June 19th 2004
Started the day with a breakfast of "mystery
meat", eggs and coffe and then we had a business meeting which
was very productive but mainly reminded me of why I love music so
much!!!
Today I wanted to finish all the basic instrumental tracks so we
could focus on getting decent reference vocals tomorrow and we got
that done. After finishing the basic guitar tracks I had time to
add the new solos to Circle of Hands and now things are really starting
to come to life.
We did have a bit of a setback today though, well, two actually.
The two musical setbacks were that the rhythm section had recorded
Sweet Freedom with a part of the third verse missing which means
we'll have to re-record the track on Tuesday and they had recorded
Weep in Silence in D minor, the key that David sang it in, instead
of B minor, the key it was written in for my voice!! Only needs
the bass track re-cut but it made for some interesting listening
as I tried to add the B3!! The technical hitch (that makes three
setbacks doesn't it??!!) was that the studio only has 8 Pro Tools
outputs which makes monitoring a problem. But we'll work around
that one too.
We finished at 8 tonight just in time to watch qualifying for the
US Grand Prix, then back to the hotel, a little more football and
bed. I like this routine though I am sure some would find it quite
boring
Next
day...
