I did my first session with my new mic tonight. I couldn't be more pleased. I recorded some violins and acoustic guitars with it, and was able to leave off all EQ and compression. By the way, I ended up getting a Neumann M149. I had never actually seen one in real life, and was surprised by how large it was. I took a picture with my phone so you can see:
It's almost as big as the body of the ukelele. I'm pretty excited to start retracking all my vocals with it.
I have a bunch of pictures from Hawaii, but I'm having computer problems and will have to wait to upload them. One thing I will mention, is the coffee. It was some of the best coffee I've tasted (and I've had some pretty good coffee).
I'm not sure if I've mentioned this or not, but I'm going out on tour with Sleeping At Last again in about a month. Here are some of the dates so far:
|
The Luminary Center for the Arts | St. Louis, Missouri | ||
|
Ida Red Boutique | Tulsa, Oklahoma | ||
|
The Backroom (behind Bridgeway) | Oklahoma City, Oklahoma | ||
|
Common | Amarillo, Texas | ||
|
Mission Community Church (in the student center) | Gilbert, Arizona | ||
|
Hotel Cafe | Los Angeles, California | ||
|
The Walnut Room | Denver, Colorado | ||
|
Everyday Joe’s | Fort Collins, Colorado | ||
|
Murdock Theatre | Wichita, Kansas | ||

Other things I'm into at the moment:
1. Project Runway Australia
2. iPhone Photo Apps
3. A Clockwork Orange
4. French Press Coffee
5. Diet Cream Soda
6. The Ricky Gervais Show
7. The Pacific
Thanks for reading!

Woo! You're coming to AZ! And I don't have an iPhone but the only reason I'd want one is for the photo apps. Those things are so stinking awesome.
