"One Take" Morris?
I recorded my voice demo today. I'm very excited that I finally got around to doing it and that it's not going to cost me an arm and a leg. I almost didn't get to record today, though.
At my show this morning my microphone decided not to work, so I had to project my voice to the farthest corner of the gym, and my voice was not having it. By the end of the show I was hoarse and tired. I wanted to throw my mike on the ground and stomp on it for giving out on me, but it was my fault that I hadn't looked at it and tried to find a solution before today's show. In the end, after a few hours of vocal rest and some hot tea, my voice was back and ready to roll.
I arrived at the studio (located in the basement of the engineer's house, but it really wasn't creepy at all) at 1:40 or so after calling my coach after realizing I had the wrong address. His dog was hiding under the table becasue I was "new people" and I was in her house, but I saw her on the way out. It was the first studio I'd been in that was actually cold instead of blazing hot.
I don't know how many spots I recorded (there were several), but I think I was only at the mike for an hour. It was painless and fun, and I hope the demo yields a crapload of work so I don't ever have to get a "real" job again.
