A Lazy But, Productive Day...

Today has been very slow and dull. I've been ill all day so I haven't been very active. I haven't been out at all. Hardly moved! I've been sat on the Internet all day so, my eyes are feeling quite tired at the moment. I do believe however, that I have been in some way productive today. Not only have I finally sorted out this blog good and proper.

 I have started to create a small website. It's a free one provided by Wix but, it's looking fantastic and I can't really afford domain prices! It will have collections of my music and photography so that it seems everything is in the same place.

I can't wait to launch the website! There is no doubt that I will post about this again before it is published. It just needs a few more finishing touches and then it will be ready. I really hope I don't forget about this, as it will be a great way to showcase all of my work.

Here is a screen cap:















Let me know what you think.

Keeping Track

This weekend has been quite a busy one, starting from Friday. Three days of being constantly motivated is something I'm not used too.

Friday opened with an lunchtime practise/recording session hosted by myself with a friend that I will be working with closely more frequently from now on (All will be revealed!). The recording session was great to as that recorded everything with a fairly low input than what I wanted too. The recording also ended up being a one track because for some reason we couldn't listen to playback whilst recording ut, it would play back normally. Strange machine!

For the recording session I used my SoundCraft Compact4 mixer and a fairly old Toshiba laptop. We both agreed that overall the session went quite well and so far we have had nothing but positive feedback.

Saturday consisted on nothing but shopping in the nearby city centres, wandering around Westfield then later trotting around Victoria centre and Broadmarsh. It was a little unusual catching the bus with my dad, he usually takes the car. I gained two new shirts that day and a few other bits and pieces.

Sunday was a little strange, I was meant to be helping mother make sunday dinner though, I got up too late. Apparently, 12:00 is not acceptable so instead we ate out at a place called The Festival Inn, a place not too far from where we live. They didn't have any noodles which has slowly became my usual so instead of that I had 'New York Chicken'. Delicious!

After this and a few shops later, I was out with a friend with a couple of cameras... This was the result:
