A big weekend in WAWT ‘ville. Friday night we played The Globe Theatre in support of The Daniel Morcombe Foundation. A solid show, prolly not our best ever but some nice comments came our way. Thanks to Kate Bradley for all her hard work organsing things. Also, big thanks to Ellie for donating her kit as the backline for the evening. Good to see Terry again, new do n’ all!! Looking good Terry!!!

This weekend has us bunkered in at Blackbox studios with Magoo (of all kinds of mixing and ARIA award winning fame). We scheduled three tracks for the weekend and thus far drums are done for all. Today will be a driven marass of hardwork and graft getting everything done, but we’ll be loving it don’t worry. Gits, vocals, keys, some bass parts and general trinketty bits and overdubs will also need doing. Mixing will come later.

Don’t forget these tracks will eventually end up on our full length album out later this year.

Right now, it’s breakfast at Fort Fred. Skye is working feverishly on GB&GV production; todd is I phoning the latest in mp3goodness..Tim is on his way over and it’ll be coffee and toast fiesta..

Keep an eye out for more updates from recording later today..

right..now where’s that coffee??

Eh Up ~ What’s All This Then??

Having thoroughly enjoyed ourselves kicking out the jams at last week’s show at The Zoo – Congrats Grand Atlantic on brilliant launch – we’ve settled into a weekend of down time in preparation for a huge couple of months.

While Tim is away in Perth this weekend tending to Screamfeeder duties the rest of us are enjoying the quite hermitude of homebase. Todd with his new duvet suit, Paully mixing his compilation albums, Skye in flu recovery and yours truly tapping out hinterweb promo shots. Fear not though…if you’re up for a late night you can always catch our video for Back To The Car which will screen again on RAGE this week, sometime around 3am.

Thursday night this week Paully, Tim and myself hunkered down in the studio and set to learning a bunch of clash songs for the upcoming ‘Death Or Glory’ at The Troubadour. This coming week will have us rehearsing our little tails off for the ‘Rock For Daniel’ show at The Globe Theatre on Friday July 10. We’ll also be nailing down the final bits of pre-production for our sessions with Magoo over the weekend at Blackbox studios. On Wednesday and Thursday of this coming week a few of us will be jetting down to Sydney to work with Wayne Conolly at Alberts Studios mixing tracks we recorded earlier in the year with the man himself. The rough desk bounces sound amazing..can’t wait to hear the finished products. These tracks, including those we’ll record in August with Jamie Trevaskis will add to the current haul that will eventually make our full album scheduled for release later in the year.

So a big couple of months ahead for us..Lots of amazing stuff in the pipeline that’s way too early days to be spoiling surprises with :-)

night for now.

WAWT.
