Caution Yellow: Out of lemons, rock
Got stood up for a date recently. It’s ok though; got a nice little rocker of a song out of it. Caution Yellow is below.

Loving my new toy.
In other news I am LOVING my new guitar interface. So much easier to play clean and monitor what I’m playing – now the only sound I hear is post-effects. Before, I was just micing a crappy practice amplifier. Lots of speaker hiss, ambient noise (the dishwasher, air conditioner, etc.), and I could always hear the raw sound sound from the speaker beneath the monitor sound in the headphones. Annoying … but no longer. Now, my only excuse for the guitar not sounding great is that I am not a great guitar player. Working on it.
This is the first song w/ the new setup: interface and Garageband 9 – got a new computer, too. I am discovering a few cool new things in the new version of Garageband. Thank you, Apple, for totally kicking ass!

Caution Yellow
here I am again, waiting on a girl
and she’s late
Maybe she’s not coming at all
call it flaky, call it fate
but i’d really like …
like the chance …
the chance to read the tattoo that she hides
so i’ll go for broke, hell i’m broken anyway
it’s caution yellow as i accelerate through the light
driving home again
all alone again
she never showed up
any fool could see
anyone but me would give up
but i’d really like …
like the chance …
the chance to read the tattoo that she hides
so i’ll go for broke, hell i’m broken anyway
it’s caution yellow as i accelerate through the light
accelerate through the light
is it green?
is it red?
if it’s yellow, stop ahead …
here i am again waiting on some girl to show up
it don’t look like she’s coming at all
and that’s just pretty fucked up
but i’d really like …
like the chance …
the chance to read the tattoo that she hides
so i’ll go for broke
hell i’m broken anyway
it’s caution yellow as i accelerate through the light
I like it. Well, not that you were stood up of course, but the song is good. The sound is great. The mix is balanced. Your vocals are distinct. Nice.
wow…sad and hopeful all at the same time. nice new sound! KK
