I've been in NYC for 2 days now, and it's been a whirlwind ever since the plane touched down.  The first night, I went to dinner with a colleague/, Julia Roy (www.juliaroy.com - great blog, and founder of Tweet Week) to pick her brain about social media, how it fits into music, and how far you can walk to end up at a restaurant right by your hotel. :) (just kidding JR) She gave me a ton of great info, and is very sweet, so read her blog and follow her Tweet Week updates if you're not already!!

The next day, I had a few meetings, then went to the tree lighting at Rockefeller Center with my client.  We were fortunate enough to get a police escort through the crowd and right up by the stage (which was awesome - thanks Tommy!!).  We saw a few musical performances, including Harry Conick Jr.  The funniest part was that many of the big name acts were taped a week ago - but there were thousands of screaming teen girls there that thought they were going to see the Jonas Brothers.  NBC made it look like they were on the top of Rockefeller Center (wich is really where they shot), but nobody knew they weren't even in the city last night, which I found quite funny.  We ended up leaving before the tree was officially lit, due to the client being cold and both of us being very hungry.  Went to dinner at a very nice restaurant, and ended up hanging out until late chatting.  Good client relation building time!!

Today, I've been in meetings all day.  The day started out great, then kind of started to drag.  I'm writing this blog, then heading out to dinner with the people I spent the whole day with.  Supposed to be a nice place, so we'll see.  Tomorrow, it's more meetings, then home on Saturday.

All in all, I'm having a great time here in NYC.  There is just so many cool things going on, interesting people, and very inspiring things to see.  I'll try to write more soon, that's a little more than just filling you in on my hectic week. :)
