Wow the past six months have been something for me. It feels good to once more have time to post on these boards. The last few months have drained me dry, four hours of sleep a night was catching up so I had to let something go, this was high on that list. After that I average four and a half hours of sleep, now I feel a bit more refreshed.
it's good to see a solid core in this place to hold it together. Better yet, let me take this time out to thank you all for keeping this thing around, some times guys like me take it all for granted, but when we step away and look at a place like this from the outside in you tend to realize how much you really like doing this.
Any way I just got back from a very interesting trip representing the Grammys. I met a few rappers that some of you might or might not have heard. Paul Wall, Mike "5000" Watts, and a few other cats.
Me and my cousin sat down and talk with those guys for a minute and exchanged numbers, they where in need of a some new engineers and told me they will check with me. They where more impressed by me and my 20 year old cousin not going crazy when we saw them. We basically sat down and talked shit to one another all day, while drinking.
Grammys where in Austin for the big music conference SXSW that happens every year, and they wanted to introduce Paul Wall as one of the only five rappers having a vote in the Grammys now.
Honestly that was not the highlight of the party, what was, at least for me is all the check writers running around. I handed out at least 20 business cards to a reporter from the L.A Chronicles, a few music producers, and representative of BMI (the people who collect artist money when your shit is played in public.)
Alot of them where laughing cause me and my cousin rolled up in a rented red mustang with the drop top and we where just cruising. They said we where in enjoying out selves to much.
Shit you feed me and talk money, why not enjoy it? Free Booze, nice looking women, college girls on the other side of the door, free food. FUCK IT!!! We are hanging like monkeys in the rain forest.
And to thin this comes on the heels of my teacher sending me a email saying I curse to much in my research papers and to tone down the smack talk. Old habits die hard.
Anyway, I just wanted to break a my silence on this board after some time. Say hello to you all.
One other thing... TO KEVIN.... AUSTIN IS NO LONGER 3HOURS and 24MINUTES!!!! It is now 2HOURS AND 45MINUTES!!! If you don't believe me, ask the 80 - 100mph mark on that Mustang.
