I can't believe it's December already. I had planned on getting the next Zeyer album finished by the end of the year but I don't think I'm going to make it. I have been working slowly but steadily, and I think I'll shoot for 2009. On the positive side, I have been playing a lot of guitar lately, and I've been listening to some of my songs with an objective, critical ear. I'm trying to get everything perfect before committing it to the album. On song - which Stephanie and I both really like - really needed a chorus. I wasn't happy with the solos, either. So that went under the knife and should be emerging with a brand new chorus. I've been working on a couple of new songs, too. All in all, I'm not entirely happy that I haven't spent as much time recording as I should have, but I feel good about what's there, and I intend to make some good progress in December and on into 2009. Happy Holidays to you and yours.

I also thought I'd start listing what I'm currently listening to. As you can see, I've been in a metal phase.

Currently listening to:
Jeff Beck's "Truth" - Saw Jeff Beck on Clapton's Crossroads Festival concert on PBS. He's amazing, and I don't have enough of his albums.
Dio's "Dream Evil" - On vinyl - picked it up at Rock & Roll Heaven here in Orlando. There's nothing like heavy metal on vinyl.
Metallica's "St. Anger" - Great album to run to, and it's by far their best since Justice.
