Oh my!

Musicians, wow..lots happened. Thursday night we were just blown away by the folks... matching names to faces at the open mic at the Sellers Markets. Great white pizza too. But I was fried from travel and needed recovery time.

Friday, I managed to get to one music track...had to check out Gwampa as part of the expert panel on creating the best venues. I learned some things but I think that for the novice it would have not been that useful. There was a high level of tech know-how in the room. Saturday night I found the jam that was supposed to happen in room 1121, but was forced to leave due to sound level complaints. They found a home in the domed lobby. Really interesting acoustics. Cool sim to jam. I sang a bit along with Pato, Rosedrop, Juel, and even Cyl stuck her head in on her PR rounds to sing a chorus or two. I noticed when we started to grow in number quite quickly and alot were singing, the hotel security came closer and looked a little anxious, we were in front of the hotel bar entrance, but they let us play without hassle. Some locals that heard the music came in from the street and enjoyed it. Interesting night!

Pepe is here now and we are planning to go to the big Musician party. Tickets can be bought at the door, we understand, for $20. That's about 5 thousand Lindon, ya'll. Just saying!

So off we go to the musician's ball as soon as my hair dries. :D Will i get to harmonize some more tonight? Please o please yes! No sleeping tonight dammit!
