So yeah…

Jun 20, ’07 9:47 PM

So I haven’t posted in over a month, which is a bit lame. Anyway, life has been a bit hectic. Doing classes full-time (16 credits folks), gigging weekly, occasional trips out-of-town for gigs or recreation, and on top of all that Amber moved in for the summer. So yeah, it’s been overwhelming, but in a good way, especially that Amber is here (no surprise I like my girlfriend, right?)

As for my previous entry, still a work in progress, but the Chet album slowly edges forward. Boston Common continues to gig every Thursday at Paddy O’s down by Faneuil Hall. And to anyone who reads this, feel free to leave comments, that’s what they’re there for.

Recording some jazz

Apr 22, ’07 11:15 PM

My friend Adriane Yeager, a vocalist, is working on a 3 song demo of her jazz singing, & asked me to play some upright bass on the recordings, which is very cool, as I haven’t played any jazz in a while. Definitely be cool to get back in the studio with the big bass. I’ll post links to listen to the recordings when she gets them to me.

Whew.

The last few weeks have been HECTIC. Spring break was two weeks ago; went to NYC with the fam for St. Paddy’s weekend, then flew back to Boston for a Matt Germak Band gig at TT the Bear’s. Ended up sick for a few days, then back to NYC to play CBGB with the Germak Band. That was awesome, if loud as hell. Then I spent that weekend hanging with Amber (yay!) and working at the Apple Store.

Last week was back to classes, plus checking out Rear Window Studios with Matt Germak as we begin inquiring about cutting a full album. Went searching for a condo that Thursday, and found the place for next year. Friday was spent at work, followed by karaōke w/ coworkers after we closed the store. Saturday was an early day shift (9:30–6:30), followed by rehearsal w/ Jenny Martin for her recording sessions next weekend (two 10-hour all-day sessions at Mix One, hoo boy.)

2am recording sessions

Sep 29, ’05 5:09 AM

You know, it was SO easy to stay up until 4am last night after seeing some awesome funk being played down at Wally’s, but tonight I’m having trouble getting to just 2am tonight, much less PLAYING for an hour or two when i get there. Need…caffeine…

But on the note of that Wally’s excursion last night, holy SHIT! Saw Sam Kininger’s band playing with this ridiculous keys player I’ve known here & there around Berklee; turns out he’s been touring with Brian McKnight & is about to head out on tour with Stanley Clarke. Whoa. Their pocket was DEEP. And I mean DEEEEEEEP.

But now I really need to go find stimulants of some sort.

Must. Have. CAFFEINE.
