My 7-sting acoustic is finally fixed.  I received the replacement preamp, dropped it in and the problem was solved.  With that now done, I was able to record the acoustic parts on 'Fairy Tales', which is what I concentrated on all week.   I feel good about what I recorded, but I may end up doing them again before the song if completed.  There are some little mistakes that I have let go for now, but they may bother me too much to leave as is.  I at least want to get the singing, bass and keyboard part done and then I will see how I feel about the acoustic parts.
    I jammed with Monika and we learned another one of her songs.  They sound pretty good, but we need a little more practice.  We will probably learn one more before we decided to go to an open mic night.
