Drop Concert: The Motion Picture: The Soundtrack

Happy hump day! As a loyal patron of course you’re familiar with the infamous Drop Concert films?! Yes? No? Maybe? Anyway we’re finally dropping them on the public at large tomorrow with a double feature starting at 10am PT. (We’ll drop it here on Patreon embeds too so you can join the fracas in the chat.)

BUT we’re also dropping the audio for both on your feed here and on the RSS. So dig into DC1 and stand by for DC2 in the next post.

Toronto Livin' Again

Good morning everyone, back to my regular Saturday posts after a couple of wild weekends!

Sitting up here in Toronto on Day 3 of sitting around. I got up here Tuesday morning after the red eye, went in for a fitting later in the day - had nothing but office hours on Wednesday, and then didn't shoot until around 11 pm on Thursday. So... I'm getting a little antsy!

Thursday night's scene had me playing some squash so I went in early to the racquet club to meet with Paul and some...

TimFest Was A TOTAL Success

Good morning everyone, back with another post-weekend report for you: 

Wow! What a goddamn treat this weekend was! 

Last summer on the bus we were talking about doing something with the band that wasn't a tour, but a residency or some longer stay... and over time that evolved into my dream weekend of all my world colliding and combining into a fun little festival. And after getting nearly everyone on board (our drummer Josh would not be able to commit, due to his Cat Pow...

Joanna!

Hey folks that was a fun show! Yes we miss Doug like hell but somehow we carry on. He’ll be back next week!

Last night I took Millie to see Joanna at the Barnsdall Theater. She was so excited, as I played her a bit of Joanna and she was really into it. And really excited to go out to a concert and stay up late.

The little theater, atop a hill in Los Feliz was really great, if not a little formal… Kevin Morby, who we immediately ran into said “I feel like I’m here to vote!�...

Friday Night Was INSANE

Hey gang - hope you're having a wonderful weekend. Still riding high off that show with Maria and Scott on Thursday. That was really fun!  It's been nice being home for a bit and taking it a little easy, picking up the kids from school and hanging with them. Funny kids! 

Last night, we went out for some sushi down the road, and on the way back, Marilyn had to drop off something to another parent - They were the parents of Charlie's best pal at the school, so Charlie and Marily...

Doug's Tour Diary Day 1: Melbourne

The direct flight from LA to Melbourne was 15 1/2 hours! I played tennis during the day hoping to feel tired and sleep during the night flight but not much luck. I grabbed a few 30 minute naps but was pretty awake the whole time. I came prepared, I had podcasts, games and tv shows downloaded on my phone and books on my kindle. For some reason, I'm not much of a movie watcher on planes but after several hours, I caved and ended watching 4 movies back to back. The first was Primal Fear, a 1996 ...

Top O' The Mornin To Ya

Hello from Dublin! What a whirlwind it's been since Thursday. 

The last time we spoke, I was looking down on some snowy streets on Thursday afternoon.  I packed up and went down around 3:45 to catch my ride to the airport for a 7:30 pm flight to Dublin.  I asked to be picked up a tad earlier as I had an important phone call at 6 pm and wanted to be through security in time to find a quiet enough place... So, I get in the car (a very high-strung driver from the production....

Getting It Together

Good day, my friends! I'm 2 weeks into my Toronto time and haven't been up the big tower once. I think I'm going to fix that today.  

I'm settling into a nice routine here, mostly due to so much free time. I worked Tuesday and Friday this week... next week will be busier, but this past week was pretty, as they say, KUSH...  even on my work days my pickup times have been noonish. So I've been getting up early, going down to the gym, working out of the Peloton, and then back in ...
