The Jordan Emmans Band: First Official Gig

Hello Everyone! I realize that this is a little dated, but it took me time to create this post. Hopefully it will be done before we're back from Canada. Maybe not. We'll see. Anyway, last Saturday I finally got back on stage for real. For something other than a jam session planned at the last minute. This was pro man. We even had a set list. Anyway, Matt Amond, who is an adept songwriter in his own right, was kind enough to help fill out our sound on the electric guitar. He also did a set of his own by himself before the rest of the band filed in, just to give the rabid fans some relief.



After his solo set, Dan, Jordan and I joined in to complete the Matt Amond Band. We played a few covers and some of Matt's gems (like Spin, which is a funky little tune, and Shine, which is a catchy pop/rock song).

Then started the main event of the evening, The Jordan Emmans Band. We played most of Jordan's songs that we had worked on, with both Jordan and Matt playing electric guitar, and jammed on more than one of the songs. More than once we had spontaneous little sessions, where Dan would kick out a groove, and I'd play something over top, and all of a sudden heads are bobbing along. So we went with a couple of them and just had ourselves a little jam. Very fun and quite musical, too.





So this will, with any luck, be a regular thing for us, jamming and gigging, after Dawn and I get back from the Land of the Morning Tim Horton's. And hopefully we can get something recorded to remember it by. Or to sell to the throngs of fans lining up to hear us.
