TAXI Road Rally

I made it to Hollywood! I have to admit, although I am a member of Taxi (a screening organization, -helping with placing music in film) and I'd heard that their annual conference was great, the fact that it was in LA was an extra incentive to go.
Seeing the Chinese Theater and all the prints of the actors over the ages was inspiring...
and the Taxi Road Rally was inspiring, informative and a great place to meet others in the music business. I went to several classes on music business topics, but my favorite one was about "groove"...

I've always enjoyed playing fiddle tunes with different rhythms underneath them - everything from Irish bodhran to African beats to Brazilian percussion.
Last year I had a heart test (just checking on my heart valve) and I was amazed when I saw the heart on the screen and heard a Brazilian rhythm. I guess this explains why I have such an interest in the groove...
