WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO NOW?

Sounds fun, looks like a great day and nice place to play!  But hey, what’s that funny looking instrument you are playing, the strings are so skinny!

Alain Caron

In the Alan Caron video, the drummer knocked a cymbal off its stand, and the guitar player had to put it back on.  Kind of a light moment.

That's too funny!
Someone needs top explain to him what those wingnuts are for, or he needs a better roadie..........

[David Houck]

Well if the guitar player's doing the work, I'm guessing there's no roadie.

Good point, Dave.

That was pretty cool... definitely makes you move. Not sure I understood what sounds were coming from which instrument though! What was up with drumming on the back of the Hammond? Reaching inside it? I need to watch on a bigger screen maybe.

Galvez/Vera/Schmitt Project - Cinetico (this is the same drummer as in the Alain Caron video above)

Easy - the drum sounds are coming from the drums, the bass sounds are coming from the bass, the B3 sounds are coming from the B3, and everything else is coming from the Hohner synth on top of the B3 (which is what he reaches into - don't ask me why on that one, though).

I didn't notice the drumming on the back of the Hammond, but it wouldn't shock me; I used to do sound for a lounge band where every night the drummer would take a solo on "Love To Hear Percussion" where he'd come out from behind his kit & beat on everything in sight; amps, monitors, mic stands, the guitarist's strings, you name it (but , alas, the frontman's head.....).  The traveling salesmen ate it up.

GVS Project was great. Loved it.  Did I blink and miss the bass player?

Was going to edit my last post but since you replied to it already.... 

The Dregs. Video is terrible but the audio is intact.

... and everything else is coming from the Hohner synth on top of the B3  ...

Pretty sure that's a venerable  good old Clavinet - not exactly a synthesizer (but most Stevie Wonder grooves that come to mind ...)

[cozmik_cowboy]

I thought it might be, Adriaan - but, as the last time I actually saw a Clavinet was when I left the service of Holidaze, Featuring Doc & Linda Holiday*, in March or 1980, I didn't want to label it so when unsure.

*If that name makes you suspect it might have been a horrible, soul-sucking gig (and your suspicion would no doubt become firmer if I were to mention that it was 6 sets a night, 6 nights a week on the Midwest hotel lounge circuit), you are most astute.  But hey - it was a gig.
