Live @ Rehearsal Video Concert – November 8th, 2016

November 10, 2016 by krisis

[Patreon-Nov16-Post-Bug][/Patreon-Nov16-Post-Bug]Good news and bad news about this week’s Live @ Rehearsal broadcast from my Facebook page.

Good news: I figured out how to do it with soundboard quality audio and, most importantly when it comes to my personal dynamic range, compression.

Bad news: I chose Tuesday night to stream, and the election internet traffic (combined with some router issues) slowed the broadcast to a crawl at points. So, this isn’t too fun to watch, but it’s a solid listen!

Setlist: Dirigible, My Heart (written by long-time blog buddy Jett Superior), Are You, End With Me, Curves Sketched In Letters, Regenerate, Ruiner, Message

Performance Notes:

Just a few this week, since I’m already focused on improving the audio and video quality for next time.

This is one of my first live runs through “Dirigible,” a deeply weird song that is what happens when I try to write like Gina does for Arcati Crisis. It’s about hot-air ballooning over a world covered in water, maybe figuratively or maybe literally. It’s still a little shaky, but I’m getting close to it being able to hold its own.

It’s also maybe my first internet play-through of “Message,” a song that I love and that we briefly worked up for the band. It’s actually maybe written by Madonna, but in a dream, so you can’t possibly serve me with a DMCA notice about it. I’ll write a better story about it when I have a better video of it, but you can hear it all in the recording. I have some timing issues playing it here without the band, but I think the vocal is pretty strong.

“My Heart” and “Are You” are both returned from many years on ice, although I play the former a lot just because it’s fun to sing. “End With Me” and “Curves Sketched In Letters” are, of course, my twin songs from Eric Smith’s Textual Healing, which have become setlist staples. There’s another song from those writing sessions I’ve never played before – perhaps it will make an appearance soon!
Also? I don’t ever want to play “Regenerate” without compression again. What a difference it makes on a song like that that goes from my lower chest range up to a belt at the top of my mixed voice.
