Blogging live at the gig with my iphone

Oh my god the opening band started with a Motley Crue song and now they’re playing Sweet Child of Mine by Guns and Roses. OMFG they’re playing Jackyl now.

Kill me

Oh now I find out we have no bass player. We’re going to try and get out of this gig and see if the 3rd band will just play longer. I’d rather go home and eat rice crispy treats anyway.

Benefit gig for a kid injured by a bomb

August 30th, 2008

I’m doing a benefit gig tonight. The beneficiary is this local kid who was injured when an illegal bomb his neighbor was building exploded. Nice.

I hope we can raise some bucks to help this kid with his medical bills.

New Autotune Evo - Now even the most horrid vocalists can be “in tune”

August 19th, 2008

Man have you listened to today’s hip hop and top 40? Every damn artist has that “robotic Cher Autotune” sound. Good news, there’s a new version of Autotune.

Antares Autotune EVO

With even more features like graphic representation of the notes (like Melodyne), vocalists who suck can now suck less.

Soon somebody will come out with a plugin which not only tunes the vocals, it writes the lyrics and performs them. Then the need for a vocalist will be eliminated. Since everyone lipsyncs these days anyway, they could just find the best looking “dancer” they can and stick them on stage to fake their parts.
