day 3
so yesterday here’s what happened, you know, just to recap.
1. mike d played bass guitar on the three songs that jeremy had tracked drums to. “can you feel it” “o for a thousand tongues” and “oh the glory of it all”.
2. shane ate part of a potato.
3. shane found himself briefly in a saturated fat coma.
4. shane wondered aloud, “where am i?! what happened?!”
5. hogan set up for violin parts on the three songs mentioned previously.
6. we discovered that our studio is wired pin 3 hot rather than the unofficially universal pin 2 hot.
7. this would be our fault because we have no idea what we’re doing. or, we just really counter cultural. yes. we were making a statement. i mean, who says pin 2 must be hot? who?
8. we ate at olive garden. shane had the “tour of itally.” this is a meal that intends for you to basically eat your way around the country.
9. taylor (the kid) and jack brought guitars over so we could start on electrics this morning.so here’s what’s going on right now. jack and taylor are tracking guitars for “oh the glory of it all” downstairs. hogan is tracking violin for “oh the glory of it all” upstairs. he would have been done but he had me come listen and i requested that during the break section, where he basically has a solo, he make his transitions between notes a little more legato. must milk it a little more. it’s an incredibly emotive part. it will make your insides soar i’m pretty sure.
we’re currently listening to jack a/b his line 6 delay pedal that he typically uses during this song, with an analogue tape delay. which do you think will when out? it’s pretty obvious…

the violin makes “oh the glory of it all”. awesome.
that is awesome. you guys look like you’re jamming on the web cams
the analog probably. unless line 6 is really that good at modeling, which they are pretty darn close.
oh and I still would like to see the promised stickers.
from the webcams, it dont look like dave put the stickers on yet.
I can feel it.
i see you on the webcam crowder! you and your hot orange (or is it red?) laptop!
um, i want my insides to soar. i don’t want them to be sore, though. three cheers for emotive violins!
the weirdest part about reading this is i kind of watched you sit on the couch by the lamp and write it on your orange laptop.
cool.
ah sweet! can’t wait to hear these songs!
As a drummer, I was curious what are the stats on the drums. Brand? Type? Sizes? Etc…Definitely enjoy the enjoy drumming on the DCB albums and have had others who aren’t into Christian music say that it’s pretty good too.
i feel like i’m part of the making of this album which already sounds really cool.. i can’t wait for it to come out.. i love ur take on traditional hymnals
HOGAN + VIOLIN = TREMENDOUS !!!
analog :]
does Jack’s Line6 DL-4 have the Keeley mod? it’s a must-have for the DL-4
can’t wait, fellas.
Crowder!! Crowder!! Crowder!!
Can’t wait to hear the song!!!! WIll you post it on the other website?
I loved the drawing of the cartography!! Hilarious!
You go hogan, you go band!!
God Bless
eujin
I’m so excited for your new cd!!!
more legato…nice. very very nice. i’m not sure about the analogue tape delay. they are usually pretty fun. however, i’m pretty sure if the line 6 is programmed right it can wash dishes for you…so, we’ll see. either way, ya’ll have a great time! keep on truckin!
seven cameras now!
oh the irony. i ate at olive garden last night and had the tour of italy.
what is camera 3 looking at on the webcam page?
When are you guys gonna do an entire album of club anthems?
It is quite possible and probably a fact that you mention food on here more than you do music.
I like how you guys are so accesible.. it reminds me of how much God sees us, and how much we are supposed to be open to him and his spirit to speak truth into our lives.. But of course, we are cursed because there is only so far we as humans can go.. *sigh.. but let rocking commence~! heh
can’t wait for the shivers and chills…
my favorite is the Steak Gorgonzola from the OG . I say go with the analogue tape delay!
i am so pumped for this new cd…aaaaahhhhhhhhh
is that an Echoplex? drool.
I like the disco ball
3 pin hot is obviously a sign that the Father Son and Holy Spirit are with you
obviously
wow i’m so glad there is someone else out there whose pinky toe is significantly shorter than the others…thanks david crowder band for letting me know my toe’s not alone….PTgirlinOKC
I really enjoy the Olive Garden, and I really enjoy you guys, and I really can’t wait to enjoy the next album
i love those fake olive garden commercials with the cheesy acting. and by “i love” i mean to say “i despise”
fulltone? eh, don’t racks sound better for the studio since they’re stereo?
Man, that guy eats a lot.
a charge to keep i have, a God to glorify, A never-dying soul to save,
And fit it for the sky, to serve this present age, my calling to fulfill, o may it all my powers engage, to do my masters will. dialing in from the grooveroom……… Crowder yesterday I was thinking about the guitar and jazz(the gift of america to the world) and what a song would sound like if I never used the note that make chords major or minor (the 3 or flat 3) and today I looked on youtube and your E tuning does just what I was looking for, perhaps I could write a beautiful song without ever using a three, how swell that would be!!! Anyhow, I wonder is it stalking if I watch you all on the webcam, the webcams are really cool. Dude, when you come to atlanta fest maybe if you have time, I’d like to invite you and your band over for some green tea, a little post-modern southern hospitality…lol…but seriously I live about five minutes from six flags. O for a thousand songs to sing I can’t wait to hear I’m sure it is a genteel gigantic work of geniuses…..by the way did you get my email?? may the groove be with you_
dude
yuo rocketh to the maxeth
That sounds like a very productive three days. I had the days off so I did absolutely nothing.
Line 6 will most likely take the cake.
David, do you EVER get up off that couch? Geez, get off the computer already!
the keeley mod is definitely sweet. blue lights!!! He (keeley) is from my home town. I have a keeley compressor for my bass and it is amazing.
Please fill the blank:
“A Beautiful Collision” is to death as this new album is to ________.
I thought that was small; then I saw your foot.
sounds amazing. this is such an exciting time.
Hey Dave, Luv ya man but set down the mac and pick up your ax, I want that CD.
love violins! though i personally dont own one…
the old tape will likley sound better, but it is hart to get the timing right on those things.
heck thats a no brainer… echoplex always wins… do you like the vintiage echoplex or the new full drive remake better??
i’m sure by ‘obvious’ you mean the great ECHOPLEX! oh, i apologise for questioning, of course you do.
PLEX!
