Walked early and took a shower then tidied up because David Mead was coming over. We put the vocals and some electric guitars on a country song and it really sounds like the Eagles. I wanted to make omelettes but he said he was past that point in the day, but I made him a [...]
Walked the dogs early but fell back to sleep. Made omelettes and they were better with less eggs. Finished a new mix of Melissa’s song and finally finished the mix of a song with Sara Beck. It feels good to clear the decks a little but I still have so many un-demoed songs. It takes [...]
Walked early and started getting into catching up on stuff. Made 2 hot dogs with mustard and pickles and Emerson came over at 11. We worked on a song until 4 and he has way more patience than me, but thank god because it came out really good. Then I walked the dogs to the [...]
Made tea and Leslie said she didn’t need lunch but she wanted some snacks so I made her a PBJ and some cookies. The lawn is like six feet high again so I have to mow today. Walked Posh and mowed while it was still cool. Then Comcast came over and finally fixed the internet [...]
I couldn’t really sleep even though the hotel was nice and the bed was comfortable because I knew we had to drive home so I woke up about 8:30 and turned on the TV. Leslie woke up and we went to Cafe Du Monde and got some coffee and beignets ($7) and I’m glad I [...]
Woke up kind of late and we had to switch hotels which was a nightmare because of the traffic but we finally got it done, then we went to the wedding brunch and Jessica’s father was wearing a shirt that said “Real Men Eat Beaver” and Angelo said there was a whole presentation that we [...]
Drove into New Orleans for Troy Verges and Jessica Maros’ wedding and I really had no idea how much devastation there really was. It went on for miles! I think they just need to knock those crappy buildings down and start over! Not the old historic ones, just the crappily-built-to-begin-with apartments that don’t look like [...]
Walked early, then went to get some supplies for the drive to New Orleans and the internet was down because there was a huge thunderstorm last night. I didn’t know what to do with myself with no internet. But I went to Wild Oats ($49) and Zoe’s ($16) and I probably spent too much money, [...]
Had a Bees rehearsal and it went pretty well. I mean, we’re the Bees. Then I went to the Basement to play drums in Brad Jones’ afro-cuban Jazz Band. Tupper Saussy was there and I like him. He makes me laugh. We did a duet on Rogers and Hart’s “Where or When” and I [...]
