Monday, April 2nd

Today was a catch-up day for my energy level. I had the usual Monday things to do at the church office (mostly following up on stuff from Sunday) and didn't feel like sitting on an un-padded bar stool for another 6 hours!

So Coop and I sat down to double-check all of the drum recordings before moving on the the rest of the tracks. The drums are basically the foundation of all the recordings - if they're off, we'll be building on a faulty foundation. Fortunately, Matt was right on with everything. Not only that but it sounds incredible. No timid, half-hearted drumming here. I can personally guarantee that this album will have you air-drumming like an idiot while you listen to it in your car.

After that, we had to pack up everything into the church pickup truck and haul it back to Coop's place, where we'll finish up the rest of the recording - starting with the rest of the bass tracks tomorrow night.

Coop's place is right on Jupiter inlet and has a deck right on the water. It's a great environment to record in and I can't wait to get going!

Tomorrow I'll be working on arranging bass parts for the remaining 9 songs in order to maximize our efficiency when recording tomorrow night. Hopefully we'll also get in some acoustic guitar as well...
