It's nice to find that something you've been putting off for a while, thinking it would be too difficult, turns out to be easier than you thought.
I spent this afternoon avoiding the glorious, brilliant sunshine, bunkered down in the computer room at the 'Manor recording guitar parts for various tunes, realising I hadn't written enough lyrics & trying to get back into last week's headspace to write more ~ a task I didn't enjoy quite so much, but 2 out of 3 ain't bad...
Having mastered the art of recording with both DI & microphone inputs, tomorrow's challenge is to multi-track vocal ideas over the top of today's hard-won guitar lines, then playing with the various on-board effects to make my voice sound interesting or, at the very least, palatable.
Home from an early drinks/dinner engagement, nowhere near as drunk as I'd like to be. Given that I didn't get anywhere near as drunk as I wanted to be last night either (post-nightmare gig), I feel I owe it to myself to open a bottle of red, finish writing some lyrics & watch House 'til I start seeing 2 Hugh Lauries, then go to bed after the novelty & pleasant surprise of 3 Jennifer Morrisons starts to wear off...
