Good Lord, what a week!

Starting off last Friday (June 26, 2009) I zoomed up to Boston for a heavy duty bit of marketing work at a client’s major trade show. So between that, client entertainment and trying to maneuver around all the celebrity corpses that sadly seemed to be falling everywhere, I didn’t have so much time to focus on V.O.

Sometimes you gots to follow da money!

But Saturday night I did get out to visit with voiceover friends in Boston who were so generous with their time when they came out for a Boston voice over meet up.

I am so energized by these meet ups (all SUCH talented people) and the conversations were so great that I didn’t want the night to end. Yet I knew my client responsibilities held a long day ahead on Sunday so I bid adieu.

My thanks to my fine and talented friends who shared their time and talent with me on Saturday. I am forever grateful to be in this business with them.

    @Jodi Krangle – thanks, we really did. And I left early…I think some of those crazy VO kids stayed a little longer. Party animals!

    @Moe Egan – back at ya! You’re a lovely person in addition to your fine talent!

    @Bob Souer – speaking of lovely persons, you would have enjoyed the laugh we all had at the idea of a Souer cardboard cut out at each meet up!

    @Liz de Nesnera – if only I could get my family to react the same way, the world would be right!

    Thanks all!

    Best always,
    – Peter

    Mags:

    More like the lead in the Dinner Theatre version of the BSWT.

    Bob is Broadway and I’m the Catskills.

    Best always,
