DR dropped by to share vids

Wow,
35+ views on my lame little vid and not a single comment. (insert crickets chirping here)
I must suck worse than I thought. :D Oh well, at least my drummer likes me. ;)
I guess I better get to work on some awesome syncopated dance moves. Hope I don't get fired before I get the spin moves down. :hiding:

P.S. To all of you who posted a vid with out using the phrase "bite me" in your intro... YOU ROCK :bassist:

I can totally relate to posting a vid or recording here, only to get crickets...
I am starting to think that the internet is a more polite place than I thought - the people who think "you suck" (referring to me, not to you Smogg - you sound good and I dig the band name) are polite enough not to post it... :D
 
Hey cdaniel,
Looks like you guys get plenty of gigs and you guys sound good but you look a little disconnected from the band,I see that you have a mic to bring you up with the guitarist.Might I suggest that you get inline with your guitarist on the front of the stage and get in synch with them.You have got the music down now give the people something to look at.
I believe that the stage show is 50% of the gig.

Okay FBV in an effort to redeem myself, here's a couple when I/we were not so much sticks in the mud. And I think I only screwed up once ;)

Age and bad knees keep me from doing the high kicks and jumping off of speakers though.

Standard disclaimers on crappy video and sound apply.

Skynyrd


Foghat
 
Holey buckets, Batman! A 10 piece?! That looks really fun. Just wonder how any of you make any money splitting it all 10 ways.

Was that a corporate gig?

Sounds good, looks good...but you only got like one second of camera time. :D
To you and the other guys who think organising that is a nightmare, check out this TWENTY-ONE PIECE BAND that I play with... :eek:

I get about 1 second of camera time on that one, too. I guess it's down to my magic bass player's cloak of invisibility. :D
 
Fair enough,
Here is my average lil' ole country rock band playin' an average lil' ole bar gig. Low rez - low fi, and all.

Tight stuff, fella, I like it! Lovin' that twin leads sound - keys and guitar, I'm guessing?

Febs - your Morgan James vid is well worth watching a few times, for a variety of reasons! ;)

Joe - seen your clips many times now, you just rock hard. Great work.

I neglected this thread over the weekend and have missed some great posts. I'm working through the vids you guys have posted, thanks for sharing. And my apologies for the multiple posts responding to folks in the catch up process.

Have to go to work now, will check out some more later.
 
It seems as though I don't have permission.?.
Where could this be posted that I don't have permission?

:bawl:

I wish I knew what was going on here..?..
Is this a continuation of something I'm not allowed to know about?

Anyway, Not knowing what happened before this thread, and based solely on the videos...(I didnt watch them all though)

I feel that there is not enough Bass. (maybe it just didnt pick up well?..)

I also feel ...(MY OPINION Rather )Is that the guitar tone is waaay to ..."twangy?"
(again maybe the camera...except i read that what we're viewing is how it was there)


Please, can someone let me know what happened before this thread tho? I feel left out.


Other than that, and based solely on these recordings, My OPINION...is that its..okay.

But reading it again, it almost looks like a revenge post as if to say "take that evil
do-ers"

If that is the case, then I'm REALLY curious to see how this started. ;)

You can dig it up through the Google cache ;)
 
DeluxeRed is at it again. For some reason, I thought dude was banned. Oh well, I guess we're a forgiving community. Or we're cruel enough to let someone make a fool out of themselves.

Anyway, I'm glad the thread turned for the better with people posting their performances.

Here's my contribution. Forgive my guitardness, but the hot female singer should make up for some of it.

 
Well, I guess all of us can benefit from constructive criticism. :D

EDIT I guess we should all put our own bands up for perusal here, just so the OP has a fair chance to respond with his own views on what we're doing. Criticism works both ways, after all. I'll be brave, here's mine...



Great clip. Singer is pretty hot, but I'm curious to see what she looked like when she was a nappy headed boy. The surgeon must have been truly gifted.:D

That's some nice 6stringin' Jive!




Patton Oswald on harp?

I love the name of that band. Wish we had a front person that much fun to watch. Would take the pressure off my boringness

I finally got to see some of the DR thread that lead to this. Wow! All I can say is humility is a virtue, try some. I'm glad this turned out to be what it is too. I love seeing all of the others out there doing their thing and having a good time. And it seems like we all know where we stand in the pantheon of talent. Not as good as some and better than others, but there is room for all.

And there are some notable kick ass performances in this thread :bassist:
 
Tight stuff, fella, I like it! Lovin' that twin leads sound - keys and guitar, I'm guessing?

Not sure what the patch is on the guitar to get that sound. He uses some kind of fancy fx processor. I'm guessing harmonizer and/or doubler then, keyboardist splits her keys to get strings and organ and plays chords to hold up the lead. This leaves the drummer and I to hold down the bottom.

We do things like that on quite a few tunes and it really gives the rhythm section a lot of freedom. That is why I really dig the band, the fronts give the drummer and I a lot space to do our thing and are surprisingly easy to work with. No "Rock Star" egos to deal with so the gigs are always fun.

Like I said earlier, we are just a week end warrior band but we try to always have a good time. :D
