Yeah baby! Müf recording went really well over the weekend, even if we didn’t quite get all the vocals finished. I was anxious about doing the vocals as I haven’t sung on anything since my days in am-dram musicals (and AWU backing vocals), but I loved it. Gave it the full-on Band Aid sunglasses-on-and-headphones-over-one-ear treatment too. Quality. All the other parts sounded great, and I did two different takes of a solo for one of the tracks, and we're using them both cos it sounds wicked. May prove problematic to play live (I may have to evolve a new set of arms), but sounded great on the initial mix. Boo-yaka-sha!

My amp died on me almost as soon as we turned it on at the studio, but luckily for us we know some very cool people who lent us their amp for the day - and subsequently for Tues and Wed this week for the Müf gig and the White Sunday gig I have at the Fez. Take a bow, Rebus - you are fine and noble gents, I don’t care what anyone else says(!).

I read my last post - the "pinch-me-I-must-be-dreaming" time/place scenarios" comment made me think of the scene in "Airplane!" where Stryker had to ask the guy next to him to pinch him. Funny. I love that film, and the expression "Looks like I picked the wrong day to give up amphetamines/sniffing glue" always comes in handy, too.
