Well, not literally, but to be able to work legitimately, in this country (U.S.), I must go home (CAN) and get the proper paperwork filled out, signed and, most importantly to this archaic system, paid for. If they would only trim the fat off of the management of world governments there would be no need to travel back home to pay for such pieces of paper. With this lot of old-timers a 'paperless society' still seems a generation off. I'll stop here, on this issue of government waste, or I'll prove my Blog Title a misnomer.
Erin Alden Meeting
Today is Friday. I'm having tea at my local (lol, I have a "local" in about 20 countries...love it!), waiting for the talented Erin Alden to join me for an afternoon of lunch and brain-storming - "what project can we work together and what would that partnership look like"?
Erin, like me, works with other artists to improve their work - recordings mostly - whereas I am a Live Performance Improvement Specialist. We both write/arrange/produce and tweak artists in each other's area of expertise so keeping off of one another's toes long enough to create something fun is imperative. Erin is working with S. Africa's Shaun V., brought to her by the lovely, British producer, Lizard - he's a real piece. I've yet to meet him in person, only online, as it has been with Erin until today...
We met at The Omelette Parlour, on Main, in Venice. She is fabulously beautiful with the most killer blue eyes... and smart. We ate, became part of the Mutual Admiration Society - chatting about how wonderful the other's work was - and walked the beach to the Santa Monica Pier out into the Promenade. We talked for hours, discussing our projects and the new-music-industry as it pertains to our Internet marketing and social networking. We got caught in a downpour on the walk back to Venice, and laughed all the way through it. This was my kind of meeting!!!
