Title: Taping my first show tonight
Post by: firebaugh on August 18, 2007, 06:27:28 PM
I think I've get everything set.  I built a NOS bar and painted it.  I've got a backup SD card if there's an issue.
I've got 4 fully charged 2500mah Energizer bats.  I've got my monitor headphones in my bag.
I've got money for beer and cigars.  I think I'm good.  ;D

The show was great.  I started to feel bad part way through the third band and ended up leaving before they finished their set.  I guess I've got a cold, I've been running fever.  I'm just now listening to the wav files and they sound fantastic.  I've got to go pick up my kids from my Mom in a little bit and when I get back I'll upload a song from each of the bands that played.

OK, here goes.  I recorded at 24/48 with my level set at 17.  These wavs are 16/48.  I seem to have missed a step so I'll be going back now to get these to 16/44.1.

I lsitened to the Mudd Piggs track.  Certainly not my kind of music, but your recording came out pretty good.

Thanks, I meant to put the genre next to the tracks but I forgot so I just went back and edited the post.  The Unnaturals are old school surf rock a la Ventures and The Bills call themselves Horror Surf.  They're involved with a local horror movie company called Terror Optics and they've played on a number of their sound tracks.  The Mudd Piggs are hard rock along the lines of AC/DC, Kiss, Cheap Trick etc.

Well, I like AC/DC....... ;D  First thing that came to my mind was Rob Zombie, for some reason.

Well I burned a copy of the show and brought it to Jenn and Mark from The Unnaturals.  Jenn put it in her car stereo and she couldn't believe all the details that it captured.  She told me I could tape them any time they play.  She also books bands around New Orleans so she's going to help get me in touch with the right people at every show she books if I can make it there and want to tape the show.
