Show last night was alright...

I was really disappointed with Craig's stage presence...I thought for sure at any given time he was going to just tip over and die from being to fucked up on drugs...he looked like a zombie up there...or some scared Mike Judd character from Beavis And Butthead...Jack and Pat were fun to watch but Craig was just terrible. he was missing notes, singing off key when him and Jack would both sing the same parts...I don't know, I'm hoping his behavior/condition was just a one-off because I don't know how much longer they'll be on the road if he's doing that every night...

Anyways, I taped the whole show...The audio is a little muddy...lots of pops on the kickdrum. If anyone knows how to clean up audio and wants to give it a try, you're more than welcome to. It was recorded on a flipcam's built in microphone. I just did it for shits, I'm not any sort of professional taper or anything...here are 2 clips from the show if anyone cares:

Hey, it's just a fucking record. Chill.

Watched the first video, unfortunately that noise you hear is the mic of your camera getting overloaded. There's not really a fix for that since the audio is blown out off the charts. The mix didn't sound very good either, the drum set was overpowering everything, especially the vocals. Nice video though if you could find audio to sync to it.

Ok, I just watched the first 45 or so seconds of the first video and can tell you: rest assured, Craig was having an OFF night! He's always a zombie, but he always sings in key...hell, his guitar was even out of tune! He must be sick! I know there is a bunch of nasty flu-like shiz goin' around here in Cincy and they certainly spent time with friends when they were here the other day. He probably caught something. It'll pass. (just don't go expecting to see him look like a ball of energy, that NEVER happens)

If I ever get off my ass I'll upload my videos from Mad Hatter...They aren't very great due to my being distracted so many times and not hitting the record button in time...but we'll see. :/

and you fought the cold
there's nobody with you

Hmmm. Hope he's feeling better by Tuesday. Multiple babysitters employed. The stakes are high.

I have a black copy... I'd love to trade for a color version.
Oh and on Craig....he's so boring. I can't stand it. That's the one reason I think they'll never make it to be too big, just because he has no stage presence at all. I love the band and all, but I kinda think he drags down the band, at least energy wise.

I would consider buying another one if I could get my hands on a clear one. With my luck, I would end up with another blue one. lolz.
