I think it's less hassle to listen them live than listen to some kind of weird C casette recording that sounds like broken PA.

But of course!

I have finished the invoice (with some guilt from my mother!) and have decided on:

4 days, recording, mixing, and mastering @ $400 (AUD)

Pretty reasonable, considering it was originally $600 (until mother stepped in and gave me that look

Damn mothers......

No way. It's weird when producers try to get drummer to play along to a click. Any time I've been part of recording a "real" band that's always an impossibility.

Anyway, back on topic. Good luck with it all mate. Really hope it all goes well.

Tempo drift, anyone? Is it nice when song starts 120bpm and ends 145bpm? No.

Natural groove anyone? If the drummer is drifting out of time that much, then he probably shouldn't be playing the drums.

But lets not get too far off topic.....

Definitely make some cash out of it though Jase.

Hoho. Whe would the groove go if the drummer plays with click? It's like he would turn into a sequencer when he keeps the tempo. Click is always desired because it's really annoying if the tempo changes gradually. It's easier to edit when it's on time and for example if the song has breaks it's easier to play the breaks when you can play with click.
