I'm glad you did too. [img]smile.gif[/img] I did find the humour in it.
Thanks for your comments re. the song. Yeah I played the guitar. I did everything on it except played the drums. Mixed it. Recorded it. Sang it. A man, a laptop, some guitars and a mic.
I had a loop overlaid with programming before (I do play drums as well) and was never happy with the result. Having Ken play on it gave it such a lift I just had to rerecord the guitars... they WERE fun to play in.
As per the $$ yeah. Rips all around, but I knew what I was looking at. I also reasoned that if it sold a million copies, that would be about $300 000 which was a heck of a lot more than I had at the time.
But it never did. That particular record got caught in a political mess. "Megalomaniac manager destroys band."
Long ago I decided to make records to please myself. Then I would have a full musical life with lots of songs I like, regardless of whether they sell, make money or whatever. Simply being able to become your own audience is an incredible reality only the technology of this age allows.
I also learned from each one. I made sure I took notes (mentally) when doing the first two records I did. They were a free education from some serious "gurus" in many ways. I was able to ask questions, hear and see changes, understand concepts and causes and demystify the whole process.
I wouldn't change anything. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Anyhow, very glad you hung in there. [img]smile.gif[/img] I do actually like you you know.
