Blue October Balance Beam

I found some great old footage ona miniDV tape while moving. It's my old band the Hermit Kings playin a gig at Interplay in Busan...sometime in 2007. We re wea bunch of ESL teachers playing in a band, several times a week. There's a definite market for foreigners who can play music and entertain in Korea! We're playing Balance Beam by Blue October. It was a good laugh. I miss you all you guys in the band :)

I am of course off to Japan in a few days. Things are bleak here weather-wise so I'd rather reflect on the past instead of dwelling on the crappy weather of present.

BTW...outta Canada in 9 days!! hehe SWEET

The Hermit Kings:
Mike Edmunds: vocals
Travis Lilley: Bass
Gino Brann: Guitar
Tom Fenton: Guitar
Kevin O'Shea: drums (that's Me)

Remember...I am a professional teacher and NOT a professional drummer. I'm a professional teacher who moonlights as a drummer...but not for money...just for beer!

Sooooo....if you dig the vid. Please COMMENT/RATE and most certainly....SUBSCRIBE!!!!

Very cool... where did you guys practice? Or were gigs enough practice? Did you have a hard time finding a handful of other decent American/Canadian musicians?

My fiance and I are planning on teaching in Seoul next May after we're both out of school and married, and I'd love to find some guys to jam with. On a semi-related note, do you have any personal experience with or comments about YBM? Thanks, Bob
