Yesterday marked one one week from the day that I'll be departing Los Angeles to go on tour with Cirque du Soleil. Earlier in the month, I had planned out the projects that I wanted to finish before I left town. A friend of mine once told me, "If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans." God's doing the ol' ROFLMAO while he/she/it watches me scramble to finish up a book of church hymns (I just realized the irony here), help my friend finish the recording of his CD in my studio, compose/record/turn in 4 of the 10 music cues I'm writing for some television shows.
My wife's going to move out of our house within a month of me leaving town, so throw that into the mix too! (She'll be joining me for the 2nd leg of the tour from Aug-Dec in Brazil). I'll be breaking down my entire studio and packing up all my music "stuff." Ugh! Hmmm...Do I have enought to do yet?
I have a gig on Friday night, a wedding on Saturday, and would like to spend at least a little bit of time with my family since I won't be coming home until June, then leaving again from Aug-Dec. Whew!
I think I'll experience some relief when I'm on my way to Montreal to start rehearsals. Here's my schedule for those of you who are curious:
Montreal 3/27 - 4/7
Santiago 4/8 - 4/22
Buenos Aires 4/23 - 6/11
Sao Paulo 8/2 - 10/15
Rio de Janeiro 10/26 - 12/3
And for the even more curious, here are some of the above-mentioned music cues I composed (check out Ricky Z's funky guitar tracks on "Grand Torino") :
"Club Eclipse" 1:17
"Fast Cruiser" 1:52
"Black Light Jungle" 1:17
"Grand Torino" 1:17
