Sundays Govannen gig was at a wild birthday party of afriend of a friend - 100 people in a small country pub - we got there to play at 6pm - everyone there had been drinking shoulder to shoulder from noon. They were up for a good time. So upberat jigs and reals and classic pop songs. 2 8/10yr old kids in particular danced manically all evening. We sold 3 Govannen Water is Wide CDs.
Monday - I spent the day mixing Clookai's album - mixed 5 tracks - 3 to go, then premastering - might finish it tomorrow. Brother Jerry came over to go through the summary of mums estate stuff. Pretty much all sorted now thanks to his hard work. We went out for noodle bar and cocktail ( Manhatten each - a family tradition in honour of our folks) with G in piano bar where I have a gig soon to check the place out.
Still battling with new laptop setup - XP pro is now hanging on "Windows is Shutting Down" - according to the web forums there are any number of reasons for this so I'll slowly start at the top of the list and walk thru. I tried getting some sound out of the soundcard - distorted :-( re-installed the soundcards drivers - seemd to work OK. Need to get rid of a lot of "stuff" from startup and programs I'll never use and tune xp to lean and mean.
For those setting up pc music systems and know as little about computers as I do I found this set of links and articles very groovy - http://www.podcomplex.com/pc/
