Loudest show: A Place to Bury Strangers. Though that's followed pretty closely by: the last thirty seconds of a Pixies show in 2004; and the first minute of an LCD Soundsystem show in 2017. The LCD Soundsystem show did the most permanent damage, because I forgot earplugs.

About Corman's Concorde Anois Studio:

"Nobody who was even faintly aware of the Corman method should have been surprised at the film-making approach he brought to Baile na hAbhann. Young people with zero experience were hired to do jobs they’d never done before and worked 72-hour weeks for a pittance. Titles such as The Game of Death, Knocking on Death’s Door and Bloodfist VIII were shot in three weeks. The company imported second-hand American cars for its US-set stories. These would be painted a different colour on each side so they could drive by the camera in one direction and then back in the other as if they were different vehicles..." Also too funny...

Friday after work I headed to La Casa Porchista for a CD release party. Got home about 12:20am and finally hit bed at 1am.
Saturday I was out the door by 8:45am to hit the CD sale at Woof Moo. 2 hours and 58 CDs later I was headed home with my back and my feet begging for mercy. Finally got home around 4:30pm and was useless for the rest of the day.

Audacity is still kicking my ass with the mic breaks, though.

After Audacity rejected the file from my phone app, I took my friend's advice and bought a headset. I recorded a file with the voice recorder on my computer. Audacity rejected it for the same reason it rejected the file from my phone app.
Then my friend suggested recording straight from Audacity. I pressed the record button and Audacity basically said "Nope".

Sometimes it's nice to have a beer but not the alcohol. Apparently non-alcoholic beer is one of the best "sport drinks" you can have because it has the electrolytes without ridicuolous amounts of sugar and flavorings and colors not found in nature. Kukko non-alcoholic pils has become my weekday go-to sauna beer.
