Recording Every One Of Me

Well, the recording process is coming along. Putting down the percussion tracks went reasonably painlessly and now I have moved along to the vocals. I tried thinking about the different heads I have to wear in order to play the different parts of the music. The bass player is always nervous with sweaty hands wanting to get the parts down and have them be perfect. The keyboardist is like, "Wow that sound is like so cool. Let me see if that works in this part." The drummer is confident and can sit there and work out his parts and play them while thinking about everything besides what he is doing. The vocalist... Well, let me tell you. She can be a real temperamental, perfectionist bitch. But, so far, she has not killed anyone... yet. All and all, every one of me in this musical project has one thing in common and that is they all think that everything I ever did always sucked. That is why every one of me keeps on trying to get it right.
