Day Three Hundred Forty Seven (Year Six)

I got a little bit of work in today, but mostly I got distracted by finally getting around to figuring out where most of the music collection is going to go, and exactly how that is going to look once it's done. That process involved moved a gigantic shelf that we just picked up at an auction from one part of the house to another, but now that it's mixed in with the CD racks I have used previously, I'm really liking the look of it. There will likely be some time spent putting away CDs tomorrow, but there will also be more time spent in the studio tomorrow than there was today.

I really, really need to get down there tomorrow and get a good bit of work done.

Day Two Hundred Ninety Three (Year Four)

Big day today, for a few reasons... First off, it was a good night in the studio. As opposed to the recent sessions that have had a singular focus (either theory-related, or acoustic/set list related), tonight had a little bit of both things in it. When I hit the studio tonight, I fully expected to pick up the electric and work out a bit more theory studying, much like things have gone for the last week or so. Knowing that, I somehow ended up with the acoustic in my hands, working through a little bit of Brandi Carlile. More specifically, two songs of hers that I have always loved, "Wasted," and "Fall Apart Again," but until tonight, never taken the time to sit down and learn. I have a songbook with everything from the first three records, and it took me until tonight to sit down and take a look at working through some of these things. In a related note, I really feel like the last year has been so very good for my confidence, musically. There are some p

Day Three Hundred Forty (Year Six)

It's done. Well, okay, so it's 99.5% done, but that's close enough for me. The stereo and the turntable got set up this morning, as I figured they would, and the two bags of randomness (picks, my slide, tuners, etc) and the few small piles of notebooks got dealt with tonight. I even managed to get the iMac set up, if not fired up. And yet, the studio remains only slightly unfinished. Somewhere in either the house or the garage, there must be a box or a bag that has a couple of studio-related items tucked into it, because there are at least two things I can't find. As fate would have it, they're important things, too. And something tells me that they're all in one place. I'm missing: 1. My looping pedal 2. The power cable for my Marshall 3. The foot switch for the Marshall They're all things that would have been in the same general area in the old studio, but given how much of the house we've gotten set up already, it really surpris
