On Tips, ADD, and "who was that guy?"
Yesterday was LOOONG day in the studio. It was fun, and we got some stuff done. Some songs (esp. God of Wonders) ended up pretty rough, as the drum track wasn't as "on" as we originally thought...we couldn't sync up the bass and guitar to match it exactly, so hopefully Big John can throw some duct tape on the recording and fix it up. Overall, though, it was a fun experience...lots of moments of much laughter.
John must have studio ADD, though. I don't know how many times we sat there for..."minutes"... while he hooked up some other contraption we wound up not using. Oh, well... his offering us the time is very much appreciated.
I fixed my AB snafu...WOOT! Maybe I could've just let it go and recovered next time. But, I don't want an angry waitress next time I go. Besides, a lot of people might have let that kind of thing go. But what kind of character would that show? Hopefully, correcting simple mistakes like that in life instead of writing them off can let people know that all the stuff we claim to believe is very real to us...and...hopefully, will allow us to build friendships with people that allow us to explore spiritual issues as well as blah blah about weather, dating, food, music, etc...
We all met someone new at the studio yesterday. Meet Kyle # 3. Remember, Kyle # 1 is the practical, Sentra-driving, will "retire at 40" guy most of us are familiar with. And Kyle # 2 is the 240SX driving, "I'll blow $10,000" on a guitar but not a DVD player guy we also know. But Kyle # 3 is new (at least to our band, it was). The image: Kyle sitting on a stool in a wife beater...hits a wrong note...followed by a loud, drawn out expletive followed by yet another comment to...well, I won't go there. And this kind of thing happened on more than one occasion. This is the new Kyle. This Kyle needs a mullet and an '85 Mustang GT with faded paint and leaky t-tops. Instead of the Kyle who takes pictures 5 feet from girls OR the kyle who actually "talks to her," this is the Kyle we're all expecting to say, "hey, woman...bring me my beer, and while you're at it, hit the TV...the signal's all screwed up and I can't watch wrestling."
Seriously, I jest. I'm glad he was able to make it to the studio Saturday since he seems to work more on weekends with video stuff than he does during the week at Boeing...LOL.
An Asian with a mullet...hehe...what a startling image...
