We just passed another Beatle milestone on October 9th. It would have been John Lennon’s 75th birthday (and as many pointed out in Socialmedialand, his son Sean’s 40th). The world continues the nostalgic hypothesizing and speculating as to the what ifs had Lennon lived.

I was overwhelmed with what CMW had to offer. So much to see and do, so many contacts to make, so much to learn and waaaay too many clubs to hit. Impossible in ten days but we all do our very best.

Thanks to the good people at AudioBlood, Bob Segarini, Pat Blythe and myself have spent the last ten days mixing and mingling with musicians, artists, and the people who love them. It’s been simultaneously exhausting and exhilarating. I won’t lie … my feet hurt, I’ve got a desk covered in CDs, business cards, and promotional bumpf of all stripes … and I’m relieved that I don’t have to do anything more strenuous than type this recap of the festivities. Although there are a few more events tonight …

I’ve been gently reminded that at the end of my very first column months ago, I wrote that for my next one, I’d write about how Bobby Curtola almost got me killed In Edmonton (did that, check); how Rock and Roll Hall of Fame record producer and musician extraordinaire Quincy Jones kept me waiting (did that one too, check); and my dinner with Yoko Ono (oops, forgot to write about that, sorry).
So, here goes.
