- Did slight tweaks to mixes of “Heliopause” and “Possession” for upcoming release.
- Was hoping to get back to work on musical script but didn’t have the energy. Instead made a to-do list for the scripting. Made it more doable for when I do feel like it.

- Final mix and master of “Spuds”
- Final edit of video.
- I’m still weighing some ideas on releasing it.
Doing research on Bandcamp’s subscription feature. It definitely has an appeal: steady income and the opportunity to share songs in more bite-sized chunks than just releasing full albums every year or two.

- “Spuds” – recorded guitars, vocals, recorders, etc.
- Found a fun vocal vamp to do at the end for a little variety

- “Spuds”
- Recorded placeholder bass and guitar
- Recorded drum kit
- The idea being that I will record a bunch of old tunes throughout the coming year until I hit 50. This is probably a dumb idea.

Slow week creatively. Needed recharging time.

- Had 2.5 hour chat with Greg about one scene – the big climax scene.
- A lot happens in that scene and it was taking too long to get to all that action so we removed the song from the beginning of the scene – chop!
- The scene also ends kind of limp. The epilogue that follows has the big musical number. We’re thinking of dropping the epilogue and making this scene the last one and putting the final number here. The plot has played itself out so let’s wrap it up.

- Laid down a very rough piano part for “FK” to send her and Myra for feedback.
- Not being modest but I’m not the right piano player for this idea. I hope I got the idea across.
- Any decent soul/blues/gospel player could bang this out in minutes.
The show I did last week with Tim is being broadcast tonight (now?) but I was too wrapped up in DC’s tune to listen in. I’m sure it’s fine.
