A-man and His Band of Merry Rockers
For the longest time, I have intended to write a post about my son’s band, For Every Day. I’m not so good at documenting the real life around me, though, and the band is such a moving target, that I have a hard time getting my head around it. The last time I posted much of anything on the band was over a year ago. They’re still together working hard, gigging, recording songs, and hoping for their big break. Let the pictures tell the story.
SXSW – 2009
Yep, gotta carry their own gear still …
An acoustic show at Seeker’s Coffee House in Hurst
Another acoustic show at Hot Topic in the Frisco Mall
At Bill’s Records in Dallas
At Six Flags in Arlington
Until I sat down to do this, I didn’t realize that most of the pictures are on another camera, but you get the point, the band is busy. I don’t always take pictures, and I don’t go to all of their gigs, but they’ve played The Door in Dallas, at churches, and at festivals also.
… here’s Alex (minus the merry band of rockers) playing at Cafe Madrid in the Bishop Arts District in Dallas. He’s shown here with one of his guitar teachers, Mike, and another of his teachers, Kevin, in the second shot, and a few others playing a little Flamenco music.

Well, we don’t know where it’s going, but it’s still going! Just about the time we think, oh man, this is going nowhere, suddenly something good happens for them. It will be interesting to see what happens over the next year, with college on the horizon.

Thanks for stopping by classicalguitarmaster … call me psychic, but I get the feeling you play guitar, too! You’re right, time will reveal, and if they don’t get the shine, it won’t be for lack of trying! Good luck to you, too!
