Nice show today, Josie C! I really enjoyed it! Can't wait until April to hear you and Cuz at the same time.
on a different but related topic, I was trying to add ram to my music computer and ended up messing something up! so until I get that resolved, I won't be on SJ
But when I do get back on, I bought a laser show on eBay, and I can't wait to use it on SJ. Kind of a one-trick pony, but it should be more interesting than looking at ME!
They say that smoke machines and lasers go well together... hmmmm

In the Electronic Technician's vernacular, whenever a Tech would short something out and become hidden in a cloud, someone would invariably shout: "Oh, Don's just letting the smoke out!"

update: bought a smoke machine and a laser yesterday. Hoping that backlit fog will make a more interesting background than the current black backdrop.
Next show (if I get back up on my SJ broadcast PC) will be dec 14, right after JosieC. Christmas songs.
Dec 15th is dedicated to christmas songs on SJ, for anyone who wants to jump in.
John?
Danny?
Josie Beck?
anybody else?

I saw Danny last night. He did a super job IMHO.
Dad, how will I know when I've become an adult.
When your day is ruined because they rearranged the grocery store.

whatever the problem was for some people, it wasn't on StreetJelly's end because they broadcasted Danny loud and clear. Hangups may have been the combination of high weekend traffic and some ISPs limited bandwidth.
My Review:
Danny was AWESOME! His years in front of an audience really showed... he made funny comments between songs, acknowledged people in the audience, showed appreciation for the owners of SJ and never missed a lick as he played and sang a variety of Christmas songs. The audience clearly liked his show, and understandable so.
His BIAB created tracks were very well done, and his tracks, vocals and guitar were very well balanced (good mix!)
Plus, he used his new guitar!
I only wish he (or me or somebody) would have posted his gig here in advance... I think it was only posted on the SJ lineup. To my knowledge, Mario, Don Gaynor and I were the only PG forum members in the audience.
I'm looking forward to hearing more of Danny on SJ... They're having an all-day Christmas song event on the 15th, and it wouldn't surprise me if Danny shows up for that.

Has anyone been able to see Danny? It just "spins" for me... regarding the StreetJelly "spin": Once that happens, the video will not come back automatically... you have to keep clicking on the PLAY arrow in order to restore the video. Even if the problem is resolved and everybody else is watching the performance, if you still have the "spinner" on your screen, you still need to CLICK in order to restore the video stream. (took me FOREVER to figure this out!) You can usually tell if its working for others because of the comments in the chat box. Somebody will usually say something like "He's back!"

a note to the forum crowd :
In spite of the fact that SJ touts itself as a busking site where most performers are simply playing an instrument while singing, I've noticed that any performer who plays along with backing tracks is generally received with real enthusiasm.
Audiences just LOVE JosieC and Kevin Emmrich... and last night's positive response to Danny confirms my opinion that just about any of us who make and use trax would be a good fit for that venue.
I strongly encourage other BIABbers to give it a try. Since we can't post covers here, Its a good way to show off the cover songs you created with PGMusic products

one more thought about Danny's show:
SJ has an undeniable "in crowd". Anytime somebody in the inner circle performs, they suck the audience out of every other show that might be on at the same time.
But last night I saw something for the first time... Danny played at the same time as somebody in the inner circle, and one by one, I saw names of people who were in the other show popping up in Danny's show. That NEVER happens! (well, until Danny)
Apparently they were checking out the other shows and Danny's was compelling enough to draw away the devoted followers of the house band. That's no small accomplishment!
Good job Danny! I see you're already destined for a spot in the inner circle.

I already picked a bone with Danny. Why is he playing in the middle of the night? If I recollect, Danny said he was only doing "a 30 minute equipment check". I expect to hear a ho bunch mo oota him on SJ. Danny is always loyal to his BB friends by tuning in and supporting them. The sort of loyalty that everyone needs and appreciates. You go, Danny C!

Now that "inner circle" thing has always scared me Pat, just kidding I have a good feel for what you are referencing here. Thanks for the kind words. Later,

Don,
Thanks for tuning in last night and just FYI there were a few more of our forum friends there that did not participate in the chat. And did so as a favor to me in an effort to get some additional critique from outside of the aforementioned "inner circle".
And as I knew they would, they came through in top notch fashion by offering me some very valuable insight on what I can do to make my future shows a bit more professional.
While they remain nameless but I am very grateful for their insight.
Later,

There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4).

And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!
Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library.
