BAD MOOD.

Okay so I'm in a massively bad mood today. The university promised this morning despite the frankly pathetic amount of snow, that despite all classes cancelled, the FMAS (faculty of media, arts and society) facilities would remain open. Including the studios.

After yesterdays disastrous blow, there was a minute chance that I could still get the album out and on itunes before christmas if I worked my butt of today and over the next few days.

However they have since published on the university website that this would no longer be the case and that all buildings including FMAS would be locked by 5:30. My studio booking time, as yesterday, was 5pm till 8pm. GREAT.

what this basically means is that there is pretty much no chance now that the album can be out before Christmas, and further to that, won't be out till at least February. This is for several reasons: firstly, because of the need to book studios so far in advance replacement slots for next week will be pretty much impossible, secondly, I'm scheduled to go home on the 13th which is 10 days from now, go back on the 3rd of January then have loads of university work hand ins , and thirdly, I only have just under half of the album completed. and its not even the strongest half.

Further to this, it takes about a month for the music to get on itunes from the time of submission.

there's a minute possibility I might be able to borrow the studio at my old school when I'm at home, although I would feel extremely bad about doing so and the quality wont be as good, or that I will release what I've got done come December the 13th, at least to my bandcamp and you guys can let me know what you think of it.

Sorry, if any of you guys were looking foward to it. My apologies. I tried my hardest.

my bandcamp btw is www.lukehammond.bandcamp.com
