days 113 &114... "the making of".........

it's so late, my eyes are nearly closed, but the beams of light shooting off of my trusty imac are keeping them from snapping shut!
yesterday i did a few more background vocals for one of the songs i'm working on with jp. then, I had to prepare all the files and put them neatly on my portable little hard drive and took them to his house today. he loaded them into his computer, all seemed to be working well which is good. we worked on a few of the songs today; we put my harmonica solo on one of them and also some strings on that song and another one. that all took a few hours, but we got a lot accomplished and it was great fun.
now, all we have left to do is strings on one of the other songs, maybe, if we feel it needs it. there might be a guitar or two left to put on. we are getting close to having all the elements there, very exciting. it's sounding very good in my opinion right now. what i like about this new creation: there's nothing "gimmicky" about it. kind of scary, like doing it "without a net" so to speak. but i think, at last, that's a very, very good thing. for the longest time, I feel like i've been trying to be something that i'm not. i made the decision, that had to stop.
tomorrow, will see jp in the evening along with some other friends i haven't seen in a while. after dinner i might even go down to this club called cozy's to sit in with vivino and the gang. they're only playing there 2 more times, including tomorrow. a week from tomorrow will mark the end of their 8 month residency there. i've had a great time jamming with them and look forward to more in the future.


off to bed before i start snoring....

love always;
