EBS_freak Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Always loved that song, nice authentic sound too. Nice to see some additional angles on the go too. Always lifts stuff up. How have you miced up the drums? Sounds like a kick and overhead but unless I'm being blind I can't see it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was using my Sire V7 - now I use a Sandberg California II VM4S mostly. I still have the Sire - but use it my other band as it is permanently tuned down to suit the vocalist Drums currently have two mics: kick and another more ambient. The drummer has just invested in two condenser pencil mics to position as overheads. We hope to get them included in the mix this coming weekend.

Muzz Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Promo from a little while ago, shot at a posh Do in Cheshire, hence the Sparkly Jackets...sound is captured live, then remixed...and who says you can't play modern dance music on a Fenderbird? 😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to good musicians and a singer who can actually do a decent Kurt impression (a very rare thing). 👏🏻👏🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_bass5 Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 This is pants on all fronts, but I don’t often have anything to post. To quote REM, that’s me in the corner 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AScheck9 Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 low_qual_HD 720p_MEDIUM_FR30.mp4 Fun bank holiday gig. Not sorted out the proper videos yet nor grabbed the audio from the mixer, but here's a quick phone clip. Great crowd, penultimate song.

Paddy777 Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Just got the first song of 5 we filmed for our promo video at The Arc theatre in Stockton. It’s a Nile Rodgers tribute called “Freak Out” - very good fun on bass! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vantagepointrocks Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Having a go at track, I Think We're Alone Now, at the Dreadnought in Bathgate, with my covers band, Easily Distracted. We were a last minute replacement for a band that pulled out, and played to practically no-one, well the other band, bar staff, sound guy and a couple of punters were there. But it was still enjoyable to be back on stage as it was my first gig of 2023. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't spend any time there as I had my Fiance looking after herself and our dog knocking about in Manchester so I sort of ran into the venue, played, then ran back out again. Heard it was a bit stressful with nowhere to sit and no re-admission. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heard it was a bit stressful with nowhere to sit and no re-admission. Yeah that was a really frustrating part of it. With hardly any seating and no re-admission, I had to enter the venue late afternoon-ish as I can't stand up for 10 hours 3 days on the trot, so missed quite a few bands I wanted to see. Still, a banging line-up and enjoyed myself - picked up the HV top at merch too! Anyway, enjoy the shows you've got coming up and will hopefully see you in 2024 again.
