Started the day at 6a.m with the Conan O'brien cross-load. We had to park at 33rd and 11th, unload our gear to be transported via box truck, and later meet up with it at the NBC studios in 30 Rock. Got to see the sunrise through the New York City skyline. Loaded in at Conan around 11a.m. Conan's people are SUPER professional, those who were once road dogs and those who have been working in studios for a majority of their professional career. I met Jimmy, the production manager, has been working for NBC for over 30 years, who once worked on the Johnny Carson set. I met Dave, who is an old road dog who once worked for the biggest production company in the world, Clair Brothers. Clair Brothers provides sound equipment for some of the biggest tours ever made possible. My good-good buddy Eric currently works for those cats. Matisyahu came out for a cameo performance.
Got into Philadelphia around 8p.m. We stayed at the Loew's, which is located right in the middle of downtown. A block east is Philadelphia City Hall and Love Park, and a few blocks to the west is the historical district. Downtown was pretty dead, being that it was a Monday night. The view from our hotel room was EPIC. The clock tower was literally in our face.
I'm getting sick.
Take care buddies.
