That is funny ...
Got a call two weeks ago by a songwriter from NYC if he could do some demo stuff in my small home studio...
I got reference by my guitar tech - ....

I said sure, the studio is just for my personal use... but why not...
I charge xx by hour is that alright with you.
He agreed.....

When he came in I was shocked it was one of the more famous UMP Artists.
I have no idea why he came to my place instead of booking one of the bigger studios.

Now I can say I tracked someone famous.... LOL....

You never know where gigs will come from. I had a similar thing happen to me when I was in my early 20's, got a call from the leader of a band that got my number from another artist I worked with. They needed a place to track while they were in town doing a few gigs and then vacationing (when I was in Destin, FL.) Turned out it was a massive Christian pop band and the record we did for them stayed at #1 for 9 weeks and the either won them a grammy for it or was nominated for one, I can't remember.

Anyway he was a friendly person, and It just was acoustic guitar vocals. I cant believe that I did it, when he left I got weak knees and had to sit down in the kitchen....
