Shot here with the first ever blog. Yes we’re doing that. we are harnessing every facet of this thing we call internet to bring our brand of rock, humor, and awesomeness to our fan(s). That being said every blog will be followed with the “shameless plug” section. emails, websites, youtube videos and the such will be at the end of every blog so you people with the ADHD (you know who you are) won’t have any excuses for not knowing where to get your daily dose of Shot.

Well, let’s begin.

First I’d like to welcome the latest addition to the Shot family. Yusuke just had his first show with us last night at Desmond’s Tavern and he was amazing. Straight from Michigan, Japan, Yusuke has definitely brought something to the Shot sound and presence. From the first time he walked in and jammed with us, we knew he was the guy. Since the inception of Shot, finding a permanent bass player has been problematic. We’ve heard good bass players, bad bass players, bass players with personal problems, bass players with impersonal problems, but like a musical samurai, Yusuke sliced through every song we threw at him and learned them all in record time. So next time you see Shot live, walk up to the japanese guy, tell him hes awesome, and take a shot with him.

Now that we have a permanent bassist ::fingers crossed:: A lot of things are on the horizon for Shot. The songs for the first album “Impregnated by Rock” are finished and the album is forthcoming. There’s been talk of merchandising, merchandising, merchandising, where Shot makes the real money. T shirt ideas have been thrown around among other things. So be on the lookout and save some of those hard earned clams for your chance to support us.

Speaking of pregnancies, The Impregnated by Rock tour continues on November 6 when we make our third appearance at R bar. There’s already a buzz going into this show because R bar is a good place to play at and its on a friday this time so you guys NEED to come to this show, get drunk, and listen to some real rock from some real guys. The shows been dubbed “R bar 3: Son of R bar” so expect some familiar faces from the first two appearances to reemerge. and remember people, in the third movie of a trilogy, all bets are off. Someone from the Shot band will be….MURDERED!

Shot will be having a practice tomorrow night, tightening up any loose ends like a woman going to a liposuction clinic.

Now with every blog, we will try to add in a specialty segment, sometimes related to the band, sometimes not. For the first specialty segment we are recommending a movie. It could be seen as a love story. It could be seen as a romantic comedy. We just see it as a great movie in the history of cinema. That movie…Deadgirl. Heres the official website for the movie deadgirlmovie.com If you dont know about the movie, here are a couple of key words: zombies, prisoner, rape, necrophilia. I can already see by the look on your face that you realize why we like this movie.

and with that ends the first installment of what will hopefully be a continuing correspondence between Shot and our fan(s). be sure to check back daily for your latest dose of Shot. You don’t know when the Shot will hit.
