Sorry we've been so quiet of late. We really have been up to our necks in it on this new album.
Lots of hard work - early mornings/late nights etc -sharing of rehearsal files etc etc.
The good news is that the first step we are good to go for - which is the upload of all the track structures, click and guide tracks and indeed the bulk of my keyboard parts,
which I've prepped up in my own home-based studio. Yep - after all that hard work, I'll turn up to the recording studio next Weds pm with an HD which is only slightly bigger than a passport, and off we jolly well go, in readiness for our first day of recording as a band on the 7th February.
Now all I have to do is make sure I don't lose that HD....
(but yes - I have backed it up - just in case!!!)
I've got to say - it's all getting rather exciting. We've gone for a Country & Western/line dancing vibe for this album, and I must say those check shirts, cowboy hats and general thigh-slapping are really getting us all going. And we're all getting used to chewing straw while we're singing - which is nice.
And if you believed that - then heaven help us.
