Went to the studio today and mixed all 4 tracks. Jody Hill is doing an amazing job, on top of playing bass and adding keyboard parts, he has pushed Kevin and I further than we have ever been. The best producer/engineer we have ever worked with. 4 Songs are done, just need another mixing session to get things just right. We are taking a few weeks off, probably til after Christmas, then the first

Sorry i haven't posted in a few weeks, Started back to fall semister at school, day job at Gibson, computer repair by night, drummer in a band, superhero....There's just not enough hours in the day... I Heard the Bass tracks today that Greg Carmichael recorded for us. Very Good stuff there Greg! I was surprised about how well that it flows with the mood of the songs, considering he has never

Yesterday Jody gave me a disc of the two songs he has recorded on bass. Very different from the previous versions. Even Kevin and I are Recording the songs different from ever before. Amazing how songs change over time. Also Greg Carmichael (photo @ left) guitarist for the NMB band told me Friday that he was interested in recording with us. Hes going to record Sunday with Jody and Kevin and I

I spent the most of the last year with Daniel at practice one week and Kevin at Practice the next week. There were issues between them that completely disrupted the progress of the band. I have waited and waited to post this announcement but with the events of the last few days it is painfully obvious that the drama has only gotten worse and there seems to be no solution in site. I'm not saying

Jody caught me at work today and said he had 2 of the 4 tracks recorded and would resume tonight. Maybe can put the vocal tracls down sat>? Phil left work at 12:30 and ran down south main St. to do a live show on WEVL and then ran back to work to finish building Guitars. Very Cool. Phil and Nick have done more gigs than Practices. Amazing!.....

Kevin recorded the Acoustic Guitar parts today. Kevin, Jody and I jammed for an hour or so and then played the Bad Planet Tunes so Jody could get the feel of everything. Played some Zep, Black Sabbath and Metallica and then just kinda free jammed for a bit. Very Cool Jam Today. I forgot my Camera so i took a few shots with my cell phone. The last two while we were playing.

Kevin Recorded Guitar tracks Tuesday Night. Jody did a great job getting different guitar sounds by changing amps and settings and then blending the tracks together. He is doing a great job recording and mixing and getting progress made each session. He has gave us a few more paths to take with our songs that we did not have before. Gina came to the studio tonight and it was really great seeing

Picked up my drums from the studio tonight. It was raining and muggy out and i think none of us felt like recording, so we talked for an hour or so. Jody is going to record the bass tracks after Kevin finishes his guitar and vocal tracks. Interesting to see where this will lead to..........

Set up my drums and worked on mike placement. Did sound check while our Sound Engineer Jody Hill got everything on the board set. "Last Generation" drum tracks were done after 4 or 5 takes with just a little spot in the middle not matching up. Will fix that next session. Jody is doing a great job and we can't wait for everyone to hear the finished product. Heres a picture of Jody in the

6-8pm Programmed drum machine to use as a time meter. Took a few minutes each track to get the drum machine to match our tempo and time changes. Kevin recorded 4 rhythm guitar tracks. They will recorded over later but will be used as a guide for me next week to record my drum tracks. The Gibson Les Paul sounded muddy and dull, so we switched to the Mosrite. A much brighter sound. ( The Les

Damn, It's been over 3 months since i posted to this Blog. That is the longest break since i started this blog in 2003. One reason was the band took a break so there was really nothing to say, and second, I sold my House and moved so that was a long drawn out thing....God I hope i never do that again. Don't even ask me about the housing market and the transition my neighborhood went thru in 16

Last Jam in Bad Planet Studio! Phil and I worked on originals for a hour or two, then Kevin Moody and I played a few new tunes and some of the old "Bad Planet" stuff, Then the three of us jammed out for a another hour or two... I just put my house up for sale and i have to clear the Studio out, so this will be the last session here in Bad Planet Studio. I've had alot of great musicians come to my
