Road Rally 2011

Here I am.. About to start day 3 of the rally. Yesterday alone we (Bros. Clem) learned more than I could have imagined. 2010 when we came we were flies on the wall. Observing a lot and taking everything in. We found a TON that we both agreed we would try in 2011. And wow.. Absolutely grateful that we were able to return. This time we’re actually getting involved! Doing sessions that have real one on one interactions with people that do what we do…on the level we’d like to do it! Learned a LOT about ourselves and exactly where we are on the production side. Also found out some steps that need to be taken to get exactly where we need to be! If you’re a musician, you need to be here next year!

Anyhow.. Time to get up and shower! Gonna catch a LIVE scoring of a future CSI episode! Talk soon……

A lefty.

I decided for International Lefthanders Day, I’m gonna tell a story.

That’s right!  I’m a lefty..  I use this thing to eat, write, slap people, etc..  According to Wikipedia, I’m part of only seven to ten percent of the WORLD’S population!  Gnarly!  But was I born like this??  Apparently NOT!!

My dad told me that when I was a baby and he would hand me something, he would only let me grab it with my left hand.  And if I wanted to hand him something, he would only accept it if I was handing it to him with my left hand.  It became more dominant and that’s what I primarily use today.

You see, my dad is a lefty as well.  I’ve seen him eat with his left hand.  I’ve seen him write with his left hand.  And I can personally promise you that he slaps people with that left hand!  Boy does he ever..  He might not have a long list of unfortunate souls in his “People I’ve Slapped” book.  But he has at least four.  Myself.  My brother.  My sister.  And myself.

Why am I listed twice?  Let’s just say when I was younger I had a smart mouth and used to make a lot of faces at people.  I never really had a filter as to who those people were.  My parents might tell me to do something.  And of course this was interrupting MY day!  LOL!  So yeah I would get up and go do it.  But talking under my breath and making faces the whole time!  When/if I got caught…the right side of my face would then be ignited by the palm of my dad’s left hand.  The worst part about all of this is he could use his right as well!

Anyhow…It’s International Lefthanders Day!  And I’m a lefty.  Thanks Dad!

This is my lefty watch!  Notice the crown is on the left side of the watch?  We lefthanders typically wear watches on our right wrist.  With a regular watch (crown and buttons on the right) this makes it pretty inconvenient if we want to adjust the time or date while still having the watch on.  This is just one example of how lefthanders have to adjust to the right-hander’s world!  Grr!!!

Curtains..

The Undertone!

 Unfortunately we had to wrap things up with The Undertone.. :(   Sucks, I know!  But I can assure you we ALL are still very much in the music world.  It won’t be long til you hear of a new project or two I’m sure!

Goodbye, The Undertone.  Some of the best memories ever…
