Concert in NYC is canceled minutes before Absolute Zero's scheduled appearance due to a near riot at Inroads Theater. Security guards and audience did not agree. Auditions begin for vocalist. Aislinn Quinn, composer, keyboardist and vocalist, hears of audition from mutual friend and travels to Leominster, MA from New York City for audition with Absolute Zero. After the mandatory psychological testing and walking on water, Aislinn is accepted into the band.
Rehearsals begin with new lineup.
Aislinn moves to Massachusetts. Keith moves on to other musical ventures. Absolute Zero composes the bulk of its present-day music for performance and recording. I realized I wasn't just doing a smokin' solo. Absolute Zero reworks compositions and adds music to its concert repertoire.
