Finally went back to the Burg yesterday for more songconstruction. We have roughly seven hugely undeveloped and incomplete songs now, which will probably end up being two or three one day on a final album. But it feels good to say we have so many. Matt and Charles even discovered that they had almost the same idea for a song yesterday. I was happy and thought it would be cool to put them in the same song, but it turns out they were even too alike for that. So instead, Matt and Charles will go to the shirtless mud-wrestling pit again, just like always happens in this situation: two ideas enter, only one will leave.
Charles has plans this week to forsake work and all other obligations to stay up in the studio/jamspace/house where he grew up. He's going to get away from it all and just write some tunes. That sounds pretty fantastic to me, and I wish him well. Perhaps he'll finally write that sequel to Sleeper we've all been waiting for.
Matt seems ready to invest even more money in the home studio. I wonder if he realizes that he will never get a return on his investment. Never! Especially if we keep paying people to take our discs and come to our shows.
