I spent them in San Antonio with South First Band at Rhapsody Street Studios. We had a good time.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nI worked a 12 hour night shift then left from work to make San Antonio when the boys did. I ended up getting there an hour early&#8230; so I hung out in a music store playing guitar really loud. LOL<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/clarksite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/08\/studio2.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[214]\" title=\"studio2.jpg\" class=\"imagelink\"><img decoding=\"async\" align=\"left\" alt=\"studio2.jpg\" id=\"image207\" src=\"http:\/\/clarksite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/08\/studio2.thumbnail.jpg\" \/><\/a>When they got there we unloaded the gear and things started rolling along. New heads on the drums, tuned the drums, and the boys laid a scratch track to a new song coming on the album. I was instantly impressed with Mack Damon&#8217;s, (Engineer\/Producer) knowledge and creativity. <a href=\"http:\/\/clarksite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/08\/studio1.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[214]\" title=\"studio1.jpg\" class=\"imagelink\"><img decoding=\"async\" align=\"right\" alt=\"studio1.jpg\" id=\"image206\" src=\"http:\/\/clarksite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/08\/studio1.thumbnail.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As usual, Pat beat the skins great&#8230;Jeff sang like..uhh a bird? and Stephen played the bass like&#8230;uhh  like a good bass player!

LOL except&#8230; &#8216;your sent lingers deliciously&#8217; &#8230;Dang how about those for lyrics?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/clarksite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/08\/golf.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[214]\" title=\"golf.jpg\" class=\"imagelink\"><img decoding=\"async\" align=\"left\" alt=\"golf.jpg\" id=\"image210\" src=\"http:\/\/clarksite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/08\/golf.thumbnail.jpg\" \/><\/a>There was alot of &#8216;in between&#8217; time while one person was laying tracks the rest of us would<a href=\"http:\/\/clarksite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/08\/stephen.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[214]\" title=\"stephen.jpg\" class=\"imagelink\"><img decoding=\"async\" align=\"right\" alt=\"stephen.jpg\" id=\"image212\" src=\"http:\/\/clarksite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/08\/stephen.thumbnail.jpg\" \/><\/a> goof off, sleep, read, or play Tiger Woods Golf on the Playstation 2. Jeff sucks at this game by the way&#8230;.because his profile is built up so much that there is now way any of us could beat him. LOL<\/p>\n<p>I got to meet James &#8230; Harkless&#8230;I think was the last name &#8230; and his wife Stacey. James plays bass for Brandon Rhyder. They brought homemade lasagna to us at the studio the first night. Yes it was awesome!<\/p>\n<p>They also fed us a second time at their apartment. Chicken fajitas. Wow! We borrowed their shower a couple times too. These are some of the nicest people on earth I think.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/clarksite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/08\/warren.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[214]\" title=\"warren.jpg\" class=\"imagelink\"><img decoding=\"async\" align=\"left\" alt=\"warren.jpg\" id=\"image213\" src=\"http:\/\/clarksite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/08\/warren.thumbnail.jpg\" \/><\/a>Warren did a lot of guitar work this time around. I was seriously amazed at the tone they we&#8217;re getting out of the Dual Rectifier. I was also impressed with the ideas Warren and Mack were coming up with.<\/p>\n<p>Mack and his crew were very knowledgeable &#8230; and allowed me to stand behind him and take mental notes and ask a few questions. Just watching him work was awesome.<\/p>\n<p>We got a little bored at one moment while we were their&#8230;and that can be dangerous for <a href=\"http:\/\/clarksite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/08\/bootycut.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[214]\" title=\"bootycut.jpg\" class=\"imagelink\"><img decoding=\"async\" align=\"left\" alt=\"bootycut.jpg\" id=\"image209\" src=\"http:\/\/clarksite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/08\/bootycut.thumbnail.jpg\" \/><\/a>this group. So the SFB boys spawned into their alter egos Sheriff Dirty Leg and the Brown Stars. Once taking on their characters&#8230;they cut their newest single that is taking the Hip-Hop world by storm. It is titled  &#8216;Boo` Te&#8217;. You can view the video I produced for them&#8230;WARNING..it has just a little language&#8230;so it is rated PG-13.

He came over to San Antonio from Austin on Thursday night. We went to Hooter&#8217;s..uhh I mean Fred&#8217;s Burgers&#8230;and ate. He came back to the studio and hang out a while. It was really nice to see him. I just wish I could have spent more time with him. Happy birthday lil&#8217; bro!<\/p>\n<p>Then Warren and I decided to stay up way to late&#8230;.got hungry&#8230;went on a search of San Antonio for a Los Po-something&#8230;we found one around 5:30 AM. It was great food &#8230;and the sign outside was even better. You can view it to the right, sorry for the quality..cell phone pic.

We found our bed rolls in the tracking room and took our ..uhh&#8230;maybe two hours sleep with pride.<\/p>\n<p>Well&#8230;I am gonna close this and just say&#8230;I love hanging with those guys. They&#8217;re going somewhere soon.
