Today we listened to everyone's song choices and then we jumped into writing a song as a group. I do not have much to say about the sharing other than it was lively discussion, really into the music. There was some unexpected aggression at first, but it turned out ok.

The song writing is going well so far, I'm exited. Death was immediately chosen as a theme, that was a bit unexpected. I like it though, we seem to be doing well lyric-wise. Lyrics are new for me, but once we have something going, I feel like I can contribute. The harmony right now is also slightly foreign territory for me. The 6/8 feel that is almost swung is more familiar; I have actually worked with it often in my own compositions. It is a really cool sound to write over. I noticed that it was mostly 3 or 4 people dominating the creative process, some people are left on the side. We should work on fixing that tomorrow.  Speaking of tomorrow, I'll bring my guitar so I can add onto the conversation musically.

P.S. I shared my survey with you Adam, it is in your email.
