Jeff, Ross, and I spent last night in 'the stood' last night tracking "Of Kings and Rulers". It went well. Danny Bourgeois (our Origin engineer) laid down some great drum trax for us at the Pumpkin Patch on Tuesday and we brought em' to Studio 54and began the instrument tracks. After a few listens to sync up with Danny's thumpin' kick, Ross nailed a few bass trax and it sounds great. I then laid down the first (of many) guitar rhythm tracks and threw in some other spicy lick tidbits. Sunny will throw in his own rhythm trax this morning and J will come in sometime next week to put in his turnaround riff and some keys parts. Was a good start to a great song. Kinda sounds like Delirious-meets-Coldplay with a Muse-ish ending.
Sounds Like (in my own opinion):
Coldplay - Yellow
Delirious - Grace Like a River
Muse - Invincible
Danny also tracked drums for "Ever" and Ross will come back into the studio sometime this weekend and lay down some bass. Sunny also left "Drums of Justice" (maybe my favorite track of the new tunes) with Danny and we may be able to get those trax done in his own time. Man, that guy can play drums.
We'll be doing some more rehearsing on Tuesday. Can't wait. I'm getting excited to play live again. Yesssssssss....
My wife, Catherine, was in St. Louis last week and got to see David Crowder Band play. I guess they're amazing. She met him after the show. Lucky.

Notice the power-sweat stain from his ginormous goatee. Pure rock-star.
