Hi guys, no clever subject

Well, where to I start? I've been working on building the studio. We've been soundproofing the walls with a compressed rubber material that's mainly used to line the walls inside an engine room on a boat. The stuff is really heavy, it comes in rolls that weigh about 300 pounds. We struggled all day Sunday getting that shit up on the walls. We're ( Read more... )

which was walls filled up with all T-shirts, what the fuck were we thinking?)
what??

Another man's junk is another man's treasure.
ain't it the truth??

from my group left so the remaining people got slammed with even more work.
---whenever work gets to me I watch 'Office Space'...

Why would someone cover a beautiful hardwood floor with white linoleum? stupid fucks.-
--the same type of people that would use wall paint on the hardwood floors.
I've seen too many apts. in NYC where they just can't stop painting the walls and they keep going! paint the floors, the windows and cabinets shut...i suppose they snorted the fumes too long...

Instead of using insulation, we stuffed the walls with old t-shirts. This was our "brilliant" cost cutting move. After that I started to call my partner John Crapino instead of his given name of John Arpino.

I'll like junky recording equipment, instead of using the same equipment that everyone uses, if you use some of this odd ball stuff you can add a little different flavor to your recordings.

I love Office Space, a lot of it rings true for me.

People have no taste, I can't believe they went over this floor. It's really nice, nice grain and detail, I can't wait to clean it up.

Good Morning!

Crapino
--as a friendly joke? sorry...wasn't sure if you still work w/him.
...It seem um...creative and if you had to use t-shirts....? Maybe you did it bc otherwise the job then wouldn't of gotten done? --'retrospective'...oh, so the t-shits caused many problems?

odd ball stuff
--I've read that ... I'm also fascinated with how bands will record in different types of buildings such as old Hollywood 1920s mansions.

I just have to think of 'Office Space' and I start to laugh...
He bought the dvd even though I have the video...I think I better go check if there are any special features or commentary on the dvd.

It will be exciting (well..I seem to get excited over interior design) when you can finally look at the room w/ the original flooring.
Are you and Cookie ( I just get a kick out of that nickname) going to be redecorating and renovation the whole house?

10 years!?! Where's my gold watch? I can't believe it, I can't. And you're so right about what a good egg I am. I need to check out crankyisgood. . . .

It sounds like everything is cooking for you in the studio and at home, and the good news about having that wood floor covered up is that it was protected all of those years. I bet it will be beautiful once you clean it up. That sucks about work. Just think, things will get better once Dania is in charge.

One more mistake and they'll make her CEO.

The little bit of the floor I managed to look at looks pretty good, you're right it was protected.

It's funny she's cranky and you're moody...
