So last Monday, November 23rd, we hunkered down in an old farmhouse in Dane, Wisconsin to record all of the drums for the upcoming album, the "we" being: Jeremiah Nelson and Andy Hartman (engineers), Adam Cargin (drummer), and myself (devilishly handsome songwriter extraordinaire). Jeremiah, Andy, and myself went out to the farmhouse the night before and set up all of the recording equipment, and then proceeded to have a campfire and drink a few beers.
We started setting up drums at around 10am on Monday, and worked until 8:30pm or so. It was a long, but super productive day of recording, and I'm very happy to report having all of the drum parts for the entire album done. Next up, we'll be doing the rhythm guitar parts, probably at the beginning of next week.
Here are a few pictures of the farmhouse and from the session:

The farmhouse, my dad was born in 1941 and grew up here.
The farm in the morning, shrouded in fog.

Room mics, set up at different distances from the drums and in different rooms.
