Beware the Ides of March
Posted by Steven on Sat 2006-03-11 06:04:14 UTC #For someone who doesn't have perfect pitch, it's surprising how often I'll have a song going through my head (in this case, This Masquerade) and it turns out to be in the right key.
So, today is Friday... a day where I tend to do no homework and just relax, as it is the first day of my weekend. Though sometimes I go to the music building to practice, as I did today. I'm supposed to be able to sing three songs for which I'll be singing bass by tomorrow at 11:30am. I got these songs 11 days ago, I believe, and they're not easy songs. Hopefully I won't have too much trouble at the rehearsal, because I think we're performing them on Tuesday.
I played KotOR II over the the past couple weeks. It was good until the ending... but I guess that's to be expected when the publisher tries to rush game development. I'll probably play through it again if/when the restoration project is completed. Anyway, now Louis is offering to pay for EVE Online for me, so I'll probably play that. Of course, EVE's not a game where can just sit down and focus on it for long periods of time without doing anything else at the same time. You kind of have to multitask if you don't want to get too bored. (At least, that was the experience I got from the trial.) But still, it should be fun.
Oh, Epicenter went on a mini-tour last weekend. We performed in Bakersfield and Oxnard. I got to see my family in Bakersfield, which was nice. Though I think I liked the Oxnard performance better... I don't know if it sounded any better, but it felt better. And next weekend, we're going to the Royal High School Vocal Jazz Festival in Simi Valley (wow, a short drive to get to a jazz festival, amazing). The main attraction there will be Vocalogy, so that should be a good show.
Okay, I'm tired of writing now.

Sounds like a fun festival. Vocalogy's website looks intriguing. Hope you have a good time with them.
