Day 8: Rain of Bells (way tamer than slayer...)
November 1st, 2005
today we welcomed our dear friend charlie vinz! into the studio. he plays a fuckin' mean glockenspiel. today though, he played us something similar, but more along the lines of bells. i'll call them sweet special bells. cuz the way he plays bells....they ain't no average sounding bells! he's amazing! the swiftness, the deftness, he's a wiz. and a sweetie. thanks for coming charlie! then he was off, in a blaze of gentle goodbyes...back to chicago, his home. then it was back to piano. nick played wonderfully again. he recorded this darkly gorgeous and sexy part. a spanish road..beautiful men and women...vibrant colors lighting up the night. his playing inspired imagery, so full of life. it was awesome. so, tomorrow, it's girls day! we'll be experimenting with layers of taps, finishing up bass parts and starting on those fun percussion instruments/toys.
can't wait! xoxo
