The Band Meme

I found this meme over at Heather's blog and decided to give it a go. Here's how it goes:

You are about to have your own band's CD cover. Follow these directions to the letter.

1. Click here for a Random article

The first article title on the page is the name of your band.

2. Click here for a Random quote

The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your album.

3. Click here for a Random picture

The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4. Use your graphics program of choice to throw them together.

The original meme is over at Mimi Writes if you want to grab the code. Consider this a tag if you want to play.

Who is Ryan Craig?

Well, in my mind he looks like Jonas Armstrong from BBC's Robin Hood. We'll make him an East Coast musician from the Halifax area. Since I'm supposed to be in this band, I'll be back-up vocals to his lead vocals. We've also got a guitarist, a bass player, drums and keyboards. We've got a classic east coast sound - celtic-flavored rock with an alternative spin.


Let's make a dream band for Ryan Craig, shall we?


On back-up vocals - yours truly.
















On lead guitar - Charlie A'Court.
















On bass - Andy Patil

from Matt Mays and El Torpedo














On drums - Murray Downey

from The Carson Downey Band









On keyboards - Peter Elkas







from Joel Plaskett Emergency

I've decided to take this a little farther and make up a list of tracks that would be on the CD. After twenty years together, we're going a little nostalgic on this CD, re-doing the covers that were a staple of our early bar scene years. Enjoy!
