These Days

Does anyone have any info on this band? I was big into them in the early 90's when they released the cd "Carnival." They played Ric guitars and the cd inlay has a pic of them with one. I just dusted off the cd and listened to it and suddenly realized these guys are awesome again. Can't find any info about them on the internet. The record company and publishing company listed on the cd do not exist. The only thing I could find was the recording studio where they recorded the cd. I sent them an email asking about them. Anyone else heard of them?

Actually, I'm in a band with the drummers brother, who played bass with them for a while. They all live in Chicago if I remember. One guitar player is in a band called Box O Car, and the drummer Randy,(who I know), is in a band called Cisco Pike.

Okay, I had band practice last night and got the low down. The guitar player for the band I'm in (Ten Minute Vision), played lead on that album. The rhythm guitar player did play a Ric. Along with the drummer from These Days, he now plays rhythm and fronts the band Cisco Pike. The bass player and singer moved back to Washington.

Love this board. Thanks for the intel. The cd is really kick ***. I wish they would have done more. So is the lead singer in a band in Washington? Does Cisco Pike or your band have a similar sound? Do you have a website with some files to listen to? I got a response back from Kitty Tatman at Catamount Studios. She didn't say much. She mentioned she thought they were students at the U of Iowa, but lost touch with them. Tell your guitar player at least one person is still listening to These Days' cd. Thanks again for the info.

Just did a search and found your website and Cisco Pike's. Good stuff. Actually, you can hear a little These Days'esque on the Pike stuff. I sent a msg to them on their website. Too bad none of you guys are in Boston.

Andy(TMV guitarist), and Randy(drummer in Cisco), both thought it was way cool that someone remembered These Days. They also happen to be brothers.
