How long overall was the process to create those songs on SONIC BOOM?
Not long you know…we did it in sections. We did in 3-4 sections, maybe three songs at a time. We’d write them, maybe spend an hour or two with whoever was working on it, then we’d go to rehearsal next and maybe spend an hour or two just making sure the arrangements were the way we wanted them. So then when we go to the studio it would just be a matter of putting it down. We didn’t have to keep rearranging or working on it. We just went and maybe tightened maybe a couple of things up and then just recorded them within 2-3 takes. It was great, very simple. It was originally stated everywhere that all the material there was brand new and it was written in studio but the fact is that there are couple of songs there which are, at least partly, released years ago in different occasions. So what’s the actual truth there…? I didn’t realize that, but I guess at least one of the songs… see Gene’s approach “laughs”…You know, he kind of backlog ideas and reshapes things and pull things from befo
