DAGO'S WEEK IN REVIEW
It's that time again...
Numbs: Tomorrow should be the final nail in the coffin for “Nfinity”. One more night night of mixing and mayhem at AP’s! Once it is done and we have settled on a cover (the picture you see here IS a cover, not THE cover) I will go ahead and POST the track listing. I cannot believe it…we are going to hit the 12/12 street date that is in the SLUG ad. Still no word from Gunnar, I hope he is well. The CAPO guys are throwing a GIGANTIC New Years Eve Party at the Mc Kay Events center in Orem and have asked us to play. Last year there were 9,000 peeps at this thing…however, we don’t know if we can do it based on what’s going on with Zen One. Personally, I’d like to do it (HUGE opportunity) but we need to make sure our house is in order first before we play out again. I’ll go into my feelings about the new LP in detail after I have heard it… in it’s entirety with all the songs sequenced together how they should be. So far I am getting a positive vibe.
9 to 5: I have a new schedule…I work Thursday-Sunday and I am off Monday-Wednesday. I report to a guy named Mike who reminds me of early CRE “Ron” which is a good thing. He asks me for input on what goes bad and what goes good…he actually seems to care and I’m not sure how to take this. Maybe he is trying to figure out where I stand or maybe he really wants to improve things? Either way, my 10-4 attitude is making life a whole lot better over there. Anything is to be expected.
Day 2 Day: Elektra asked me today if Bruce Willis is still alive? I think she was checking to make sure he would be doing the voice over work for R.J. in “Over The Hedge 2”…if they make one. I made a mistake on NOT taking her to the studio last week. She told me over the phone that she didn’t feel “important” to me. It made me bawl, HARD. I can’t believe she would think that? That is HEAVY for a 6 year old to be thinking that at all. I admit I get wrapped up in LIFE with my music, my jobby job, relationship, family, etc. We ALL balance a lot of things but I have to start making it a priority to point out that my life would NOT be full without her in it. We went to the Mayan tonight to watch the cliff divers and polish off “The Volcano”. She put the finishing touches on my Xmas Tree “Silver and Gold 2006”. I hugged her when it was done and told her it was PERFECT.
I haven’t made a Xmas list yet. People are asking me what I want…it’s a good question. I mean everything that I have basically “wanted” as far as material goods I have picked up myself thru the year (Xbox 360, random games, miscellaneous CD’s, shirts, hoodies, jeans, etc). I am kinda clueless as to what I really need. Maybe I will make a completely asinine request slip and give it to all parties with obtuse and elite purchases on it. Think of it as a “Scavenger Hunt” Christmas. It sounds good in principle and it would be funny as hell to see if they could get all the items on the list but then I would be left holding the bag o’ ISHT. A bag of stuff I don’t need in the first place. I’m undecided.
Peace-DAG!
Current Likes: The “Holiday” scented pine cones at Michael’s, The Utah Jazz (play Milsap 30 minutes a game and he will be the rookie of the year), Marvel’s Ultimate Alliance on PSP, “The Fountain”…even though I still haven’t recovered & waking up rested with Jack, Blackie, Mousey and Kdawg surrounding me.
Dislikes: People leaving movies during the movie they picked and paid for (Is it because Tim Allen wasn’t in it?), Getting used to having my cheese moved at my work (it’s a metaphor), The camouflage pattern that is emerging on my carpet & food hidden away in my crisper (cure for cancer, maybe?).
