Re: Wanted: Seeking warehouse, large living space for music

Hi,

I want to move into a space to live that also can facilitate my recording equipment and rehearsing. I am professional with a business within the CBD. But when I get home I can't play and record music. I really want to have the freedom to do so. Anyone have a space to rent?!

Hi,
I think I may have the answer for you, but first I need to verify a few things about your music. Can you tell me the style you play? I don't want to be mean, but it might well be that you're just not very good and the people you live with are trying not to hurt your feelings by saying 'keep it down, we want to watch today tonight.' I mean, no one in their right mind watches that show.

I have access to a place in Palm Beach. It is a short bus ride on the L90 from the city. Just bring a book or a portable dvd player. I noticed on the stretchy buses, there is the rack at the front, so I think you'll find that spacious enough for your equipment. If you need more, you can just put it on the red seats next to the rack.


Ok, the place in palm beach had some issues not long ago. The roof is still in tact in most places and it certainly has a 'warehouse' feel to it. The pool is also still working, although you might need to bring some pool chemicals with you if you want to swim in there. There might be room for them behind the bus driver's seat if you ask him nicely.

I think $150 per week for the space would be fair. I've decided to factor in the neighbor next door into the price. He seems to be suffering from some sort of mental disorder. I can always smell funny smoke and he tends to shout loudly at the tv set. I think he gets frustrated watching 'deal or no deal,' so it might be a sensitive point. I wouldn't go around saying it's dumb or anything like that.

This is also the reason I asked about your music. He may not like it, in which case he might come over. To compensate for this, I'll throw in the free use of a tazar. Just light him up like a christmas tree if he comes near you. Then when he's on the ground, yell out "look out for the ice beatles" and you'll get a good laugh.

Anyway, let me know if you'd like to come and look at the place.
