I just finished building a studio outside NYC where I will be living for the next month or so. When I say “build”, I effectively mean moving my computer from Maryland to New York. But same difference. Anyway the plan is to write, record, and take singing lessons in the city.. should be a pretty great summer.
I was wondering yesterday about taxi cabs. First of all, where do they all park? Is there some massive taxi cab lot like those ones I always see for school buses? I’m sure there must be, but I’ve never seen it. Perhaps underground, yes that must be. Also, where do they refuel, and when? I have never seen a taxi cab fill up its gas tank. I also am pretty sure there are no gas meters in the cabs. Perhaps they refuel wirelessly? I wonder how hard it would be to buy a yellow car, paint it like a taxi, and make money driving people around the city. I would predict it would take about 2 weeks before you were found out. (and subsequently arrested.. maybe even condemned.)
I wonder how the ‘random word combination’ album title thing got started. Here are some examples: “Blood Sugar Sex Magic”, “Love Angel Music Baby”, “Future Sex Love Sounds”. Only one of those makes potential sense, and they all sound pretty nuts. (read: awesome) I really want to call my album something along these lines, but I fear I would be labeled a copy cat. However, when Gwen Stefani went with the ‘Love Angel Music Baby’ title, the Red Hot Chilli Peppers didn’t go all up in arms, so maybe it would be fine. It seems that as long as the words are different (or at least in a different order) I would be safe…
I love taking up a new interest because it opens up a whole new section to me at the magazine stand. For example, recently I have gotten really into design, which happens to have a massive amount of periodicals dedicated to it. So now, when I go to the bookstore I can look for music, design, style, and computer magazines! 4 wonderful options. I almost want to take up photography just so I’ll have another section to peruse. This comes especially in handy at the airport, where you never know which sections are going to be present.
