Hello Bloomers,
I just wanted to share some very exciting news on the bass player front as well as share with you how the BuzzFest and After Party went.
1st, I have to express my extreme delight in announcing my new prop page on the Warwick Bass web page. Click Andy's Warwick page I have been using the Warwick basses for almost 10 years now and if you have ever seen us live, you know what I mean when I say it has an amazing "growl". I'm very pumped to be a part of their team.
2nd, just to give you a heads up on how the BuzzFest shows went. Even though the weather didn't cooperate while we played and it drizzled the whole time (still trying to resuscitate the Marshall plexi that got wet since there was no cover on the stage, rest it's soul), we were able to pull off a killer rock show and the crowd came out and didn't disappoint...THEN, over to the Rock Bar to play, what some would say, one of Manic Bloom's best and shining shows to date! If you missed it, believe me, it was incredible and we will have many more like it. We learned a ton.
As always, please come by and say hi at our next show, which is this Friday at Toasted Toad in Murfreesboro or if you can't come, be ready to catch us on the road soon, as the Fall is starting to pick up quickly with touring out of Nashville area. You can alway catch us on Monday night live on Manic Monday as well on Ustream.com
WE LOVE YOU ALL AND KEEP US INFORMED ON YOUR BLOOMAGE!

PS...I took this shot after we were done playing at BuzzFest...the Nashville skyline looked amazing behind the stage.

Those pictures are SICK. Loved hearing you guys as I pulled up to Buzzfest - great show despite everything!
Gotta admit, I liked your Bogner tone better. It was nice. Sorry about the loss though :\
