I should prolly be sleeping now, but seems as I'm stuck in 'on' mode. Tried sitting back in the quiet room for a bit, but even that's a bit noisy with people trying to escape the dinner crowd.
The fire that some people might have heard about was last night - nothing to do with us. Happened during a basketball game, not our load in. Just a short most likely from dust on the underside of a beam in a junction box. Not confetti related as I'd heard rumour of. Not on the 'traditional' scoreboard either - it was a mobile vid screen. Everything is intact and functional and it was not as bad as it was made out to be.
Yes, sadly Bruce Kapp, VP of LiveNation has passed on. He was a longtime friend and associate of many managers, including some out here with us, and our condolences go out to his many, many friends in our business.
Tomorrow should prove interesting. Day off in Las Vegas. Every year this happens, and every year things go badly. You'd figure the booking agents and management would learn not to give us a day off in Vegas after last year. Thankfully, I don't gamble and that scene doesn't interest me in the least, but I know a lot of the brothas will be out doing both wild and crazy things. At least the day off is on ante side as opposed to the post side of the gig. Less people likely to be oil spotted or arrested.
Cold and windy today to hot and prolly sunny tomorrow. Sounds like not a good combo for those still with vestiges of the crunk. Mayhap the sun will dry everyone up.
Really need to find a way to dump the images on my camera. Too cheap to buy another card and too absent minded to bring it with me into the venue. Don't feel like running out and getting it. Looks like rain, but hahahaha, that's what it's famous for up this way isn't it? The exhaustion will feel good in a few days, just gotta make it over the hump. Almost ready for a coffee. Almost. Yuck.
