Wake :: a live coffee house gig
- Thread starter James Hart
- Start date
You know I'm in OKlahoma right? We're always way behind ya'll out on the coasts!!James Hart said:you know this thread is like 10 days old right
(actually I just saw the thread for the first time.... again... we're slow out here..)
Thanks for the listen
James! That band is rockin'! Being a big garbage music person that I am, I found this music very likeable! Good change from what I'm used to listening to (80s metal, 90s nu metal etc).
As I told ya on the IMs, to me, I think you sound great enough without the drummer, though they are nice to have around...but metronomes work just as well...
Nah, but really, I dig the music alot. Keep it coming too! I know you have about a million more MP3s you're not sharing with it break them out, everyone here would love them! *cough* wake-11-last_song.mp3 *cough*

Thanks Ray! Vic and did our first gig on the air @ Montclair State Univ. I think 3 people heard us
Here's my take.
First, I love the name... since it seems to be stolen from the band I was in for the last 2 1/2 years... (just kidding... but very similar to "mercys wake"..)
I really dig the lyrical content. The tunes are good, the bass sounds awesome. I got bored easily... but I do that with just about anything. So don't take it as a strike against ya'll. I would actually listen to your tunes on purpose... so I must liek them.

Thanks Henry!
We had a drummer actually show up for an audition tonight

I brought my computer and plugged an SM58 into the line in. I recorded 3 tunes that the drummer had worked on this week.
I'm hoping he sticks around!

Two words: Radio hit.
This song has just become 10X more listenable (not that it was unlistenable before). It's amazing what adding drums does.
I can almost hear it on K-ROCK right now.... hmmmm....
Sean
P.S. Keep that drummer!!!
I'm blushing 
you see I'm blushing right?!
Thanks again Sean! Like I said, I've been in bands forever... this is the first band that *I* really dig. I think Vic is very sellable

Also, which Benavente did you use on this recording? And did you play through your Schroeder? Your tone is nice and fat, yet defined.

Thanks, I'm digging the tone I've been getting with my latest setup.
it's the fretless 6 (I almost never touch the other) wearing SIT PowerFlats it's got one big dual coil in the P sweet spot. I run the onboard about flat with the mid and bass just a hair over the center notch. My Yamaha Pre has treble=7, mid=6, bass=4.5 and the parametric just barely boosted (level=1.5 and 2/3 to the narrower picture on "Q" knob) @ 100hz
The Schroeder is a 1210 with the tweeter @ 1/2
here is track 2 of the audition Link Removed
it's a bit train wrecked
