Waxeater/JabberJosh

Waxeater/JabberJosh
Replay Lounge
Notes:
You have the show on January 21 of this year to thank for making me get off my ass and post these. That day JabberJosh played The Replay with a band called Bolth, Bolth includes members of Waxeater, thus reminded me that I had recorded Waxeater and JabberJosh playing a show together 6 months ago. Well, after revisiting some of those recordings, I decided I need to revisit this blog. I'm pretty happy all and all with these recordings. As always, they peaked a bit, and you can hear at parts of the show that the mic in my laptop is starting to go downhill (it sound like wind in the background, and is mainly on the JabberJosh set).

JabberJosh: The band consists of two brothers Sam and Will Gunnerson, and after seeing them play together for so long, I swear those two can read each others minds. Sam always has the energy of ten people while on stage, thrashing everywhere, yet sill playing and sing as if that's all he was born to do. Will is one of the (if not the) solidest, heaviest hitters in town. That kids is always on point, and allot of fun to watch play. I was also running sound that night and it was the first time I put slap-back on Sam's vocals, I love how he sound will that little addition.

Waxeater: This set I really liked. I had not heard them before this beautiful June night. As I expect of any band that plays with JabberJosh; they were damn good. Waxeater had awesome energy on stage and a good sense of humor. I really hope I get to catch them again sometime soon.

Hope For A Golden Summer

March 24, 2009
Hope For A Golden Summer / Drakkar Sauna
Love Garden Records
Notes:
I obviously have not updated this in a long time. There is two good reasons for me allowing this to happen. One: I got a day job awhile back and that kind of ate up allot of the free time I had when I started this blog. Two: The mic in my MacBook died. Making it hard for me to record bands, beings I had done all these recordings with the internal mic on the MacBook.
Well to the point. I still have a bunch of recordings I did a while back, and I am
now going to try to take the time, over the next few weeks, to mix and post these old recordings.

Now for the show at hand; I unfortunately was having some trouble with my laptop that evening, I did record Drakkar Sauna but it did not turn out at all, so I have chosen leave it off this post altogether. Hope For A Golden Summer was amazing that evening though, and I was at least able to capture the beginning of their set. What I have here is the first 9 mins. of what they played. It's only two songs, but I'm really stoked that I could get at least that much. Also between the songs they pay the most adorable complement to the youngest member of the audience. I hope you enjoy this, and expect my next post shortly featuring Waxeater and Jabber Josh from a show I was able to record in June of last year.
