So, I'm in this band with my friend Oscar.. we both play guitar and freshman year we both lived in the dorms, so we would have little "jam sessions" every now and then.. so somehow we started discussing what some cool band names would be, and we were both taking CS61A at the time, and there in a footnote of the textbook was the answer.. mutual exclusion! ok, actually i originally thought that mutex would be a cool name, but then Sarah pointed out that it sounded like a feminine hygiene product for mutants so we decided to go with the unabbreviated term.. and that is the story of how mutual exclusion was created.
so yeah, our band still consists of only me and Oscar.. if you play the drums or bass, please feel free to join us (we are situated in the Berkeley area).. or if you haven't actually played the drums or bass before, go ahead and buy yourself the instrument and join us (I'm the veteran band member with 3 whole years of guitar playing experience)
email us! mutex@terr.com
We play mostly just for fun, as a creative outlet, and also of course for our legions of anonymous internet fans, hope you enjoy the music!
Mutual Exclusion is:
me - acoustic & electric guitar (I will make
my singing debut soon! ... maybe)
Oscar - vocals & lead electric guitar
Oscar in the "studio" recording Different Like You (acoustic) Here's us at our first concert-in-Oscar's-livingroom Oscar and me sitting around on our amps Me playing slide guitar Oscar ripping out a solo Pictures from the field trip we took to a guitar show
These are all original songs spawned out of the brains of Mutual Exclusion (well, mostly Oscar's brain)
