A few things of note today:
1) With the last two days spent out of town for family-related awesomeness (my brother straight-up killed it at the concert yesterday), things might end up being a little bit tight when it comes to getting everything recorded by the end of the month. We got home through a snowstorm today by 5ish PM. Trip took a total of seven hours today, after taking about three and a half yesterday. On top of that, I'm getting a cold, so if vocals don't get tracked by the end of the month, at this point, I'll be okay with that. There's still going to be plenty to do, though, because...
2) Not including today, there are 10 days left in February. I've already decided that I'm not necessarily looking for full-band type performances here. That said, I'd like to have something in the way of drums/rhythm behind my acoustic parts for the songs in this thing. And sure, in a perfect world, I'd love nothing more than to get some electric on there and flesh out all of the sounds that I hear in my head, but if I get the acoustic parts right in the first place, there's nothing that says I can't go back and add in other parts after the fact.
3) Considering the time crunch, I sat down tonight and got some of the tempos perfected. I need to get that part of things finished up tomorrow if I can, so that recording can begin in earnest heading into the last week of the month. I've got some of Thursday to play around with this week, so if I can finish tempos tomorrow night, and get enough drums done on Wednesday that I can spend at least some of Thursday recording guitar parts, things will be in pretty good shape (I hope!)
