december 8-9...still continued
Since Jacki and Lindsay made posts...I decided to post too! It's my first time, and I don't have any pictures. But I'll recap the story:
So on December 8th we all got up around 10. Jacki only got a few hours of sleep because she was at Mason Gross working on a video project. We loaded up my car and drove to Kyle's house. We met his girlfriend Laura, who is really nice and has an Australian accent. She makes amazing music too.
When Kyle loaded up his car with the recording gear we all drove around the corner to the Fall cafe. Kyle is a big believer in the power of snacks, so we got some snacks. We also saw people from Balthrop Alabama. They were fun and friendly as usual!
Then we drove to this warehouse. It has lots of rooms that people can use for whatever purposes they want. Somebody was sawing things! The best thing was that the place had an industrial elevator, so we didn't have to carry all of our stuff up six flights of stairs. Setting up everything took a long time. Well...not for me really! Jacki was borrowing drums so she and Kyle spent some time getting the right sound out of them. Kyle and Lindsay also took some time to get the right sound out of the amps she was using (she brought both the Hot Rod Deluxe and the Champ, it sounded really good).
Setting up my stuff was pretty easy. My amp was picking up radio signals through! It was the first time that ever happened with that amp. It didn't really matter though, in fact, it was pretty cool. When you hear the EP, you'll see what I mean.
After setting up we got MORE SNACKS. Everybody else got falafel but I got spinach pie. It was good. Then we came back and recorded live. First we did F Sharp. I was nervous because I play this noodly part for that song, and it's easy to mess up. We did like five takes I think, and we actually played pretty well on all of them. We ended up keeping the last take.
Then we recorded Grace. We did two takes and kept the first. Doing the noise part with all of the recording stuff there was kind of weird, but it came out good. Then we did Archibald Alexander or whatever we're naming that song. We had a few mess ups at first and couldn't get through the whole song! But when we did get through it, it was the perfect take and we kept it. That was the end of that day.
That night, Lindsay, Jacki, and I took the metro to some punkhouse across the way to see Screaming Females and kill some time. The house was packed! I hope when we tour the house shows we play will have that many people.
There were lots of hipsters and punk rockers, and I felt a little dorky for a second. When we were at the back door asking if this was the way in, people just ignored us for awhile! Jerks. But then I remembered that we just recorded live in this cool warehouse thing with Kyle Fischer and it was really fun. And then while Lindsay and I were waiting for the bathroom, these two girls were psychoanalyzing Marissa's haircut...that was when I decided I was officially cooler than these kids, despite the fact that I was wearing an FBI sweatshirt and thinking about playing Pokemon. Screamales put on a good show and the kids were loving it. I hadn't seen them for awhile, so I got to hear some of their new songs.
Jacki stayed with Marissa; she needed to go home and do schoolwork. Lindsay and I stayed overnight at Shawn, Cherlyn, and Sabrina's house, which is kind of near that creepy bar called Goodbye Blue Monday. Shawn walked us there, and it took a long time! They had a little black cat that they named Little Bear, but I called it Miss Kitty because it had an attitude. We slept on a couch. In the middle of the night, Pavan came home in a Santa costume.
We woke up and were sore from sleeping weirdly. We got coffee, and took the metro back to Smith street and waited for Kyle to get out of church. Then we went back to the warehouse thing and did vocals. Lindsay was nervous, but she sounded great and did almost everything in one take. Kyle mixed everything quickly. Lindsay and I drove home in the rain and listened to it.
The end.

we are all moved in to our new apartment! we played music one of the first nights we were here and i fucked up my foot really bad because i had beers before and didn't notice the kick pedal i borrowed was slamming into my foot with every kick..it's looking better but boy was it nasty a day or two ago. i also jammed my finger again which is nothing new but it is already looking better. mercy went to her internship, alex and lindsay are farting around and karen is painting the bathroom. i am listening to the go team and sippin' on some water. the apartment is gorgeous, i love it here.

i can post too!
i've been camping out in new brunswick for a couple of days now. its been fun. hopefully jacki and i will get to play some music at some point.
mercy is in maryland with her dad and grandmom.
soon enough we will be united at 223 hamilton street. so excited.
thanks to kyle fischer (rainer maria), i now have a PA. i'm pretty sure all of the watts, ohms, and whatever else don't match up, so hopefully it won't explode before i get to practice with it with the whole band.
