Kenton bringing his game (I would say A-game, but thats the only kind he has)
Ryan drummed so fast on "New Umbrella" that he was blurry - Note to indie musicians -Make sure the metronome click-track in the headphones isn't so loud that it gets picked up on the recordings of the drum tracks - one of the many things I've learned the hard way.
Judging by the capo position, I think I was working on "Mindy" here - I'm playing my bread-and-butter at-home first-ever acoustic guitar that my parents got me for my birthday in 1998.
Kenton recorded directly into the computer (not into a microphone which would pick up any noise), so he could jam along with the play-back of the other tracks. I would listen from my kitchen or family room and run downstairs when I heard an idea I wanted to keep or explore. As he ripped his piano solo at the end of "Drop These Blues", I knew what I was hearing performed live would be on the record.
