Itinerary for Trevor Scott week of November 9th to the 15th:
Monday Nov. 10: 12:00 PM go to studio and set up for next day recording session. Find out that the group wants to rehearse so set up for that instead. Stay there until 10:30 PM to make sure everything is OK.
Tuesday Nov. 11: 8:00 AM go to studio and set up for 11:00 AM session that should have been set up already. Record Jimi Hendrix cover of Manic Depression for 15 hours. 11:30 PM go home and go to sleep.
Wednesday Nov. 12: 9:00 AM go back to studio to clean up session that should have been cleaned up last night. Find out that they want to do some guitar over-dubs even though I have to be at work in a few hours. They don't seem to mind so record guitar over-dubs from 2:00 PM to 4:45 PM and finish clean up super fast because a REAL band is setting up right after we're done. 5:30 PM go to work and actually get paid.
Itinerary for Mitch Mitchel, drummer for Jimi Hendrix, same week:
Some time early in the week arrive in Portland, OR for the last stop of an 18 city US tour for a Jimi Hendrix dedication type thing.
Wednesday Nov. 12: Be found dead in Portland Hotel.
The group I was recording was put together by a lady that works at the studio doing video editing. She is a drummer and chose the Jimi Hendrix cover song that was played and recorded by Mitch Mitchel back in the 60's. Coincidences are always weird, but this is pretty high up there in my life.
