Argh - got some great news and some frustrating news.
On one front, the string of non-bookings is broken; I've got two upcoming shows, a week (and a continent!) apart. I've been booked for Soundproof's "Trancemission 9", for the third year in a row, which is an honour and a privilege - this is an annual free party out at Mile36 that just epitomizes the whole BC outdoor rave experience... it's the same night as the Burning Man party again this year, which means a great, diverse party crowd. I wouldn't consider missing this party.
A week after that I'm off to New Brunswick, via Nova Scotia, to visit my folks. My friend Malte in Halifax has booked me for some sort of Friday night gig, about which I know very little. My last gig in Halifax went splendidly though, so I'm really looking forward to it. It won't be much of a vacation, though, as pretty much the whole thing will be running around like mad trying to visit all the folks we need to see.
The frustrating news is that the work on the "ultimate rackmount livepa computer" project is halted while I wait for the motherboard to arrive - apparently it will come into stock on July 19th. *sigh*. The Trancemission show is on July 22nd, nowhere near enough time to assemble and test the gear.
