For the Record


hanging about the studio

all day

for the record



(it is a recording studio out many miles from the city)
(the people were friendly)
(and a dog had an endless appetite for playing 'fetch')

Yes, the dogs who play fetch. They will bring you the ball but won't give you the ball. They seem to think that with repetition the game increases in exitement and energy...

I wonder if the endless repetition of playing fetch is anything like making a record?

hototogisu - it is very unpretentious, isn't it?

pat - yes, the recording is for an upcoming benefit event where several bands are playing (not at the same time) and each group is contributing a couple songs. We have one about trained - armed - dolphins that get away in a hurricane. Going to be a major hit, I'm sure. Maybe I can get permission to post it, we'll see.

ryan - the dog was grudging about dropping the slimy tennis ball, which I then kicked off the top of a small hill. He was pretty excited about retrieving it, and later went away somewhere. I think there are similarities with the recording process, except perhaps for the guy running the computer all day, doing multiple takes and patching sections on the fly.
