Busy weekend- went to the op early to watch the uvm game & play pool & eat complimentary bagels… uvm lost & so did I (at least I made some sweet shots…) met up with brian & ben & todd & tanner- todd had just come back from re-arranging the studio- now there is so much more room & I’m going to be able to play in there with my new music friends…

At 9pm the “blogger conference” met up- not that many bloggers showed up, but it was just as I expected- me, tan, and jay (with the lovely Jamie Lynn) it was fun talking & drinking- jay and Jamie are great people & real easy to get along with. Eventually the whole party moved over to jp’s where we saw some excellent karaoke thanks to ben and Rachael…watching ben sing ‘love fool’ was really an eye opening experience. After that we parted ways- me to bed, the rest of those crazy bastards to the op trying to make last call- I guess they did but it wasn’t pretty…

At the greendoor studio last night the lines between percussion & drone & electronic music were smashed to bits by Jason Kahn & Jon Mueller- I could only stay for the first set I was so tired- & I’m bummed I missed Greg sitting in with them because he had his gong & a couple frame drums laid out & ready to go… I’m sure it was amazing…

9 more work days to go…

It was great to hang out with you too! We'll definitely have to do again soon, but with substantially less alcohol :)

JB, did you do it? Did you quit? if so, many happy returns to you - change is GOOD! I am sure some cool doors will open as this one closes, that is how it works!

I am so SO happy for you JB! Yes, i think it goes without saying that something good will happen - big leaps scare the crap outta you but invariably pay off n the end. And hell, you won't have to get up at an ungodly early hour anymore!

And thanks! It is sorta my "dream job" sooo I am awaiting the dropping of the other shoe but...in the meantime, I am loving it! And if Party Star has any music you are ok with me using, email me!

I wish! but, unfortunately, "party star" is kyles band, not mine...and they dont have any music recorded yet...so we'll have to wait a little while to exploit them!
