Day 1



It's strange to anticipate something for so long, and when it finally happens, it almost seems surreal. That's what I experienced today. For people reading this that don't know me, the band I'm in gets to spend the next seven weeks in Seatle recording a record. This was something we've been talking about for almost a year now, and it's fianlly become a reality. We've been driving since around 8am this morning, we reached Seattle about 7pm and we're now at the studio/ apartment that will be our new home for a while. This place is absolutley amazing. The studio is up on Capital Hill, in a really nice condo complex. The actual recording studio is located on the ground floor of the building and we have a condo up on the second floor, and this place is nice. Hopefully I can get some pictures to put up. But I'll explain. All wood floors, big screen T.V., dreamcast, x-box, woreless internet, huge porch over- looking the people below, everything. We're currently unpacking our bags and getting settled in. Our A&R guy/ best friend, Jon, went with us to dinner and we sat around and watched some SNL. Jeff and Jordan are in the other room working out a new song, still trying to get the best songs we can. We start pre- production tomorrow at 10:30am, I'm so excited I can't really put it into words. It's cold as hell here, and everything sround the studio seems nice, except for the guy who asked us if he could buy a cigarette from us three different times, I hope he's not out front every night. I'm still getting used to this keyboard, so sorry for any misspellings or errors in my writing.
