You know what, for once, i’ll not talk about music. Or at least it’ll not be the major theme let’s say ahah. For once, i’m in Brussels. I mean, the whole week end will be in the city i’m supposed to live. Supposed to live, because Dopplr informed me that on the last 6 months, I was not at my place for 63 days (yes, it’s more than 2 months ahah)… But well, when i’m around, I still love being here. So here we were going for a lovely under a great weather (for most of the time at least). « Alors Bruxelles je te la donne » chante Bénabar…

Friday evening, was supposed to go to Viller’s Abbey 40 minutes outside of Brussels. Will not make it for several reasons, a shame, considering that a theater piece by Moliere was created there just for the summer. Rumor has it it was lovely. I’m sure it was. So was heading to the other event of the nite, the birthday of one of the graphist, collegue and friend i’m working with at the studio. She’s turning 25, and we’re heading to their place to put everything upside down.

Oddly enough, I feel good, surrounded by those people who once again broke the idea of me being a producer and learn to know me as « who I am ». As a producer, i’m supposed to be the devil for them, the superior force that will strike on them when they are late, or when we’ll need a black sheep, it will just hit randomly. Not my way to see my job, explaining why I asked to be with them at the same place and being with them, helping them instead of beating them (if i can talk metaphorically obviously). So here we are, 18 months after I started, some are friends, some are just sayin’ hello, some left during production, but in the end… A good thing is coming out of it. Once outside of the studio, there’s no boss or what. What’s happening during businness hours is nothing personnal, just work. And we all forget that, get a drink and have a nice party.

Maty is a talented photographer who’s doing some compositing at the studio. And he had the great idea to create a « one night only take your own portrait » studio at their place, my tripod, his D90, flash with « home made diffuseur », a remote, 2€ glasses and hats and we were all set. And that was epic ahah. Some should be considered as top secret and seen only when the first one of the whole gang will get married, there’s really some collector clichés ahah, but well, you know, everyone happy and loving the idea, there will be some nice moments in there.

ahah, the result will just be brilliant, you can see the whole Album on Maty’s Stream, and that’s definitely worth a look Time to head home and starting to prepare a very nice saturday that is going to take place.

And we’re going to be Tourists, visiting downtown Old Brussels, his Grand Place, the chocolate fountain, some Belgian old tradition I’ve never heard about (Meyerboom), the Manneken Pis, the whole stuff, but well, weather is lovely, and i’m pretty happy to get those people to come and visit my town, hoping they’ll like it as much as I do. Discovering some nice places, surrounded by nice people. You know, the kind of city your not afraid to live in (how’s that I’m talking about Paris? ahaha :p ).

We’re now heading to « bruxelles-les-bains », a summer event that is taking place near the canal of Tour & Taxis. T&T being the place where I first became a Jedi, as long as where couleur café or the cosplay during the BIFFF was held. Feet in the sand, a mojito, some sun.. honestly what more can we ask for?

Heading to the FM Brussel Bus, the friend from Laid-back are going to air a show live from here, always with their fine tunes and good spirit, always cool to have them around, always there to help the nice project they are building, pieces after pieces… Moment where 2 part of my world are joining, the Brussels side and the « from years ago » one. But it turned out very well actually, happy once again to share those sunny and nice moments with all those people

Took some snaps of course, and even if live they sealed the deal without any major issue. Remembers me when I went to shot them in the Studio for their weekly show. Very cool memory. Happy to see people are remembering me as well, who knew ahah

They it was decided it was time to go taste « les sushis de Cyril ». Back in my bday, the « sushishop » near my place add special receipe made by Cyril Lignac (the French Jamie Oliver). New season, those aren’t there anymore, but definitely worth a try, nice dinner, address duty noted. I’ll get back someday.

Time to go to the Fun Fair near the International Train station, randomly bumping into the friends that were with us at Bruxelles les bains, and decided to take a ride… Didn’t seemed much high from the ground.. actually it was… and turning not quickly, but small sensations none the less ahah

Time to head home and rest around a nice red wine glass, time to chill, and just enjoy the company.

In My hears : Eagle Eye Cherry -Save Tonite- ♫  » Go on and close the curtains/ cause all we need is candle light/ You and me and a bottle of wine/ going to hold you tonight/ Well we know I’m going away  and how I wish, I wish it weren’t so/ So take this wine and drink with me/ let’s delay our misery/ Save tonight/ and fight the break of dawn/ Come tomorrow/ tomorrow I’ll be gone » ♫
