UPDATES
Well folks? It's April 2012...and what has been goin' on with Thomas Sparks you ask? Recording of my sophemore body of work is gonna begin in July. I have a couple or few local musicians that have agreed to help out.
The Thomas Sparks Show (My Vidcast) is on track again for the end of Spring 2012, and it can be witnessed starting in June. Sundays at 1 P.M. Pacific time, right here at tsm.com on my video streams page or you can watch at the source by making an account at www.ustream.tv.
It's free and it's fun y'all!!
Check out my upcoming shows page now and again for full details.
As far as what my bandmember line-up is? Shane Ford will be joining me for round 2 as my drummer for live appearances. It will be either John Eddy on bass, or Eric Fryar on bass and myself on guitar and vox. And a surprise or two from my old bandmates from the 90's Rick Willis and Rob Robinson!
On a side note , recently I have been vying for a job playing rythym guitar and singing backing vocals with Brad Smith (known mainly from Blind Melon fame) in his other project Abandon Jalopy. I was born for this gig...
Until we see each other again,,,I'm here America...Sincerely, Thomas
Ya know it's an omen for the year, when the first show you play is a funeral for a good friend's daughter, and as it turned out, it WASN'T my best year.
I still got around though, and the shows I DID play were all larger than the last...I played at the famous Piecora's Pizza in Seattle which saw Rob Robinson and I reunite as a duo. Then came the Relief for Japan Benefit which was a success!
I played an impromptu set out back of Gray's warehouse and had the place rockin' and hangin' onto my every word and note. There were more people out back with me than inside I think!
I also entered into a Battle of the Bands that was a learning experience to say the least. But the highlight of my year in 2011 was playing a good ole' acoustic set right here in my back yard for the neighbors,,,I had more fun that August night than I have in a long time, and it was the one show that wasn't even scheduled!
