On the way...

Erika is still working on the album.  Last week I dropped off the current CD to Tana's friend Brett (drummer from the band Rancid) who's been around the house a bit.  He's been into producing music for some time now and he's got some great equipment to monitor the music with.  When I got home from work yesterday Erika and Brett were talking about what hardware/ audioware to run it through.  Overall he thought it was rocking, vocals really at great levels cutting through.  His main feedback was he wanted to hear the snare pop more.  Thought the drums sounded a bit "dark" but good.  Made my night sorta getting the feedback from a credible musician who worked in the industry and from the punk side of things too.

Been researching CD packaging options and still looking for album names.

Here's the thing.  I'm not sure this thing will be done by the middle of August.  There's a really good chance it will, but just in case, we're going to have a release party regardless.  The things may not be printed and done, but we'll be able to listen to it and celebrate the work we all put into it.

I'll be getting an evite going for a shindig at my place sometime around the 17th.  Shay, how long are you in town for?
