I re-started worked on the new novel yesterday. Wish me luck.

I just finished re-recording the lead vocals for the verses of The Boat Song, and bass vocal part for the bridge. Paul had tracked the rhythm guitar last night. He will put the harmony vocals on the verses, and the treble vocal part on the bridge, in about a half hour from now, when he returns from picking up Luke Bergen. Luke might be persuaded to put on a ‘sub’ bass vocal on the bridge, if he can reach the notes. After that Paul will noodle with the bridge, adding; Hammond Organ bass pedals? more vocals? choir? - whatever is necessary to get the gospel/blues/country feel we want. Then mixing, mastering, and posting on this site.

Tonight I’ll be back at Gordies open mike. I’ll give them Dead End Street (Kinks), and Give Up (me). Anyone curious should get there early to get a seat. The real show starts at 8:00PM, with open mike to follow at about 9:15PM ish. The coffee house I hope to get going at Churchill Park United Church should, with luck, be like Gordie’s. So if you’re curious, check out Gordie’s at Gordon King Unted Church, on Coburg Street, left off Henderson Highway, just north of Johnson.
