So, when he's not busy rocking everyone's face off, Joe Lewis has a day job delivering goods for Quality Seafood. We tagged along - both in the back of the delivery van, and following him with one of our cars. Oh, yeah. We're good. Though we may end up not using most of the footage we shot from our car, but Joe is pretty rad and said some great things. Which made it totally worthwhile for Nathan to be sitting in whatever miscellaneous liquid it was that he was sitting in all morning. My bet is on fish juice.

He and Dave spent a good portion of the morning in the back of the van - so our cameras couldn't see them - as Rob and I shot out the back window of our car. Rob was tied down with some slack line, the back window tied up with rope, the seats folded down and both of us doing our best to keep the cameras steady (which, of course, was much more important than our actual safety - we're just bad ass like that). Eventually Rob ended up in the back of the van, and Nathan got to ride up front.

After a brief pause for tacos and regrouping at the office (sharing cars and small offices with fishy boys = not recommended), Nathan, Dave and I went over to Cari's house to meet with Belaire about the coming weeks of filming as they prep for recording their new album. I was kind of concerned before going in, because, after all, they're a tight-knit group and we're fast becoming one of our own, too. I think the greatest worry Nathan and I share is that our cameras may be invasive to the artists and their work. Once the meeting got going, though, all my fears were dispelled. The band are all open to us and the collaboration, and I think that once we begin sharing space and figuring out how we all work together, things will really take off. I can't wait to see their new material and how they develop it into the album.
Seriously, I actually get paid for this.
