I played a rather surreal wedding gig this Saturday night last. Gothic furniture, dope, fireworks, Pink Floyd and vagueness were the orders of the evening, but all to rather wonderful effect People were getting halfway through speeches, sort of tapering off, then wandering back to their seats.

Oh, and two little fluffy white dogs were just sort of wandering around. It was a bit like our place actually, only our dogs are a little bigger, and one of them is a different colour, and we don’t smoke dope, or conduct fireworks displays. We are occasionally vague though, so the comparison holds some water.

Behold the fearsome power

Oh, and we also don’t own a pair of armchairs that look like they’re out of Lewis Carrol.

Orf with his head! Oh, and get me a scotch. And another scotch. Make it a double.

I also installed Windows 7 x64 on the music PC Sunday, but it was all behaving rather flaky so I’ve reverted back to the old x86 flavour for the moment. Most things worked OK, but Pro Tools wouldn’t play ball, and I sort of need it for the odd file exchange. Seeing as I’m only running 2GB of RAM at the moment anyway, I didn’t really have much to gain from the switch, so I’m not too fussed right now. I’m sure Avid will release a 64 bit version just as we’re all transitioning to 128…

Oh, and I picked up Wusik V5.8.6, and EVE, so I’ve lots of new samples to play with. Fun and games.
