Getting Ready to Mix Tomorrow

I had Grammy business yesterday--specifically being on a NARAS Grammys in the Schools program at the local High School for the Performing (and Visual) Arts. We had a NARAS members' mixer last night where I got to hang, eat, drink, and meet people in the biz. I actually had a very good time.

Today, I've been working on Hollister Fracus tracks--editing before we mix tomorrow. I just finished a song call 'Power'. It is SO heavy,... While working, I suddenly realized that there was a funny thing about this editing session: Here I am doing some very good and VERY heavy music while wearing a portable EKG monitor (called a Holter moniter). Man, I hope the cardiologist that reads the output of this thing doesn't think I'm having a heart attack.

Check out how wired up I am:



Here's me monitor, mates:


I get to take this thing off before we mix (thank God). Once more song and I'm all set.

It also occurs to me that you should know that heart-wise I'm all good. Just following up on an episode of 'atrial fibrillation' earlier in the year.



OH YEAH!!!! I can't sign off without mentioning that Eileen Faxas has (had?) the Track of the Day for her song 'Vivelo' on Garageband.com (Latin Category? -- sorry I'm sketchy on this), and The Southern Backtones, in what must be some sort of record, now has the Modern Rock Track of the Week on Garageband for their song 'Forever'.

Hell yes, I love you Garageband!!!
