I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Yep: Audio engineer. Philadelphia. Recording? Sure--go to www.allmusic.com and search on "Gordon Rice" to find out what I've done in the past; I'm still trying to remember the future. Live mixing? Sure--drop by the Fire on a Tuesday, Wednesday or random weekend night.The blog gets updated once or twice a week. Got questions? Look there first . . . or just drop me a line--at the moment I'm often online from 3-5am Eastern and looking for something/someone interesting to talk about/to.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anybody interested in music (*any* music--there's very little that I don't like!), people who like to cook, people who are up *really* late: Audio often involves being at work 'til 2AM!

My Blog

Another small commemoration

It's just after 11 on 21 May. 25 years ago at this moment, I was saying "I do," and evidently not thinking hard enough about what I was doing.Today, I'm letting somebody work on my mouth again.I can'...

*groan*

Through a stroke or two of good fortune, I'm having some dental work that I've needed for years done.To whoever's reading: Take care of your gums! I've just lost two days recovering from a procedure...

This wonderful interweb thingy--and a small commemoration

It's been a while, I know. Been trying to keep my head above water, and only just barely succeeding. I want, though, to make note of a couple of things:1. This interweb thingy is really quite amazi...

Spinal Tap is alive and well!

Yes indeedy--they're just playing under another name these days. In tonight's episode, singer insisted on using his own wireless mic--which had been denuded of its power and mute switches. "It's OK,...

Trying to recover

From a song that blindsided me two days ago:" 'Kind friend--Can you help me remove the markOf a loveless lover?'And I said 'No, I'm sorry--What's done I can't undoBut I can wait with you' "I was struc...

A placeholder while I figger out whassup

Yes, it's been a while. It's going to be a while longer before I can write anything really substantive: I'm scrambling for money again and that panic seems to make it impossible for me to write anyt...

Slowly improving

. . . my mood, that is. Two Mondays ago, I decided that even though it was probably not the best idea financially, I'd better spend some time staring at the sea. Therefore, I hit the beach at Ocean ...

What a weekend . . .

Warning: This is a rant.So here I am, still in a really bad mood, with a show to play tomorrow night and bloody little sleep between now and then. I've also got one tune to mix and three to master ...

Probably just thinking too much

I'm not sure why, but I decided to read Huxley's Brave New World over the course of this past weekend. I'd read it before, but well over twenty years ago and this rereading was quite honestly like re...
