As predicted in my last CD Project Update, I finished recording all of the tracks yesterday.
It was a strange feeling though, like I was saying goodbye to my songs because I had worked so very closely with them over the last 18 months or so and in that time, I had gotten to know the songs inside and out.
Now I have to let them go and be mixed, mastered and packaged into a CD that I’ll be very proud of. No more overdubbing, no more studio experiments… That’s it, finished.
It all seems very final doesn’t it?
I must say though that my songs now (with the knowledge that there’s a CD coming out) take on a whole new perspective when I play them live. It’s like the time that I’ve taken with them in the studio has given me a whole new outlook on how I can present my songs in a live environment.
As a live performer first and foremost, I’m very, very excited by this realisation.
Another reason that I’m excited is that today I started on my CD Marketing Plan. I want to make sure that I can get everything done by April to June of 2012 as this is when I want the CD launch to be held.
Hopefully by that time people have recovered from the madness that is February and March and would be ready to start going out again even though it’s the end of Autumn/beginning of Winter.
I can now see that the recording of the tracks was the easy part. Getting everything to the finished product stage is where the fun truly begins.
As usual I’ll keep you all posted…
Peace,
Corey

This year I decided to join the many thousands of men all over Australia who are growing a moustache during the month of November to raise funds for Beyond Blue and the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.
I thought about doing it last year just to see how I would go but I missed out. I made a pact with myself that I would give it a go in 2011 and now as I now move into day 23 of Movember 2011 I’m realising why I don’t grow a moustache in the first place.
First of all it’s been really itchy just above my top lip for a little while now and quite frankly I’m over it and secondly, it’s a really unattractive look.
Even right now I just want to go and shave the bloody thing off but I did make a promise to my mate Bryan Foley and the team that I belong to called the “Improver Groovers” that I would stick it out to the very end.
Besides, there’s only 7 more days to go before I can resume my normal facial hair growing activities.
Here are some images that have tracked my moustache growing over the past 23 days

Day 23 (Today)
Not long ago someone told me that I was starting to look like porn star Ron Jeremy in which my reply was “I wish.”
At the end of the day though, the whole reason for putting myself through this follicular torture is to raise some money and this is where you all come into play here.
All you need to do is to go to http://mobro.co/coreystewart and click on the “Donate To Me” button underneath my profile photo on the top left hand side of the page.
Feel free to donate any amount you wish but remember, your donating to a couple of very worthwhile causes so dig in deep.
I wonder what my face is going to look like at day 30?
Peace,
Corey
My sincere apologies for the sporadic nature of these CD Project updates. I’ll try to do better from now on
In the months since my last CD Project update, the recording process has been a little stop/start with illness or unavailability of either myself or Anthony Stewart getting in the way however, I’m happy to say that all of the instrumental recording were completed a couple of weeks ago.
The Running Sheet
The only thing left to do now are the backing vocals.
Yesterday I had Alex Frost come in and put some vocals on a couple of songs “Seeing Stars” and “A Girl Like You” which turned out really well.

My goal was to get all recording finished by the end of November and I’m happy to say that this goal is still very achievable.
I’ve now finalised the 12 songs that are going onto the CD. They are (in alphabetical order)
I’m not sure what I’m going to do with the tracks that are left over but I’m leaning towards giving some music away as a way of promoting the CD. I’l keep you all posted as to what I decide.
I think now is the time for me to start putting together some ideas for the design and the pre and post launch promotion/marketing of the CD. Maybe a photo session is going to be needed as well.
So much to do, so little time.
Peace,
Corey
