and relax...

2038 hundred hours. saturday.

finished! all the live takes are down now, which means that all me and luke have left to do is wander electrical finding stuff to hit. and then hit them. in the right places. pretty much.

feels good. today we kicked off with "sailplanes", a song about... sailing. yep. no-one's heard this before, but it sounds a bit like mclusky in their slower moments. not initially scheduled for the album but turned out pretty fookin massive. the perfect way to end the album. got this one second take. "radical" came next - this was a bitch. first take was rockin but due to some reasons too boring to go into, it had to be re-done. took a while, oddly enough. but came out... MASSIVE. me and Gee-Gee re-did the intro due to some other reasons more boring than the previous ones. about 5 times. haha. rock and roll. the band upstairs are tracking their drums separately to their cymbals. honestly.

oh yeh, and we finished off with the album opener which will be called "freak le freak, AKA the freakster". I reckon the album should be called this too, we'll see. antonio conducted us for this, he's got some talent in that department. he's also just beaten me at billiards again. i'm pretty sure he stayed up all night reading the big billiards book (entitled "billiards" i think), and all day practising. he's pretty nifty.

dinner has been consumed. the studio has been re-set. we are now officially OVER-DUBBING second guitars. and maybe some vocals.

see ya on the flipside.

yours free and easy,
