This is literally the first thing I have ever written, and it was way harder to record than I anticipated. I am not happy with the recording quality, but I ran out of time
 If anyone has any tips or advice (about writing or recording), I would be very appreciative. I used the G minor pentatonic for this, until the very end, where I used C minor, but tried to finished on a G note.

Hey Alex, I'm afraid you are going to have to count me out on this one, I'm finishing up my college classes this week, and been writing a reserach paper for the past two weeks. I thought I could squeeze in time to do a recording, but it looks like its not going to be possible after all. I guess you could say I got the College Finals Blues this week. I been listening to all the takes so far and they are awesome, I'm looking forward to hearing the final mix!
