Alright, real progress! Fixed the Logic project file, finished all electric guitars (and marked down which tracks need revisions), and now i'm just working out acoustic guitar and vocal parts. It's starting to sound like a real album now.

I've got a bunch of really cool shows coming up, especially Options @ Schubas  on 2/13. Check out my "live" page for specifics!

Still battling the Logic Demons. I managed to get 12 songs done yesterday but I'm still having strange issues with Logic (saying that *# of audio files have changed in length - the number changes every time I open it) but the backup project files still work? I don't get it. Trying one more time to resolve it before I port the entire thing over to ProTools, which I may wind up doing anyway. But when I have actually been able to record, it's been going really well!
I just confirmed a session with a rad screamo band from Champaign, which will be my first non-self recording at The Owlery. Things are going pretty OK.

After spending most of last night trying to fix my Logic session, I thought I finally succeeded and went to bed. Woke up this morning and there were still a heap of issues, so instead of spending my day in the studio, I've been working on cleaning up and organizing the file so hopefully, recording will go smoothly from here on out. With any luck, I'll be recording by tomorrow.

I just got back from a two and a half week adventure in Southeast Asia, where I finally had time to think without interruption about this album (I know what I want the title to mean, just figuring out the best way to phrase it) and how I want to build it. I didn't listen to the sessions the entire time, so listening to them yesterday felt fresh and new again. Today, I finished all the electric guitar tracks for 3 songs and I'm starting to come up with ideas for how to track vocals. Tomorrow I'll probably work on some acoustic guitar tracks and Wednesday, I'll be back in the practice space tracking more loud guitars.
