	MUSIC BIZ. Ok. Well. "[[~~MoG\|~~Mother of God]]" consists of Dave-whose-last-name-I-can-never-remember-though-I-have-it-written-down-somewhere on drums, Dan on bass and vocals, Tim on guitar and vocals, and myself on keys and vocals. Dan, Tim, and I write songs. We've played 2 gigs at a place called Club Fred, which was recently sold to be converted into something else; we had actually just decided not to play there anymore because they didn't advertise the shows very well. The first show we opened for a group called "Mr. Right Now", and the second time for "The Fuzzy Sprouts". We are now scheduled to play January 14 at Hoyt St. North (which is taking over the biz of introducing new bands from Club Fred) opening for Magister Ludi and Out of the Fire (the latter produced by Peter Buck, I think, of REM. Peter Buck is all over the place. Dan talked to him the other week, getting advice re studio recording and click-tracks).		MUSIC BIZ. Ok. Well.

	Dan has just purchased an 8-track analog reel deck (no, not the cartridge thingies from the 1970s...) and Tim owns a computer digital recording setup (I'm jealous but containing myself because the longer I wait to get one, the cheaper and better they will be). I may be purchasing a DAT deck for mastering and backup purposes. We're working on an album for release in the spring. Dan is also talking to people at a 64-track studio in town who may be willing to produce us on spec.

I don't mind helping out, but I really don't like having to do it on someone else's schedule (or feeling guilty otherwise).

I almost forgot to mention -- Livia and I found a copy of ''Birdie'' at the local Blockbuster video, and rented it forthwith. So now I've seen it.

I think we're about to head into work, so I'll finish this off now.

Cheers,
