joys of home recording

After a few weeks of intending to start recording again, but not quite getting around to it, I finally set everything up in the living room, got the microphones placed just right, tweaked the levels, practiced the song a couple times, took a deep breath, and... someone started up A CHAINSAW OUTSIDE MY WINDOW.

RECORDING! Right... Um... Meet me at Barefoot tomorrow at 6:15ish and I'll bring you that adapter?

Yeah, I think I can make that. Or if I forget, hand it off to Avery or Kate? I'll be there for the open mike later, anyway. Yay!

I have successfully remembered to bring it with me today. That's progress.

Hooray! Now you just have to remember to get coffee after work....

that's the easy part.

I just had a little chainsawing under your window to take care of.

It must have made it hard to hear me yelling "PERRRRCIIIII" while shaking my fist. Shaking it very loudly.

Let me know when you're done with that, I've got some jackhammering out there to do, too.

Okay...I think there's someone with a leaf blower ahead of you, though.

[identity profile] xythian.livejournal.com 2005-09-14 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
Well, OK. I suppose I wouldn't want to jackhammer through leaves, anyway.

At least it's not COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE.

And the lawn-mower as soon as they were done with that?

I have a nice quiet recording studio you might be interested in.

Can you get it to my apartment by the 25th?
