in the studio

My band spent six hours yesterday in a studio in Austin. One of our friends had a recording project to take care of so he invited us to be his guinea pigs. We spent the entire six-hour block recording one song. Don’t ask me how, but suffice to say some bands spend that same amount of time making sure the snare drum sounds just right. Pictures are here. An added bonus of the recording session was the knowledge that my band was recording in a studio that Willie Nelson, Sublime, and Kenny Wayne Shepherd recorded in. Cool.

Something very exciting happened on the way to Austin. My 1995 Accord hit the 100,000-mile mark. I pulled over and snapped a picture. Ignore the “MAINTENANCE REQUIRED” light. It automatically went on at 75,000…

it's a six-hour opus to the glory that is poppy punk rock. chances are, based on my knowledge of what you like, you probably won't like it. lyrcial content is the usual girls-and-beer schtick but the music is more melodically intricate. i will nonetheless post the finished product when i get it. the guy who recorded us has the song and will probably spend a few hours mixing it over the next couple weeks. ps: for the punk fans out there, it's got a Face To Face-ish vibe.

skorloff:

was your six-hour song any good? ie, would i like it?

p-man:

thanks, and yes, it was changed.

skorloff:

congrats on the 100k - did you replace your timing belt at 75k?
