Recording: 'Tomorrow never knows' (take 1)
Bag-end studio - 07:30-8:00 - P: Dude.
Putting down the first element for this crazy cover: the gamelan-type-'I-don't-know-the-name-of-this-instrument'-thing.

Recording: 'Dear boy' (SI on take 1)
Bag-end studio - morning - P: Dude.
Adding all the little comedy effects to this funny cover: my own speech, the voice of Thierry from the previous radio show where he defied me to do this cover, and some funny noises with guitar and piano. Very fun to do, and it allowed me to mix this cover and send it in time for it to be broadcasted live on the next day's show. Cool.

Rehearsal with the New Trio 2
Recording: 'Sunday papers'
Recording: 'I'm the man'
Recording: 'Look sharp !'
Recording: 'One more time'
France 3 basement - 21:00-23:00 - P: Dude. Present: Dude, Thierry, Arnaud.
More rehearsal work with the New Trio. 'Look sharp' came out quiet well, but "I'm the man" is a wild beast we stil have to tame. But it is still better than 'One more time' which is the real challenge. We have to work, work work and then perhaps add a little work before being at ease with the crazy fast tempo of that one.

Recording: 'Dear boy' (take 1)
Bag-end studio - 13:00-14:00 - P: Dude.
The day before I was listening to Big Mac's Beatles Radio Show, when suddenly he talked about me and challenged me to do a cover of Paul McCartney's "Dear boy", live on air ! Of course I took the challenge and said he will have the song ready for next week's show.
So now I had to work. So today I did the voices for the first verse. (the main voice in double-tracking and the backing vocals).

Recording: 'The prophet's song' (SI on take 1)
Bag-end studio - morning - P: Dude.
I think I finally managed to get a decent lead vocal for this impossible Queen song ! (At last. This must be the 4th or 5th attempt). This day I also made the first part of the echo extravaganza that is the middle of this song. (the first part means up until the Christmas choir).

Recording: 'Myst Cyan introduction'
Recording: 'Embrumage'

Rehearsal with the New Trio 1
Recording: 'Sunday papers'
Recording: 'Look sharp ! (unrehearsed)'
France 3 basement - 21:00-23:00 - P: Dude. - Present: Dude, Thierry, Arnaud.
The very first rehearsal of the new trio. A lot of it was better than I expected, some things I thought would be cool were a lot harder to do. We rehearsed two songs: "One more time" and "Sunday papers". The first one needs more practice. We also did a loose version of 'Look sharp' (just for fun because I didn't work it out yet). I recorded the last two numbers of the evening.

Recording: 'Lost in a maze'
Recording: 'A slow song'
Recording: 'Running like mad through the maze - I'm losing
Recording: patience - but then comes the enlightment'
Bag-end studio - afternoon - P: Dude.
The very first recording I ever made on the very first real piano I ever bought: Doreen's piano. I recorded with the Minidisc two improvs, and also an instrumental version of "A slow song", which I will augment with vocals later.
