Work Sucks - A M-F Daily Diary

Today work sucks because…

  • Today is the first day back after a three day weekend.
  • 20% of our staff was at burning man and some of them only brought their bodies back.
  • I have several meeting scheduled.  I hate meetings.
  • My chair still appears to be bad for my back.
  • All I can think about is wanting to be on the road recovering from last night’s sold out show.

 

Music Rocks - A “When I Get Time” Daily Diary

Led Zeppelin and More

For those of you who read the last post, which according to our stats was me and our marketing guru, Mark Davidson, you know that this weekend may have included a ride on the mushroom bus for me (for legal reasons, it may not have).  Here is what I learned:

  1. Led Zeppelin is still the best band that ever walked the earth.
  2. Ramble On is still one of the best songs of all times, hands down.
  3. Robert Plant’s lyrics are mind blowing, especially when your mind is already being blown.
  4. Very little music qualifies as good mood music when you’re on the bus but, if your objective is to appreciate music and craftsmanship of it, the bus is a great place to check out any feel-good music.
  5. Dark Side of the Moon is not an album, it’s a spaceship.  If you can afford a ticket, you should definitely ride that ride.

Music rocks.  It cannot be said enough.

The Mint - August 31st, 2008

Last night we played to a solid crowd at The Mint in Los Angeles.  Highlights:

  1. A very successul surprise party for a friend that brought in an extra 50 people.
  2. Two 45 minute sets, instead of our usual one.
  3. Decent mailing list response.
  4. Sold four t-shirts!
  5. Marked the bathroom with one of our stickers.
  6. Got shit-faced.

And, athough I won’t put it on the official list, let me just say that our new re-mixed version of Take What I Get sounds really fucking cool on shrooms.
