Space Chords Reunion

Well folks, what we thought would never happen happened. The Space Chords Reunion became a reality last night. A rocking crowd welcomed the band back at the Ortega arena. The band went through some old numbers and also introduced a new sound with Pav Wilkinson swapping his bass for a cello. The show was a smashing success and proved that the Space Chords are still a force to be reckoned with.
The Band is apparently working on a new album that will incorporate Pav's cello playing.

After the show I was able to have an interview with Lead guitarest Morgan Smith.

hotair : Its good to see you guys play again. After all this time, how did you decide to get back together?
MS : Mainly because Pav is back from the east coast. He moved there in 2002 and we had our farewell concert at that time. Now that he's moved back, the Chords are back in business.
hotair : How did it feel to play again after such a long break.
MS : great! It was very easy to just start up again. We played for so many years our songs are just etched into our brains.
hotair : You're not tired of the old songs?
MS : Yes and no. I like to play the old ones. There's history in them and thats fun. But we do want to write some new material.
hotair : We heard that there is an album in the works.
MS : Yes. Its just an idea now. We want to write 3 to 4 songs each and combine them to make a great album. Pav will weave the cello into his songs. It should be a very good album.
hotair : We are all looking forward to it. Thank you for taking the time to talk.
MS : The Chords always like to keep the fans informed.
