October 21, 1999: |
The boys have been looking for a new name for about a
year. After exhausting about every possibility, and
having gained some notoriety as 'Cornerstone', I think
they have decided to not change it. Watch this
space for future developments though (being musicians,
they change their collective mind a lot). If you
have any ideas for a name, feel free to post it in Graffiti
Corner. |

No, I didn't fall off the face of the earth. So
much has happened so quickly that there has been precious
little time to keep you updated. This is the short
version: It all started with the departure of
guitarist Kevin Jenson after the May 15th Paradise Club gig.
Kevin wanted to spend less time in bars (can't hold that
against him). This set in motion a re-grouping
effort that has turned Cornerstone kind of
sideways. Jeff moved out from behind the drums to
play guitar. Drum duties have been placed in the
very capable hands of Kevin McGavin. They
started looking for a keyboard player, and at the July
gig at Karen's, John
Lopiccolo (yes, the former conductor of the Idaho
Falls Symphony) did a great job on keys, especially since
he only had about 6 hours of rehearsal time. After
much arm-twisting, the boys were able to coerce Rod
Aho to join the band as full time keyboardist.
If you haven't heard them yet, you owe it to yourself to
check out the new 5-piece version of Cornerstone. |

Adrian, Keith & Jeff will be opening
for Ray Charles (yes, the Ray Charles).
They will be performing with the legendary Hal
Rowberry and local vocal phenom Liatt Potter
and the Diversity Trio at the inaugural concert of
the new Colonial Theater in Idaho Falls on March
13th. |

What a way to ring in 1999! The First
Night Celebration in Idaho Falls last night was a
wonderful success. It was great to feel like we were
celebrating rather than working. Thanks to everyone who
helped make this so much fun. We even enjoyed 'listening'
to the fireworks at midnight (that was some fog,
eh?). |

December 1998: |
The boys ended the year with some
momentum after winning the battle of the bands sponsored
by The Post Register. In addition to being truly
shocked and amazed, they were very pleased because this
particular contest included some extremely talented bands
and very gifted musicians. |
