Playing with Strangers Session No. 6 live show took place on Oct 11, 2014 and consists of members of these bands:
Middle Names, When Giants Fall, The I Me Mines, The Shilsholes, Zoe Has A Friend
While for some of the later sessions the musicians were willing and able to get together a day or a week early to explore ideas, Session No. 6 was done on the “short schedule”:
We met at Soundhouse on Wednesday 6PM evening to set up for recording and got less than an hour to throw out some music ideas.
Met again Friday at 6PM. Had to resolve some technical issues but we got about 4 hours of work in.
Saturday Oct 11, we met at 10AM and continued working on the songs and the show until around 7PM. We went to dinner across the street at the Pho place – I was still frantically writing lyrics for Two for the Moment (It was actually a working title: it was the 2nd idea we were working on and when asked the title, I said “We’ll call it “2” for the moment – it sparked an idea and I wrote the lyrics with the current title in mind).
The show started about 8:45.
So, these songs were written and recorded in roughly 13 hours. We overdubbed (re – recorded) the vocals within a week or two (except Two for the Moment, which I finished just before I mixed them) … and a mere eight years later …. Voila!
Two of the live versions were used (One for the Road and Forget My Love).
