We now have 18 tracks mixed by Bob Clearmountain!  We finished tracking last Friday, and Bob was hot on our heels with the mixes. He was already mixing tracks we'd finished earlier, while we forged ahead to finish the rest. He would have passed us for sure if we hadn't had some shipping delays getting him the raw materials. Bob really brought the songs to life. We knew he would.  I am so frickin excited about these new songs... well, it's ridiculous.  I can not wait to get them out to the world.  In fact I may not.  I may just post them all in a euphoric haze.  So far, the feedback from the tracks has been incredible.  The few close pals I've handed them to are freaking out.  It's a very nice feeling.  After tracking Friday, Ty hopped in to my plane with me, and we flew up to my cottage where our families were waiting.  We had a great weekend of BBQ, and boating (God's Combo).  It was Ty's first time in my plane, and he didn't seem freaked out about the fact that we flew right over my crash site for the approach to the lake... Thanks for the confidence Ty!  The record release plan is falling in to place now.  I can't wait to be playing all of this stuff live.  We've been playing a bunch of new songs at the handful of shows we've been doing.  It's just where our heads are right now.  So much fun.  It's going to be be really cool, and challenging readopting a bunch of the old material too.  So far, we've just been winging it, but when we manage to slot in a few reheawwrwii... rehwaahhhh... rehearsaaaaaaahhhh.  See, BnL is sort of like Fonzie.  He can't say sorry, and we can't do that thing where you get together, and actually run through some of your songs!!  We will though, and then it's going to be killer.  We have lots of cool plans already.  I'm going to go jump in the lake while it's not raining for 15 mins!
