First day at the studio is over. Most of the recording's done, actually.
There are probably a few little tweaks left to do here and there, but all in all the second EP is looking like a success (touch wood).
We got up this morning and set off for World's End Studios in Orpington - a building which turned out very different from what we expected - in crisp summer morning weather. What happened in the studios with the wonderfully nice Martin Kingston is mere legend, but when we emerged as men who had recorded the vast majority, if not all, of their fantastic second EP, it rained rivers at us. That's when we knew we'd done good. When the weather is as apocalyptic as your last song, you know you can be proud.
And I stumbled into my house and slept on the sofa. Lord knows what George and Jonathan are doing, but I should imagine it's something similar. You'll have the EP by Friday, I reckon. Peace out.

...Of the cover of our second EP. A beautiful creation both visually and the audio encased within, I feel. We'll see how it turns out later this week. But things are looking good. If not great. You will find this nowhere else online. I'm not sure how much you care, but to me it's a big deal.
Also, it was our bassist's birthday today. As in, the 20th. Everyone wish him happy birthday, he'll love it.
...Or so they would have us believe.
We gave a little demo' at a primary school this week, promoting taking up musical subjects in secondary school. The kids loved it, and we loved that they did. Some kids said they wanted to be rock stars when they were adults, while others commented on the whiteness of my teeth. "It's because I clean them regularly", I said. Such a good role model.
Anyway, all the staff attended the "show", and gazing across them all you would've thought you were at a WI meeting. Every staff member except for one was female. Are we living in such a prejudiced world, so perverted that we assume every man who wants to make kid's lives better must be a paedophile? It dawned on me what a horrible society we live in, where everything has to be related to sex.
We're all human.
We'll book up a studio for our next EP soon. Some names and tracks have been thrown around, but nothing's concrete yet. Look out for it, you'll be the first ones to hear it.
