January 2008 News This information is from Gary's
January 16 email.
Last night we had a great meeting. 24 of us
gathered at Boutwell Studios for a vigorous hour and a half with
one of the partners, Jeff McKee, and Musical Director Mark
Harrelson, who gave us many insights into creating demos,
recording technology, and preparing to record. The Q and A was
outstanding!
