For a second straight Tuesday, we (Mike, myself, and Rook') were able to get into the studio and plug in. Good things usually happen, at least in my mind, when we do this. This past Tuesday was no exception. I don't know exactly what it is, but we fair pretty well when we want to. I mean, some of these little things that we end up playing, sound really nice...very decent. Of course, I am a little bias in my opinion, but I try to think back and keep an honest opinion. When I think back, I like what I hear.
I think that a lot of it stems from us genuinely having fun. When I say that, I mean in every aspect of it. We enjoy hanging out together and joking around, we enjoy being in the studio space (and it is finally decorated up a bit!), and I think that we enjoy making music together. All of that adds up. It really does. We have been able to keep it that way ever since we all decided on this. It hasn't felt like "a job" or hard work persay...at least not like it felt at times in our previous experience in a band. I hope to maintain this for as long as we can. You know, keep it free of stress, worries, anything negative. I think as long as it stays fun, then there shouldn't be any of this.
When we do create something and play, I think that so far,we have been our best when it is real mellow and soft. I don't really know why this is, but it has just happened that way. Sure, we still have a lot of work in front of us, but that is the way that it has just worked out. I don't know what this says about the type of band, or the type of music that we are going to continue to make, but for right now, it is what it is. I really don't know what my ultimate goal is, as far as the music goal and what style, but I just want to continue working on it and continue to "evolve". I think that we have grown a bit already, musically, and that it both surprising and wonderful. This will no doubt continue if we keep working at it. Now, if we can only get a consistant streak going on rehearsals, we will be a lot better off!
It all will happen, I know it will. The more we get in there, the better we will get, the sooner we are out playing, and the "blogs" will be more frequent! Can't wait until next Tuesday!
