The Magic Rooftop that we are or are not stuck on.

I'm writing from our rooftop again. I know, it seems as if we're stuck on this little piece of Palermo. Well, believe me...we're not. Although maybe we should be, because somehow it leads to productivity (why am I suddenly obsessed with productivity? Unhealthy). Not only do songs that I'm happy with emerge on this terrace - ideas and plans for the video do too. We had a short get together here with Maurizio yesterday regarding the videoshoot. He has a location in mind for the party bit of the video. We're going to check it out very soon!

Last night Marco and I went over to Piazza San Francesco. A pretty piazza, that's obviously very well known by everyone here as the place was packed. Lovely atmosphere and delicious food at Antica Focacceria. Check out Marco looking relaxed and satisfied. :-)

P.S. Did I mention the rooftop's great for reading as well? Haruki Murakami's the word.

The Sicily Experience

Hello, hello! Welcome to this page that I'm going to use to keep track of our time in Sicily. A while back I was here with friends for only a few days and felt that this island would be the perfect place for writing songs and more importantly, have an incredibly cool time! So I booked the plane tickets, an apartment in the hub (or what I believed is the hub) of Palermo and started to look forward to the trip obsessively. Now that we're here - we arrived August 11th - I can say it feels very good. This city is crazy, busy, beautiful. The apartment is great, full of books and cd's (thank you, Maurizio at VisitPalermo.it).

I'll be posting pics and bits about our time here, as well as updates on the songs and the music video we're going to shoot here. More about that soon. Now back to having coffee on the sunny roof top...

Cheers!
