From 11/14/05:
Ok, so it's been a while (Todd...) sue me!
What's new? I guess I'll work backwards.
Sunday was beautiful, and a good day to finish prepping for winter...turned the motor home around with the help of the boy, standing in traffic helping me back up...so I could back it up the drive to be ready for spring's easy access.
Saturday night got a gig from our new "booking agent" at the href="http://www.blackpointinn.com/">Black Point Inn in Prouts Neck, Scarborough. A nice duo gig with Lindsey, and our new band: href="http://www.lucidjazz.com/">Lucid. We had a good crowd that stayed throughout the performance (only 8:30-10) and clapped after every song. A long ride home though...! Check out the website...there's a CD up and coming...
Last week we had an awesome href="http://www.roundabout-theband.com">Roundabout rehearsal last Wednesday, and tried out a new horn section...sax and trumpet. They were both awesome, and sight read the charts like mad, as well as ad-libbed some parts that weren't called for, but were tasteful and melodic, and sparse.
Well we just found out that the sax player can't/won't come on board...totally understandable that he just doesn't feel right about bowing out of a current working situation. My hope is that the trumpet player has someone else who might fit the bill.
Finally got my old desktop computer back up and running (thanks to Rockbound Computer and $500 bucks!) that's been down since March! I got 2 200 Gig hard drives running a raid-array so that I have constant backup finally! Good for the customers!
I can't sell 2 of my friggin' old cars...the '86 Scirocco (has a little rust and needs a little tlc, but runs fine, I want $1200) and the '93 Buick Century Wagon...runs great, has a nice JVC 200 watt CD player, but has a squealing transmission and I'm asking $700.
Well, it's 11:30, that's enough for now!
( I tried to publish this post 10 times during the week from home, and it wouldn't take!!)
