getting paid to read tapeop and listen to music!

[dave watkins]

yep, while my title sounds like one of those internet scams, it's true! i've been working all week putting together a video design for a dance performance that opens next week, so hours of video editing equals hours of rendering, which has allowed me to catch up on issue 69, and then low and behold issue 70 shows up! so betwixt all the editing i'm reading away and listening to some great music. triumph! i've got Sonny Rollins Saxophone Colossus on right now and have been also listening to a ton of Daptone records stuff to keep me going and my spirits high. so even though this will end up being an exhausting 80 hour week by the time all is said and done tomorrow... life is pretty swell.

thanks for continuing to publish such a massively amazing magazine. it's keeping me sane, all the while keeping me thinking about ever so slightly insane things to do with mics and instruments and the like once im done with the task at hand.

cheers,
