffle......covered in enough syrup to wet 20 pancakes......nothing but sweet, sweet sugar in our empty stomachs.

Later at night, we were held captive by a certain individual who took us uptown, downtown, and after numerous rounds of shots of tequila, we found ourselves defeated and more perplexed than Perplex itself. His mission was accomplished, Syracuse was indeed an interesting place and we promised to come back and give him a ring when we do and if we do.....oh Syracuse.

Discovered interesting record shop in downtown, made a mental note to stop by tommorrow morning to pick up some much needed good music for our ride onto our next stop.

Dutch ovens were awaiting us in the hotel room, not only to warm our cold bodies but also our spirits, with laughter, with drunkkard laughter that kept us up into the wee wee hours.

Life on the road.....such beautiful disarray.

Much love to the people of Syracuse and Bitch Cassidy thanks for having us.

Ohhh....Its Been A While

One Halloween Show/Party now in the distant past......we move so over close to our tour of the great upstate New York. Lots of particulars to take care of and lots of caring to be particular about....stocking up on beloved DI boxes being one of them.

Pick up van in JFK
Pick up Band Mates in Manhattan
Get Ass Up to Syracuse in Record Time
Play Show
Have a few Waffles
Go to Sleep
Wake Up
Visit the Niagara Falls
Try to Learn Lyrics to New Song
Set Up
Play Show
Drink
Sleep
Drive


That sums up our next few days......I will let you know how close to this prediction we come.

No fighting boys and girls.......
Syracuse and Buffalo.

Goodbye CMJ....Till We, If We'll Meet Again

And with a flash CMJ is over....almost too quickly and almost too slowly......there was a lot of music to digest at one time, but a decent time had by all.

For all those out there thinking about submitting your application to CMJ next year.....don't...
Connections...
Network.....
Just some clues here.....take them as you will.....
...sadly, truly, and definitely.

Some shows were attended during the week......Yeasayer....www.myspace.com/yeasayer where a standout.....good energy and vibe.....at the Music Hall of Williamsburg during their set.

Wish those guys best of luck as they continue their upward trajectory...

Hi, Can I Get You Some Waffles with a Generous Portion of Strawberries?

One stop on our upstate New York tour has been fully confirmed as of today and this is at Funk N Waffles in Syracuse. We will be performing with Ashley Cox and Perplex. Visit, www.funknwaffles.com for more info. Thankyou to Bitch Cassidy and Ashley Cox for getting us in there, we are looking forward to having an interesting show with you guys!

Two more cities yet still waiting to see if they will go through, Rochester and Buffalo.

Exhaustion slows our thinking down, have multiple identies all competiting for some of my time. Trying to balance it all. The mixing endeavor of our EP continues on.......hopefully, coming to a very, very, near and fast approaching end. We are not rushing things as we want it to sound the best and truest to what we invision as possible. Of course, musicians always struggle to articulate exactly what we hear in our minds, so, compromises have to be made in the end.......but not without a good fight first. :)

No myspacing today....quite tired of it actually at the moment. Will check in later.

New Promotional Items Please

We've got our limited supply of postcards and sample CD's ready for our upcoming shows. A taste of things to come. Random sample, measurement error, variables, and chocolate stuffed croissants, this is the life. Band on brief hiatus, a certain restlessness may or may not be taking over our bodies....we dont want to miss a thing, especially our 15 seconds.

Patience a virtue.
Virtue a pain in the arse.

I think I will go ahead and eat my chocolate croissant. Speakers on computer not working, thus not able to listen to our fellow myspace bands. Been a few weeks and 2 days since a band from myspace caught my attention, via my random selection......ah.....my research design professor would be proud.

Can I get a C, Can I get a M, can I get a J?

C-M-J

thats right, we were selected by the grace of something, someone, someplace, somehow to play the CMJ Deli Magazine Showcase Tuesday, 10/27 at the Delancey, 11:30pm.

It was completely unexpected and we are forever grateful to the something, someone, someplace, somehow, that even put our name into this event.

We promise to make it a good one......and if you ever fancy going into work the next morning shit-faced and tired....then please have a late night with us and come on out.

Speak to you before then.
