Easy StreetIf I was gonna sing at your
wedding, this might be a good one. Other songs might be I’d Rather
Go Blind or the theme from Friends. I like having the last word.
Or really just all the words or as many as possible. Don’t tell me
it’s okay to call you whenever, cause I will. I call Brian Wilkie
several times a day because he said it was alright, and I believed him.
I am currently in rehab for this. Easy Street features a guitar solo
by Brian, with Brendan on everything else. Brian asked Brendan how
long he thought it would take to cut the guitar, like maybe fifteen minutes?
Brendan laughed. Brian came over and set up his amp at 1:12.
They stuck a mike in front of it. Brendan hit “record”. Brian
played. They moved the mike out of the way, Brian packed up his amp
and left at 1:27. While the other tracks were cut, I hung around
outside spying on the neighbors and wishing they hadn’t hauled away the
old water heater that people could put their beer bottles on during breaks.
There’s some garbage out there that could have been strawberries at one
time but now has fur. No one was willing to hang around the studio
at all when it was my turn to cut, but it really didn’t take me that long
and I wasn’t nearly as grouchy as usual.
