Well club season is upon us and the summer has certainly gone away quickly! REPLICA underwent quite the changes this past summer with the departure of founding drummer Todd and then Carl leaving labor day week-end.......both are still very much members of the family and missed, and both will continue to perform with REPLICOUSTIC and SEPARATE WAYS.......but sometimes drastic change is needed to put a spark into something. The addition of Jeremy "the hammer" VanLaanen on drums and vocals has done just that for REPLICA!!! Anyone who has seen the band since July when Jeremy joined has hopefully noticed the addtional spark that he brings to the stage. We are having a blast.....and continuing to gel with each and every gig.
The Outpost is a club in Sherwood Wisconsin Just a bit east of Appleton/Kaukauna. What a great place. Excellent staff made for a very enjoyable experience on our first time in. Brian along with Sasha and Deanna kept up with the crowd and kept there glasses full all night....as well as a few fill-ups for Jeremy which were handled by Brian himself. One of the bright spots is that the new material is being very well recieved. See we have always wanted to be a bit different. We like to do material that other bands shy away from, and people rarely get to hear live........Kashmir by Zeppelin is going over exceptionally well as are Jane by Starship and Feels Like the First Time by Foreigner!! Jeremy had one demand upon his joining the band or rather his wife had one demand and that was the he continue to sing Dream On by Aerosmith. Well it has been a smashing success for us. If you've been waiting for some reason to get out and see the band, stop waiting....lots of new material and fun is coming!!!!!
