Sorry about the lack of posts

Oh man. I'm really sorry for not posting in forever. So, I'm going to try to make all the missed blogs in the course of these few days before the end of the week.

10/21 jam session

Our band has changed directions, moving from a more funk style into a more indie rock style.  We finalized a song to record, and fine tuning and recording will commence shortly.  We have worked all evening long in creating improv solos and new riffs to add on to the song.  Well, we haven't been working all evening, we waited angrily for two hours for a pizza to be delivered and watched Futurama and music videos.  Overall, a productive night of jamming and creating new additions to our song, and we will be working on writing lyrics, although who will be the singer is still to be decided.

Today, I had Nick and Jonathan over to write some of the song. We worked out our final outros intros and verse into chorus bridges. We still have to work on our bridge from the chorus to the minor outro verse and adding either a third guitar/vocals/piano (haven't decided yet). Posters Will be pictured 5 seconds after this post goes up! ~Mike

10/16 Jam

We jammed again today and it was our most productive jam session to date. We came up with some great ideas, chord progressions, bass lines, all the things that are supposed to come out of a jam session. We plan to work on these ideas more on our next Google Project day which is Wednesday. We are also planning to jam for a long time on Wednesday and see if we can get a full song or most of a song out of it.

10/5 jam session

10/5-

The jam session today went really well.  We came up with some pretty good funk riffs to jam along to, and I will continue to come up with more over the next few days.  We're sounding pretty good so far... except for my Anthony Kiedis imitation voice, which needs some work. On Tuesday, we contacted Mr. Duden about using some of his recording equipment for recording our final project, and we will be working with him over the next couple months during the recording process.  As of now, we are not sure exactly which song we will be doing or if it will be original or a cover of another song by another band.  However, by the way things are looking only a few weeks into the project, I think the final product of our work will be very good.

update

We talked to a teacher at our school who knows about recording and has all the equipment, and he said he would help us when it comes time to record. We also jammed again today, and we plan to do some more on Friday.
