Feb. 10th, 2004 10:47 pmA bit residually tired but I did useful things.
I spent much of the day remasteringt he DVD audio which was good for the soul. Found quite a few little improvements that only me and an oscilliscope will notice - bar the cleaning that is done.
Also went to bank, did a food shop, did a rather nice meal of Quorn, veg in tomato sauce & spagetti.
I also looked at cameras online as the Hotel told me that mine had not shown up - I wanted to say "no it wouldn't coz it was stolen from my room" but there was no use dumping on the receptionist - i just recommended they get better locks -she said they are being replaced soon. Can't decide how good a camera i really need - i just do snaps at gigs mostly for the website so maybe a dinkyer thing next time - all the reviews say go Canon - probably Ixus II which is posh actually. Probably a cheaper solution if I don't mind it being boring - spent rather a lot lately on gadgets...
Some nice news came in - the livemusic I did to the Indian Dance & video thing a while back - the filmer asked me to record the music so the video can stand alone - could be fun and there will be a little dosh.
Need to turn my head away from filk to new age etc - New Age Fest at the w/e and I'm playing with harps of Avalon, a solo set and Llewellyn & Juliana.
Dates are being discussed for recording with percussionist at Ll's studio - early March
Next week i will record some atmospherique piano music. Better listen to some old piano tapes of mine in case there are some gem tunes I've forgotten - for some reason I have a resistance to do this. maybe like looking at very old photos...
Oh btw - here are the lyrics to my new song that won the Sam silly song Award. Mostly cheap rhymes and in-jokes...
