A Fender Rhodes is very heavy...
The gentlemen of Hotel San Sebastian came in waves. Foster arrived last, but he had to find a way to get off work, and I think he biked to our studio, which is badass.
The group had to dismantle their perfectly played Tetris game of gear they had assembled in the back of the car. Then carry it down a creaky set of stairs. They had a lot of unique instruments, and by unique I mean large in size. Although Foster's guitar is pretty cool looking.
The downtime conversation was really fun, even though the participants were mostly Woody and I. We talked about how every band in The Cities usually ends up playing with one another, and how we as artists naturally end up playing with the same bands night in and night out (whether we like it or not).
We all long for change, so expect see more Hotel San Sebastian/ Second-Hand Opera bills in the future, and perhaps the new Hotel album will be recorded at the Saint Paul Opera House...
I think I should explain something about the podcast. My opening line was, "I'm not sure if i want to edit that in post. I think I want to keep it in." Unfortunately what I was referencing got edited in post. Before we went on air, I advised everyone to keep silent when the theme song kicks in, because that means we're live.
As soon as I finished that sentence, Alex said something to the degree of, "Oh so I shouldn't say anything like 'I'm really high." I cut him off because the opening notes of "Woodstock Emergency Pipe" came on halfway through his sentence.
In a nutshell, the first sound heard on the broadcast was, "I'm really high." We tookit out of the podcast, but for those listening live I hope you got a good laugh.
Thanks for coming on the show guys! Oh and to the good people at American Rag, I'm sorry about the "On The Rag" comment. Sometimes things are funnier in my head than aloud...
Nevermind that line is still funny.
