May The Stars Light Your Way
Linford and Karin holding the Tribute CD during their visit to our radio program. An update on WHAT IT TAKES TO PLEASE YOU, the tribute to Over The Rhine is in order. It’s been some time since we slid past our projected release date of…
This evening, I updated the site with a new version (1.8.3) of Andromeda, the MP3-jukebox. If you haven’t yet check out Andromeda on this site, you really should take a moment to explore Andromeda. It’s very feature-rich, and ours is a particularly nice implementation (if…
Tickets to the annual Over The Rhine Christmas show go on sale Saturday, November 10, 2001 at 10:00am on TicketMaster.
The annual Christmas show takes place at the Taft Theatre in Cincinnati, and represents a ‘homecoming’ of sorts for this Cincinnati-based band and their fans. This year’s show will be Friday, December 7 2001.
If you make it to the show, make sure you stop by and say Hello. We’ll be in the Orchestra Pit!
Another look at what’s going on in Drew’s life… Some new projects and more! Boy oh boy… Was I ever wrong when I predicted that the final coat of paint in the kitchen would be done Thursday or Friday! I painted two coats in the…
I thought I would upgrade the system software today using the tools that were provided by my software manufacturer. Using their tools, I logged into the update site, downloaded about 20 megs of updates (after several false starts because the update system was busy), and…
I wanted to take a few moments to update you on what’s going on in my life.
We’ve moved into our new house and, on Sunday October 28, turned the keys to the condo back in to the management office — we’re totally in the new house and no longer splitting time between the condo and the house. It feels really nice to have all our stuff in one place, even if a fair amount of it is still in boxes (or put away somewhere we’ve forgotten!). An interesting aside: We’ve misplaced our mortgage payment book! Yikes!
We’ve got one more room to finish and then we’re done with the remodelling projects. This evening, I will go home and ‘prime’ the walls in our kitchen to seal them and prepare them for final painting. The drywall in the kitchen was in pretty bad shape after the wallpaper was removed, so we had to have the walls ‘re-mudded’ — another layer of plaster applied over the old drywall to smooth it out. That process generated a TREMENDOUS amount of dust, so we’ve got some cleaning to do, too! Priming tonight, maybe another coat of primer tomorrow evening, and then painting the final color on Thursday and Friday, cleanup, and then we’re done!
Other than that, last weekend, I was on the set of the movie I’m working in. It’s called CALLBACK and is an independent movie being produced by NickelJar Productions out of Xenia Ohio. It’s rather a low budget project, but we’re having fun and enjoying the work of putting this film together. I’ll have more information, and maybe even production stills, for you soon. I’ll be on set next weekend as well.
An ongoing annoyance is the completion of the Over The Rhine Tribute CD. I’ve turned the project over and it seems to have stalled. I hate the fact that so many people have pre-ordered the project (thanks!), and that we’re getting further and further from our ‘release date’. It’s out of my hands… All I can do is apologize.
So, there you go. An update on what’s been going on in my life these past couple-two-three weeks.
Some major changes have taken place behind the scenes here at DrewVogel.COM. We’ve migrated the system from PHP-Nuke to PostNuke. There might be some small problems here and there, but for the most part, the system is running really well. If you spot anything strange,…
