5/7/2005 - Pandora

I guess I was supposed to know that Pandora, who I am replacing, had overdosed and died, but I didn't. It led to an embarrassing scene yesterday when I asked what must have seemed a bit of an insensitive question about her during a break.

She was Chrysilla's special friend and she found Pandora, so there were tears yesterday. Apparently some cranks have been connecting the suicide to the depressing Jonestown stuff on the Exotika CD, and there have even been rumours that fans have been offing themselves to the music, so the band don't play these ones any more. Actually I thought they were quite good, but Exotika is only 3 tracks, each about 25 minutes, which is well unusual, and would be wrong for a live gig.

Now I'm into the music a bit, it's less hectic. Nothing complicated in the chord sequences, lots of opportunities for clever bass runs if I'm quick. The rehearsals have been a bit boring for the other girls because they know most of the stuff I'm learning.  I've got all four albums on my (new) iPod, and listen to them all the time, even the Jonestown ones.
