We have been taking a wee break these last few weeks. Well a break from rehearsals anyway as I have been slogging away mixing the tracks we have already recorded, as well as recording beds for some of the other tunes. I am just about to begin writing up the score for the epic The Discovery Of Witchcraft. Right now some parts are fully scored, but mostly it exists as several dozen pieces of paper with very quick jottings on it (those pages at the top are the kind of thing I mean).
The search is still on for a bassist. We have several people coming out to audition still and we excited about the calibre of player we are attracting. Of course, there are always those people who get in touch acting like playing the tunes will be a cakewalk only to show up barely able to play their instrument let alone some of the pretty convoluted tunes we do. It makes you wonder if some people actually take the time to read the ads they respond to (or check out the rather lengthy list of links we provide). No matter, we are pretty impressed with most of the people who have come out and those who we have scheduled.
we will be recording in my studio. It will be a week-long session so I am hoping we can pretty well finish all the band tracking and just tidy up some solo and vocal parts afterwards. We'll see.
