Very cool to see the Bird in action!
Nothing is what it seems but everthing is exactly what it is.

Used the Mud (out of phase mode) and the Lollar together on a single track, Tony... I believe a rough mix of the bass and drums will be sent through and hope to get a copy soon... Susanna and Garry will be back in the studio last weekend of month (present schedule) to lay down vocal and guitars, then some final stuff and backing vocals... not sure of final plans yet...

Nothing new, at present... just discussing if it is possible to replace the old photobasket links with alternate, direct images...?
As it stands the old pages appear to have no editing rights...
