It was my first time at the helm for recording sessions, and my first time recording live stuff all on my own in like a decade (used to just do guitar into an audio interface, no mics).

Drummer is a super pro recording homie, and said that there was enough weird stuff going on in the recordings that I got that its best to just do them all over again kitty-birthday-sad

Hey, just learn your lesson. Listen to the tracks, identify the weirdness, and think about what you can do differently to fix it. Also, take your time getting everything setup, listen to each mic to make sure it's good before committing to start doing takes. I'm sure homie would rather have a slightly longer session than have to come back a third time. That being said, fewer well placed mics is greater than more poorly placed mics.

We did like 5 mics for each guitar so I think thats what it was
