i ran out of tape for my four track. i had this line 'my name isn't samantha, i didn't come here from canada' running through my head. i wanted to say something about people spying on their neighbors, turning them in for living their lives and beliefs. it didn't come out that way. i threw everything directly into audacity. the problem with audacity is it doesn't keep the tracks synced up. i had to manually line everything up, sometimes not so well. all the tracks are slightly out of sync. so frustrating. ahhh, new learning curves. so out came 'samantha', i forgot to mention the pocket poodle, oh well...

i ended up rerecording 'why am i wrong?' the same way, another problem with syncing, it's hard to determine how badly i played, it all seems so... well, it isn't tight like i want it, which prevents it from really being that power-slap in the face.  but the idea is there. i reworked the middle part a little tighter, tougher. everything remains pretty raw, but i find the guitar doesn't punch through like it should, but at least we can hear the bass now... and the drums are a little clearer. all things to learn through more trial and error. perhaps next i'll do 'choke' and give that a work over.
