Pic For The Day - Bob on ProTools

Last year this time I was sitting in a parking lot cutting ADR while I waited to record Christian Slater. Now I'm sitting at a kitchen table in Scotland editing bagpipes on that same ProTools rig.

Antfield House B&B

We want to go back to Inverness, mostly to stay again at the Antfield House B&B. It's such a cool place, and the innkeepers are terrific.

Happy Anniversary To Us

Today is our anniversary. Sixteen years. We're taking the day off. Tonight for dinner we will hand the kids a cell phone, and walk across the lawn to have dinner SANS CHILDREN at the restaurant you see out our window here. Do they have good food? We have no idea, but we will be SANS CHILDREN, and so it will all taste better.

Got more coffee in the cup, and not ready to get up out of the chair? Go click on our Best Of over on the left. Back when we were funny.

Celtic Connections + Brenna = :)

Celtic Connections. It's "Scotland's Premier Winter Music Festival". It's in January. It's in Glasgow, and I'll be in Edinburgh. How lucky can one girl get!

I've already bought tickets to a few shows: Imelda May, Carolina Chocolate Drops, Blueflint, and the Transatlantic Sessions.

If anybody knows somebody else I shouldn't miss let me know. I'll be in my room, picking out my party dress.
