Now I am in hawai'i
Let's hope they dry out soon. Making my sample keyboard work, although the sampler mic is way too low in volume.... Anyhow, I don't want to worry too much. This is holiday!

30 rock
I love this show. Very funny.
Ok, so to catch up, my korg micro sampler arrived this morning and it is great. I managed to put things into it thereby complicating the live show no end, but that's something we can deal with.... :)

Communication?
I would love to think that roads exist with no blockages or paths become apparent as and when we need them.
This truly becomes a quest that we can never achieve. Like the grail, perhaps.
My task is to de escalate my own disappointments.
Peace

Merry Christmas and a happy new year!
Awesome last month of many gigs. All of which were mostly fabulous and very enjoyable.
The Good Hurt was the first trial show, after 2 weeks of frantic rehearsals. A little distracted thanks to a complete schoolboy error of signal flows from my dying computer to the outputs of the mixer.
Remedied eventually, but the show was not such a performance that I wanted.
Durga gave us some great advice the next day, and helped choreograph the next show:
The 3 Clubs managed a lot more focus and projections as well as the choreography. Great show, with Caroline and Gerard in attendance, but NOT Warner Bros: Nick Haussling who was pretty much the focus of putting together the show in the first place.
The Moscow show was absolutely wonderful and meant that we were establishing ourselves with Keith and the attendant kids. Thanks for the attention and encouragement! That was a great fun and together show.
Then, the next day: Cheetah's for Sasha and Huggy. The girls loved it and their dancing was lovely. Next stop: Harvard and Stone. x x
