Awsome Beatles
Just a wee note to say that I think the Beatles were pretty awesome. When you look at the volume of music they produced, how well much of it is produced, how good so much of it is, and how they held it together for so long, it's just boggling.
Why do I say this?
At rehersal on Sunday we covered eight Beatles songs for the first time, and have them at the point where we're willing to give them a go live. That's pretty amazing, especially when you realise that they are all pretty distinct from each other. Somehow, most of them just seem to roll along once they get going, which isn't just familiarity with them, but inherent within the artform itself.
Weird Alien Lands
When I walked into rehersal room on Sunday I noticed a huge alien had landed. It was about ten feet tall and had four arms and three feet. It had lots of chords and wires, and looked metallically menacing. What was it?
It was a lighting set up Steve has acquired, complete with sequencing device, four major coloured spots and a psychedelic swirling backdrop projector. All on the one unit. Which looks like an alien. Very cool, will grab a photo of it sometime soon...
