Subject: Ain't So Cool Anymore

Hi!
We laid down basic tracks for Ain't So Cool. As hard as digital is for me, it sounds pretty good. I hadn't recorded in a studio in maybe 10 years, and of course Gary, who owns The Batcave, is still mastering the transition to digital, and Mick, who practicaly built the place were at it over the this and thats... Sal from Milk n' Cookies played bass. He's great. A gentle giant. A pleasure to get to work with him.
Boy, me in a recording studio... As they're getting the levels, mike placements, wires, bla bla bla worked out, I go back in time looking for the bottle, coke and dope etc... I had to take the elevator downstairs and walk over to Union Sq to breath three times. What a piece of work, 'eh??? Kept remembering Sinatra at Cherokee Studios. He showed up, did two takes and said "that's great", then split. That's what I call making records..

"Please Your Honor, I'm as guilty as can be! He said - Get out of this courtroom and go plant a tree..."
from ain't so cool anymore

How awesome is this! The world will finally get to hear what they've been missing all these years. SWEEET!!
