Hello.
Here are some updates: Practice today went well, we recorded a few songs and took a few pictures. they will be up soon.
We are going to practice a little more then were going to start booking some shows, bars, nothing big time. But I promise that our shows will be an experance that you’ll never forget. We have some crazy ideas, so were looking for some crazy fans and this all will work out perfectly.
I relised something today that me, rick, and mike all listen to a lot of music, have of our music we all listen to the same bands, and the other half we each have our own style and our own set of bands that we like. I think thats how we come together so well as a band, we just rock, with style thats so different and thats so the same. We are The Belts.

If you know of a photoprapher that would like to take some pictures of us sometime in the next few weeks while we practice and have a small photo shoot than please let me know (Leave a comment on this blog) We can get a little roudy, and there will be drinking involved. ?
Also we are getting a practice space in about 3 or 4 weeks... so we can start having a few more poeple over while we play, and well throw small shows. If anyone wants to help us build it that would be awesome, and we could use some help decorating it... posters, stickers, paint, markers, art, tagging, spray paint, wheat paste, anything goes.
In about 3 or 4 weeks well be ready to start playing a few shows or at least start planning to start booking some shows. If your in a band that sounds kind of like our style than lets book a show together.
Lets do this! Show us some support and tell us hi, make a drawing for us, take a picture of you wearinf a redickulous amount of belts and well love you forever.
I was walking and found a jesus guitar pick on the ground at starbucks. I take it as a sign to start playing the guitar more... now if I can only find some jesus drumsticks i would be in business.
Wrote a new songs yeaterday at practice, no name or lyrics yet, but an awesome beat and an amazingly awesome bass solo. This one should be finished and up soon, and when it's done you will know about it.

9:36 AM - let me tell you the story behind the song Blue Eyed Devil Girl and how our last practice went.
Category: Music
How Blue Eyed Devil Girl became a song is we were recording a few songs and inbetween songs we mess around and jam for a few minutes and this is how this came about. This song is a first take and was not planned at all, this is something you cant put a price on..
This is the belts! We flow, we have style, we make music.
Our practice was good, we recorded arsenal and punk rock girl each a few times.... we had a friend come over and help us record and it sounded great. Drank some beer, played some great music, got some pictures... it was a good day...
Later that night we injoyed some rain, thunder and lightning.
