We started Monday, got the Drums and Bass tracks all finished by Tuesday (13 tunes)...I started guitars last night, got rhythm guitars finished for 8 songs. Tonight I finish rhythm guitars and start lead tracks...this is hands down the most exciting time I have ever had recording, I can't wait to hear the finished tunes!

I got on a roll last night, finished the rhythm tracks, and did all but three lead parts and two baritone overdubs, all of which I'll lay down Monday. What a week this has been! My bandmates are astonished, in the past guitars have taken days, sometimes weeks to do...it's good to be the Doctor P.S. Steve, all three of those axes saw heavy action brother, thank you a thousand times. Last edited by Doc Lovett; 09/14/07 02:23 PM.

Steve V Yeah buddy...funny thing though, I keep hearing voices from the DeArmond, things like "Doc, I wanna be in your band" and "hey Doc, I'd sound really good live on that song too"... In all seriousness, I really love the feel and sound of that baby, I'm gonna be keeping a lookout to see if I can get one like it for a good price. Thanks again, from me and the rest of the boys also. Ladykillers load dice on me, behind my back while imitators steal me blind

That DeArmond would make a lot better music in your hands then it ever will it mine, but I'm just not ready to give it up yet...maybe we can work on some type of adoption program or something I'm sure it wouldn't mind visiting.

They all sounded great for different things bro, which was the goal...my first shot at a major release the last thing I wanted was to get stuck on one guitar tone throughout...y'know it's a Rock and Roll record, but each song has it's own subtle flavors. Unbelievable fun putting it all together. We'll talk soon. Ladykillers load dice on me, behind my back while imitators steal me blind

The only bigger fool is the one that backed Axl's fifteen year 13 million dollar miscarriage of music. Maybe he should have been a politician. They are always pissing away time and money!
