Mojorule Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 mind you dont learn anything Fat chance of that! They don't have any books on or by Emma Goldman. Though Ragtime might just be tucked away in there somewhere. Well worth the wait. I think your voice always sounds real. Great stuff. And the guitar not too twangy for the most part. (But out of interest what have you got on at the moment - heavier or lighter strings than 12s?) Love this song. Got to love the line about old Em. To be honest, I'd never really noticed it from versions by Earle himself, but I think I must have been sort of overdosing on his stuff when I first encountered this song, so a lot of the lyrics have passed me by. Noticed them now though. And chuckled a little bit. I'm sure that your camera's trick of making you appear a lefty is deliberate and symbolic.

ParlourMan Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 If it's iMovie you're using you can select a video filter for the clip called 'flipped' and it'll bring you back to being a righty..... you can also normalise the clip and it'll bring up the volumes a bit, sure it'll compress it a bit, but it's already going to get compressed when uploading to YT anyway.

ParlourMan Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 No, on Apple's decision to not implement an automatic flip like other video recording softwares do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojorule Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 No, on Apple's decision to not implement an automatic flip like other video recording softwares do. Ah, I see. I am such a follower of General Ludd. I only have experience with Android. No flipping flipping or any such crap. The AGF question was referring to where you'd seen such hilarity, though.
