Friday
We went to David’s place after he got off work at noon. We set up quickly only to find that we had problems with the XLR cable and the lavaliere mic. We call around and quickly get a number to Bartha Visual who came through with both for us for $16 bucks for 2 days.
Despite the trip there and back and a deadline of 5 o’clock, we were able to tape for an hour and ½. To Fletcher’s credit, I called them and told them of the faulty equipment and they’re going to ship replacements to the hotel in Joliet so it’ll be there waiting for us for our shoot on Monday. A gracious recovery of a bad situation.
David had something to take care of and we met up with him afterwards for dinner. An awesome place, RJ Snappers, in the Short North area of Columbus. Ahi Tuna cooked to perfection. We had a great time and a great dinner.
Tomorrow will have to be marathon taping. It’s our last day with David before we drive back to Illinois.
