Today has been a great day. In between doing some stuff around the house, I've basically had a guitar in my hands from the moment I woke up. I've gone through some of the Lead tab stuff from yesterday (but not with the DVD yet), paged through the new Guitar World, and done a little bit of stuff in terms of originals. Not as much as I would've liked to yet, but the night is young, and I've still got tomorrow. Haven't gotten in touch with J. yet, but that'll be tomorrow's project. Off to do more playing. Oh, and I forgot to dream up a Top 5 for today, so you'll just have to wait on that one. Hopefully another great one tomorrow!
Today was the first official day of the second half of my "album-in-a-month" challenge. As for today's goals, I wanted to see what I could get done in regards to track order, and get at least a little bit of a start on the lyric writing process. I spent more time working on the track order question than I did on the lyrics today, but as a result of that, I ended up with something that I think will work in terms of order. I did sit with the notebook for a few minutes at the very end of the day, and got a solid starting line of lyric and some other ideas that I hope will be jumping off points for lyrics. What I'm thinking I might do, however, is switch my focus from the lyric writing part of the process directly to the recording part of the process. That way, if I can get the music recorded and burned onto a CD, I can take the music with me in the car, and listen and try to see what images and thoughts the music brings up. It's a tactic that has worked for...
