| I started a brawl in the studio with the lead trumpet player. Fists and stuff was flying everywhere.
I once asked a musician backstage - Q: "I see so and so's name on the list of musicians... I hear he is a terrible ball scratcher is that true"
A: "Why are you asking me ask him... (point at the fellow he is drinking with)"
Once recorded some modern classical music for the music academy. After 2 hour of random notes, I decided to need to go. The guy said "If u leave - u will be cut out of my moderm music scene" I said as I walked out the door "I hope that is a promise..."
When I was in the air force band there was a pretty female singer that the whole band had at least 1 ride. The commander didnt know this and was in love. Needless to say life became hell after he found out.
I use to record in a studio in Tel Aviv that the owner lived in a room in the back of the recording room and used to come out in a bathrobe and toothbrush as the player are playing to say hi
The same owner had a client that asked - "Can I hear that song one more time" He replied "This is a recording studio not a listening studio"
I once told a producer "Listen to the tracks well... concentrate - its the last time anyone will ever hear this track again...."
Man there are some shady studios in this world... The air force band use to pee in a piano in one of the army bases and use the xylophone as a loading ramp. loaded the band's equipment on the singers acoustic guitar which later broke during performance... |
