Hey Everybody--- Tony here,,,
We've been having a great time here in Athens. The
scenery is beautiful and there have been lots of critter sightings.
Today we saw a red fox (Grady, you big dummy!). We've also seen deer,
redtailed hawks, wild turkeys,and our favorite visitor, the bald eagle.
The tunes have been a great mix of originals and covers. With each
tune there have been different approaches to the drum parts, grooves
and sounds. It's been fun experimenting. I brought 9 snare drums, 3
bass drums ( 60's gretsch"18, 60's slingerland"20, and a 70's slingerland "26) and a huge variety of percussion for
different effects as well as my collection of old zildjian cymbals. We've been doing mostly basic tracks so the percussion overdubs will come later. It's been really fun working with Hector Castillo. He's a really creative engineer who always gets me thinking tonally, musically, and outside the box. Cheers, TL
