working on an acoustic recording of a new song. Will be posting as a free download soon. w/ Matt Long @ The Coffee Pub, Tallahassee, FL - 8pm / FREE Band practice tonight went swimmingly. Worked on new songs from the last few weeks including a rocker tenatively called “three small words” which has me playing a with a pick for the first time and the newer slower version of “look good.” Josh and I continue to develop fake side project worthy material while everyone packs up. Last week saw the birth of “guillotine submarine” and tonight I composed on the spot a new one called “downtown, down south.” Also brought out some stop boxes from the shed. Bass players have to be careful using pedals without looking like a tool. Here’s the current (hopefully tasteful) line up on my board right now: -Big Muff Pi fuzz -Bass Balls envelope filter -Boss Bass Chorus -Plus a mute and octave switch that controls my ashdown head Am thinking it will be an enhancement every now and then if I use the effects very sparingly and in a subtle way. + stratton
Week 4 of banner love, but the heathens have us beat (for now). Random Lyrics What if I left here tomorrow, What if I went for the coast? What if I kept what I borrowed, What would you miss the most? What if I sold all my secrets, Brought ‘em all into view? At all the bars I infrequent, No one has the blues… Vapor trails and ashes Disappearing lives Long cast shadows When I don’t care that I don’t care, Things break down (“Things Break Down”, unreleased track) |
