tomorrow

Well, it turns out nothing is going to happen tomorrow (Tuesday) after all. Quiggy's at some camp and Eric's going to the beach, so... That about wraps that up. Uh, I'll post the next prospective date(s), as I always do. Okay, then.

Sunday (updated) (again)

Well, I also have a hankering to record. I was thinking that Sunday might be good, but of course I need the others' approval as well. We'll probably just be needing Eric, Quiggy, and me for this one, although others can come if we (E. Q. and I.) decide we need them. All right, so Sunday, then, maybe. Right.

Update: Well, Sunday's not going to work it would seem. Instead, we're going to try planning for Tuesday. All right? Not Sunday. Tuesday. Oh, and I also still have to ask my parents, so.... Right, plan for Tuesday, but don't stake your life on it.

Another update: Okay, so, yeah, I checked it out with the authority figures and Tuesday is good. However, I'd just like to repeat that we're probably just going to need Eric, Quiggy, and me. Unless Eric says differently, because I am but a humble bass player, incapable of making decisions on my own. Eric's the visionary, so I let him make all the decisions.

Tuesday

Well, on Tuesday we had another recording session with Eric, Tucker, Quiggy, Sporko, Gabo, and me. I felt sorry for Gabo, there wasn't much for her to do. Gus missed this recording session too, which is mildly irksome. It doesn't matter that much because we didn't get a whole lot done. In fact, the only thing we actually recorded, something that Quiggy played, got erased accidentally. So, in fact, we didn't actually get anything done. It was still great fun, though. There was some madness when it was raining and we all ran and frolicked outside. I got drenched and covered in mud (thank you, Gabo!), but it was awesome. For a bit it was like being in a Beatles movie, like the scene from a Hard Day's Night where they're all running in the field. Eric stayed after-hours and we messed around with audioblogging (the results of which are below) and also on AIM. Even if we didn't get much done, it was still good to get together. I don't know when we'll next meet, but here's hoping that it's soon.

By the way, seeing as I am the one always writing these sort of things, does this also make me sort of the band journalist? Just wondering. It's all about the credit, as Eric said.

the King and I

Well, Eric came over at around 12 today and we worked until 6, recording and messing around. We got most of another song done and we worked on our previous one too. I think we will have an album done by the end of the summer. It was cool, though, we got a lot done. We're recording tomorrow, too, so everybody in Ted should show up. All right? 11 to 6? Be there or be a rectangular thingy!

the time

Well, why don't we try what we did before. Let's say you just show up as close to 11 as possible and leave as late as, say, 6. How's that sound with you people?

Tuesday

What times Tuesday? I think we all need to know this.

Tuesday

Well, looks like we're really going to try to get together on Tuesday. Does that work for everybody? (Hint: say "yes.") Okay? Tuesday. Tuesday. Tuesday. That goes for all members of Ted. And keep checking this blog for updates and whatnot.

That's my house on Tuesday. Right?

monday or tuesday

right, you cant have the practice saturday, and sundays no good for me either ::cough paintball cough:: so your gonna have to plan the thing on monday or tuesday. both are good for me, but not sunday!!!

Monday

Well, we're not doing it tomorrow. I haven't heard back from anybody, except from people (okay one person) saying they couldn't do it, so don't bother showing up tomorrow. I'm going to try for Monday, I think. That gives us all a bit more time.

recording session

All right, I'm putting this post up as an unofficial invite to get together for another recording session tomorrow. I was thinking basically the same time slot, 11-6 or so. As I realize this is something of short notice, it could be postponed to whenever if that is more convenient for people. Or it could just be part of Ted. Anyway, we need to get together. My house, bring whatever equipment you need.

Ted practice/recording

Well, it's taken me long enough to write it up, but here it finally is:
On Saturday, Eric (lead guitar), Tucker (guitar), Quiggy (clarinet, keyboards), Spork (groupie, drums), and I (bass) ventured into my studio to make Ted history. We stayed down there for five to six hours, practicing and recording. We ended up with most of one song recorded, and let me say, it sounds pretty good. We're recording using my iMac and some other equipment. We've found GarageBand to be a great tool for recording. Anyway, Eric just comes up with more and more ideas for songs, so you can be sure that Ted will be getting together in the future for more sessions like this.

get together

Calling all members of Ted! We should be getting together at my house for practice/recording at around 11 today until as long as you can stay. If you need directions, I suggest you look online for them, because I'm no good at them. Anyway, I'll be on AIM if you need me for anything else.
