Terrance Damian Newsletter - September 2006

Friend,

Hi. Well, I'm sitting in Motor City Joe's coffee house in
Warren, MI. This is a cool place that has been remodeled, with
hard wood floors, nice decor, plus more. They also offer free
wi-fi (wireless internet). In case you are wondering, they are
located on Hoover Rd., near 12 mile.

I've got some exciting news to share with you this month!
Recently I got engaged to my beautiful girlfriend Sarah.
I proposed to her after a long scavenger hunt, which ended up
with her getting a small folded note at the bottom of her ice
cream cone (actually custard)... We were sitting on a bench at
the playground of the grade school I went to (St. Lawrence).
After she read the note I got down on one knee while smiling
and holding the ring in an open box. With a little laughter,
and being full of emotion I asked her to marry me! She was
already teary eyed by the time she read through most of the
note. She was also completely surprised. Now we are busy
making plans for a decent size wedding, honeymoon, and place
to live! Exciting! Whew!

I've spent another month in the studio with Jim, about 5 days
per week mixing this CD. However, we've mixed this CD down
accurately, and the songs have been carefully crafted. Most
likely, as you read this, the CD will be completed (Friday).
I'll ship the mixed down songs to a mastering studio soon.
The mastering studio will polish off each song with more
compression, EQ, and other things to improve the overall mixes.
From there, the CD will be pressed up at a CD manufacturing
company right here near Detroit.

Yesterday I spent an afternoon doing a photo shoot with
a great photographer named Jeff Witters. He has done photography
for the Metro Times, and does some great local art photography.
I'm far from being a model, but I thought the pictures turned
out nicely for the new CD coming out, a press kit, and for
web site use! I also lost about 8 or 10 pounds for these photos.
The way I lost some extra weight was by drinking absolutely no
pop, and ate no junk food (except some chocolate) for a few
months... I also switched from drinking heavier beers to super
light beer. Still, I think most of the weight was lost due to
eating much more organic food, especially organic meat. My gym
membership hasn't been used much though. I've been quite busy.
I'll have to work on that this month.

Soon I will have a brand new web site online! I don't like
the idea of saying "bye" to my old web site after 5 years, but
it is time for a new web site! This new site will be pro
quality. The site will have many of the same features as the
old site, plus new features such as a media player.

From time to time I like to mention what my little sister
(Debbie) is up to with her modeling career. Recently she made
a cool hair styling video for Herbal Essence. You can see
the video online. Click the link below, and then click on her
pic to play the video. She is the girl in the top left photo
(brunette). http://www.herbalessences.com/us/get_the_look/index.jsp

This Saturday (Sept. 2nd) I'm playing at the Raven Coffeehouse
in Port Huron. See the full list of shows at my web site.

It's almost fall! My favorite season is this time of year,
and to me the fall weather makes Michigan the place to be..
at least right now.

Enjoy the looonngg weekend!
