If anyone has any digital photos (even just one!) of the Urban Tapestry concert or the Library Boy performance at Conchord, I would really, really love to get a copy. Many thanks. :-)




So my friend Rand came to visit yesterday afternoon. We had lunch at Queen Mother's Cafe, browsed Pages bookstore, then spent the rest of the afternoon working on some music for OVFF. While his music group and mine have performed together in the past, Rand and I have never purposely done any musical collabs before. It was a lot of fun; we'll have to do this more often.

In the evening, we went to visit with Allison and Jodi in Richmond Hill. Had dinner at Kelsey's, then hung out at Jodi's place afterwards.





By the time Rand and I got back to my place downtown, Jeff was back from his "Guys' Night Out" with friends (dinner at Hooters and seeing the movie XXX :-)). The two of them caught up a bit while I desperately tried not to fall asleep on my feet.

All in all, it was a pretty great day. :-)

For those of you who missed the news earlier, Rand and Adam have written the theme music for a new Disney television cartoon called "Fillmore", which debuts on Saturday, September 14th at 9 a.m.. You can see a video clip (and hear the theme music) by going to the Disney Online Fillmore preview page, clicking on "Video Clips", then clicking on "Theme Song" (choice of two file sizes).
