well, my band isnt really that rich :L
so can only pay for about 3 hours of recording, we want to get 3/4 songs DONE. but I know this wont happen
SO, the plan was.
record drums, bass and vocals and guitar SOLO tracks, then add multiple guitars at home on garageband,but then is the issue.
I find garageband's mixing is plain awful, so what would I do about mixing the studio tracks with the garageband tracks?

I don't think it will work the way you think it will. I think you need to do one or the other. If you want to do studio then you need to practice your ass off so you can knock it out fast. Maybe go 3 hours and then save money and go back. These things take time if you don't have money. Do you have a iphone? There is some unreal software that you can use on an iphone that won't break the bank. Were you planning on having it mixed down in the studio or leaving with raw tracks?
I can tell you this, if it's meant to be it will happen no matter what you record with. You have to go full out and see what happens. Talk to the studio and see if they need help cleaning up or anything that would get you more time. If they see your passion they may help you. If anyone in the band is really talented offer their services for other artists in return for studio time. Go for broke, you got nothing to lose.
