Jews are cool

25 April 2010

Recorded two bands on blues stage, took charge, and left my assistant there to wrap up when done after I got it set up and rollin cuz I had to get to lagniappe to tour manage and take care of informing sound guys of how they roll. More on that later. Back to enjoying the n.o. klezmer all stars before heading home. Yes, home.

Born on the Bayou

Dash is on stage right now. Bryan batt from mad men was here. Women are using the men’s room. Rose is actually here. And I wanna take a nap on the pew.

Day 2 Update

24 April 2010

Recorded the first and last three acts on blues stage. stopped by acura before day started to see chrissy, new daron, reuben, and dwight. Pretty confusing crap at the recordings, but nothin we couldn’t figure out. It rained for a short bit before fest opened, but that was about it. Because I brought an extra pair of shoes and a poncho.

Did get to spend a lil time with rose, and she picked up my per diem money. 🙂 I made my food choice based on how muddy the food areas were.

Don’t remember if I mentioned, but chopper and former cm darin are on this stage, as are, today anyway, wwoz. Thankfully I’ve worked with them before and they were a huge help with the stage clusterfs.

Better go pay attention now…

Day 2

24 April 2010

Just started raining pretty hard. Supposedly the last day of this crap. More prepared today. Poncho, additional shoes. I’ll pretty much be workin the blues stage all day. But at least I have someone with me, so maybe I’ll be able to get away for a bit.

Quote of the day, and I’m surprised I’ve never heard it before: “Give me some riblets! Give me some riblets!” Say while air-drumming.

God got mad at me

24 April 2010

And he said let there be rain. Not just Friday, but Saturday too. But as a consolation prize, let jeff be more prepared tomorrow.

And God said, “Let there be fest!”

23 April 2010

Here we go! I’m the first person in the tent. Heh. And I thought I was gonna be late. Here’s a couple of pictures. The cleanest and least crowded the Acura Stage and JFL tent will be all weekend. Hm. Error posting pix. Will have to work on that.
