The Trials of Rehearsal: Battery Woes & Show Prep
Rehearsals for Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band are always an adventure, but this time, we learned a valuable lesson—not all batteries are created equal!
To save costs, we use cheaper batteries for wireless microphones during practice, reserving the higher-quality ones for live performances. This time, we grabbed a couple of packs from Dollar Tree, hoping they’d last at least one full rehearsal. Well… they didn’t. These bargain batteries barely lasted 30 minutes to an hour before dying on us. Lesson learned! We’ll finish using the ones we bought, but next time, we’ll invest in better budget-friendly alternatives.
For comparison, our good batteries last about five hours, so in perspective, an hour from the cheap ones isn’t the worst—but still not ideal for uninterrupted rehearsals.
Despite the minor hiccups, we’re gearing up for an exciting live show on Clapper (depending on internet and signal strength). Catch Advocatus Diaboli, Shamshini, and the animatronic trio—Spliff, Roach, and Blunt—bringing their supernatural sound to life!
📍 Mini Red Velvet Underground, Albuquerque
📅 Sunday’s Show – March 16th
Stay tuned and join us for a hauntingly unforgettable night of music!

Off-Grid Challenges, Campground Life, and a Unique Animatronic Band You Don’t Want to Miss!
**Balancing Off-Grid Living, Campground Life, and the Band**
As winter lingers, each day brings a touch more daylight, but our lives remain packed with activity. Between managing the campground, handling the weather’s unpredictable nature, and juggling personal commitments, things have been anything but quiet.
Our campground has been bustling with campers, weather preparations, and engaging with our growing membership community. The off-grid lifestyle demands constant attention to ensure everything runs smoothly, from solar maintenance to accommodating guests in changing conditions.
Meanwhile, the spotlight is on **Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band**, as we gear up for an exciting performance this Sunday at **Juno Brewery in Albuquerque**. With the band’s unique blend of music, humor, and animatronic theatrics, this show promises to be unforgettable. Preparing for a performance like this involves countless hours of rehearsals, refining timing, and ensuring every detail aligns for an exceptional experience.
As we juggle these aspects of life, we are reminded of why we chose this path—living authentically, embracing challenges, and sharing creativity with our community. If you’re in Albuquerque this weekend, come out and join us for an evening of boundary-pushing entertainment!
**Stay tuned for updates and insights from our off-grid adventures and band performances.**
