Sunday – the last day of the festival! Panels wrapped up yesterday so everyone got to have a sleep in. Once we all rolled out of bed, we decided to embark on a structured activity and go to the museum. We hit the Gardiner which was mostly ceramics (Ciro’s specialty). If it weren’t for my […]
I don’t know if it was me or something in the air, but I couldn’t stay awake for more than a few hours today. Neither could Caleb and neither could Dad. This is an example of a situation where the Team dynamic is especially valuable. Ciro kept the band ball rolling by hitting 2 panels […]
Day 4 My first order of business today was attending the panel on Touring. It was 2 hours long and full of useful insights. The best tips I got were as follows: 1) Always make a worst case scenario budget. Spend the time fund raising, saving, applying for grants, etc. and consider all costs. What […]
Today was the first day of panels and showcases. Lena and I started the day with a few hours of breathing and vocal warm ups, and then headed to our first panel: “Music in Film and Television; Licensing and Placement”. We actually knew one of the panelists. Her name is Adaline, and we met her […]
Lena and I awoke only a few hours after we had gone to bed. We should have been far more tired than we were. It gave me hope than when it’s go time, I can pull out the stops against all odds. I think that only applies to passion, because if it was daycare (no […]

2pm. Last night, CIRO put me to bed and said he needed to stay up and “do some things”. Birthday prep and homework. I fell asleep pretty fast as I usually do but woke up a few times in the night just to notice that he still hadn’t come to bed. When 6:30 a.m. rolled […]
