CACTUS MOON BLOG-CAST TYPE THING.
May 21st 2009.
Instead of going into long explanations and excuses I have decided to just add new recordings to the player on the title page and write a short post here about them.
So, a few days ago I added a couple of recordings done at a rehearsal here on 13th May - All I Do and Delilah. Both were done from a simple mic setup - less than 8 channels and mixed quickly the next day.
Then yesterday I added a short excerpt from a gig we did Saturday 16th at the Millstone in Macclesfield. For Littlewing we were joined by James Ferguson late of local band Veer - it was a completely off the cuff jam and James did a stunning job - thanks James! This is followed by a 10 minute plus version of Worried Down With The Blues. This was a simple 2 pzm into zoom H4 recording.
ps We welcome your comments our the guest book!!
Blog-Cast 15th, January, 2009.
It has been a while since the last Blog-Cast Type-Thing. We have been having some time off over Christmas and the New Year so there hasn`t really been anything to post. We`re now beginning to make a few moves towards playing again. We have had one rehearsal and last night we played at Cananlside Community Radio on Matt Isaac`s Rock Diversity show - tonight ably co-wrangled by Chris Newton. It was great fun - apart from my amp playing up!! The previous times we have been to CCR we have just played acoustic guitars but this time we decided that we would take in baby combos and try scaled down electric versions of the songs - although I did end up playing acoustic for the first couple of songs due to the aforementioned amp troubles. Dave wasn`t able to make it due to transport difficulties so we were drummer-less but did our best to cope.
Anyway we recorded what happened on the H4 so here are a couple of links to two of the tracks we played last night.
