Elton John indeed!

Another frenzy drumcam (with a remixed track and downloadable mp3). Feel free to stop by my channel and subscribe.

Reist, your drumcams are really cool, but I wish you could get a better angle. Have you tried experimenting with overhead?

My drums and computer/webcam are pretty much crammed into a tiny room, so I can't do much about the video situation ... unless I want to bust out a video camera and tripod, which is a bit excessive for the low budget, low effort approach I'm going for.

I managed to record a decent acoustic version of my "Back from Juvie" in my bedroom last night.

Dude, I dig it. Are you a Barenaked Ladies fan?

Very.

Hey, remember when I said in a couple reviews that something about your songs make me feel like I'm hanging out in your living room late at night listening to you play a song you just wrote (and I mean that in a really, really good way)? Well it was really cool to actually see what that would look like after all this time. Thanks for putting these up.

Another frenzy drumcam. Once again, it's a remixed track with bass and plenty of tweaking.

It's not You Tube, but Vimeo rather.

Videos will trickle in over the weekend. I'm about 9 down out of 90.

Song Fight Live 2009 Spokane!

I wrote a new song a few nights ago and recorded it yesterday. After a little mixing, I think it's at least ready for youtube. I hope you guys like it - there's a download link on the youtube page.

Reist: that's pretty damn awesome. I wish I could play drums. You've done a very nice job of mic placement on the kit and mixing. Sounds great.

Do you always do your drums in one take for the recordings?

Thanks man, it's nice of you to say so. Switching my snare mic to an sm57 on the last few songs seemed to really help with the drum sound a lot.

Generic wrote:Do you always do your drums in one take for the recordings?

Yeah, unless there's a massive break between drumming sections and I screw up hardcore in the second part. It just seems easier for mixing and more true to life to do it in one take.

A really short tune I threw together before packing for my trip. I have no snare head (I got it signed by Mike Portnoy ), so I went for a tom-heavy beat on this one. I hope you like.

I think someone requested I put up a video of me singing, so here's me recording lead vox and rhythm guitar for umm's SF entry this week.

ps - I'm starting to realize why artists are so self-conscious about how they appear on stage. I look like a douchebag when I hit those falsetto notes.

Thinking I might not have mentioned this on the Songfight boards. If I did? My apologies for the redundant nature of this post.

Been trying to record a live acoustic performance a day, and I've been uploading the results to YouTube. Almost 60 videos as I type these words. Possibly much more by the time you read this.

Sounds like something you would enjoy? Well, keep in mind that I also talk a lot in the videos, and I'm a marginal guitarist.

Still sounds interesting? Well, all right then!

I was wondering why the GlennCase Youtube channel wasn't posting any videos lately. You gotta tell us this stuff, man!

subscribed. I'm a youtube junkie, so I'm sure I'll watch them all, haha.
