Well i just got back from Vegas yesterday, and I have to say it lived up to its name of Sin City. THere was a lot going on, some of which I knew how to handle, and some of which I didn’t. But as what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas, i can at least say that i’ve come away from the experience with some wisdom. One thing for sure being never take a Red Eye flight on a saturday night out of Vegas! After being there a week, my body was actually shutting down. I had a swollen eyes even though I had not bumped them nor had anyone hit me. It was as if my body was physically closing my eyes for me since my mind refused to let it happen. My muscles hurt like i had run a marathon. I walked through the airport like a las vegas zombie. Staring down the new arrivals like the fresh meat they were. “you too will become one of us” i thought. All things considered…I SURVIVED! And yes, there will be some vegas songs that came of this trip. They are in their infancy now, but will grow into their adult versions over the next month or so I’m sure.
I now have two weeks before I take off again, to Pennsylvania, then to Baltimore, then to LA for two weeks. I may even end up in Vancouver at the end of all that, before getting back to Nashville sometime mid may. So its recovery time, and prep time once again. I’m listening to final mixes tonight of two new songs I will be releasing by the end of the week. If you aren’t on my mailing list yet, please go to the home page www.valhallaonline.com and sign up. I am going to be sending these songs to those people on the mailing list only. Otherwise they will be available for streaming on Myspace. But the mailing list will receive the downloadable versions.
I wrote this article while is Las Vegas about a company called Slot Music. They are trying to market the CD all over again, disguised as a micro SD chip. I interviewed some reps of this company after a stiff martini and a corona, and they still managed to make my blood boil.
So
is the fury I unleashed on them the next day, once I had regained my wits about me.
