So as many of you know, both the EP and the full length album have been recorded. I am so stoked for everyone of you to hear it. Daniel Dixon, who recorded both albums, and is now a member of the band, is a blessing from God, and has taken the music of the Parade Schedule to a whole new level. It is so easy to become hardened to the joy that you first experience in writing a song, after you have played this particular song a hundred times, but after all the vocals and instruments had been added to some of the songs, I actually got teary eyed and felt a chill run down my spine. It was like hearing the songs anew.
I am so thankful for all of the friends that got together with me on these recordings. That was the point of the "parade schedule", a parade of people doing many different things.
The whole process has strengthened and made me feel closer to my friends, and it just amazed and humbled me that all of the people would take time out of their schedules to make music with me, or take pictures, give encouragement, provide artwork, let us stay in their house to record (Deebs).
So thank you everyone who said a kind word to me regarding the music, or who played an instrument or lended their voice to the album. You are much appreciated.
