Not to knock this particular vid, good promo, but to knock video editors in general, and directors with multicams who apparently insist on calling the ECU of the bass player while the tenor sax solo is going on, etc. They do so good with sports...

Yeah... I admit I was a little disappointed with that aspect of the video editing. The music wasn't from the gig, it was from a recording we did last year. I can only assume the audio recording from the night wasn't of sufficient standard to be used for the promo.

The editor is actually one of my fellow 'bone players (though he wasn't there that night). He did a nice job on the creative side but by not using the audio from the night it made it impossible to sync anything.

I haven't heard the raw recording of the night so I can't comment on its quality.

If you're interested in some of our recording from last year, 4 numbers can be found here:

They're up under our old name - we got gazumped on the name by a group who trade marked it out from under us frown - So we changed the last word and ended up making it more relevant anyway - playing in this band really is "therapy" for most of us wink
