Today’s gig Under the Bridge!

Had a fantastically fun time today at our live gig in Lionheart! There were a couple hiccups, like at one point when I just forgot how Baj’s Reel went for a second, so we started over. And there were a few trips over lyrics here and there. All in all, though, we kicked ass. Xavion … Continue reading »

So many kinds of pissed.

I might just give up on OL altogether. Yeah, I know, here comes the fuckload of vulture comments. Fucking save them, I don’t want to play in your grid either. Tomorrow’s my last day at my RL job, and my RL boss has decided to take the opportunity to maintain control over me one last … Continue reading »

Don’t know if you’ve seen it yet…

But I’ve decided to make a blog for my OL shop after all. Looks like I picked the right time to get the hell out of Dodge*. I’d made this decision before the XStreet “roadmap” was announced; this just confirms that it’s the right time. *I got a million of ‘em. Hope you’re not sick … Continue reading »

No outpouring? Good.

I’ve gotten a handful of really thoughtful IMs from folks who have enjoyed Cat Agus Cu over the months, mostly expressing sadness that we’re retiring from playing in SL but simultaneously expressing sympathy for our doing so. Part of my ego was hoping for an outpouring of outrage and gnashing of teeth at our decision, … Continue reading »

Wait, what?!

Excuse me, but… WHAT?! This apparent authority on the music in SL business is under the impression that it’s the artists trying to make a living who are to blame for… whatever it is he’s blaming for. An apparent “crisis”. If there is a crisis in SL music, it was largely created by the artists. … Continue reading »

No Nay Never No More Will We Play the Wild Rover

So, I dunno. After tonight there’s a part of me that seriously wonders what the hell the point is. Not of life in general, I’m past that stage; not SL, I’ve made peace with the fact that there is no point. No, what I’m talking about is playing music in SL. Though the more I … Continue reading »

Just don’t call us Angus.

I have to kind of chuckle that a lot of people spell our band’s name “Cat Angus Cu”. I’m sure lots of the time it’s a typo; your hands just kind of make the word that feels more familiar. But just for the sake of clarification, we have neither a Scotsman nor a cow in … Continue reading »
