Los Angeles Trip Part II

So after having cream sodas and red ice teas with Ariel in silverlake at Intelligentsia we finally had to head over to Adam's to prepare for the interview/audition with ABC. We headed over there quickly and it felt good to have talked to Ariel about birthright Israel. We waited outside Adam's house and he came out looking like dapper dan in a dope ass suitjacket.

"Man you look like you're trying to 1up us!"

"Well I gotta look better then you guys."

Then we darted over to the disney/abc building after driving through a bunch of hollywood sets, colombia records, elektra records, warner brothers studios.
We finally got to the right building holding up the sign ABC.
They guy at the toll booth took all of our ids in order to confirm that we had an appointment. Noah, Trevor, and Mason gave him their driver's licenses and I gave him my school id. Everyone got a kick out of that. As we entered the premisis of the ABC buildings we noticed that the overhang of the main office building was being held up by the seven dwarves. In addition to the dwarves, the elevator to the parking garage had a huge mickey mouse wizard hat on it.
We entered the meeting with a great deal of nervousness due to the fact that the man who was interviewing us was fairly intimidating and had a strong personality. The music directors from the licensing department were awesome though. The meeting in short went fairly well. We played our asses off (swagger) when at the 2/3 mark of the meeting the emmy winning boss asked us to play. We were awkward in the first half, but towards the 2nd half of the interview we started warming up to them and we had a few good laughs and the left the audition with a feeling of strength.
