I bought a Van & I'm headin WEst!
Yep, I went out and bought a van yesterday like I said I was going to do! It ended up costing me $1200 and it's awesome!
I'm going to try and get JVC who have sponsored my show in the past, to loan me a couple camera's and if I can find a couple people who want to go with me, I'm going to drive the hell out of this thing all the way to Regina and back! The televised Gemini Awards show is being held in Regina next Sunday night so in an effort to milk my nomination for "Best Host in a Lifestyle series" for all it's worth and assumming I will never get nominated ever again, I want to go to the awards show, walk the red carpet, get interviewed by ET and almost certainly embarass myself in every little town along the way!
It's a Vantastic idea!
You guys have been reading my blog lately. I'm sure you can tell that more than anything else these days, I desperately need just to be inspired again. I need to get back to that place in my head where I was six years ago. A road trip would be perfect! I can get back to meeting and shooting footage out there on the road with all sorts of people in all sorts of places on my way to the Gemini Awards all the way out there in the prairies. I can't wait to get going!!!!!!!
Tonight on the tube, Another Crappy Canadian Latenight Talkshow with JR DIGS goes back on the air. I've been shooting footage here and there over the last few months for the show but wasn't exactly feeling as inspired as I should be. A road trip right now would be a very cool idea and having Regina circled on the map gives me as much of plan as I need!
I'm going to have to air some of the orignally shot episodes over the next few weeks in order to just take off like this so I thought I may as well start back at the beginning tonight. The first time I ever met "Hurricane Andy" was the week after I was waking around naked by myself with my original JVC camera that had been given to me to start shooting the show with.
When I tell people that this is a low budget show, I don't think they really understand just how low budget it really is cause I just spent most of it on an old Van to drive out West in!(lol)
