Guitar Amp Heaven

Some of the electric guitar work on the upcoming CD was cut with a Vox AC-30 and a Fender Twin in tandem. Gotta love it. The AC-30 amplifier has been used on many a classic cut throughout rock history.

New Band Member, Mike

The Finger Puppets have added a new band member named "Mike." He's diminutive (approximately the size of a golf ball) and responsible for incidental noises in the night, misc. percussion, and treadmill management. Mike's joining the band is not expected to require us to upgrade to a larger tour bus.

Tracking Lead Vocals

When prepping to record, Melissa prefers to be barefoot, with the lights dimmed, and a pack of Orbitz gum.

It was kind of loud....

but I loved standing there, awash in the sound of cranked electric guitar...

We Can Work It Out

New Web Site Coming!

We are working on a new Finger Puppets band web site. It's going to have more music (when it's done soon), photos, lyrics, video, etc. Stay tuned!

In Studio

Spent yesterday afternoon at Studio 313 with drummer Rob Ladd (Alanis Morissette, Don Henley) and bassist John Heames (Lets Active, Motorcaster) cutting two tunes. Fun!

We will blog you.

It had to happen sooner or later. The Finger Puppets have set up a blog and this is our very first post.
