Fruity Loops (music update)

I just went to Guitar Center today with Stephen Reichelt and i was looking at the gear for when i want to do my A Firefly Stare songs live... looks like some pretty basic stuff that i could get used to. The guy talked to me about the sampling and stuff for the midi synths, mostly stuff i had already figured, like i'll need to make most of the music beforehand.

Right now i'm downloading the latest demo of FL Studios on my PC (Jeff's getting me a cracked full version sometime soon) so i can work on beats and melodies and stuff at home, instead of taking a trip to the studio. I think Things will go a lot faster this way.

Plus, i'm planning on putting my Firefly songs as a 4-track ep up on the iTunes store whenever i finish vocals for "Visit You". The other three songs are finished, and i've aleady started writing new songs. I don't think i can ever just stop.

Well, i have to go to work soon so i gotta take a shower. Aaron just got back a couple nights ago from Nebraska and Stephen Jones just left for Phoenix for an open house at the Conservatory of Recording Arts. Cool!

I'm On A Boat!

This has got to be one of the funniest things i've seen in a good minute.
