STUDIO DIARY #30 (January 15th - 18th, 2001)
Monday 15th of Jan
So Christmas is over and the new year has passed and we're all together again at Smart Studios on our first day back and oh my.....is it not Duke's birthday!!!
And he's all chuffed because we bought him a pair of incredible BMW Nautilus 805 Speakers which is in sharp contrast to the rather paltry pokeman beer coozie that we gave him last year.
Anyway......new year's resolutions? Nah.Didn't bother to make any.If I am that hell bent on change I can do it at any time of the year I fancy. Oh and by the way..........in answer to charges made against me by various anonymous parties that this diary is self indulgent:
DAMN STRAIGHT IT'S SELF INDULGENT!!!!!
That is the very nature of a diary. Especially one which is written for OUR fans on a web site that WE bought and paid for.And if you have a problem with that then simply don't read it for pity's sake because I am not going to stop.
Tuesday 16th
A yucky post birthday celebration-hangover coupled with an early morning pilates class.
Trust me.That is a BAD combination.
Currently trying to decide which fate would be preferable..........continuing on working here at the studio whilst feeling like this or death by hanging. That said,we have managed to write a new song called "Androgyny" today so at least we have begun the new year on a positive and creative note!!!! WheeeeHoo
Wednesday 17th
Oh I nearly forgot.......Was anyone fortunate enough to catch Stephen Jenkin's rather embarassing and ill-advised behaviour whilst performing with Run D/MC at half time during the Oakland Raiders game last sunday?!?!??! Lord! What on EARTH was he thinking?!?!?!?!??!!
I swear I didn't know it was him at first and I kept yelling at the boys at the top of my voice;
"WHO IS THAT WHITE GUY? WHO ON EARTH IS THAT IDIOTIC WHITE GUY WITH THE CANE AND THE BAD 1980'S BEASTIE BOY COSTUME?"
And then Steve quietly said with a wee smirk on his face;
"IT'S STEVEN JENKINS."
And we all whooped for joy.
Thursday 18th
I have done something incredibly sinister to my back.It hurts like crazy and I can barely move an inch and I'm hobbling about like Rip Van Winkle.How truly PATHETIC I am.
Consequently I am an absolute grouch of the highest order which in turn has driven me to rash and somewhat destructive behaviour.
I've taken the sissors to my fabulous new haircut in the hope of making a few minor improvements and of course I've completely ruined it.In a similar drive to make a minor adjustment to my spanking new leather Katyone Adeli coat,I've completely cut off the cuffs.
Oh woopsie.
We're still working on "Androgyny" today.Duke's recording some guitar parts using the good old POD and they're sounding quite marvellous.Which reminds me......I'd better go practise.
Bye for now.
