I got a huge session this week/weekend with a tight deadline, but I'm hoping to wrap things up in time to meet up with you guys. Maybe we could meet up at Liquid Audio?
HAHAHA
Yeah let me know what your time table is looking like and we'll see if we can make something happen.

Holy crap that's entertaining! I need to get to a MMRS someday, for the drink if nothing else. On another note, I'm a bit disappointed in the Glenmorangie I bought. Thought I'd give them another chance, but I think it's their last.

...but I did have a lovely Lagavulin 16 on New Years. I just can't stand paying bar prices for Scotch, so it's pretty rare except for special occasions. I was really disappointed I missed the whiskey festival here in Fredericton this year though.

I'll go with you and split the expenses. I think it would be well worth the trip.
BTW there's no "e" in whisky apparently.

Yeah I know, but that's the spell checker. Whiskey is actually the Irish/American spelling, while Whisky is British/Scotch. If you look at a bottle of Jamesons it has an e.

I bought a bottle at duty free on the way home. Just a relatively inexpensive bottle of Hennessy, but it's quite tasty.

Jon Goud's in town for a session this weekend... I wish you weren't busy, we'd be drinking.

No, he quit music. He's working at a laser tag place and hasn't picked up his bass in a while. This session is to try to get him back into it a bit. I'm gonna show him all the cool music he has played on in the past 2 years that hasn't been released yet (that should help too...) Which is why I think scotch is in order!

Nope... I went through the same thing in 2002-2003. He was actually the reason I got back into music in 2003. He's going through the same kind of episode, he'll come around though.

So first scotch/cigar on the patio on the year. Absolutely stunning. This Bruichladdich is unbelievable. Easily the best scotch I've ever tried under $75. Probably under $100.

Can't complain. Not very often I get to just lay around and have a drink. Wife's in Toronto for a girls/spa weekend. This is my idea of a "spa" weekend.
