Plus the "You won't part with yours either" ads... My favorite wall art is the red parker bodyguard. some of the other stuff is a bit hokey, but I never got around to freshening it up a bit. Its a comfortable space tho.

there's me thinking you had a spare dakota red body just lying around!

it looks like a lovely space. I find it's always nice to have some natural light in the place, even at the expense of isolation from outside noise and stuff. the studios in uni are mostly underground, you can get a nice CRT tan in there ;)

Hmm, this is seriously tempting, especially concidering I put together a Demo CD a month of my own tunes anyway (often exceeding 14).

SLOOOOOOOW.....

I spent all day yesterday coming up with the intro track to the album  which I'd thought about alot - and upon careful reflection upon playback - its not good enough... so back to the drawing board for track one. I wrote something else that was raw and loose and kinda fun, and my local music critics (who have great taste) weren't enthusiastic  :( - but it'll probably be a keeper since I like it.  In general my workflow is more of meander and layer until something special happens, and yesterday it just didn't happen.

All in all, failure is not an option.....
