Anthony,

	Thanks.  If you had any idea how clueless I am at this moment you
probably wouldn't ask for the info.  This is really the first time I
have recorded a session.

	We did the rhythm guitar, bass, and drums together (in the drummers
living room with his kids going crazy in the next room).  I had my
computer with an ST-Audio C-Port DSP 2000, a cheap little 6 input
Behringer mixer, a Behringer 4 channel headphone amp, a Hughes & Kettner
Red Box for the bass, and a Digitech RP-100 for the guitar.  I recorded
the bass and guitar direct.  I used two cheap (Marshall) overhead
condenser mics for the drums (about 2 meters up and slighty back of the
drummer) and a Shure SM57 on the kick.  We recorded the vocals on one of
the Marshall mics next.  We recorded one lead guitar track there and
then I did all the rest in my living room using the RP-100 while
annoying my wife to no end (I made my own guitar and it's a semi-hollow
body so she could here me noodling away while she was trying to watch
Emeril Live).  Total time recording was about 8 hours for the basics and
then I spent a few more hours doing the lead stuff.  Many hours trying
to get a decent mix.  I used Ardour, Audacity, and Normalize for
everything.
