It became clear to me today that I lost almost everything when my iMac hard drive died last week.
I both can’t stand and can’t help continually remembering and imagining all the songs, poems, journal entries, photos, and myriad documents that I had created and collected over the last three years. I have a few backups from over a year ago, but mostly I seem to have lost all the recordings I’ve made in the last two years. I am an idiot.
And so I start from scratch, again, and am glad to be focused on what I need to record, un-distracted by all the old stuff I had. And I am so glad for having made this site my archive; it’s safe from my unstable systems. And now I have a fresh terabyte, which I was amazed to get for $150 at BestBuy. Time to fill it up with a new album.
dude, that sucks! total tragedy. and you have such a positive attitude about it.
looks like a lot has happened since my visit just a couple weeks ago. i can’t stand being all the way over in dc! was great seeing you guys…hope to make it happen again soon.
