Title: Brief detour from reminiscing ... Post by: Bob Barrows on February 07, 2008, 02:25:34 PM ... much as I love hearing about the old days. ;D
Have you started rehearsing with Whippersnapper yet? I can tell you news of the reunion was met with joy in these parts. Has the "chemistry" among you rekindled yet, or are you still in the stage of trying to nail down the songs? As a non-musician, I've always wondered how that works. Do you simply start jamming until eventually an arrangement everyone likes develops ("ooh, that's nice - let's keep that bit!" "that line doesn't really work, does it")? or does one of you act as the arranger of a song and guide the rehearsals in that direction? Will Lazarus remain a going concern?
