Okay, so the reason there hasn't been a post in 2 days is because in the time between driving to Maryland and now, I haven't had three seconds to post. We've been really busy! But the Maryland trip was fun, and the college tours were informative. We are closer now to making important college decisions. And the best part? I got a free t-shirt! Anyway, we drove back from Maryland last night, then got up this morning and went back to Nathan's for recording studio, round 2. Most. Intense. Recording. EVER! But it was a lot of fun. We started by doing the vocal recording for the songs we did on Tuesday, then moved on to the Christmas songs that were scheduled for today (Christmas in July anyone?). After about 7 hours of recording, we finished 9 songs for our Route 66 album and about 9 songs for our Christmas album. No, I don't actually remember how many Christmas songs there were - it was a lot though! And I got to hear one of the songs afterwards, and it sounds great! I can't wait to hear the rest of them. Then after that, we got some dinner and everyone headed home. Of course, the best part of the recording session was once again the magnets on the fridge - but Nathan's chocolate cake is a close second!
So several hours and many more mosquito bites later, we have 2 new albums! I say, well worth the effort. And thanks go out to Nathan for helping us with our recordings (and for the cake)!
Tomorrow, we have a gig at a nursing home not too far from our hotel in West Orange. I forget the actual name of the place . . . I guess I should know that, shouldn't I? Oh well, my brain is a little bit fried. Looking forward to the performance though - nursing homes are always fun. More to come on this tomorrow!
Tired beyond belief,
Nicole
