It’s late in the evening before Sons Of Nothing head out to Vail, Colorado for another show at the Sandbar. The last time we were there I patched the video into all 20-some televisions in the bar, nuked the lighting console configuration (and then restored it), and fell off a ladder on stage in what some called a “spectacular” fall.

It should be fun.

The Sandbar isn’t the ideal place for the band to do a show. For one, the stage is quite small. It’s in a corner of the room and the ceiling is low. As a result, our options for mounting the projector screen are quite limited. This isn’t such a big deal anymore since we can patch into all the televisions in the room in addition to the screen. That worked out well last time.

The Sandbar show is Thursday night. Then we have a day of rest before heading to Glenwood Springs to do a show at Eagles Club on Saturday. (I hope that doesn’t mean F.O.E. But if it does, it could be cool.

I’m looking forward to the drive as a chance to unwind and think. My days have been so tightly wound the last few weeks! I was just telling Christine today that I have had so little time between projects that I will zip through the drive-thru at Carls Jr. or Wendys after leaving one client site and try to stuff my face as quickly as I can before going to another client site. Not only does this mean I’m not eating healthy, but it also means I’m not eating healthily. In addition, I’m not enjoying my lunch and I’m not giving myself any kind of break between projects.

In the meantime, it looks like the Fedora project just released a boatload of updates to Fedora Core 3. I’m downloading those updates right now and loading up a few projects to work on while I’m gone. I’m really, really hoping we get some lodging with Internet access. If not, I’ll be using a modem. Ahhh, relivin’ the good ole days of 56k.
