Ten Feet Off The Ground

Today has been a day to remember. We returned to the recording studio to finish the CD for our Songwriters Guild concert on Saturday, and all the boys show up with guitars, mandolins, percussion, the works, and proceed to spend most of the day producing the hell out of my song. Incredible. We ended up with seven songs for this CD we're doing. Three of them are mine. One is the title track. I'm totally stunned. I'm just sitting there, hearing all this beautiful work on MY stuff, tears rolling down my face, thinking: these guys are just the best.

Tomorrow we're on our local radio station promoting the concert, which will be next Saturday. If y'all are in the neighborhood, drop by and see us. We mix down tomorrow, and I promise to put a couple of the tracks on YouTube. Yes, I'm that proud of them, that I'm going to put them here. Gosh, I might even put a photo of myself on it. Nah, who am I kidding?

Saturday from Hell turned out better than I expected, and once the problem group arrived, they were actually very nice and courteous and loved everything we did. We made money and ate Mexican afterward. It was a nice day.

Off to eat at our friends house for games night. I think K's serving Brinner (breakfast eaten at dinner). I'm starving. Being inspirational is hard work.

I forgot to mention...when I wrote the song, the 'bridge', you might recall, was the Muse speaking to me...I explained it to Chris Branch, and he SANG that part of the song with such sweetness and passion, and I could feel DM just radiating beside me. I was crying like a baby when he finished, and he was really happy with it. It sounds so amazing and I could feel DahlraMuse just washing over me.

Today, when we rehearsed it, it was just the same...I think it's the best thing I've ever created...well, helped create...
