Man, what a couple of busy weeks.
I've been abseiling and rock climbing at Leigh Tor on Dartmoor. Indoor climbing at The Mill on Thurdsday night was a blast. Scaling the dizzy heights. Bit bruised from the harness but well worth it.
Just purchased Ozone 3 from Izotope. I don't know a great deal about mastering, but I'm gonna learn! On the surface it looks like an excellent pluggin. Watch this space!
Arrrgggg!!!!! Someone kick me up the arse!!!!!!

Oh man, another weekend over and I've not recorded my 2 new songs. All written and ready.
Why oh why can't I find the motivation to get up in the "Studio" (loft) and record them.
It's not difficult. I've done it before. I'm a big boy and the loft holds no fears of ghosties/creepies/crawlies or nasties of any other kind. I like my new songs.
I have given myself a headache trying to persuade myself to get up there and get playing.
I had a free day today. I was supposed to be going abseiling, but it was called off 'cos of the weather. Ideal opportunity you'd think. Oh no. I sat on the couch and watched Pirates of the Caribbean: at Worlds End. Then went to sleep.
Granted it was a crappy day weather wise and I could not have recorded the vocals what with the rain frantically syncopating on the roof, but I could have done other tracks.
Hey ho. Next weekend I guess. maybe . . .
Rejection again!

Hey ho,
I can't say too much 'cos you never know who might be reading.
Needless to say, it comes to something when you can't get a job in retail on the high street.
Happy New Year!

Ha, well, there we have it. 2007 is no more.
I managed, with the help of a few friends to get my play-count over 1000 before then end of the year. A small milestone I know, but to me it meant a lot.
Not too much of a hangover today. I drank responsibly. Got up this a.m. and went for a walk on Wimbleball Lake on Exmoor. I've put a couple of photos on facebook if anyone is interested.
