Tonight, we went over the same four songs again. And yes, we're starting to get rather sick of them. A good sign as to when you're ready to go into the studio. I also introduced the click track to both Aref and Shahin.
For those who aren't familiar with what a click track is, it's a raft of humiliation for public display of your own personal time failings. Or, it's a steady, chirping noise (also known as the "click") played through headphone by a machine to keep every member of the band on the beat with the same meter.
Aref took right to the click; he worked with it pretty naturally and had no problems. Shahin was struggling a little more (particularly during Soho, but that's a very rythmically complex part for him, and he was having trouble keeping both the rhythm he was playing and listening to the click). Brett and I have both done the click track thing quite a few times, so it was not an issue for either of us.
I think that we are going to be ready for the recording session next weekend.
