Throwback to 2013 when I was invited to lead a photowalk for the Artists participating in the Artists In The Plus (I think it was called?) Live music event broadcast out of The Village (Studio) in LA, with a number of in-studio musicians, as well as a bunch live from their homes/etc via Google Plus. Amtrak hooked me up with a sleeper cabin on the Coast Starlight from Seattle to LA (and a Bus from Vancouver to Seattle) in return for photos for their blog 🫡 And I stayed with the artists at the organization's rental house, helped out in a variety of capacities wherever I could, lead a photowalk, and even ended up driving a rental van (I had my class 4 and lots of experience driving that and short busses from an earlier career [ @push- ]), including eventually ferrying a bunch of them from the home to LAX for their return flights eventually. More random Yerbearserker adventures. Ofc back then I went by the Maplemuskeer 😉 Rambling around where invited, sharing stories and photos, and living out of my backpack on a quest to encourage the awesome 🙏 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Village_(studio) For your interest/amusement here is a list of some of the Albums/Artists that recorded/had some sort of relationship with recordings in some form, with The Village 1973 Holland, The Beach Boys, 1973 There Goes Rhymin’ Simon, Paul Simon, 1973 Let’s Get It On, Marvin Gaye, 1973 1974 Wrap Around Joy, Carole King, 1974 1975 Blood on the Tracks, Bob Dylan, 1975 Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy, Elton John, 1975 1976 Hotel California, Eagles, 1976 1977 Rumours, Fleetwood Mac, 1977 Aja, Steely Dan, 1977 Moonflower, Santana, 1977 1978 Some Girls, The Rolling Stones, 1978 1979 Breakfast in America, Supertramp, 1979 The Wall, Pink Floyd, 1979 Tusk, Fleetwood Mac, 1979 Damn the Torpedoes, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, 1979 I Am, Earth Wind and Fire, 1979 1980 Gaucho, Steely Dan, 1980 1981 Bella Donna, Stevie Nicks, 1981 1982 Tug of War, Paul McCartney, 1982 1983 Synchronicity, The Police, 1983 1984 Purple Rain, Prince and The Revolution, 1984 1985 No Jacket Required, Phil Collins, 1985 Brothers in Arms, Dire Straits, 1985 1987 Bad, Michael Jackson, 1987 1989 Full Moon Fever, Tom Petty, 1989 1991 Unforgettable… with Love, Natalie Cole, 1991 1992 The Chronic, Dr. Dre, 1992 1994 The Division Bell, Pink Floyd, 1994 1997 Time Out of Mind, Bob Dylan, 1997 1999 Californication, Red Hot Chili Peppers, 1999 2000 Kid A, Radiohead, 2000 2002 By the Way, Red Hot Chili Peppers, 2002 2005 X&Y, Coldplay, 2005 2006 Stadium Arcadium, Red Hot Chili Peppers, 2006 2008 Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends, Coldplay, 2008 2011 21, Adele, 2011 2013 Random Access Memories, Daft Punk, 2013 2014 Cheek to Cheek, Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga, 2014 2015 25, Adele, 2015 2016 Joanne, Lady Gaga, 2016 2018 Golden Hour, Kacey Musgraves, 2018 Suffice to say... a life can be full of many various adventures that you never saw coming 😉 cc: @dish @diviflyy @zaal @bradq @nounishprof @adrienne @chriscocreated $GMYerb
