California Fans

[Blade Dancer]

We have practices once a week for 3 hours, because people are coming from as far away as South Orange County... Plus a lot of us are married and have kids, so too many evenings away doesn't really work.

As for how often we perform, it varies all over the place. We mostly do Ren Faires close to LA, though we also usually do a few weekends of the NorCal Ren Faire. Our "home" Faire is the one in Irwindale in April and May, but we'll do Escondido, usually. This year we also did one in Yuma, Arizona, oddly enough. :laugh:

That is pretty sweet. When is that cd coming out? ~__^

 

[Blade Dancer]

April or May, probably. There were a few songs that are going to be redone so much that other instruments need to record before I can get anything down there with the bass. And at least one that we haven't touched since I took up the instrument, so I know it just fine vocally, but can't play it worth beans. :laugh:

 

[Valkyrie]

And what if I may ask; is that instrument? Well in any case, I would like to see your group perform live on stage. Let me know when you have the band's schedule ready for next year. :3

 

[Blade Dancer]

I'm the bassist of the group. I got it in March, performed for the first time with the group in April. Needless to say, I'm not that great at it. I don't even own a bow.

We're pretty well-known in California in the Ren Faire "circle"... Otherwise, not so much. But hmm, sample tracks, huh. *digs*

Well, you can hear bits and pieces of the stuff on this site... I'm only on the latest one, because I haven't been in the band long enough to be in the others. And the next cd, I'll be playing bass as well as just singing.

Heh, I certainly hope so! Haven't been able to the last couple of years because I've been working, but now that I don't work at a Starbucks *on* the parade route anymore, I can actually sit and watch it again! Yay!

 

[Milky Rose]

Lucky you, Blade Dancer.

I only get to watch it on TV ^^;;

It helps that it's my hometown.

I don't know anyone on the Rose Court this year... Though one of the princesses in the last couple of years was a girl I used to babysit. x_x
