            <description><![CDATA[Man, what a couple of busy weeks. 

I've been abseiling and rock climbing at Leigh Tor on Dartmoor. Indoor climbing at <a href = "http://www.milladventure.co.uk/" target='blank'>The Mill</a> on Thurdsday night was a blast. Scaling the dizzy heights. Bit bruised from the harness but well worth it.
Just purchased Ozone 3 from <a href="http://www.izotope.com"  target = "blank">Izotope</a>. I don't know a great deal about mastering, but I'm gonna learn! On the surface it looks like an excellent pluggin. Watch this space! ]]></description>

            <link>http://macidol.com/jamroom/bands/3852</link>
            <description><![CDATA[Oh man, another weekend over and I've not recorded my 2 new songs. All written and ready.
Why oh why can't I find the motivation to get up in the "Studio" (loft) and record them.
It's not difficult. I've done it before. I'm a big boy and the loft holds no fears of ghosties/creepies/crawlies or nasties of any other kind. I like my new songs.
I have given myself a headache trying to persuade myself to get up there and get playing.

I had a free day today. I was supposed to be going abseiling, but it was called off 'cos of the weather. Ideal opportunity you'd think. Oh no. I sat on the couch and watched Pirates of the Caribbean: at Worlds End. Then went to sleep.

Granted it was a crappy day weather wise and I could not have recorded the vocals what with the rain frantically syncopating on the roof, but I could have done other tracks.

Hey ho. Next weekend I guess. maybe . . . ]]></description>

            <link>http://macidol.com/jamroom/bands/3852</link>
            <description><![CDATA[Ha, well, there we have it. 2007 is no more.

I managed, with the help of a few friends to get my play-count over 1000 before then end of the year. A small milestone I know, but to me it meant a lot.

Not too much of a hangover today. I drank responsibly. Got up this a.m. and went for a walk on Wimbleball Lake on Exmoor. I've put a couple of photos on facebook if anyone is interested.

Happy new year everyone! ]]></description>

            <title>Back on track again</title>
            <link>http://macidol.com/jamroom/bands/3852</link>
            <description><![CDATA[Well, I've had a busy old couple of months with work/decorating and a fairly mad spell of socialising. 

Lots of people leaving the company I work for, so lots of leaving do's. Sad to see them all go, but we've had some good nights out.

Saw Turin Brakes a couple of months back, in Exeter. Very good.

Upgraded to OS 10.5 Leopard. No problems so far (since the update supplied 1 week after release by Apple) which cured some rather serious GarageBand and iMovie/iDVD issues. As I'm working on a new song and editing a movie of my wife driving a racing car, I was pretty gutted when they started playing up after the upgrade. All good now and I have to say I quite like Leopard.

Apart from Stacks. Which is crap. Really awful. Honestly.

Anyhow, new song on the way soon and I hope now to have more time to dedicate on the forums.

BTW. I'm now on Facebook, so if anyone else wants another friend, just search for 
Paul Barrett - I'm in Devon. ]]></description>

            <link>http://macidol.com/jamroom/bands/3852</link>
            <description><![CDATA[Went to Ashill, a village not far away from here last night (if you are familiar with the music of <a href="http://www.jossstone.com/" target = "blank">Joss Stone</a> you'll know this is where she hails from).

They had a small music fest (Ashfest). Couple of stages (a tent and the village hall). Lots of local talent, a good night was had by all. A few beers were drunk and I met 3 people I hadn't seen for about 10 years.

Also, finished recording my new tune, <a href="http://www.macidol.com/song/20192" target = "blank">Sleepy Ninja</a>

Enjoy!  <img src="http://macidol.com/jamroom/images/smilies/face-grin.png" border="0" style="vertical-align:middle;" alt=":D" title=":D">  ]]></description>

I've got a couple of songs in their early stages i.e. tunes worked out, some initial lyrics. All I lack is the motivation and inspiration to do anything with them!

I really don't know how to give myself the mental kick up the arse I need.

            <link>http://macidol.com/jamroom/bands/3852</link>
            <description><![CDATA[Wow!!! Still buzzing after last night. Managed to get tickets to the last night of <a href = "http://www.theagilmore.com">Thea Gilmore's</a> current tour.

I cannot beleive how lucky I was. The gig was in a village hall in Sandford (near Crediton in Sunny Devon) of all places. There was a couple of good warmup acts, then just Thea, Nigel and 2 guitars and an intimate audience of around 200.

It was all part of the <a href = "http://www.nationalgigguide.com/news/?nid=1003">Sanford Music Festival</a> A great time was had by all. 

I bought a copy of "Loft Music" which I've been searching for, and Thea signed it. Kewl!

            <link>http://macidol.com/jamroom/bands/3852</link>
            <description><![CDATA[Been playing guitar badly for 17 years on and off. Started to really enjoy it a couple of years ago when I hooked up with a mate and started to jam once a week.

I found GarageBand hiding on my Mac, and I was hooked!

I bought an external soundcard as the iBook G4 does not have an audio in, thank you Griffen iMic - it's great. 

I moved all my stuff into the loft so not to annoy my wife with the clutter, bought a £30 mic and off I went.

The kit: semi-acoustic hollow back guitar - cheap but nice action. 15 year old Yamaha PSR keyboard (midi in and out - yay!). iBook 14" G4, Yamaha drum pad, Strat copy, Yamaha 12 string acoustic and an old Honer Arbour acoustic

These are the only songs I've ever recorded (so far). ]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[A friend of someone who shall remain nameless recently compared my vocal sound to a cross between "that bloke from the Happy Mondays*" and Chris de Burgh.

I'm hoping she has no musical taste as I quite like the HMs ref, CDB is my nemesis <img src="http://macidol.com/jamroom/images/smilies/face-devil-grin.png" border="0" style="vertical-align:middle;" alt=":devil:" title=":devil:">. Lady in Red is perhaps my least fave song ever. Apart from anything by Celine Dion. <img src="http://macidol.com/jamroom/images/smilies/face-grin.png" border="0" style="vertical-align:middle;" alt=":D" title=":D">
