Here’s a review of the Etymotic Research 6i Isolation earphones. These are noise cancelling phones that cut out the outside world. These could be great for musicians instead of lugging big monitors and amps to the gig.
I couldn’t have said it better myself.
The band is playing a “cinco de mayo” gig tonight. A report will follow.
I just answered the phone 5 minutes ago:
Caller: “Yeah is this the video production company?”
Me: “Uh no I do audio recording”
Caller: “I’ve got this rap show this weekend and I need a camera crew”
Me: “Well I don’t do video. Can I give you the number of a place that does?”
Caller: “So you don’t do video?”
Me: “No. Can I give you the number of a company that does do video”
Caller: “Can you have them call me?”
Me: “Well sir, I’d rather give you their number and have you call them at your convenience”
Caller: “I don’t wanna do this call around shit. Besides I don’t have a pencil”
Caller hangs up.
In my previous post I reviewed 3 bands I just saw recently including American Head Charge. In trying to locate their web site to post the link a ran into this article.
AHC’s guitar player Bryan Ottoson was found dead in his bunk inside the band’s tour bus. The cause of death is an overdose of prescription drugs combined with alcohol.
We just saw this guy playing live a few weeks ago. Man what bad news.
