I just posted this to the RPM Challenge website. Just checking in:
It feels like I’m off to a slow start but I don’t know if that’s accurate or not.
I have this vague idea of splitting the album into two, one being my usual three piece rock band kinda thing, and the other being an acoustic guitar/hand percussion/sax/voice thing. The acoustic stuff will probably fall by the wayside but for now it’s still on.
I’ve got two songs sketched out for the rock side and one sort of unfocused idea for the acoustic. The rock things are okay, the acoustic thing is garbage and should really end up in the trash.
That’s it so far. I had a gig on the 1st and I was very pleased with the way I played. Here’s hoping that carries through the month and I nail a few decent guitar parts.
I am hoping to get everything setup in my little corner of the bedroom tonight. Two amps, two mics, and the 8 input USB interface. If I can sneak in some recording too that would be great. We’ll see.
