Vincent Chin

Megumi wanted to cover our elders' song, "Vincent Chin" by Anomie Train.

Vincent Chin was beaten with a baseball bat on June 19, 1982, by two unemployed autoworkers in Detroit, resentful of Japan's inroads into the American automobile industry, who apparently mistook him for being Japanese. He died four days later.

New Demo - My Cat Hates My Guts

What's up, folks? Megumi has written a new tune, My Cat Hates My Guts, and we did a demo of it. It's her homage to Shonen Knife.

We're using a PRS Santana SE and a Squier Affinity Telecaster on it going into a Caline Pure Sky pedal and then into the computer (Presonus Studio One).

The amp sim VST we are using is bx_bassdude.

For drums, we are migrating from audio drum loops to using Session Drummer (which we have from the days I used to run Cakewalk Sonar). Session Drummer is a VST so we can use it in any program that uses VSTs. The loaded kit a the Led Zep kit, and the drum patterns are from Groove Monkey (Rock Essentials). It's a lot more flexible this way since we can adjust the individual hits, and we think the Led Zep kit sounds pretty good!

My Cat Hates My Guts
The 3Represents

Verse1

D                            A
My cat, she hates my guts
When I sleep she bites my butt
She pissed my clothes and made them stink
Then took a dump in the kitchen sink

Chorus

G                    A           D
But I'll always love my cat
She's really good at killing rats
The rules of home are understood
I give her food and it's all good

Bridge
Em       G          A    D     A   D

People always tell me to get a dog
and I always tell them to get a cat

F#      Em      B#m        GM7
I'm sorry, I don't trust animals who eat their own poop

Verse 2

My cat, she hates my guts
When she found me, I was down on my luck
I know she always has my back
I can show you where her claws left tracks

Chorus

G                    A           D
But I'll always love my cat
She's really good at killing rats
The rules of home are understood
I give her food and it's all good
