Charlie Barthelemy is not only my best friend, he's also a damn good bass player. He bought all these pedals, like the big muff, which we used on Aquarium Filled with Barium and Vintage Wine... It's so cool. It's like a song off of PJ Harvey's To Bring You My Love. Hey Blake, since you're the only one that reads this... Let's make every song sound like a song off of PJ Harvey's To Bring You My Love, ok? I think Christian Girl would sound good with the under water vocals that are on I'm Just Working For the Man.
Charlie is also a great person and I love him. And one of the songs has his name in the title! It's going to be the first song we play at our show this Saturday. You should come to our show. The song is called Charlie's Spanish Harlem Incident and it's about Charlie seeing a man get shot in Spanish Harlem. The lyric goes, "Charlie said he saw a man get shot in Spanish Harlem..." It's not going to be the first song on the album, though. Probably third from the last. It's going to have horns and noise of people from Blake's roof. Speaking of Blake, you should visit his blog at http://thehomesickcollective.blogspot.com/. It has all the cool techy stuff he's doing on the album, like the list of microphones he used on different instruments. For the finger picking acoustic he apparently used the AT4060 & 4038 with the API preamp. I don't know what that means, but I do remember two black microphones being there. That's some fancy shit. Sounds great whatever he did. I think. Don't have the rough demos yet, which is probably good because I will not be able to do anything (such as work or school) once I have these.
