Wow what a long day. Today was guitar day and despite Tony's bravado that "oh my guitar will only take a couple of hours..." well f me if it didn't take closer to 8 hours. You have no idea how exahusting and boring it is to listen to guitar played over and over all day. I'm looking to forward to some sleep. Today was probably the first day in the whole process that has been a chore rather than an out and out blast. Thankfully it is all done with, with a few nice adds and saves by Stuart

Lucky for most of us we have a day off tomrrow so we can rest. Sadly though I am going to have to spend the day working through all types of lyrical changes. Actually I can't lie it will be great fun. They music really has come along way and i'm excited to get the lyrics to the same level.

Have fun and sleep well.

The bass is all done.  Yaya.  I'm just going to sit back and do nothing for the next week.  Ha ha not quite. Most of the lyrics are to be re-written so that will keep me plenty busy.  I don't eny Leah having to learn so many new lyrics, actually I do as I can't sing two notes together that land in the same key so she has that up on me.
 
It isn't all recording and rock and roll up here.  To celebrate finishing all my bass parts i got to watch my first episode of neighbours in about 4 years and a dog died in it.  That really wasn't much of a celebration at all and also really what is the go with the biggest loser.  I didn't know you could pump so much "drama" into weight loss.  I was schooled.

Tomorrow is guitars, lyrics writing and practicing all the new vocal melodies.  A very busy day.  Though we do get Saturday off so that should be fun.  Gold Coast for the day?  Maybe.

Have fun.

Ah the first of 12 days of recording.

Today we went through the final songs we have been narrowing it down to, from the 120 to 60 to 40 to 13 and now down to the final 6.  Out of the final six songs we've cut bits out, added new bits and identified areas that each song needs to improve. Apparently writing catchy verses isn't a problem but big chourses, well that is another thing.  Probably should listen to more stadium rock.

Tonight will be writing, re-writing, changing more and then we'll see if it all fits together.  It's been a pretty exciting day for us, writing songs always is, but it probably sound so much for anyone else.

Highlight was Qantas losing Leah's bright pink case on her flight up and the fantastic qantas boxer shorts they gave her. We will be fighting over those.  The living is pretty sweet with a pool, own kitchen and bathroom and some very soft beds.  Promise we'll put some photos up.

Have Fun
