Partially Naked Self-Examination Music Blog, Week 24

June 14, 2010 by Mark Linsenmayer Leave a Comment

My computer no longer boots and is in the shop, which means I'm on my wife's MacBook, which means it's time for more camcorder youtube uploads! Here's a version of "Love Is the Problem:" http://www.youtube.com/user/MLinsenmayer#p/a/u/0/e0LblloTUnc

We (my band New People) recently played a very big show at Madison's Brat Fest, on the "Quench Gum" stage, which I honored by inadvertently saying "quench" instead of "clench" during two different songs. The stage was huge, the sound was great, and we brought in a laptop to record the sound right from the board and my camcorder was set up in a great spot also next to the soundboard, away from chatty people.

However, we had not managed to get anyone not on stage to help us make sure that these things were working, so the sound didn't record at all on the laptop, and the video was poorly framed, with our guitarist and drummer very small in the middle of the screen and me entirely off screen.

So, what I've posted is not that, but instead a couple of tunes from a show last August, our final outing with our drummer Julian, who by then had gotten mighty tight. On the whole, this was one of our best played shows, though the newer songs are stronger now that we spent time recording them (some rough mixes should be available for my posting w/in a couple of weeks). The video is pretty good quality, with all three of us actually visible and all the parts audible (though the bass is a bit low, at least where I'm listening to it). It was a great venue, but no alcohol, so our turnout (on a Friday night, no less) was pretty poor, and I've not bugged them for another show.

I've also posted there a great newer one of Matt Ackerman's called "Lucky" (http://www.youtube.com/user/MLinsenmayer#p/a/u/1/qh3dByWYw9E). I'll likely upload some more tracks from that show over the next few days; so check back to the channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/MLinsenmayer.

About The Partially Examined Life

The Partially Examined Life is a philosophy podcast by some guys who were at one point set on doing philosophy for a living but then thought better of it. Each episode, we pick a text and chat about it with some balance between insight and flippancy. You don’t have to know any philosophy, or even to have read the text we’re talking about to (mostly) follow and (hopefully) enjoy the discussion

Become a PEL Citizen!

As a PEL Citizen, you’ll have access to a private social community of philosophers, thinkers, and other partial examiners where you can join or initiate discussion groups dedicated to particular readings, participate in lively forums, arrange online meet-ups for impromptu seminars, and more. PEL Citizens also have free access to podcast transcripts, guided readings, episode guides, PEL music, and other citizen-exclusive material. Click here to join.
