Smash Studios R

2/10/2003

Smash Studios R again, with no Trister but a MiniT.

Another night in Smash Studios R.  Mini-T was there and we had no guests.  In addition, Andy T was out on business so therefore it was a small room.  We played low as Rich used the Steinway miced with the Neumann. It sounded pretty good in the room and I assume pretty good on the tape.

It was a snowy night and I got there at 5:00 when Rich and MiniT arrived for their pre-jam rehearsal.  Dave joined them later.  The good thing about it was I got completely setup by 6:00, taped the duo and met Kevin at the Tex-Mex Chinese place for some fajitas.  Got the Donuts and we up and jamming by 7:15.  This made for lots of songs and a night that would never end.  We played lots, played well, had the nice piano, Kevin got a new Bass head, I played a Twin with no effects and Dave played a minimal drum set.  Lots of fun.

For reference this was the recording setup.
