ECMA Day 2-Continued

Okay, this morning we got up really early because we thought that we would have to start photographing really early.....but not so....we spent all morning and most of the afternoon waiting around for Grant to tell us what the hell we were supposed to be doing. Heather was so bored she said, and I quote, "If I had a gun right now, I'd shoot myself". I agreed. Plus someone ddin't get enough sleep cause I kind of snored really loud last night, hee hee. I think I have sleep apnia, cause my throat was all funny feeling. At least we got to have lunch today, went to some medditerranean restaurant, where the waitress had no idea what we were telling her, and messed up Grants order, haha. But at least the food tasted good and grant paid. But we think that heather may have had an allergic reaction to it. We spent most of the evening at the Casino photographing bands, and heather had to walk like ten minutes through the pedways just to get some effin Benydril, which made her act very strange. i think she actually went insane for a period of time. but it was all made better by being able to see Lennie Gallant at the Roots room, hearing the old familiar songs of last year. But damn those lighting crews that make our life as photographers a living hell!! And make Lennie look like a freakin racoon! And then we spent the rest of the night running around trying to take photos at the clubs around the city but kept running into lighting problems, like the first place which had no lights, and the second they blew a fuse and couldn't get the show lights running again. Plus it took us forever and a day to get a parking place close to the bars, I wanted to just give up. The thing that saved our evening was when Gord Johnson showed up at the SoHo, and actually said hello to us, very surreal but glorious. And then we got to have pastries and tea/coffee back at the hotel to round out our day. A very nice way to end another stressful day, hope tomorrow is much better................please don't litter!!
