New Loop Station

I’ve been working with my new Boss RC-505 MK II Looper in preparation for the upcoming workshop with Pig Iron Theater Company. All of the devisers were given the assignment to learn three Aimee Mann songs before next week. Lead vocals are admittedly not one of my strong suits, but arrangement is, so I’m hoping this room full of transcendent singers and performers will be fooled by my creativity toward covering up my lack of singing skills. Unfortunately technology isn’t a strength either, but I have plenty of time due to a rare and fortunately light week. I’ll be spending the next week learning how to use this Loop Station and going to Six Flags Great Adventure with a comedy gig in Delaware and a Memorial Day parade with members of the Sun Ra Arkestra in New Jersey in between. As I learn how to use this Loop Stations, I’ll probably throw some stuff on Instagram and Youtube. Coincidentally, I have another gig coming up for which I was asked to bring my Loop Station with Heath Allen, so this work will go a long way. I love when I’m getting paid and learning a new skill at the same time. Does anyone else want to pay me to learn something new?
