If you’re a card-carrying digital immigrant, the above title should grab you right away.

First, the easy stuff. Just doing a shout-out for the SCTC’s annual conference, this year being held in Annapolis, MD. It’s a pretty small, specialized community, so it won’t be relevant for all of you, but that’s where I’ll be next week. Of course, SCTC members know all about it, but it’s also open to non-member consultants, so if that’s you, it’s not too late to make plans.

Aside from attending, I’ll be giving the locknote talk at the conference close on Thursday, so that’s very much on my to-do list for the next few days.

Then, there’s Little Pink. Sound familiar? How about Big Pink? You should know that one:

Classic album, of course, with Bob Dylan and the Band holed up in upstate New York at their Big Pink house for what would become the Basement Tapes. As you may know, I play keyboards and guitar with the SIPtones, and we’re performing at the conference party next Wednesday - at the prestigious US Naval Academy - cool, huh?

Tomorrow, I’m packing up my gear and driving to the Adirondacks, where we’re doing our version of this over the weekend as we rehearse for our gig. We won’t be recording at “Little Pink”, but that’s definitely the vibe we’ll be channeling. Let’s hope it rubs off at the show, and if you’re there, we sure hope you let us know!
