I was sitting in the basement with my step son last night, watching Mythbusters, playing a little wii u, flying his remote controlled helicopter (which he got for his birthday [I think] a couple of years ago and completely forgot about it without even ever opening the box… the downside of living in two houses, methinks) when I took out my new 12-string and noodled for a bit before snapping a couple of camera+ pics. When I posted them here I wrote that RPM is coming soon. 32 days.
I have also said not long ago that I was going to make a mini project out of four old songs. I have expanded that a little. Three nights ago, my step son was in bed and my step daughter was enjoying the 30 minutes she gets to stay up after he went to bed. I was exhausted. I couldn’t keep my eyes open, but I wanted to make sure she got to bed at the right time so I forced myself to stay awake.
How did I do it?
Garageband for iPad. I came up with a bass riff and a drum groove. Just like I’m going to be doing ad nauseum come February. So I decided to make a project out of it. This was Friday night, so there were five days left in 2013. I decided I would come up with a riff or two (or three) a day for the last five days of the year, and then while working on the four old songs during the month of January, I would also finish off the five new songs. the difference is that the old songs need to be 100% Garageband for Mac, while the five new songs will be 100% Garageband for iPad.
What do you think the chances of me finishing any of this are?
0%? Sounds plausible.
