Wayward recovery

Well, it just doesn't get any better than that. What a night. Everyone was awesome, the energy was fantastic, and wow, we sold so many CD's! Thanks once again to Broenwynn for letting us play at her place.

The idea of an autograph queue is not new to me. I've stood in a few myself. But there's just something mind blowing about seeing one and realizing, "oh, that's for us?..." Just... wow.

Thanks everyone for coming, and for being part of a great night. See you all again soon! We've got plans in the works for local venues in both June and July. We'll let you know as soon as they firm up.

So, for those who just got the album... was it worth the wait? :-)

The concert was wonderful. I was moved to tears by the harmonies in at least 3 songs and there were more that gave me chills and shivers. The CD is just as good. You guys have managed to capture the magic of your concerts and put it onto something portable. Simply delightful.

Thank you SO much. For me, the CD is more about giving the songs all the lushness and ornamentation they deserve, rather than trying to capture our live sound. The exception is Red Right Hand, where we really went to extra trouble to make it sound exactly like we do it live. We even recorded it with both of us at the same time instead of overdubbing separately.

That is pretty cool. Its fun hanging out with all you musicians and sound guys and learning how the recording process works. When you do your behind the music notes you may want to put info on how you did the mixing and such for all the behind the scenes geeks. I know I love it.

Good idea. We'll keep that in mind.

Hey, I'm adding a feature to our web site that puts up random blurb quotes about our albums and performances. Mind if we quote some of the things you said in livejournal? (And if yes, what name should I use for you? I don't remember your real name as related to your livejournal handle.)

I don't mind at all. You can either just use the LJ handle of Kat_Merle or simply Kat I go by both in this community since I'm much more social online than in person.

Thanks so very much! Adding to the web site now.
