Hot Air in Albany

I had heard all about the law enforcement officers around here...especially regarding drunk driving, and speeding, which seems to not be tolerated around these here parts. But I wasn't prepared to see a parking violation on my windshield this morning, after leaving my truck for a loooong time in a 30-minute zone in Salem. It was only $15, but the ribbing from my bandmates will keep me much more vigilant in the future.

Today's gig was nice, made so by another sound engineer wizard, the kind of dude who knows his sh*t. We played an hour set at the Wah Chang Art and Air festival in Albany. The air portion includes a number of colorful hot air balloons that set out each morning (we missed that part.) Dinner after the gig consisted of some grand pub grub from Mcmenamin's in Corvallis--recommended!

Gotta get to bed now--tomorrow's gig, the last of the tour, begins at 12:30 PM in Bend. Time to catch some Zs. Bona noche! --Stu
