Hey guys,

A bunch of good stuff is going at Musicology these days, what do you expect with a bunch of creative people hanging out daily talking about music and how to help make things better for our students?

Anyway, we just wrapped up a super-fun School of Rock part III. Our concert was last Friday and we had a good turnout of people coming out supporting the 3 bands:”The Shortbus Bullies” featuring: David Shulman: guitar/vocals, Joey Kinney: guitar, Thomas Harbaraugh: bass/vocals and Jordan Fink: guitar/vocals. “Too Good, Too Bad” featuring: Jim Hensel:guitar, Vic Edwards:guitar, and lastly, “Subprime” featuring: Nati B: guitar/vocals, Phil Basile: guitar/lead vocals, Kyle Kuehne: lead guitar, and Geoff: drums. A CD is currently being mixed of the 3 bands day in the studio. We will try to post their hard musical work on our site. Special kudos goes out to Jeff Wragg and Joey Legrand for all their hard work teaching all these shredders in the making!

Our next School of Rock part IV will start this January 2009. So start signing up for that if you are interested. These SOR classes are a great way to speed up the rate of learning if you like to take your music to the next level! Please call for information. Playing with other people is such a fun rush so make your move!
