I'll preface this by saying that I've got friends in town again, and they'll be here until Saturday night... that being said, I didn't get a whole lot of playing done today, but I did pick up the guitar for a few minutes and run through the stuff J. and I are working on. Felt good to do that two days in a row. Nice to be back in the saddle with the music we've been recording. Hopefully I'll get a chance to do a little bit more tomorrow.
Short one today. I've got a bunch of the DVDs that Guitar World has put out. Waded through those to see what I had, worked off of the lead guitar one. Just basic scales , but still a light place to begin. It was nice to just start loosening up my fingers again. Off from work tomorrow, so hopefully I'll get a lot of playing done. Said I'd mention the other project I'm hoping to finish this year. Back when I was living in WI, I started a hard rock band with a friend of mine. She was heavily influenced by Evanescence, and so, with her as vocalist, we started writing songs. We had written and demoed almost a full album's worth of music by the time I moved to IA, and had even purchased a P.A. in preparation for eventual gigs. We never did find a permanent drummer or bassist, so our demos sound very rough (and not nearly loud enough). I'd like to finish those songs, and make an EP of the 4 or 5 strongest, just as a way to put a cap on that project. More tom...
