Update: Holly Golightly & The Brokeoffs 10/08/07 and changes to show uploads

It was brought to my attention that there were some tracks missing from the FLAC version of the Holly Golightly & The Brokeoffs 10/08/07 post - this has been since corrected.

Following this episode, it has prompted me to make some changes regarding the distribution of recordings. Starting the next time a show is put up, it will be posted in it's an entirety in a zip file, with one or two mp3's for the listener to sample.

Tribute to The Movies (Various Artists) 6/25/11 - The Satellite, Los Angeles, CA.


(Flyer from KogaFoto)

A few weeks ago (yes, I know, it's been awhile since the last post here - blame it on a combination of being sick/procrastination) "Tribute to The Movies" took place at The Satellite in Los Angeles. Several bands and artists came together to pay tribute to the now-defunct Los Angeles-based band The Movies. While our experiences with The Movies have been limited (we saw frontman Timothy James do a solo set over two years ago) they have been described as "legendary in Los Angeles" and "entirely idealized—purported to be larger than life." Regardless, it was a very emotional evening.

Due to the, er, boisterous nature of this event, this was a challenging show to record. Each band/artist was recorded and mastered separately (with fade ins and outs applied between each "set") - thus, sound levels will vary. The beginning of "Truth Knocking" was cut due to one of the night's performers who shall remain nameless whispering in my left ear. Approximately 14 seconds of "Get Your Macho Out" was cut due an audience member telling me, and I quote "The majority of those musicians on stage are completely unprofessional - why aren't you up there with them?" (yes, this really happened)
