I hope you're gonna write under a pen name so we can read all the juicy stories...

Side story: there was a guy (Eric Sarafin) that wrote a book called 'Mixerman' ... basically it was the "diary" of a sound engineer mixing a new bidding war band (some said it was Lifehouse) that had industry backing, but was really bad.  The actual story was a conglomeration of a bunch of different bands he had mixed over the years, and he put his own humorous spin on it.  As a semi-professional musician that has worked in bands for the better part of the last 20 years, and spent some time in recording studios, I was totally able to relate to a lot of the stories and it really ended up being a fun and great book to read.

Anyways... if you choose to do a project like that, some embellishment/etc might be fun (although I'm sure the REAL stories are just as crazy and probably don't need much embellishment at all).

Sounds like a fantastic idea. If I had a shop it would be something to purchase for sure. Anyone with, should.

I'm in for one.
Sounds like this past week may be one of the best segments.

Thanks all there may be some veiled mentions to the industry but would be more about relationships
