1:44 of camera trickery and a super pitch-corrected vocal. What started out as a gag turned into a three-week project. Tonight I threw my hands up and said: "Enough." Everything was played straight into the board (and later massaged with Reaper) except for the electric guitar. The mini Katana pooped out so I overdubbed that part at home. Sorry.

So where is the cat? :lol:

That was short and sweet and very entertaining. You hit all the right notes on the Tele solo. Something about your videos makes me want to move to Colorado.

Thanks for the nice words, fellas. This was hard work.

@Tonray's Ghost : At her age. napping is Izzy's forte. I had to splice in 1.5 minutes of video from previous take because she looked dead in the one I used.

@AnotherJim : For something recorded outdoors, the render was too "studio-ish." I couldn't pitch-correct the dry recording, though because the egg shaker bled through to my mic (and there was a lot of pitch correction).

@toomanycats : One of the three cats (Mr. Jingles) followed us down to the park but went home before we recorded. He goes wherever Izzy goes. We have room for you here in CO. Bring all of your stuff and plan on doubling it once you get here. It's amazing how much stuff we gotta have in this neck of the woods. No underground vibration problems, though. Just arguments about water rights.

@OMB : Thanks for the compliment! Creativity is often derived from necessity. Nothing jived at the end of the song so it was easier to make us all disappear at once.

@fullonshred : Your comment made my day.

@Narsh my next step was getting a hold of you to help with the mix but I might need to play that card with something worthwhile. And, as noted, enough was enough with this project.

Thank you for the compliment.
