OK, here's a question--why, why, why, when I did a forum search on "recording" I got NO results??? And now, there are 50+ links to related threads? (this isn't the first time this has happened)

ANYWAY!!!!

String change--gotta do that ASAP!!! I'd've *never* thought of that!

Drink Water, have fun, know the material cold, have fun, try a click track and see if it helps, have fun, don't listen to my vocals (*always* a helpful suggestion!), have fun, tell the engineer if something doesn't sound right, have fun, and...let's see...postpone if we get the sniffles...AND

have fun!

Every one a good idea.

I'll try to have fun as I slug down my tea 'n' brandy cold remedy before listening to myself sing something I've never attempted while accompanying myself on my rusty-stringed git-box. And I'll be sure to tell the engineer that his faulty mic placement is the source of my bad sound! ;> (now wouldn't *that* be the recording session from hell?)

Seriously though--I will surely take all your suggestions to heart. Especially, I will remember to enjoy the process and *have fun*. Thank you all for the advice and support!
