ELEONORA AND OREGON

From August 16th to August 28th I went to a place called Tigard, Oregon with the band Eleonora. My job was to film the entire experience and post recording blogs on youtube. I didnt know what to expect. Along the way I kept journal entries about the goings on. And with that I feel the need to share my thoughts. The following entries are transcribed exactly as they were written. No bullshit, no hype. straight up. :

With the band after night 1.
Slept in the van.
So much respect for these guys.
It takes a certain kind of person to do this, to be around the same guys day after day.
being an outside perspective and falling in with the ranks. pictures of girlfriends are the only
keepsakes of a life at home.
music brings everyone together. to them, its a stronger bond than blood itself.
I asked Chris about this whole mess and he replied to me, "I don't ever want to look back and say, 'I should have toured'."
I have a lot to edit.
(the next morning)
waking up at 8:49 in the am. everyone is still asleep.
We're in the parking lot of some shopping plaza behind a best buy.
we have to get to the studio by 10.
