The project is coming along nicely (for those of you that didn't know there was a "project"). I am basically working a Digi 001 and the NT-1 at this point.
The plan:
5 strangers (ok, independent friends of mine that dont know each other), picked to play in a band (to kind of mess around with about 15-20 songs I've written) see what happens when.............ok, I'm done.
The point:
I'm not going to pretend I'm some rock star waiting to happen. I'm more interested in seeing what a bunch of really talented schmos like myself could do over a 6-7 month period if they take my songs...dismantle them, make them their (our) own, and then use our various talents to document the process.
The gear: a couple taylor acoustic guitars my fender jazz bass Ange's amazing voice Nate's cool guitar playing Kyle's drum kit a baby grand piano Reason (sampling and drum program) our hands and feet probably a borrowed Telecaster (thanks in advance, Adam) and my sweet guitar rig financed by a "few" Ross King gigs. etc.
The end product:
I'm hoping that we can end up with 12 songs of mine and maybe 3-4 songs we do as a group. We also have two side projects: a worship ep and a wedding ep. The first being an expression of our love for God...the latter is a "gift" for a member of "the band" getting married next summer.
I'll keep you posted.
