Oooo it's been a while... but we have good news. This CD is almost done!
it's true... as of the last entry in this blog it seems we had just finished the EP. Well, lots of time has past and lots of sessions were done since then... we are now on the cusp of finishing all of it. As of now, one more vocal track needs to be done by Jeff, and i am putting final tweaks on the mixes. I'm also doing little tidbits of "bonus" tracking.... for example, it was requested (begged and pleaded) by one friend who gave me the Stagemaster guitar (see pic) that i use it on something. Ok, no problem.



Also (this is a good one); my friend Matt told me a story about how when he was in grade school he was asked on the night of a recorder recital by the band director "not to play at all, just move your fingers". I guess he was so bad the teacher did not want him to ruin the 3rd grader performance... as if that were really possible in the first place. He wanted to know if i could record him playing the recorder on "anything on the CD" so that he could mail a copy to his old teacher with a note attached saying something to the effect of "Eat It Mrs. Acosta!!". So we had him over on monday and worked hard on figuring out how to fit one hell of an out of tune plastic whistle into one of the songs. Check 'em out:
