Friday October 3 I was in this sound booth at a music studio in L.A. T. J. Troy, a man with a voice, has done the reading for my new audio version of The Little Bastards. The studio thought it would be nice if I would come down and read the preface in person. After 3 attempts I passed. I was sitting in front of a mike once used by Bob Dylan. It's a powerful feeling to whisper into a microphone and have the sound come roaring out the other end. I got the hell out of there and came back to Oregon before I got to liking it too much.
