My Band is Playing Tomorrow

We are called KEMMAN

FRIDAY MAY 30th, 9pm-ish
at the Underground Lounge
952 W Newport, in Chicago

just a few blocks from Wrigley Field, just east of Clark St.

There are two opening bands:
-Ian & the Astro Physicist
-The Psycho Kid
Kemman is playing last, so it's ok if you are a little late.

Also, we have new CD, and we'll be selling it at the show. $6. If you would like to buy a CD but can't attend the show, write me and we can arrange to get one to you. You can also purchase our CD from CD Baby, and you can download it from Amazon.com (and soon from iTunes as well).

And don't forget to check out www.kemman.com and

Songs in my Head

The Cars, "Dangerous Type"

I love it when I can imagine a song in my head and distinguish all the different parts as if I'm really hearing it. Right now, I can hear the drums, the guitars, keyboards, bass and vocals all quite clearly. Yet I have not actually heard this song in probably a few months. The chorus is designed in such a way that it begs to be repeated, and on the record, the end of the song does repeat the chorus multiple times. It's catchy, but the downside is when the song is stuck in your head, it just repeats that chorus over and over and over... The brain can never find the end of the song!

Coming soon I'll have pictures of the finished, furnished basement. But until then, I leave you with these words, "She's a lot like you, the Dangerous Type. She's a lot like you. Come on, hold me tight."

Basement 2: The Other Room

Previously, I posted some pictures of the "band" room, where my friends and I had painted some crazy designs. Since then, I've been working on painting the living room area. I had to scrap my original plans and improvise a little bit, but I think everything turned out pretty neat. Check out the pictures below. Carpet and furniture arrive on Thursday!
