voyage to the bottom of the internet
« on: March 30, 2010, 05:54:42 PM »

Thursday, April 1.

1 PM EDT (GMT-4 or GMT-5; you figure it out).

type "assembly line concert" into your fave search type thing.

see (and hear) if I'm as much of an asshole as you think I am.

I'm confident I can meet/exceed your expectations.  :glasses9:

this is me, St. Patrick's Day   http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/13388322

well, not all of it - I pop up around the 28:00 mark.

4 songs: she's a lot like you, streets of gold, shame, fall too fast. 1st performance ever of the 1st song, 3rd performance of the 2nd, and I hadn't done the last one in over 3 years.

performance is ragged (to say the least), but there's a fragility to it that I really like, so I can live with it.

hopefully, Ustream is kinder to your computer than it is to mine; it chops out whole sections of these songs whenever I try to watch it. more accurately, "tried." after 2 attempts, it's too irritating for me to put up with. hopefully, when my desktop comes back from repairland (I'm on my laptop right now), I can watch it without getting pissed at the feed. Ustream loves my desktop.

anyway, yeah. enjoy.  :glasses9:

the open mic I'm going to tonight is webcast here:   http://www.ustream.tv/channel/open-mic-with-dan-greene

it's an open mic, so I have no idea what time I'm going on; it starts about 8:30 PM.

I'm in the Eastern Time Zone of the US, btw.

anyway, yeah...

this past Thursday:    http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/14025440

at least one glaring fuck-up in each song. also, some PA problems.

anyway, 4 songs, 2 older bookending the 2 newest:

Venus Unveiled
she's a lot like you
this is your time
Sophia de los Santos

me, last night:   http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/14343251


a few flubs, but fuck it.

my voice is gradually getting back in shape; I need to start singing daily at home and not just every couple of weeks in public.

4 songs; in order:

something for nothing
she's a lot like you
right before your eyes
anywhere else but here

...well, there you have it.

this is me, last night:   http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/14662511

4 songs, in order:

I can't go through this alone (massive fuckup on the 2nd line of the 1st verse, but I managed to pull out of it)
parade rest
my own advice
build your heaven here

slowly but surely getting back into proper performance form. still, I'm glad there aren't any upcoming gigs.

2 clips from last night:

  clip 1:    http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/15724080

4 songs; in order:

not for a minute
rocky world (daniel lanois cover)
wide awake
venus unveiled


clip 2:   http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/15725782

2 songs, in order:

the other me
cities in dust (siouxise and the banshees cover)

more than a couple of screw-ups, but oh well. hadn't sung in a room that severely air-conditioned in a while, and I could feel it f***ing with my voice while I was singing. the a-c is also why I had to adjust my tuning after every song in the 1st clip. this is why i want to get one of those RainSong carbon graphite guitars. the guitar and voice are a bit more settled down in the 2nd one.

well, that's what i got.

I'm going to have to watch it at some point and figure that out, lol!

seriously, I don't remember exactly what went down - there were a lot of people there that he hadn't seen in a long time, and he was running about all evening trying to get a few words in with as many people as possible.

yeah, he's a cool guy...and probably a couple of pounds lighter today from all that running around! dude was scrambling, especially as the evening went on and the early birds had to leave.

well, the Phoenix's Ustream archives have all been deleted/taken down (Dan stopped hosting Thursday nights 2 months ago, so I was expecting this...surprised it took this long), so hope you got something out of it while it lasted.
