The Song Fight Bulletin Board

Hey everyone!

There will be better video from other people later, but I figured I'd post what I have as soon as possible. The audio was so good for Saturday's show that I was able to get watchable (and listenable) video files from my cell phone. I grabbed at least one song from each band of the evening (except for Klownhole, who were still too loud for my phone), and I'm letting them batch-upload to Youtube tonight.

One of them has already finished uploading: Merisan's "Rattlesnake." http://youtu.be/fa3LgE3t0-Q

Ken's "Indie Rock Bottom" is still in progress, but when it's done, it'll go up at this URL: http://youtu.be/WmpWgHn0dH0

BSS's "It Always Gets Better" is still in progress, but when it's done, it'll go up at this URL: http://youtu.be/X_woQlniAZM

The rest I'll post when they're done.

I also took a buttload of photos. Those are all on Google+, and are visible to anyone (you don't even need a Google+ account) at the following addresses:

How could you possibly get listenable audio from the Octothorpe set?

It's listenable from a technical standpoint. From an aesthetic standpoint, the viewers should feel free to make their own judgments.

I took a bunch of photos early Friday night but then kind of forgot to keep going with that stuff. Mostly I did artsy-fartsy long-exposure bullshit though.

Here's a playlist of all the video I shot: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL ... ature=plcp

I have the whole thing , except Frankies set (damn it)
I would like everyone's set list.
They'll start trickling up to You Tube soon.
I'm sure Glenn Case would like set lists too.

Good times everyone!
Nice to see you all!

They are being compiled on the main thread.

Those are awesome artsy shots, Noah.

I filmed video of the entire first night, and as much of the second night as I could before the camera battery ran out.

I did charge the battery on night #2 so I could the entire live fight.

Was there context to this, or do I always look like a drunken fool?

It was just a cherry-picked image from a rapid-fire series of photos taken during your set. Continuous advance mode is fun.

OK, I seriously love that "outsider" picture.

So is this available anywhere? I would really like a recording of mine so I can decide whether to submit, or to try to rerecording it quickly tonight, or whatever. I'm sure I'm not alone in this.

Thanks!

seriously all I can remember from the live fight is thinking "oh dear godwhat have i done" whilst walking from the stage, not remembering quite what i sang or played really, and speaking vaguely to Sam about a carafe-d drink. Because it looked large and celebratory. also trying to solicit votes by doing a flex-y dance. there was drinking, that night.

Seriously, though, the due date is tomorrow. Am I completely missing some important thread or series of PMs or something?

I think you are missing that you should open up your DAW and get to work.

Was audio or video of the live fight posted? Did I miss the place where I can grab mine? Because as much as I meant to record it at home, I also meant to go out for dinner and drink bourbon which, strictly speaking, isn't an excuse just a reality.

Hey everyone!

Videos are trickling up, I get 3 or 4 a day.

Those who gave a set list have priority. They will eventually all get up there.

I haven't done the proper tagging and titling yet. But if you want to sift through, look for glenartrock on youtube.
