The owner of the motorcycle forum I go to throttlejockey.co.uk has turned me on to this very cool photo processing site/software. Photosynth.com It takes several photos of the same thing (different views) and merges them together for a kind of virtual tour. Check out this one I did of my bus.. http://photosynth.net/view.aspx?cid=e969b841-ab01-4209-8a90-00d77df29e79 You will need to install the software to view it, but this is very cool software... . |

Unfortunately, we're not cool enough to run on your OS yet. We really wish we had a version of Photosynth that worked cross platform, but for now it only runs on Windows. Trust us, as soon as we have a Mac version ready, it will be up and available on our site. As always, a day late and a dollar short...... |

I'll be around the normal places. Work (M-F 8am -5pm), Gigs (Mon-Tue-Wed-Fri-Sat), Home the rest of the time..... I guess now is as good as time as any to let people know our bus is in the shop being painted... (as of this last Sunday) We pulled in a few favors and managed to get it done labor free. The painter (cousin to our bass player) is optimistic about having it done in about 2 weeks. I'm going through withdrawls right now having to revert back to using my trailer to haul the gear to the gigs. . |

Mel, Yea, all the luck [cough] Monday night I get 5 hrs of sleep Tuesday night I get 2 hrs of sleep Wednesday night I get 4 hrs of sleep Thursday night I finally get a full 8 hrs sleep Friday night I get 7 hrs of sleep Saturday I get a 2 hr nap in the afternoon and then 5 hrs at night Sunday I again try to get a nap and then another 8 hr full nights sleep Somewhere in between I manage to clean and maintain the bus, gear, myself and my dog. Out with the ladies??? More like hauling gear in, setting up, keeping drunks from spilling drinks on the gear, hearing yet another request for "Free-bird", "Sweet Home Alabama", or "Curtis Lowe", packing up the gear, hauling it out, and finally driving home to collapse into bed only to wake up again in a few hours. Yup, it is a glamorous nightlife... It does have it's moments, showing off the bus is one of my favorites. And I do get to meet a few ladies (and their boyfriends/husbands). . |
