| About jsdunnmusic Julian began writing songs that were good. Good enough to consider forming a band. But where would he find band mates? The only 2 good drummers he knew were in bands. Then he met Alesis on harmony-central.com personals. It changed his life. A drummer that took no time to set up, followed his changes, and would always be there? Awesome. The Spectral Presence is the name they chose. The spectres involved are not evil and should never be mistaken to be. They are not even technically ghosts, but don't tell them that- it hurts their feelings. They are Phantoms, just like a phantom leg. Something that is there that isn't. |
