Day Four, I didn’t get a whole of work done. I was working on one of the songs, and I kept hearing a Bari-sax in the mix. We used to have a Bari-sax player in the band but he got old and had to be put down.
Actually, I couldn’t face taking him to the vet like some Nazi train conductor, so I just drove him deep into the woods, tossed his favorite tennis ball for him to chase down and ran back to the car and beat it before he got back.
I had contemplated leaving him on an ice flow, like a proud and ancient Eskimo, but I wasn’t sure where to find an ice flow in Duxbury bay and really, are the Eskimo that proud to begin with?
None of this solved my sound problem, so I emailed an Contrabassoon I knew about. We’ll have to see what he says. After a fine, fine lunch of beef stew and Saltines, which my wife whipped up in the kitchen while I looked up how to spell ‘Contrabassoon’, I designed a t-shirt for the CD. Hey what’s the use of doing something if you’re not going to promote the hell out of it, right?
I’ll do some real work tomorrow, I swear.
