Switch hitter Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 at the local open mic night the big albany news paper Times Union did a nice little video of the place. Im in the video a bunch of times playing bass. Just click on the Muddy Cup open mic video. Not really news worthy but I thought it was cool. Plus, unlike my gig photos, you can actually see my face this time!! Heres the link: http://timesunion.com/multimedia/video/artscam_muddycup.asp P.S. Around 2:19 you see a clip of me playing and almost falling flat on my face. dunno why they put that in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil W Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Neat! That falling off the chair at the end of the phrase sure adds something to the drama of the music . . like - what I played was so hot it just made me fall over. . . I guess it was a quiet news night in Albany - looks like a neat place! http://philwbass.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switch hitter Posted November 27, 2008 Author Share Posted November 27, 2008 actually the biggest laugh came from them talking about intruductory artists that know only 2 chords, then they show me. But yeah, open mics Im noticed have been written off as a place for singer songwriter wannabe's to hang out. But there are actually some REALLY good and diverse tallent. Like the guy on the Piano at the end, he is phenominal. Oh yeah, and we did have a belly dancer come twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
