Day 2

Today was our first day of pre production, and I had no idea what to expect. Our producer, Aaron, comes in and he is half awake, he goes into the control room and starts to mix another project he was doing, we had no idea what the hell was going on. At this point we don't know what to do, so we continue to watch t.v. After a while, a few smoke breaks and many phone calls later we get to work. It was so nerve wracking to sit there and have someone else pick apart your songs, you have no idea what he will say, will he like the songs at all? We got lucky, our producer liked the majority of the songs, there just parts he wanted us to change, so most of the day was spent rewriting parts of songs and demoing them. After a few songs were finished I was amazed what we came up with. We ended the day early, around 5pm, and we needed to go grocery shopping. So we hopped in the van, and risked losing our parking spot. We drove down the street to the QFC. For those of you that don't know what a QFC is, it a grocery store that is terribly overpriced, and they don't seem to believe in generic brands. Now I don't have any problem with gay men, but my friends and I get checked out every minute or so, it's little uncofortable. Let me explain, we're staying a very gay part of Seattle called Capital Hill, and there is a lot of 'action' going on around us. There is a men's bath house on the corner, and I'm pretty sure there are no women living in any of the other condos in our complex. This whole thing is going nowhere, so I'll stop while I'm ahead. Just something I need to get used to. More preproduction tomorrow, I'm excited. Goodnight.
