Yeowch!!
The cavity I have in my furthest back left molar is screaming at me to stop eating Oreo cookies.

Been listening to the 2 albums I've been working on ceaselessly during my commute. I believe mixes are done except for six songs: 01 WHITE CHOCOLATE , 02 HOUSE, 05 TALIA, 10 MASTERSON THE BAT , 11 MARILYN MONROE'S DIARY and 12 LIVE MINNOWS.

Thank you! Yeah, I looked at a GOooooorgeous space last year, but it was 4th floor walk-up. I totally had to decline because I am too lazy/old for such antics!
xxanastasiaxx:
So good to hear from you! I've been wondering how you are doing! I have a few unfinished creative projects and I'm trying not to beat myself up about it, I'm usually too tired when I get home to do anything about it too.

Here's to the summer....or tomorrow..or maybe the next day... smile

Ps. Chelsea girls is a good one..

Though I've traveled extensively through time, I am unable to halt my own chronologial aging process. I like to think that immortality would taste good, but it would probably corrupt me into an eternal prison of my own ennui.

Maybe I'll treat myself to some new music?
xxanastasiaxx:
So did you treat yourself to new music? if so what..I need some new music to listen too while i'm TRYING to create.

so how is life in Jersey? I'm going to be going back and forth next month again, but they will be short trips. I'm going to be there for a week or so in December..we'll do lunch if you are not busy. smile

You might want to check out Van Der Graaf Generator's Still Life, if you don't know it. I'm guessing you do, though.

Having an 11 month old son doesn't make for a lot of time to write journals these days. However it is fun playing blocks!! ooo aaa
xxanastasiaxx:
It's all fun and games until you step on one in your bare feet... wink I'm in the process of packing ( this is the LAST time i'm moving...I swear) so I don't have a lot of time to write journals either..

Hope you & yours are having a great summer!
tigerlily:
ooo blocks! and how about all the repetitive song singing! and diaper changing! yay!!

(i'm taking care of a 12 mos. old, so i get it wink )

it was good to hear a little peep out of your in my journal. i've missed you in these parts!

Since I last posted, I recorded 35 tracks for two full length albums. Feels good. Won't be getting back in the studio until late August for mixing.

Having a pool party or two this summer. Gonna catch up with some old pals. And have a Pina Colada or two.

xxanastasiaxx:
Well, thank you sir, I'll keep an eye out for the invite. smile Hopefully, I'll be in the area. Since the boys are now well into their teens, and preteens, it's no longer "cool" to be seen with me (oh the horror) so they are usually on a fishing boat somewhere when we are in the area. maybe I can borrow someones kid.. smile

sureality:
I am so glad you enjoyed the new Alexsandria Shoot. Check out my journal for behind the scenes.

My corporate job exhausts me as much as composing, performing and recording music energizes me. Mixed this weekend, but still far from completing X THE UNKNOWN. Recording sessions for BELLS OF ORCHIDS begin on Friday.

Fragmented film shots flim-flam in my hopper.

I need to see the dentist about my cracked tooth. And I need a shave.

I can certainly sympathize with the day job draining the energy and the creative work bringing it back. Even knowing this, I sometimes can't strike up the energy to start the creative work. One hopes you always press on.

I've been avoiding the dentist myself. Some of his previous repair work needs touching up. I hope you make it there before I do.
xxanastasiaxx:
thanks and how are your creative projects coming along? smile I still intend to spend some down time at the shore..I'll let you know when. There are no decent diners in Western Ma.

I'm going to my 15th year college reunion on Saturday.

Maybe someday I'll take all the footage I have from there and make a Godard-like study of nostalgia.

Today, though I'm still making notes on the mixes for the Teeth album, so that I can polish it off when Beel returns from Europe.

Side note: I've also been obsessed with Prince lately (not due to...

What is this Prince you speak of? Darkness is all very well, but really, it doesn't cut it when you have to impress a stadium-full wink

I cancelled my membership, because I hate the new interface so much, and I can either suck it up or quit; so I quit.
If you need to find me, try hoth_resident@yahoo.co.uk

It was nice being connected, if ever so distantly, to an actual artist.

I wish you well.

Taking a slight break in my musical endeavors to work on some visual art this week, preparing 3 pieces for my Alumni show. Tonight, worked on "BLUTO FOUND THE PICTURES", a diptych that shows half-naked Polaroids of a model, juxtaposed with a threatening letter to me from her boyfriend BLUTO, who is pissed off about the session.

Here's the text of BLUTO's letter:

Well, earlier this week (on Tuesday), Lord Claud and I went into NY to continuing the mixing on the latest Teeth album. Things are going very well, in fact, I'm particularly proud of my performance on Live Minnows which I recorded this week. All the pieces are now in place for the final mix-down.

Thinking about the packaging, I've been looking at CD packaging on...

Blimey. I'm not used to being this close to the creative process. (Except when it's the kid, of course. Somehow that doesn't seem to count. shocked )

Personally I'm a Hernandez man. (Jaime, mostly; fabulous light/shade. Beto's too cartoonish, somehow, and Mario's much to busy.)

Mixes continue; Beel posted roughs of X the Unknown and White Chocolate. Yesterday I had time to work on some yellow photoshop nudes of one of my pals from high school who recently posed nude for me. I'm incorporating the photos into a piece that I believe I'll be calling "Oranges and Lemons".

That'll be one of 3 pieces going in the Alumni show...I'll need...

All of this sounds good. I wish I was doing something creative :/
I guess copyright would prevent you posting pics of your work?
