L5Larry Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I'm really not very good, or care, about self promotion, but.... This is going to be a GREAT concert. So... for any jazz fans, Gibson fans, or anybody in the St. Louis region that would like to have a really nice night on the town with some great music, in a world renown venue....

That sounds awesome - would be well worth it I'm sure, nothing like a live jazz show - though I'm guessing cigars are out these days. PS given how you titled the thread, I must disagree with your opening statement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btoth76 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Hello! Wish I could be there. Do You have any plans/possibility to record the event? It would be great to see/hear it. Enjoy playing! :) Best wishes... Bence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autumn Light&Shade Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 This sounds like a great night out I agree with Bence, any chance of a recording of this concert? Hope you have a fantastic time :) Kind regards, Emma :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. C.O. Jones Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Another one on the "wrong" side of the pond here. Would be great to see a video of it. Greetz! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidblast Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 a bit of a commute from Central Mass, I am not a betting man, but in this instance, I bet you guys will kill it. Break a leg Larry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rct Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I would not mind a short trek out 70 to St. Louis at all, but I am leaving for HarryPotterWorld in Orlando tomorrow, so I will have to pass. I know you will kill that thang! rct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deeman Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Come up to the Chicago area and play the Willowbrook ballroom, my wife and i will be out swing dancing our hearts out. Sounds like it'll be a great time, best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L5Larry Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 Do You have any plans/possibility to record the event? It would be great to see/hear it. Yes, the sound booth at the venue is equipped with Pro Tools that will be running. The problem with live recording a big band is that for general performance very few mics are used. There are mics use for solos only in each horn section, and a vocal mic (of course). So to get the rest of the sound for a recording you have to setup "ambient" mics, and the eternal problem with ambient mics is crowd noise (patron conversation, clanking of dinner plates and cocktail glasses, waiter/waitress service, and my FAVORITE.... the ice crusher and espresso machine behind the bar). All to say, yes, it will be recorded.... but it won't be CD quality, just "for revue" so to speak. To bring in a 24-track "remote truck" (as we used to call them), is an incredibly expensive and time consuming endeavor, for which we have no budget this year. I'll see what "evidence" is gathered, and see what I can post. Thanks everyone for your interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPguitarman Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Hey Larry, Are you going to be performing at the Jazz Festival in U-City, June 5th and 6th? Me and the boys might show up there, we have another friend who is a drummer in a Jazz/Fusion Band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L5Larry Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 Hey Larry, Are you going to be performing at the Jazz Festival in U-City, June 5th and 6th? Hey Santo, No, I won't be at the U-City festival. On June 6th I'll be playing in Union, Missouri, for "Union Founders Day". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L5Larry Posted June 3, 2015 Author Share Posted June 3, 2015 Last shameless bump. I hope to see/meet some St. Louis/Midwest members at the show Wednesday evening. Make sure and come up and say "Hi". I'll be the one playing the L-5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
