I have to say that Richard redeemed himself last night. We finished all instrumentation, minus an acoustic song, and started on vocals. I was getting a little worried, because I was adding all these little guitar parts that just sounded like they were going to stick out. Richard started doing a rough mix while Jason was doing his vocals (which sounded awesome), and then he called us to the booth to listen. I was blown away. It was just a rough mix, but it sounded freakin amazing (in my opinion). Everything sounded smooth, the guitars are tough and well blended, the drums are thick, all is good.
We should finish everything up by next Friday, hopefully. Then it's off for mastering and to then the factory.
We've already had some purchases from the Ann Arbour store, and I think those limited edition EPs are going to sell out. We hope to order some newer shirts by the 1st of March with that sweet design from Hydragraphik. We have to sell about half of the "Leaves" shirts first though.
Anyways, I was so psyched to be hearing the music last night. I was a dork and kept high-fiving Will and Jason. What can I say, I was excited.
