Just stay away from sharp, (or blunt) objects!

I'm sure that I'd learn a lot about the arts of playing and recording. And it might extend my vocabulary of swear words too... :wink: :wink:

You don't know me from Adam but I've always looked forward to your insights and want to thank you for all that you have provided. Having turned fifty last year I understand your reasoning and wish you all the best in your endeavor. How about a blog on your experiences?

I play enough that with the bit of teaching I'm doing I don't have to work a "straight" job anymore.
I've got enough stuff written and some interest from smaller labels that I am finally putting my own "Structure that retains water" band to go into the studio and begin recording for a hopefully spring release.

I've herard the stuff you write Vic, it's killer so go for it, don't let anyone stop you.

Oh yeah and be on the look out for the new release from the Relics in stores near you spring of 08 :D]]> News teleplayer324 https://guitarnoise.forum/news/sabbatical/paged/2/#post-265166 https://guitarnoise.forum/news/sabbatical/paged/2/#post-265156 Wed, 19 Sep 2007 11:19:03 +0000
Ayway Rodders and I will miss you on the forums. Best of luck with the music mate. I'll be a regular visitor to Soundclick to listen in on your progress. See you around and maybe on hotmail too.

All the best

Either way go for it but don't stay away too long and become a stranger.

Actually, I pretty much AM working on songs around the clock - I've got a short-list (ha, that's a misnomer if ever there was one!) of about 80 - eight-oh, EIGHTY! - songs I want to record. Each of them, at the moment, consists of lyrics and maybe a melody, or a rhythm guitar part. All of them need a bass-line working out, guitar parts working out - acoustic? electric? slide?, a keyboard part and a drum track programming. Still finding my way around the drum-machine, but I'm getting there. Then each part has to be played - talking about 7-8 tracks for most songs, some even more - and recorded. One mistake and that particular cut has to be scrapped....and re-done.

I'm hoping to get about three songs a day done - more will be a bonus.

I'm not the most disciplined of people at the best of times, and I'm not at my best when trying to record...I get cranky, tense and make mistakes. I'm finished rcording for tonight, I've got several tracks with rhythm, bass and drums done - I'll finish some of them tomorrow. For now, it's a cuppa tea and an early night - it's only 00.38, but I want to be up and rockin' early......

I'll check in as and when I can.....

All the best, and thanks for all the good wishes,

:D :D :D
