I will probably regret posting this, but anyway. Recorded about a year ago. Excuses: sorry, these are typical, corny function band songs at a typical function, and, tempos were somewhat unstable or racy on my part, lol. Something I'm always working on and which I think has improved even over the last few weeks [img]redface.gif[/img] I've cut bits out since it was too large a file, and it's now 33mb for about 2mins:38secs if you feel like D/L it. I think the spielberg intro is the best bit [img]tongue.gif[/img]

That looks like some fun stuff their! Are you the house band for the club or what ever it is?
-
Oh no, it was in a marquee I think, just a corporate function.
-
Nice stuff Rudy and a well edited little video too..... so seeing as I'm London, are you gonna pass my number on to your singer then?!?!
Available for deps etc etc....!!!

Very nice, I would have like to have seen/heard more. Singer sounds/looks good too.

Dave,
those are actually 8 and 10 and 15 power depth toms. I've been meaning to start using 10 and 12 on top, and I will, just need to get an emperor for the 12. The mapex is a 12" soprano maple black panther, and I've had it for a few years. I love it since it's fast and funky, got a nice pop to it, but, I'm leaning towards getting something else a little louder, maybe one of the gadd signatures.
We've got different chick singers now, even more tasty [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Nice job Rudy! Is this the band Gabriel will be playing with?
-
Hi roy,
yep, it is. That's him playing percussion on the clip.
-
Do you have any more videos of your <s>lead singers having lesbian sex</s> band playing?
Hey, I'm still a teenager so I'm allowed to say these things. HAHAHAH!
Rudy - the boy can sure groove! [img]cool.gif[/img]
And you kit sounds amazing! Do you know what the overhead mics are btw?
-
LOL. I'l see what I can arrange. I'm a lesbian actually, I love women. [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
Erm, I think those overheads were from our AKG drum mic package with the D112 bass drum mic, clip on tom mics, and my sm57 snare mic.
-
Rudy, you sound great and you're playing my favorite drums. [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img] nice.
-
Back Off Benny & neber_dude, I saw them first! [img]wink.gif[/img]
-
These are the 2 current girls. I particularly like the blonde, 5 from the right, bottom row. Pity she's so much younger and goes for models. [img]frown.gif[/img] But we have a good laugh [img]smile.gif[/img]

Great camera and editing work. Very clear viewing. This really looks like the corporate gig...love it! Next best thing is a corporate cruise ship gig.
-
Thanks guys. Well, yes, it would have been nice if there was more to see of the better songs, but the songs that were video'd, well, you really didn't wanna see 'sex bomb' I can assure you, lol.
Dazzler, I have to admit I haven't depped one out yet since it's my only bread and butter gig at the moment, BUT, I'm sure I can get you on a dep at some point. PM me and lemme have your phone number. Also, I'm gonna reserve a table if I can for ronnies at the end of the month, for weckl. So, if you're up for that, we can actually meet.

Hot lead/backup singers. Gotta love a treat for the eyes, as well as for the eyes/soul.
Rudy, you've got a nice Recording custom set. Looks like a 20" bass drum, with the larger toms, ala Steve Gadd w/ James Taylor? Is that a Mapex Snare you're playing as well? How do you like it?
Sounds good..
-
Rudy, I'm only seeing about 10 seconds of the actual performance before the clip stops. Am I doing something wrong?
-
Not sure plaid. I don't know if your windows media player is just opening and loading the file. Maybe right click and save instead?
-
Yep , cuts out on me too! Just about the time the Elvis impersonator starts singing.
I actually thought the blonde looked like Will Lee singing back up. Sorry if that was crude but that was my first impression.
What program did you use to make this? I have a mac and when I download it, it's a quicktime file.
I like the intro- going directly into the singing. It's like a scene out of a movie. Your drums sound good from the little I heard. Sounds like a really nice bass player too!
-
Here's what you do:
Right Click and Save Target to your local hard drive, BUT change the file name from .mpg to .zip and then your computer uncompress the 3 files.
Hope that helps!
-
Intersting ladanny. I actually zipped 3 mpgs and renamed the zip to mpg to make it one clip. If reversing that works, cool.
-
Rudy, I had the same problem as Blake... but for what I could hear, I enjoyed yor playing, your sound, and your groove.
Good job [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]

Thanks guys.
Roy, I played a gig with gabriel last night. He remembers you and sends his best regards to you. [img]smile.gif[/img]
I was talking to him about thomas lang, and interestingly, gabriel told me that he got thomas the meinl endorsement since gabriel was already endorsed with meinl. Also,( and this is not gabriel boasting, he's just not like that as I'm sure you know), but he told me that while he was playing a left foot clave thing whilst playing on top, thomas was watching and was really impressed with the idea. So gabby got him into that whole concept. Pretty cool, eh!
