| Wannabe A Hero So.....check it out. You songwriters know how serious we tend to get about our tunes, right? Well, this one is just for fun. Last Saturday I was just in the mood to track some acoustic guitar....you know, check mic placement, just killing time really. So I got about 4 mins. of Martin down when the boys showed up and started in on Guitar Hero outside the studio. Done for the day, right? Nah....I just fired up a stereo track and recorded THEM (through the open door). Funny thing is, when I listened back the Guit Hero track lined up pretty nicely with the Martin....near the end. Anyway, I spent the rest of the day watching golf on the studio TV (sampled Johnny Miller near the end also) and tracked the rest on Monday. I know it's been said before but.....is this fun, or what?

| Overheads could be a little louder since its not really a kick snare type jangle. It would fill it up and make it sound a little clearer. The bass should be more present also. 4 dB up/ low mids up... -Chris Mixer from LA

| OK bass and OH's up a little......I like the difference. I'm a bass player at heart so I usually get the bass the way I like it and then back it off a bit. Go figure, right? Thanks to all for giving this tune a listen. If anybody has any suggestions for further tweakage....I'm all ears. SoundClick artist: Lenny and the Scapers - Ballad Rock
