Hatchford Hotel
- Last night’s rehearsal was canceled due to a cast member getting Covid and another losing a babysitter. It happens.
The dominoes fell from there.
- I rescheduled Chris’ trip up for EoS vocals to 3 or 4 weeks later so that I could…
- Reschedule DC’s recording session that was canceled last week due to my own Covid scare for next weekend (If I hadn’t, I would’ve had to push her out two more weeks.)
- I left next Saturday open because shit happens

- Bob came over to track bass for “How To Do Nothing”

Studio re-organization day. Added second monitor (oooh!). Added side shelf for audio interface.
DonnCherie
- I spent time over the last few days trying to make the original guitar track for “A New Day” sound good. Nope.
- Re-recorded acoustic guitar with new Seagull guitar and better mic set up.
- Started new mix with that new guitar – so much easier.

- Final mix of “Chaos” – at least I think so. It’s frickin’ killer.
- Improved mix of “For Keeps” – much cleaner and clearer – less mud.
