The studio has been awash with musicians checking out the place. It is really amazing to me ( Don't get me wrong I love the work) that people will plunk down large sums of money to rehearse here in the studio. I try and do my best to get a reasonable idea of what they are looking for but sometimes come up short handed. The other day a band of four (no names will be mentioned) came in and said they wanted to lay down 8 tunes. Then they spent the next 3 hours deciding which 8. Then they spent an hour rehearsing said 8 songs. I love the work and the money but it seems like such a waste of time and money for these bands. I did tell them that they should have these things worked out before coming into the studio. I was told that musicians have their own time table and they will not be rushed into doing something half-assed and they packed and left. Now they will go somewhere else and do the same thing and waste even more time because of their attitude. The good news is I get 4 hours of time paid to the studio so I can continue to work with bands that do really want to get something done. Maybe I'm getting to old for this or I missed the "waste everyones time" memo.
