Inching closer plus shows

The record is very close. Feeling lethargic with this one at the moment. Tracking is done, so I just have to mix. For some reason I enjoy that least (not that I don't enjoy it). The most fun thing ever is just endlessly doing guitar overdubs. I can't decide whether to leave the record as is or add a shit load of trombone and keyboard...maybe I'll do both and then ask people their opinions. That sounds like a good idea, but I probably won't do it. Adding all that stuff is fun and it works, but it kinda takes away from the vibe, and this one was a definite party record. Strange though, something about the party felt sad and rushed. Maybe it's because we're all approaching thirty and can't "go" like we used to. Or maybe it's the fact that we still "go" like we used to and we're almost thirty. Or maybe because I was drunker than everyone else and keep frantically leap-frogging from person to person, chatting but not really connecting. One of the three. I'm currently fighting an encroaching virus because I drink too much on weekends (and sometimes weekdays) and listening to this "chillwave" stuff everyone's been talking about. I dig it. School-wise, I have the most difficult month of my life coming up, so it would probably be best for my sleeping patterns and stomach if I finish mixing the last song "Millions", remix the two songs that need a bit of tweaking, and send them off to Mills to get mastered.

Looks like there will be thirteen or fifteen songs on the record with a few jokes tossed in at the end.

Soon, my babes. This month hopefully, and April at the very very latest.

Release show is April 30 @ The Drake Underground w/ The Flying Museum Band

My other band GIANTS is playing @ Siesta Nouveaux this Saturday w/ Animal Faces, who are amazing.

The Flower City 3 are playing a house show at my house on April Fool's Day (no foolin).

Sleep For The Nightlife are back in two weeks. Get ready.
