Another tour with the Push Stars finished. The last couple of shows went well, even had the pleasure of mixing on a Heritage 3000 for the last gig at Northeastern college. (Why is everybody at Scorpio so grumpy all the time?) I wont be working with the band on their upcoming west coast tour, but I wish them the best of luck.

It’s good to be home again, especially good to be hooked back up to the DSL line. Average connection speed on the road with Earthlink was 28K, with a couple of connections at 46k or higher, but that was rare.

My Filemaker Pro “Tour Itinerary” database is almost ready for posting. I’m not sure I’ve got the space on this web site to post it for download, but it looks like I will have it available for free download from Fact42. I’ll post in the news here when it’s available.

Not sure what is going on in the month of June here, got the dingy clubs in San Francisco calling me for work again, but after touring through the dirty clubs of the US I am not really into working as a house engineer at one. But ya do what ya have to.

Almost done with the Push Stars tour

Almost done with the Push Stars tour. Things have been going well. We are traveling back up north now after shows down south. Weather has been perfect everywhere, I think we skipped spring and went right to summer. I’m sure it will be back to cold and windy when I return to San Francisco.

It’s been one of those tours where you wonder why nobody takes care of the sound equipment in the club. Gear is dirty and uncared for. Does anyone care about quality anymore? Not that everyone can afford the best gear, but what ever you can afford, you’d think you would make sure it was kept in as good a condition as it could. That, and do any gas stations out there still put soap in the squeegee holder?
