5 things of little relevance

1.  My Google Reader is chocka full of politics.  I can’t take it any more!

2.  Today I went to the gym.  I have been meaning to join for a long time and I’m glad that I finally have.  When I got home I ate chocolate biscuits.

3.  I discovered my degrees of separation from my most favorite author Terry Pratchett today.  I play/ed in a band with Tory Staples —> Who also plays in a band called Battle Circus —->  Who recently opened for Amanda Palmer —->  Who’s photo book “Who Killed Amanda Palmer” had text written for it by Neil Gaiman  —> Who co-wrote the book Good Omens with Terry Pratchett.  Small world aye?

4.  I am really pleased with the game music I have done lately, though I keep wanting to do more and more little tweaks because I am on a perfectionist buzz.

5.  With my album I am much less of a perfectionist.  Keeping it indie, keeping it real, it has to sound like it was recorded in a bedroom. I want to finish it in time to go on summer tour.  This summer is just screaming road trip at me.

A little sneak peek of a current WIP. Really rough, not mixed cos still in the recording process on this. Still gotta record drums and redo the bass, record my vocals if I ever get my voice back (thats just my old guide track in there so far), gotta fix up those harmonies a bit (thats my friend James on backing vox, he’s gonna kill me if I don’t make him sound fab).
