"'especially'…….
A journey to Germany, Bulgaria and ….. wait for it ….. Iceland!!"
Day 1
Seat 2A on an
Airbus 320 is usually a great seat…. especially on Air Berlin, the only problem
is that this flight was filled with two-legged junior noisemakers who insisted
on practising!
And why oh why
do mothers with new babies (and all the paraphernalia that goes with them!) have
to be busy all the time, jumping up and down, fetching this and that, pressing
the call button endlessly expecting special treatment and all the while being
watchful to see that everyone was observing what an especially good mother she
was being?
(I bet my mum
wasn´t like that! My mum never even went on a plane… ever!)
Why don´t they
just go by bus?
As is usual
with this airline, we landed right on time and I was whisked away to the hotel
Arco which wasn´t bad. I mean the hotel wasn´t bad, not being whisked away…..
I went
straight to meet with everyone at Membran to discuss plans for the new CD, and I
especially wanted to talk about marketing and promotion. I was able to share a
little music that Dani and I had prepared, almost finished tracks and the video
for ¨(This) Bleeding Heart¨ that Igor Burloff directed in St. Petersburg.
I have some
strong feelings about how to position the new CD (and me along with it!) and I
think we are all agreed on the need for a shift in focus and the exciting
possibilities this opens up.
We are
thinking about a release date in the little window that traditionally opens up
in early November and I will share more of this planning with you as we get
closer to the release date.
These were
good meetings and I went back to the hotel feeling especially encouraged.
Eric called
and we made plans to meet for dinner which ended up happening, though more by
accident.
Dear Eric,
he can be such a calamity!
