Hey, have you ever heard the anecdote about Brecht debating whether or not a play could start with an ellipses? No? Clearly, you never spent way too much money on film school...or have had a sweaty one night stand with punctuation. Oh, NYC. So much to answer for.
Anyway, I wrote, and thought I had saved, an entire post about our first day back in Los Angeles (Spanish to English translation: Land of Fake Boobs.) However, blogger, or whatever it is called now, hated my saved post so much that it unsaved it and now I have to start from scratch. HATE MY LIFE!!!
Paraphrasing: Things are great and all is well. Despite some major malfunctions with my gear (thank you, Coffey Sound LA, for helping me out - - and having free pizza for "customer appreciation Fridays"), I can't complain. I'm very happy to be back in LA, where I may or may not live, depending on what day of the week it is and who you ask. I'm also super stoked to be reunited with the Home, James cast and crew, having missed them terribly (missed the pay) for the three days I was back on the east coast. Oh, Jesus...
Okay. Here's the truth. I'm only writing this update because Alyx (sp?) Rossetti (sp?) is mad at me for not updating my blog for the past few days. The fact that I live my life in airports and shitty New England prep schools is lost on her and I am EXPECTED to entertain her at all times. And given that her husband is my boss at the moment: fine. It's the internet equivalent of "Dance, Monkey, dance.." And I will. Because I'm a groovy monkey...I guess. Also, do we have an answer on that ellipses question yet?
Truth is, I have nothing to talk about yet. So, here is a picture of Super Su's refrigerator. It proves that he is more machine than man:
Seriously? Not even a bottle of Sriracha (not being racist, btw...love that shit) or Arm & Hammer baking soda? Clearly, Super Su has never eaten. He's powered by F Stops and a strong desire to "get coverage."
In truth, the LA leg of this has been out-of-the-gate insanity and, much like a full re-cap of Tulsa, will take a few days to get my head around. I also have a lot of real tech-nerd gear talk that I want to go over soon, and I know how much you all hate that - - even though you're reading what is allegedly a sound nerd blog.
Side notes: I'm super bummed that The Amazing Rick "Hollywood" Dacey shaved off his beard, and think that Mary Mary Why You Buggin' may have the world's (LA's) greatest apartment ever. Seriously Mary, let's ship you back off to the North Shore and let me steal your place.
Met a coyote two days ago. We saw eye to eye on a lot of things. We mostly saw eye to eye on how great breakfast burritos smell. Bummer for him was that I had one and he didn't. Night, kids.
BTW, coming up soon: To Liver or Die in Los Angeles...and no, that's not a typo; how to mic people while they're naked; and, on a serious note, my review of the new Sound Devices 664 integrated mixer/recorder, as based solely on other people's reviews and futzing with it for two minutes at Coffey Sound the other day.
