Growly gits added. Better?

Definitely. I like it a bunch better.

There are acoustic guitars as well. Do they have some weird chorus on them or something? I would either that that effect off (if possible) or just just drop it. I'd dry up the growly guit just a smidge.

This is coming in to place nicely. IMO of course.

So this guy, Wayne, shows up and in his best English accent he says, "I hear you need some bloody bass guitar."

So I reply, "Please sir, can I have some more."

So he performs an incredible bass guitar part, records it ... and I insert it into the mix ... now above.

Dontcha just love happy endings??

Second listen, on headphones. I'm not even hearing the drums this time. Growly guits way better. Just about perfect. Don't fuck it up. lol

Over the years, I've learned there is a time when enough is enough, right is right, and it's time to walk away from the console. :)
 
Sounding great. Some finer grained feedback...

I'd add some reverb to the backing vocals. I can't believe I just recommended *more* reverb to anything. But I did.

I'd still remove those acoustic rhythm guitars and leave the job to the electric guitars.

There are some spots where the bass is "acting alone" and doing those little fills. There's not enough low end power to those things. They're cool, but they need more "umph."

I might compress the snare just a bit harder and nudge it up a bit.
 
Very Entwhistle bass but could use just a little more bottom end.
Other than that I've nothing to add & you've summed it up - knowing when to leave it be is an art!
 
Wow, this really matured in a short time here! Very good song, I like it a lot. Love the reverby short stops. Kinda sounds like The Who meet Neil Diamond, in a cool way. I too would like more bass please, it sounds good when I hear it, could I have some more? The drims get a little buried too, not the cymbals, bass and snare. Maybe these elements just need some space of their own rather than volume. Make the lyrics about waiting for your wife to get ready when you're going out, that'll learn her.

There is a lot more bottom end in the original file, but I dialed it out to avoid mud. Believe it or not, this is a headphone mix ... and so I may have taken too much out. Thanks Ray!

LOVE the concept for the lyric! I'm eventually going to get around to redoing the main vocal. This was a one-shot placeholder. Agreed on the need for slightly more definition in the drums. I've been futzing with them and I'm still not where I want to be.
