Greetings from Hamburg, Germany, where I am currently in Lorenzo Hotel waiting on room service and generally resting my poor body. The initial plan was to go out to Kunsthalle Hamburg, an art museum, to witness Friedrich’s “Wanderer at the…

I LOST MY PASSPORT: 8 Nov 2016. Boston, MA.
In a window of about 15 minutes on Saturday afternoon, I lost my passport (with my Chinese business visa) TWO DAYS before I was meant to leave the country.

Espresso at 8 PM and Other Necessary Decisions: 2 Nov 2016. Kingwood, TX.
The short version:
I drank a lot of coffee, did a lot of work, wore myself down too much, did the shows (sang my ass off!), went home and slept it all off.
Zzzzz.

Somewhere Between Rehearsals and Death: 5 October, 2016. Boston, MA
So here's a thing: I left Berklee in May for a plethora of reasons (mostly because I travel like crazy and Boston makes me unnervingly grey), but have continued my studies online so that I can finish my degree. This…

Dog, Bed, and Coffee: There's No Place Like Home (+ProgPower USA XVII): 15 Sept, 2016. Kingwood, TX.
ProgPower USA XVII stuff at the end! ;)
A brief catch up—I’ve been staying with friends in Boston for almost a month (Jenn and Jose, I can’t thank you enough) while teaching metal singing and doing Spires/FirstBourne/Queen Boudicca stuff.

The Calm Before the Storm: 7 Sept, 2016. Boston, MA.
It’s been a bit of a quiet week—mostly I have spent it getting my affairs in order before ProgPower! This means lots of filming #PracticeRoomCam videos (lots of power metal: Dragonland and Dragonforce), working on school, teaching metal voice…

"I swear you're the Energizer Bunny" : 31 Aug, 2016. Boston, MA.
It probably goes without saying that I am a tired lady, haha. BUT, as I always say... better to be busy and productive than bored :D

Once More Into the Unknown: 18 Aug '16. Houston, TX.
Tomorrow, I leave TX, without any real idea of when I'll be back. Again. That's fine :) I've had some lovely quiet days!

I am so excited to finally have…

"Take Some Time Off," They Said: 8 August '16. Cambridge, Ontario.
Hello from Cambridge, Ontario, where I went between Queen Boudicca rehearsals in hopes of indulging in some R&R. Classic Adrienne: I've still logged 4-5 solid hours of work every day, but I suppose that's the nature of showbiz haha.
