Well it's 6:30 in the morning and don't ask me why I'm awake...this is the first day that I haven't had to be awake but I guess I'm just amped! It's been an awesome week and I'm really excited about where this industry is going. Also, thank you so much for supporting me and for the encouragement you all give to me on a daily basis! You guys and gals Rock!!!

To recap a bit, we (Tim and I) left on a boat last thursday to get around the closed section of the 101 and then hitched a ride the rest of the way to L.A. where we had a wedding on Friday. Here are some fun pics from the weekend.









After that we buzzed out to New Orleans to hookup with the PICtage crew who were working the PPA tradeshow. I had never been to a convention thing like this and it was pretty sweet! For those of you considering going to WPPI - GO! WPPI will be way better than PPA and I'll definitely be there so we'll see if we can round up a crew.

Anyway we spent the days promoting PICtage and talking about how they have helped grow our business and then at night we took advantage of SOME not ALL of the Mardi Gras excitement! This is, as Dane warned me, a pretty crazy place! WOW! We bought a mini dv cam to bring out here and we'll see if we can get a little video edited up on the plane so you can see more of what it's been like!

We were also able to meet the staff from our new album company, I promise I will be telling you about them shortly! I know I keep putting you off but we were finally able to see a big chunk of their work and their books are ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL!

Again, I'm amped about the changes happening right now and I'm excited to get back to SB and see some of you!

Cheers!
DJ

Glad to hear you had a good time DJ!!! Last time I was there (in New Orleans) was at Mardi Gras... Crazy times
