Saturday was Beautiful



The Black River Music & Art Fest was a success!

We rocked so hard, Josh's tongue stuck out.











And, I got to wear my happy sun dress.


It was a good day of moderately loud rock and/or roll.

while it might rain,

tomorrow's Black River Music and Art Fest is officially happening.

Which means I should shut the computer down and practice!

While away,

Summer is going so quickly. Our last tennis match is this Saturday, and our last table tennis match is Wednesday. We are trying to get the d-b album mastered before September and time is just flying.

We had narrowed down our album title to 3 ideas:

Who's Gonna Love You?
Addicted to Change
Follow the Trees

I think the more time we have, the more non-committal we are.

Last night I thought of these:

Pedal Pushers
Shower Song
No. 1
Alas, Amiss

Any thoughts?

Last Night of Studio B

Last August double-breasted set out to record 13 songs. Last night we finally finished tracking! What an interminable process this has been! At least we finished. Now onward to mixing & all the rest.

My tennis partner has been on vacation these past few days, so I've been out of my routine of getting super sweaty in my fashionable tennis skirts. Hopefully tomorrow I'll play again.

Finally, I put together some totally hokey montages of double-breasted pictures with one of our newly mixed songs. I think it's hysterical.

I have dirt on my toe

So we've taken the leap to not watch television or play video games this week. Daddy comes home today, so we'll see how he reacts to this plan.

In happy news, Kristy spent Friday getting 5 more songs mixed - that means 7 of 13 songs are ready for mastering! We put 2 of the songs up on our myspace...if you want to have a listen.

So we might take a Sunday morning stroll. It is a beautiful day in the neighborhood.

Up Date

Recording - Sunday should be the final day of vocals. Onward to mixing!

Sports - I have returned to my sporty spice inner self this summer, joining the lake Tennis and Table Tennis teams. I am getting back into, literally, the swing of things. Tonight we won our doubles Table Tennis match! I'm also working on slamming a ping pong ball.

Enlightenment - Reading "The Inner Game of Tennis," finding it useful everywhere.

Fun - Project Runway is on tonight. I forgot to DVR it during the Table Tennis match.

Cello - I practiced last on Sunday, after a really stressful weekend. I think I will pick it up again when I finish typing. I think I'm finding sports are helping me stay awake, ergo I practice more.

Outside - I did some gardening today, just before the big rain. I'll try to stop and smell them.

Last Night.

recording has been a S L O W process for double-breasted, but we are almost finished with the vocals, finally.
Of course there is album stuff to do, but for now I'll give us the thumbs up.
