In which our adventurers search for the good take

The second day aboard the Sea Devil started strongly, with sizeable doughnuts and strong coffee.  It wasn’t long after the sun was up the we set to work, tracking out the third, fourth and fifth songs for our forthcoming record.  We knew that we were working in a great space by the grace of our host, Captain Chuck, and as much as he’s a terribly friendly and welcoming guy, we knew that we had a lot to do in order to get out of his home in a timely fashion.

Mr. Weller in the hold.

Mr. Lutz fighting for articulation.



Captain Chuck overseeing the progress of our intrepid crew.



As the day progressed, our commitment would wax and wane.  We tried our level best to get everything recorded and stay on schedule, but weren’t certain whether it would happen.  It was cold, and we were drinking.


Waxing.




Waning.



Waxing and waning.


In the end, we were able to get the basic recordings for all five songs recorded to our great satisfaction, though not without some effort.  It’s safe to say that any performer would be taxed to their limits after playing for nearly 12 hours.
