There's gold in them hills....

Finally, a deal came along on a Gold and we grabbed it - thanks Richard! With the horrific exchange rate and the fact that L&M just raised their prices, it was looking pretty bleak. But now, at last it's here, and going into the Z I think, to break in...and then we can turn up without fear of blowing the blue!

Busy weeks ahead..full speed on Bobby's stuff, and 13 vocals to record for Melissa...more work for Jason, and welcome to Troye!

When in doubt...

....post a picture of yourself.

I don't know, that's all I've got tonight....we tried getting up before noon and it's midnight and I'm wiped.

Worked on iPod song, Bobby's and made cookies...missed a call with Johnny, but did hear a cool Christmas tune.

Better luck tomorrow!

Happy Valentine's Day

I couldn't decide...

...much of anything today...which amp I liked better for recording, which post recording late, late night series we are watching that I like best: Lost 4 or Band of Brothers (OK I lie here, BoB for sure), or which summer picture of Buster to post....

iPod song is nearly finished, did guitars and bass today. Listened to Simon's piano and downloaded all Jason's guitars for 6 songs..it will be a busy weekend, oh and Scotty wants to come over and write some music.

In my spare moments I found some great artists for the Christmas album, read Richard King's new lyrics, finally heard back from Aaron A, found the best Vancouver postering guy "...you drop the posters at the door, and put the payment (cash only) through the mail slot....", and found out about Dan Lavry's new Black series pieces...very interesting! (http://lavryengineering.com/).....oh, and I thought about summer...

What Bill Moyers said....

(He) called it a remarkable example of "the simple yet transformative power of music... to touch something in each of us."

Variety acknowledged it as "a great showcase for just what incredible, thoroughly accessible popular music is being made worldwide."

What do you think?

I think Bono would be pleased.

I can't wait to be involved.


Oh and so happy! Tess is going to be a part of VVC IV, I feel honored...

Busy day...

People coming and going, shopping, appointments, firming up Bobby's track listings, got three tracks back from Jason, got my mic back from Oregon, talking to artists about Christmas project....and it's only 10pm...thank goodness for sushi = the ultimate food on the go...

Finland is good to go!

Happy days, just got the ok from Jouni, we're good to go to print. So there is officially a big tick beside that on the list.
I can't 'officially' put it out of my mind until I have it in my hand. So another month....

Working on drums for the iPod song, doing posters for upcoming shows, bookings, video stuff and bookkeeping. Didn't have time to actually watch the Grammy's, but glanced at updates here and there...so happy for Alison and Bela and all the boys on Cluster Pluck...but mostly...way to go Pete Seeger! I remember when Eva was out last year for a visit, she told us about working with him back in the day.

JW will be here soon for his traditional bagel and gossip session after hockey, back into the groove....

This week is paperwork, meeting up with artists and tracking for Melissa and Bobby. I know there's more, but I can't think, I'm running circles in my head and jumping for joy over Finland!
