Hey folks,
Just wondering if anyobdy has any wild stories about things that happened to you while recording, mixing, etc. You know, those ones that start, "I remember this one time..."
Maybe to keep it relevant, let us know what you learned from said incident. Who knows, somebody might benefit.
Happy posting
Keith
