Cookout Concert

i went to a very cool cookout today. A good friend had a nice Sunday cookout, backyard bar-b-que. Hot dogs, hamburgers, chips soda (no beer for me, i had to come back to the studio and mix later, oh yeah, and i had to drive, there was that too). So, the coolest part of the cookout was that my friend invited a couple touring musicians to come play. We all ended up piling into the living room and listening to two guys play a bunch of their original songs, kind of in a VH1 Storytellers fashion. It was actually really cool. before i proceed, check Syd and Todd out....

So it seems Syd and Todd are touring the country right now, mostly playing clubs at night, but they are doing this thing where if you are somewhere close to their tour route, and want them to come play at your house, (for a price, a reasonable one) they'll come play. So there we all were, in the living room, soaking in some good original acoustic music. A very nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Of course its now 5am Monday morning and I've been mixing all night, which for me is a really nice way to spend an evening.
