5/8	Connor put his 7 string guitar into the shop. Which was needed to record the song. SOOO now we are recording a different song Called Fast Song that we had also been working on at the same time.	1 hr	This is a best practice because we had to problem-solve about what to do next
5/9	We practiced through fast song and I was focussing on structure and changing up my drumming style.	1 hr	This is a best practice Since we had such a short time we had to really focus on collaborating efficiently.
5/10	I was getting my blood drawn		N/A
5/11	Practiced Halo on Fire and fast song and I recorded drums in only 1 or 2 takes	1 hr	This is a best practice since I had to do Midi Drums and I got better and more efficient at recording electric drums
5/12	We worked on our blog posts and we listened to and discussed the mixed version of our song.	1 hour	This was not a best practice as personally I got distracted watching Pneuma.

5/1	We just kind of jammed and Griffin wasn’t there so we had to work on songs that had Liam on guitar and Connor on bass.	1 hours	This was a best practice because we communicated and collaborated well towards our new material.
5/2	Griffin unfortunately wasn’t here again and we worked on the songs that we are going to play for the Japanese exchange students.	1 hour	This was a best practice because we were re learning some songs which required good communication.
5/3	We figured out the song structure of the Pirate song which I highly recommend you check out. I heard the drummer is like really good on that one.	45 minutes	This was a best practice because we communicated and collaborated to get done with our smart goal project.
5/4	Yesterday, we figured out transitions and the intro and outro for the pirate song.	1 hour	This was a best practice because we came up with cool idea for transitions (ally).
5/5	We recorded the Pirate song (this is untrue)	1 hour	This is (???) a best practice because we recorded our song (we didn’t).
