We measure our progress in inches





Even though we have a couple songs "in the can" as they say for the next record, yesterday was what I am considering the beginning of recording for the next record. Mike is still gone for family time holiday business but our goal yesterday was to get basic tracks for 3 originals and 2 covers. We started the basics for "Embracing the Modern Age" with texts of "SNOW!" coming in. Indeed it was snowing. Nothing sticking yet but was it ever coming down. Moved onto basics for "Sitting on the Edge" and opened the door to see a good couple inches on the ground. I went to Trader Joe's before hand for snacks so if we get stuck it's cool. We moved onto "Majoring in the Arts' but couldn't get the feel. We decided to take a break and go next door to the bar for a drink to "unwind." The last thing I remember is a Jamesons with a beer back set in front of me.
