		<title>It&#8217;s coming together&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, the album is coming together nicely.  All of the vocals are sung, and I&#8217;ve been working on comping them and picking out the best parts.  I found a great horn player, Bill Scholl, and we got together a while ago and recorded some ideas for the song &#8220;Drive Me&#8221;.  After listening to the parts [...]]]></description>

		<title>What&#8217;s new?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was making good progress, recording at a (relatively) good pace through the end of the summer. Vocals are done for 7 of the 12 songs, and that&#8217;s more than half.  But then it went and got cooler outside and I went and caught a cold.  I don&#8217;t think it was the pig [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bracketing in Photoshop to Fix iPhone exposure problems</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I took a couple photos of a beautiful summer sky over a field the other day on my iPhone.  I couldn&#8217;t quite get the exposure right, though.  If I focused on the ground, the sky got blown out, and if I focused on the sky, the ground was very dark.
I remembered reading about bracketing though, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Update</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Quick update.  I&#8217;ve found myself using Twitter (which in turn updates my Facebook page) a whole lot lately, as it&#8217;s easier to write a 140-character &#8220;what I&#8217;m working on now&#8221; update than to write a full blog entry.  And more people tend to read Twitter and Facebook than my blog here.  But to recap, for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Guitars, guitars, and more guitars.  And computers.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over the last two weeks, I&#8217;ve recorded the guitars for just about half the songs for the new album.  It&#8217;s quite the process.  I&#8217;d done fairly fully-fleshed out demos for most of these songs, and so started out the &#8220;real&#8221; versions by importing the demo parts as a road map once the drums were tracked.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Magic Word?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been getting these calls a couple times a day.  &#8220;This is your second and final notice that your automobile warranty is about to expire&#8230;&#8221;  Or some variation on that theme, anyway.  I ignored it for a few weeks, but it didn&#8217;t stop or even slow down the calls.
So yesterday, when I got the call [...]]]></description>

		<title>Back in the saddle</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I finally got my Pro Tools setup stable on the new computer and got some work done on the solo album over the last couple of days.  I decided to start with the guitars in &#8220;Everything&#8217;s Fine&#8221;.  I re-recorded over the imported demo tracks (which were time-shifted as I imported them to fit the song&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>This is not good.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For those of you wondering why I haven&#8217;t posted about my progress on the new album lately&#8230;  I decided to get a new computer recently.  The one I had was pretty fast, but not quite powerful enough to do everything I wanted to do on my songs.  So I got a newer, faster one.
I&#8217;m not [...]]]></description>
