Gig week

I know I don't practise as such but it would be nice to get some studio time this week. .Tuesday and I've been watching Broc since before lunch, it's now almost half three and barely worth turning the studio on. Still doing the good karma thing. It will make me a better person.  

Apparently the woman who drove into the back of me is claiming on my insurance. Weird but I guess I'l have the hassle of contesting it. People are annoying. 

Wednesday, had a nice time jamming. Considered reducing pile by dropping the DD-20 and mixer, then either taking the new 505 or taking the old one but using the two Cosmos inputs for 2 different instruments. Decided too complicated and will stick to usual way. Pootled around, tried backing up GR-1 project and almost buggered it up. Sounding good. 

Thursday and a beautiful morning. Can't help wishing we were walking today rather than tomorrow. Will pack up this afternoon and make any final decisions about leaving stuff at home then. Should probably power things up before breaking down to be sure I really didn't break that GR-1 project. Yesterday's recordings sounding nice over breakfast - quite pastoral in places. 

Ah, walk cancelled tomorrow so it'll be beer, I guess. Maybe walk Monday as meant to be nice until then. 

Gig went well. Monitoring not great but just threw a load of noises into loopers and played with the levels, seemed to have quite a lot of good moments - recording didn't work too well though, should probably have tried that in advance from this mixer. Did a mic recording so should be able to get an impression anyway. Gordon the main act did some really nice stuff. Sensible man had laptop and Ableton. 

Anyway, Friday and it's hard to imagine many better days than this. Perfection OK, such days would end with a blowjob but even writing that sounds greedy, like a wistful old man. Sunny day, beer, smokes, putting studio back together, hearing gig recording and putting it out with the Wednesday jams, working on novel, which is progressing nicely, sitting in sun, drinking beer etc. etc.
