Earth + Wind + Fire


Today I'm a skip, a hop and a jump from Cresta Mall. I'm at an animation studio, writing and animating at the same time, thanks to some fucked up client who just woke up about a presentation they need to present in Geneva on Monday. Anyway, we hustle or we don't eat.

This coulda been a shitty day, but I've got good company; Earth, Wind and Fire. Right now I'm listening to a jam called I'll Write a Song For You. Google it. One of those mellow tunes. I look forward to listening to a favourite of mine; Side By Side - coming up next, says Itunes. Oh, yes, I was at The Dome when they came to perform, at the back of their Cape Town Jazz Festival.

My mind's racing. Too many things to think about. I guess the only time I'll get to truly relax is when I'm in NY in December. No connection to any mobile phone. No roaming. No SMSes, Twitter, Facebook, BBM, homing pigeons... NOTHING!
I look forward to hitting the club scene, live bands, tourist attractions, long walks and interesting beverages... Been talking about it for too long. I'm also hoping to see Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings in Brooklyn...

Will also try to see the ultimate performer: Prince. He's in Seattle, at the Nectar Lounge in December. Sting is also in Seattle at the same time, at the Paramount Theatre. If I get to see these two guys, I'll die a happy man. How am I going to afford it? Three letters: BMF. That's how.

Oh, now I'm listening to Luther Vandross - A house in not a home. A lovely track. Yeah, Luther did his thang and then left like that. Rest In Peace, Mr Vandross.

Ok, that was my break. Done. I'm going back to work. Then maybe I'll hit Melville for a Tanqueray and Tonic.

Laters,
S.
