blogging and recording

Yep, today is the day. Today is the day we record at 3pear. It is Christmas morning here in Andersonville. Yahoo!

Oh, our website is updated somewhat. Thanks be to Tommy.

*update*

Well, it is 12:16 and we finally have something to show for it. It took an hour or more to get set up. Then we cranked through Leaving of Liverpool in one take. Irish ROver was a bit different. Anywhooo...it continues anon!

*update* - 1:16pm

You know, The Fields of Athenry is a lovely song. So is Long Black Veil. We have not yet begun the background vocals or my handy little mandolin solos. That should be an adventure. I am only learning how to make the solos handy.

*update* - 1:51pm

Isn't It Grand is a gentle song about embracing life. Aye, it is to be sure, to be sure. But I don't play on it. I sing. So, I can blog.

I feel the need for a pizza. I think the Girls will agree. Will someone call Calo's for us?

And always remember: The longer you live, the sooner you bloody well die!

*update* - 2:49pm

The pizza is here and The Water is Wide. There is the semblance of a handy solo.


*update* - 3:52pm

Well, Wild Rover took forever and none of us are satisfied. But it is done...or medium rare at least. So we will keep what we have. Now we get to add the backing tracks.

We is a tired bunch.

*update* - 6:44pm

And we are done. There will be some very good stuff on thsi CD. Then there is the rest. Eleven songs, lots of harmonies and foolishness...good times had by all.

Exeunt.

Was at the Celtic Knot tonight, another band was playing, not as good as the girls. Look forward to the cd, trying to figure out how to catch Trish's new show as well. Don' be strangers.

By the way, I am curious:

Awesome! When and where can I buy it? And will the Girls be playing the week of Thanksgiving? Because my better half and I just might be in your general vicinity...
