March 08

I've been RECORDING recording RECOrding for the past couple weeks, getting some music together for my demo cd. I'll have some advance copies when I come home. I'm playing at Easton's venerable AVALON theatre on March 19th. 6:30 pm. I'm flying back east on saturday, going up to Vermont with Uncle Chris, and coming back to easton for next week, my spring break.

Can't wait to see y'all maryland folk! L.A. is only tolerable because I've been playing loads of music...my songwriting class had a showcase at a local coffeehouse and it was really successful. let's pack the avalon!

love,
tien

Semester at Sea: Days 11-15

Day 11 (Friday Sept 5, 2008) Woke up to sounds of crew banging on doors and yelling. It’s Neptune Day. Which means: King Neptune has decided we must be initiated in order to cease our land loving ways and become true shellbacks. Which means: We go up to the pool deck, where the crew, dressed up in togas and aluminum foil helmets, spills mysterious rancid-smelling fish juice over our heads, one by one. For the willing, a head-shaving ritual, in which I participated. Brazil in two days. Day 12 (Saturday Sept 6, 2008) We will be arriving in Salvador tomorrow morning. I think I will be exploring with my roommate and his friends. I fear I have been a little antisocial the past few days, evidenced by lack of any established “crew”, but I guess I’ve been trying to avoid societal overload. Classes are going well. Really excited about the churrascurias (brazilian all you can eat barbecue)! Always a hit in the states, can’t wait to have the real thing. Had our pre-port meetings, lots of warnings...

Heard this gem at work today

Was trimming today and this came on the "radio". It's cumbia, but it might be fun to play it as a forro... Colombians have porro, Brazilians have forro.  Wonder what the history is?
