Training Ground:

"It was the second edition of the video game 'Guitar Hero' that inspired Eastep to pick up real musical instruments. The timing that the game demands helped him speed through learning instruments, he said."

I was looking over some of the Rock Band forums to see reactions to 3 Dimes Down and here are some samples. DBT got lots of mentions on there and almost everything was positive."

Lauderdale

New Lineup, new record and more things coming.... - lauderdale MySpace Blog:

"So it's 2009 and we've been pretty low key for a few months now.
The band has been rehearsing and recording with what I believe to be our strongest lineup to date. Along with Daniel's addition as second guitarist last year, we've recently added Ben Tanner on keys and Chris James (former Sons of Roswell) on bass. These guys both bring so much to the table and are valuable assets to the band. Lauderdale is a 5-piece band for the first time. I think it's safe to say I speak for everyone involved when I say that the new sound is better than ever. Tracking on the second album started last week and was a very pleasant experience. Because we all have jobs, school and families this will more that likely be a slow moving process. We will hopefully be able to put the record out early this summer. We'll keep you posted for sure. In the meantime, keep an eye on our show schedule, as we are planning on coming to your town this summer. We've added a few dates and will be adding lots more very soon.

and don't forget we've got several live shows available for free download at archive.org. Thanks Russ, for putting those out there!"

Muscle Shoals Sound

Local music history documentary on tap | TimesDaily.com | Florence, AL:

"Muscle Shoals - Filmmaker Wallace Sears wants to go back to the beginning and create an accurate account of how the Shoals became a mecca of sorts for recording artists.

Sears, a former executive with Alabama Public Television and owner of In The Family Productions, is in the pre-production stages of a documentary tentatively titled 'Sweet Home Alabama - The Music of Muscle Shoals.'

'We will be concentrating on the '60s and '70s, when things really started and took off,' Sears said.

The full-length film will be geared toward a theatrical release and is being produced through a partnership with the Alabama Music Hall of Fame."
