She somehow made an American Flag dress look great which is fucking remarkable, way to go designer/dress-maker/I-don't-know-the-proper-title

Before I ask a question I just wanted to say that I was at the Jason Noble benefit shellac played in Louisville a few years back, and it was a great show to be sure but it was also great to just see people showing support for a local scene, and though I never met him, a seemingly solid guy. Kudos.

Based on what I've read bands say about recording with you, it seems like you have a very hands off approach to recording an album. I'm thinking of how you're not gonna go in there and say "Well this would sound a lot better with a trombone solo" as well as your general style of getting the band just in a room and playing rather than dissecting all the parts and piecing it back together.

Since it's my impression that this isn't generally how albums are recorded, did you get a lot of flack (flak?) if you suggested this method early on in your recording career? Or did you not really let this style loose until your got your own studio/were running the show?
