Sixteenth Journal Entry (07/21/02)

So I'm going to China.

MTV has asked me there next week to perform at the music awards in Bejing. I have never been. I'm going to get to see the great wall of..duh...China. Pretty cool I must say.

Then it's off to Australia for tour rehearsals. I'm really looking forward to being there with my family and friends and spending time in the country I love so much.

I've had a blast this week with Robert (he and I wrote Crush) and Andrew (our MD) doing new arrangements to the songs for the show. My neighbors got a little angry at me for making noise. I had to remind them I'm never home anyway and that.. hey... I make music for a living so if they let me keep making the noise I need to this week I'll theoretically be gone for EVER touring. Then they won't have to deal with me at all!! Older, professional types don't dig the pop muzik let me tell ya.

I've now seen Minority Report and I'm happy to report it's another big green tick from me to SP. And for the record.. I did like A.I. I bought it on DVD recently and think it's more of a Stanley film than a Steven. But that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Must be off. Lots to do. We're choosing the next single for the u.s... doing some remixing.. planning the next video... the tour. Oh it's all happening. Can't wait.

take care..

talk to you when I'm down under..
