Ok... Tomorrow we get started. To give you a quick idea of what goes on, it starts out simple. I go in... I'm instantly confused. I must try to extract every abstract concept from my brain and then see if I can get it onto tracks.
Funny... It was supposed to rain which is why I was going up Saturday morning... But I may as well stick with the plan. It's better to be refreshed in the morning than to be wiped in the Friday night into the overnight.
I'm not ready for this. This whole kitten business has really messed things up in that right. I mean... Sure...it's a good thing that I saved them, but it couldn't have happened at a worse time. Maybe it's a test of my resolve and dedication... Maybe it's just trying to see if I can handle a little stress.
So...90% unprepared, I go into record without the thought of how to get the mojo to flow. Maybe it's a "go with the flow" thing. I don't know. Maybe it's supposed to come together like the times I feel I'm channeling some dead musicians through my nontalented fingers. I have no idea. All I know is that this is it. I just don't want to come back hating it like I did the first run.
Meanwhile... Here's another pic of my life in the unglamorous world of demo recording:
