On the search for a drummer.

The BOAs are in the process of trying out new drummers to replace our beloved Jordan. We have a couple prospects, hopefully one is the right fit!
Wish us luck,

BOA

Tour Journal January '08

We just got back from a weekend trip playing shows in San Francisco and Los Angeles. 
It was our second time playing San Fran's Amnesia. The first time we had the luck of sharing the stage with the one-of-a kind Toshio. His repertoire is a virtual jukebox of classic honky tonkin' songs. He's a must see!! This time local bands The Blank Tapes and Prairie Dog joined us. A lot of old Salt Lake friends showed up and S.F.'s Diane, Amy, Michael, and Cindy were there. The turn out and music was great. 
 
Our show in L.A. was at Tangier with the awesome Leslie and the Badgers. She put so much work into the show and it turned out really well. The place was pretty upscale for BOA standards; you can only clean us up so much. Aside from the ten dollar Jameson & Cokes everything was kosher. The sound was particularly good that night. Joshua James took time away from recording to come to the show, as did Jamie's dad.
Saturday we headed south to Orange County to record a song for the www.indierockreviews.com Bionic Ear Sessions. The weather was amazing and the new song turned out really well. While half of us recorded the other half lounged on the lawn enjoying the sun. It was a fitting moment for Jordan's farewell; his drumming is a big part of the song. Jordan will be missed and we wish him the best in his travels. 
 
February is gonna be a busy month, lots of opportunities to come to a show...hint hint. 
 
 


Love,
