Mount Juliet.

Mozart. Mozart. Adam's music for flute brings sunshine to an otherwise grey morning over Mount Juliet.

Ian, Jakko & C21SB management have acted to address deceptive advertising for the Band in Europe. They are apologetic, although no blame attaches to them. An e-mail to Ian just off --

dear ian,

if i change my name to ian, can i join your band, please?

Dribble dribble. Hooray hooray!

A good day's rehearsal. We are coming together, but my head is singing. Hence the dribbling. And my Happy Gigsters' Travel Pro Wheelie arrived at Chez Belew 15 minutes before me, 5 days late, and after I spent $600 this morning replacing bag & contents, and $70 yesterday. But, I am a Happy Gigster once again. Hence the hooraying.

During Level Five today - the intelligence or identity of the piece was with us in the room as we played it. I have experienced this several times before with L5. It has a strong sense of itself.

Information on the European tour is not yet complete, although more was waiting for me this evening on AOL. My sense of the proposed tour has moved from dread, to terror, and is now hovering around fear. Let's see what tomorrow brings.
