FINISHIN' UP DRUMS! LOVIN' PBR!
Wellll yesterday we finished up drums for what we thought was the last track of the album… but then we ended up writing another song! So today Mikey is going to finish up drums for this newest song, and then we’re going to review all of the drum tracks to make sure we’re not going to redo any songs… and then GEEEEETAR time!

Making click tracks is fun!
In the immortal words of Shang Tsung in the original Mortal Kombat movie… IT HAS BEGUN.
started getting all the click tracks organized in Pro Tools so Mikey can begin tracking drums tomorrow(well it’s 3:30 AM.. so later today really…) and hell, we’ll probably end up spending the entire day tuning drums and working on tones… cause… well… dammit...
