Bottle the Sound

We finally got everyone in a room together yesterday for a full band rehearsal. It was very intense. Guitar, bass, drums, violin, voices.

It was totally exhilarating.

Everyone in the room could feel something special happening. Some of the players are old pros, so it's kind of amazing how "blown away" they were by the sound we were creating.

The vibrations of the sound actually knocked the paintings on the walls off-kilter. Folks on the street were pausing before the door of our space to listen.

One guest of our rehearsal told me he was on the verge of tears from listening to our "beautiful" songs. I was totally wasted and drained at the end of the session.

I wonder if we can bottle this sound? Capture the butterfly? Keep the band together? There is something going on here. So exciting.
