I am a Victim

Another victim. An over-zealous client abusing the good nature of the organization I was doing sound for. Hey can you do a dinner set? Then take a break? Why don't you keep playing, and take a break later...I'll get up and talk. The guy never got up and talked, and the band played until midnight. We started at 7:00. 5 hours of mixing. 2 hours of sound check. My ears are still closed after that. Fun night though, great people in the band.

I will say, it was my first time in upstate NY. Pretty dismal. Not a lot of snow. Very grey. I hope the Catskills and Adiroindaks look better than that when it's warm....Remember, I am the victim!

Muse-ings

I get the joy of taking my son to school every morning. So with that, I've been able expose him to music he probably wouldn't listen to with others (my wife). She likes some alternative rock, but mostly mainstream ClearChannel. My son's musical tastes have ranged from The Backstreet Boys and early PopTart stuff when he was a little younger, to more recent power guitar chords stuff like, Nickelback, Trapt, Skillet, and POD. He really enjoyed the new U2 album. But the biggest surprise is Muse. That's what we have been listening to for a few weeks now. He has his favorite songs and they're not the main ones. So I must be rubbing off on him. Let's hope he doesn't turn back to the dark side (pop).



I wore out the first Absolution CD I got, and hadn't really listened to it much since until now. It is an amazing album. I saw them in concert in Oct. Jaw dropping performance. So if you haven't ever listened to Muse, you must. To bad no grammy nominations. We just have to listen to Green Day, Usher, and Alicia Keys. Oh Well........
