Well, once again we're back at the recording/mixing process.
It's been said that we spend too much time doing this, and we should just "be musicians" and spend more time playing shows, like so many other
bands do. Just support what we have, the 'powers that be' at the Labels would say.
Do we really want to emulate 'so many other bands' ?
It's our belief, in part to working with our old friend Tim Sweeney, that the big mistake so many 'other bands' make is thinking of themselves primarily as musicians.
Our goal is to express ourselves, to manifest ourselves as Artists. Recording Artists. It's that simple. Don't get us wrong; we love to perform, and we feel we're exceptional at that. But, when we have amazing songs, that are our own creation, to slam out at our shows, the entire thing blasts to a new level.
OK, so enough about us. We'd like you all to find a way, each one of you, to find the "inner artist", and express yourselves. You can do this in simple, small ways.
In speech, in actions, in doing things in a different way.
Please think about that.
And as always AITD wishes each of you, a wonderful expressive day!
