the Bed-Time Procession

friday morning. i think today is payday, which is good.. 'cause the van's in the shop, i just paid auto insurance, and rent is due. wow.

and yet, we've still been recording - i got a new one last night, so far just acoustic guitar, but it's promising.. and i put down drumset on 3 or 4 different songs, including one that's really kinda haunting. very exciting.

but for today: 'the Bed-Time Procession'.. it started with these chords on piano, which i found very radiohead-esque. i thought i could turn it into something like pyramid song, but with all my limitations.. instead, once we started working it developed into a whole other thng, with emily putting a couple of trumpets down and i started playing with some loops.
at one point, this song had a very jazzy drums with brushes and cymbals effect going on, but when i took 'em out, the whole piece sounded much more regal.

soo - i gotta go make some money, pickup the van, pay rent, and then come back home, hopefully finish a song or two and eat dinner. a full day.
