A lot of news...

Hi, everyone!

Sorry I've been away, but there has been a lot to deal with in the past couple of weeks. So I'll divide into several posts...first, the studio saga!!

In the last 3 weeks, we lost our date at Avatar, then lost Avatar all together, got a date at Legacy Studios, lost that date as well, then lost our engineer, Fernando Lodeiro, were a whole week without a studio and without an engineer...and finally got another date back at Avatar, with Fernando at the wheel! So, to sum it all up, we are back at Avatar Studios, on April 18th, one week after the original planed date.

The whole thing happened because a very big and popular band, which we are not allowed to name, booked the whole studio on the week we wanted it. But it turned out they are nice guys and let us have Studio C on that Saturday, which ended up being better then Studio B and also better than the room at Legacy we were going to get.

We just went to visit the studio again this weekend, this time with the whole team: me, Chris, Jon, Fernando and a new addition to the team, Juan, our Director of Photography. We discussed the need of lighting and other equipment, and started to plan out how everything is going to be positioned in the room, in order to have the best mix between sound quality and a video-friendly environment, without interfering to much on the vibe of our jams. It went pretty well, and everyone was pleased.

Now, the next time we are in New York will be to record!!

Peace!
