So, as fate would have it we are not going to LA just yet. This is very good news in light of how the situation has evolved. Mike Daly (the new producer) is coming here! And when I say here I mean he is flying from LA into Asheville NC to do pre-production with us in our house, The Enemy Lovers house. He’s also arriving in time to make it out to our show at Stella Blue on March 26. This is playing out better than we could have planned, as usual.
Originally we were planning to up and go to LA without ever having even met this new guy. Now looking back that seems crazy. But with all that has happened we thought it was just part of the roller coaster ride we have been riding since February! It didn’t feel right. It felt rushed, but it was rushed, so we were going with it. The original plan would have caused us to have to cancel four shows and miss Steven and I’s birthdays! We were supposed to fly to LA tomorrow, March 19 and spend just under two weeks in the studio, then fly home on April 1.
Then at the last minute it turns out that everyone was having scheduling difficulties. And when Jamie called me saying “keep your show at Stella Blue” and “we’ve made a new plan” I was instantly relieved. This means somehow we got the best of both worlds. We still get to do pre-production on our new music, we can still do our shows, and not even leave our families. Plus Mike will be able to see The Enemy Lovers live in our hometown glory. I couldn’t have asked or demised a plan better than the one in effect right now.
Funny thing is with our previous recording plan of ‘5 Days. 5 Songs.’ we had everybody involved with every phone call and every little detail. Now with all the new happenings no one has a clue. We’re a little gun shy to say the least. Now if you are coming to the show in at Stella Blue you will be involved like never before, there with us and our new producer. That will be the first time we meet him in person, with you. We are really excited about our new path and have high hopes! Thanks for reading this whole blog entry and thanks for being a fan.
