Music really tests me at times :-/

We had a band rehearsal last night. Well more meeting than a rehearsal.

I had to make the point that I need to give 3 RC until the end of the year and then reassess things. To be honest, the country/folk side project will soon become THE project for me soon, as I really enjoy that acoustic side of things. Unfortunately, the days of us doing rock sets is out the window. We did it to death and it got us nowhere. I also can't be doing with dealing with stroppy teenagers anymore at gigs, as that's who we invariably play with when doing that type of show. 3 RC may do a couple of electric sets in the remainder of this year but that's not a sound I wish to revisit.

Russell and I have found it fairly easy to get acoustic gigs but band shows seem few and far between. Thats partly due to the fact that a lot of decent local venues have closed down. And our acoustic band sound is quite rare so I think some promoters don't know how to deal with us. We go down really well thug every time we play so I don't get why we aren't getting offered better shows. When we played at the fishpond recently in Matlock, we got a great reception and a woman who watched us said we were far too good to be playing somewhere like that. Tell us about it love!!

3 RC may try something different, I don't know. But R and I are concentrating on this "side project" and we will have to come up with a new name which is not easy. The two of still want to get somewhere with this so a re launch and a new sound and direction may get us into places where we've been ignored so far. And I just need a new beginning.

We have some awesome new songs on top of the ones we have also played live that will blow peoples socks off so I have to keep positive. And fuck the doubters they are "soul less cunts" TM R Meek!

Keep rockin people
