The only thing we ever heard out of Slash was "Heeeey Maaaan, you gaaaht any quaaarters dude?" (his American quarters wouldn't work in the KISS pinball machine... Those guys really did leave a trail of destruction everywhere they went ( and a lot of pissed off promoters, studio owners, drivers, techs, well the list is endless, really...myself included). If Axl had a flat tire on a deserted road in the Arizona desert, and I came along, I'd have to really fight down the urge to slow down and hork a great big Mennonite Farmer Loogie at the guy, and insted, silently help him out.<BR/><BR/>The truth is that the fleeting moments of 'Glam' are so diluted by days and days of editing, tuning, and tweaking. Out of the 50 or 60 records I'll work on this year, I reckon there's only about 3 or 4 that I'm actually proud of. If you know anyone who's ever been on a film set, there's hours upon hours of hurry up and wait while the lighting guys get it togehter. Making records is a little like that. The only real exciting part of the process is the basic tracking session where there's actually more than one person playing an instrument, and maybe a horn session. Everthing else is kind of like touching up a portrait in PhotoShop. It's immensely satisfying to the person doing the work in some strange way, but not exactly a spectator sport...<BR/><BR/>As long as the Wal-Mart masses keep buying packaged sentiments in the form of music, I'll be busy.<BR/><BR/>Nah Git, I said!Jethrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06123215123114430142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17536279.post-1168690782732383092007-01-13T04:19:00.000-08:002007-01-13T04:19:00.000-08:00i just love your blog you do so much you have so m...i just love your blog you do so much you have so many interesting posts xkatyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12771905454120068595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17536279.post-1168680687422633142007-01-13T01:31:00.000-08:002007-01-13T01:31:00.000-08:00You, Heidi, are like me.
