JEDIRICH.COM New York City 

The Jedi moved back to Manhattan. Jedi Rich's family and Jedi Joy's family are from New York.  Jedi Rich's Mother's parents immigrated to Yonkers.  Jedi Joy's Mother's family lived in Babylon, Long Island before they moved out West to sunny California. Jedi Rich's M other and her closest family moved out West to Las Vegas, Nevada.

Las Vegas needs a comeback song. "I'm Still Standing" would be a good choice since Elton John loves Las Vegas. 

​Love & Understanding
I’m a shithead.  I know. When you’re s shithead, people treat you like shit.  Im used to it.  But a lot of people are not, especially on the Internet.  So what I’m asking is, “Maybe we can all start being a little nicer to each other on the Internet”

The Jedi final take of the Las Vegas Raiders Anthem before we leave for Panamá 🇵🇦 in September.  Once we receive our passports, we will depart. This week, (August 17 2020), record heat wave will send temps up to 113℉! So the Jedi went to allegiant and made a music video.

Unbearable heat but he Jedi still perform! ¡Calor insoportable, pero el Jedi todavía funciona!

​La toma final Jedi del Las Vegas Raiders Anthem antes de partir hacia Panamá 🇵🇦 en septiembre. Una vez que recibamos nuestros pasaportes, partiremos. Esta semana (17 de agosto de 2020), ¡una ola de calor récord enviará temperaturas de hasta 113 ℉! Así que los Jedi se volvieron fieles e hicieron un video musical.

Jedi Rich Lightowler started recording copyrighted material at age 5 in Milwaukie, Oregon 1972.  He found a two-track cassette recorder, the kind that you had to press "play & record" together to record and he would audio record "Star Trek" off the TV every night for his Dad when he got off work. At age 5, Jedi Rich thought the recordings were a Masterpiece. Jedi Rich dreamed of being able to someday do the same thing with video recorder, but the VCR had not yet been invented. 

Here's a little bit about Jedi Joy. In 2002, Jedi Joy graduated high school one year early. Instead of going to college like her sister, Jedi Joy joined the U.S. Air Force at age 17.  She wanted to serve her country after the tragic events of 9/11.  Her parents had to sign a waiver.  While she was in the Air Force, her mother committed suicide.  This event changed the course of Jedi Joy's life forever. 

​Aquí hay un poco sobre Jedi Joy. En 2002, Jedi Joy se graduó de la escuela secundaria un año antes. En lugar de ir a la universidad como su hermana, Jedi Joy se unió a la Fuerza Aérea de los Estados Unidos a los 17 años. Quería servir a su país después de los trágicos eventos del 11 de septiembre. Sus padres tuvieron que firmar una renuncia. Mientras estaba en la Fuerza Aérea, su madre se suicidó. Este evento cambió el curso de la vida de Jedi Joy para siempre.

Back to Jedi Rich. In 1996, Jedi Rich built his first digital audio workstation (DAW) in Oakland, California on Rich St. between Telegraph & 42nd Avenue.  The house was located "down the way" from Mosswood Park where Jedi Rich would play hoops on the weekends  Three out of five band members were named Rich & the studio was on Rich Street, so naturally the band was called "Timothy James & the Crying Shames".   It was an experimental studio, built in a detached garage. But it worked. And it was portable so Jedi Rich could record the band's live shows when they played in San Fransisco. 

​De vuelta a Jedi Rich. En 1996, Jedi Rich construyó su primera estación de trabajo de audio digital (DAW) en Oakland, California en Rich St. entre Telegraph y 42nd Avenue. La casa estaba ubicada "en el camino" de Mosswood Park, donde Jedi Rich jugaba al baloncesto los fines de semana. Tres de cada cinco miembros de la banda se llamaban Rich y el estudio estaba en Rich Street, por lo que, naturalmente, la banda se llamaba "Timothy James & the Crying Vergüenzas ". Era un estudio experimental, construido en un garaje independiente. Pero funcionó. Y era portátil para que Jedi Rich pudiera grabar los shows en vivo de la banda cuando tocaban en San Fransisco.

The skills Jedi Rich learned building that DAW are the same needed today in a non-linear, non-destructive recording environment  In fact, you need to know much less today to build and use a DAW under normal circumstances. 

​Las habilidades que Jedi Rich aprendió al construir ese DAW son las mismas que se necesitan hoy en día en un entorno de grabación no lineal y no destructivo. De hecho, necesita saber mucho menos hoy para construir y usar un DAW en circunstancias normales.

Why Hire a Married Couple? 
​¿Por qué contratar a una pareja casada?

​Casado una vez. Nunca divorciado. Están comprometidos. Son personas en las que puedes confiar.

Married once. Never divorced. They are committed. They are people you can trust.

Jedi Joy Kirkpatrick & Jedi Rich Lightowler met in 2009.  The have only been married only once. To each other. Since 2014.

​Jedi Joy Kirkpatrick y Jedi Rich Lightowler se conocieron en 2009. Solo se han casado una vez. El uno al otro. Desde 2014.

Jedi Rich es un hombre en el que puedes confiar.
Jedi Joy es una mujer en la que puedes confiar.​

A better question: What kind of people have you been hiring? You hired a team of people who choose to spend 80% of their wake time away from people they love. Meaning, they are either lying to their feelings, lying to their loved ones (wow) or lying to the business (bigger wow). You can’t be in two places at one time. Further, as a manager, how will you feel asking Jimmy Jimenez in editing to make a last minute animation changes over the weekend, knowing, little Jimmy has got the Scripts Spelling Bee Championship finals in Santa Cruz on Saturday. Eventually, you will resent Jimmy or he will resent you. But Jimmy’s wife & kids will resent both of you. Over 90% of marriages today in their 30s will get divorced before the couple is in their 50s. 

"Limit Your Liabilities - Hire a Husband/Wife Production Team"™️

With all the #MeToo's in the Entertainment, music & film industry, now you can limit your liability by hiring a two-person team for your project; similar to how doctors & dentists treat patients of the opposite gender.  Sounds weird, but that's the world we live in today. 

​Con todos los # MeToo en la industria del entretenimiento, la música y el cine, ahora puede limitar su responsabilidad contratando un equipo de dos personas para su proyecto; similar a cómo los médicos y dentistas tratan a los pacientes del sexo opuesto. Suena raro, pero ese es el mundo en el que vivimos hoy.
