~ It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog. ~

I've been writing out lyrics on the PC to all the songs on the CD this morning. By the time you get your completed CD (manufacturing, pressing, shrink wrapped) IN YOUR HANDS... it's amazing when you realize how many times you've heard your own songs! I mean it's OVER and OVER and OVER again! It must be in the 10's of thousands on this one because a couple of these songs were written in 1996! Wow.

Anyway, I'm getting prices for CD Pressing, artwork, merchandise, etc. Yesterday I had a mix that was too loud for the mastering engineer (Andy) and I had to open it up on my MAC (all of this record was recorded digitally) and pull the level down only to realize that I had deleted a couple of acoustic guitar tracks. They were out of tune a bit so I figured, ahhh, delete em... you won't need them later right, the mix is done?! DAMN. No big deal though. I re-recorded them in about 10 minutes and just sent the revised mix to Andy. Only took me about 6 hours to do the adjustments. ;-)

Now I'll sing that song that I thought I would get to yesterday. Hehe...
