Is that the one where Rupert Neve signed the mixing console? took me forever to figure out who it was. The whole time being "what idiot sharpied the mixing console?" Oh! The guy who made it. Cool!

It might be, it's a Neve in this room. It's their big room and Sinatra used it all the time. I've not taken a close look at the console, I'm sitting at the producer's table for all of these sessions.

holy boy I just met the guy who, along with his brother would like to rent our room. He is beautiful and his brother competes in mixed martial arts. I think I may swoon.

Guess I was nosier than you. It certainly was a thrill. Studio B was cool too. Oooo the mic's they have!!!

We've got a lot of folks in this control room right now and we are really pressing to get through takes so there's not much time to look around.

I took a quick scan and didn't see a signature. Where on the console would it be? This is a big 60 channel beast.

ND, any chance you might get a dinner break tonight? I'm packing up to come home and would love to see you.

You know what's pathetic? Not having the energy to walk over to the fridge to get my piece of Cheesecake Factory White Chocolate Raspberry Truffle cheesecake.

I think we do have a dinner break, but I'm not sure exactly when.

Hey, ND, I found out this past weekend my brother and his wife are expecting their first child. The baby is due in mid September, of course this is the same time his dissertation is due. Looks like they will be staying in Edinburgh for 3-4 additional months.

John becoming a dad is making me feel a little old! I'm also a little jealous they get to stay in Edinburgh for extra time (and my niece or nephew will be born in Scotland...the motherland!)

Wow. Hard to believe he's going to be a Dad. I still picture him as being around 10 years old.

I still picture him as being around 10 years old.

yeah, thought you'd be blown away! If it helps, I still see him as a squirrely pest sometimes, too.
