Scramblin'

I've been scramblin' lately. I apologize for the lack of entries here at P2G.

South Mountain Magic should become available (finally) before the end of this month. Consequently Christina and I are busy trying to get portions of the SanityCheck.net website filled with content. Yeah, I know, a novel concept.

Also I've been working to finish up a recording from 2004. Haha, actually it isn't quite as bad as it sounds... it is a live recording from an annual event that a buddy of mine throws. The event took place on 18 September 2004. In August of 2005 my pal, Slide (the event's sire), returned the rough tracks to me with his edits notated (a hell of a lot of work on his part) so that I could piece it all together before the annual event that was scheduled for the following September. Well as all of you loyal readers know, Katrina hit at the end of August and I spent the next 3-4 months working non-stop on behalf of the relief effort and the holiday season cleaning up the remnants of the relief effort. I missed the 2005 Blues Jam, and those who did attend didn't have the recording from 2004. Sad but unavoidable.

I've been working on the recording and I sent the first draft to Slide yesterday. Yay! I think the record is both side-splittingly-funny and filled with some great music. That said, the event is invitation only (and it is a highly desirable invite!) and getting to hear the disc usually requires offering Slide some exceedingly kinky sexual favors (dependent upon his interests at the time).

Over the past few weeks I concluded that my studio computer system was ready for an upgrade. As I mentioned previously, I had amassed quite a bit of new software (upgrades) that I hadn't been able to install because of the SMM project's near-complete status. After installing it all, I've concluded that my studio system was bottle-necking at the processor. So I've ordered a new system and even upgraded my audio hardware. As a result, the next couple of weeks will be spent converting.

The summary here is that South Mountain Magic is on the way. Christina and I are working feverishly to get the SanityCheck.net online store back online before the release and I'm upgrading my studio system in the interim while finishing up some fun outstanding projects.

We're busy, but I hope to spend April working on new Booze Monkey recordings.

I'm psyched for that.

The sound of me giggling should be earsplitting...
