"Rows Of Stone" update - February 12, 2010
"Rows Of Stone", the first song in my "Fingers To The Bone" project, is down to the final tweaking process in the studio. Almost every track except the bass guitar has been re-written and re-recorded since the original version. I had a chance to perform this song live last week for the first time. I'm looking forward to doing it again soon! With any luck, I will have the final studio version finished and up on my website in the next day or two.
Fingers to the Bone! - February 2, 2010
It's official.... I have finally launched my "Fingers to the Bone" project! My hope is to write, record, and put up on my website a new song every two weeks. I finished writing the first song today, and so far I have recorded the basic piano, strings, and drum tracks. Tomorrow I should be able to record the guitar and bass tracks, and if all goes well, get a good start on the vocals. Yeah!!!
Prospectors in Gold Bar, Wa - January 30, 2010
Just got back from another fantastic gig at Prospectors in Gold Bar, Wa. This place is becoming one of my favorite venues, and a big "Thanks" to Chris and Tami for letting me sleep on their futon after the show. It was also nice to see my old friend Skip Hamilton too!
Studio re-wireing - January 27, 2010
I'm getting the last few things done so I can launch my "Fingers to the Bone" project. This has been on my mind for far to long, so I am excited about getting started. I spent the last several days building adaptors, running new cables, making countless solder joints, in general re-wiring my studio to accommodate all the new gear I have managed to come up with recently. I can't wait!
