Thanks!!!
 
Tonight's is a bit late for those of us on the East coast, but Friday and Saturday look good.  May be snowed in anyway, so hoping the power just stays on.

Tom:
 
Always good to see you hanging out around here.  Thanks for the head's up.  I've been so busy at work that, somehow, I missed that this was happening.  Saw your post last night, went downstairs to my home studio, plugged the ipad into the PA, strapped on Woody and actually played along LIVE with the band!  Big fun!!!!  I think I'll be sitting in with them again tonight!
 
Bill, tgo

Hey Bill - I've been keeping an eye peeled for you in the crowd, thought you might be at Sweetwater.  
 
I've enjoyed the workout John K is giving his custom Orion (or is it a custom Further with an Orion body?). Anyone interested in hearing the variety of tonal possibilities of an Alembic guitar should really check out these web casts -- or a recent Furthur recording.
 
Peace
Tom

Beautiful close up shots of John's guitar!
 
The sound and video are great; and the band is playing well.

Great concert! Only problem I had was a very weird echo I got with the vocals when I tried to run it from my computer through the stereo. Ended up being thankful I recently splurged and purchased a set of really nice Westone Earbuds.  No problems with the bugs running directly from the computer.

I was thinking the vocal echo was intentional; I only noticed it in a few places, where it seemed to fit.  It sounded great through my stereo; especially John's guitar.  Wow is that a nice guitar.

Dave:
 
I thought it was intentional too and listened to the first several songs that way.  After 3 songs, however, I started to get a bit suspicious. Then I plugged the earbuds directly in to my computer and it mysteriously vanished. It was weird, however, that the drums, bass, keyboards, and guitar all sounded fine. There were some songs where John K was singing and at times his lips appeared to synch with the echo.  But no one else in the band was singing. At other times, there was an echo to his singing (and no I wasn't on anything last night).

I was hoping to watch again tonight, but was getting too many connections errors on Sweetwater's site.  But just now finally got on.  Hope it stays up.
