re SAE
what i would say ben_j is that it depends on what you want to get out of it.
if you want to go work in a studio as an engineer, experience will get you more work than a degree. fact. if i went for a job, and someone with 2 years experience went for a job, they get it, hands down.
the reason i want the degree is so that if i have to get a 'regular' office job at any point hopefully (with the office experience ive got) mean that i can start climbing that corporate ladder a bit quicker. eugh. not that i want to do that, but you know what i mean.
the best thing about doing music at uni is the contacts you make. and also the experience.
on my course we've covered loads of stuff, not just the actual making/recording music - its a really good overview.
tbh i think the SAE will expect a decent level of knowledge in cubase/logic and also band recording before you can do the actual music production degree, but i remember jeanie looking into it and i think they do starter courses as well.
but yeh the SAE does look wicked, if i could afford it id try and do my last year at the london one.

I'm housesitting for my folks while they are away in Europe (yay no rent paying for 3 months!) and just 30 mins ago these, I think Jehovah's Witnesses or something, turn up and one of them is this stunning chick in her early twenties. Hottest chick I have seen in this small town ,no contest. God always gets the lookers! I'm tempted to check this girl, er I mean Church out. Yeah. }:-) :-D

I had a weird dream last night ...
I think in the first part I can remember Jeanie was there, but that's all I can remember... Anyway in the second part I was breaking into Thomas Bangalter's appartment :? I don't remember why. Before I could go away, TB and his wife came back and they asked me why I was there. I said I didn't want any harm and then I taled with Thomas Bangalter about Daft Punk and all... Oh yeah and I was coming from the future :?

Got no plans for the summer. I'll probably end up being dragged out to Arizona for a weekend picking up my son who'll be staying with stash's dad and step-mom. Fall and winter and spring wouldn't be so bad, but Arizona in the summertime is sheer hell as far as I'm concerned. I can't resist a roadtrip, something interesting is bound to happen.
Other than that. Nothing, nada, zip. Look forward to the weekends like any other time of year. Summer don't mean shit when you're an adult.
