never a dull moment

        FRIDAY 5/1/2020 10:37 PM--I put my re-interpretation of YESTERDAY in to my iTunes Library...the first of two guitar solos was missing--don't EVEN ask me why, cause I dunno...suddenly I found with the first guitar solo IN it--I got it off of youTube...dunno what's going on tomorrow, but I hope to work on electric CLOWN...
SATURDAY 5/2/2020 11:20 AM-- it took probably 200 takes and two or three days but I FINALLY got the keyboard part to (electric) CLOWN done...I put down the Bass track almost instantly, although made a ONE-NOTE mistake...I was miraoulusly able to seamlessly punch-in the correct note...kinda makes up for the torture that was laying down the keyboard part...what's next? the drums (ugh)...might try to work on 'em after my nap--if I get a nap...and I MUST remember to be especially careful with the 1180s switchs buttons and knobs--I really REALLY REALLY REALLY don't wanna have to play that keyboard part again...
5:33 PM--now I can't remember if I DID have to play it one more time...but I absolutely NEED to make a checklist...I keep forgetting to [fill in the blank] before I record anything, vocals, bass parts, guitar parts...electric Clown is finished, but for the mixing/mastering...but I'm taking a break from CLOWN for now...it's not like it has to be absolutely totally finished by Noon tomorrow..and if I'm gonna do the open mic, I GOTTA rehearse at least a little...
7:46 PM--it's that impatience thing again...I really wanna mix/master Clown now, create a CD and somehow maybe do a video...it will have to wait until tomorrow...damn...
10:22 PM--I plan to play MR. QUARANTINE MAN at the Monday open mic and LMYR at the Wednesday open mic...
SUNDAY 5/3/2020 9:08 AM--been having trouble sleeping lately...can't seem to shut my Mind off sometimes...for instance, I added two more verses to MR. QUARENTINE MAN...they just sorta fell outta my head while I was staring at the ceiling...on April  28 I sent an apology to the FHB...I haven't heard back from them yet...
11:37 AM--electric CLOWN (the CD) is as done as *I* can make it...for ME. recording is HARD work...I MIGHT get the video done today, but I don't have to...
127 PM--I listened to the two different mixes thru iTues--*I* don't hear much of a difference, if there is one...
4:34 PM--I did a video and after some effort it's on youTube...if the roomie wasn't napping on the couch, I'd possibly go to the Lab and work on stuff...but I'm tired, because I didn't get a nap...oh well...
7:05 PM--I just cancelled my appearence at the Monday Night open mic, hosted by Dan Mack...I was getting scared anyway...
8:50 PM--so far I think RISING SUN BLUES is the best sounding of Lab recordings...
