Editing Progress

Posted by rdub in Music

I’ve got the first 3 tracks cut. So far, the show sounds really good. I’ll try to finish up the rest this weekend, and post the links here.

I’m taking this time to teach myself Logic, so the going (or at least the starting) was a bit slow. I’m on a roll now, so things are proceeding along well.

If you’re a close friend of mine, ask me how you can checkout what I have so far.

Cheers!

Sweet Fuck, no!

I came home, all excited to edit up the show into mp3s for your enjoyment, only to be greeted by the sound of a scraping disk in my laptop…

DiskWarrior shows no love, either:

DiskWarrior App: Unknown disk: ‘disk3s3′, sectors: 116948022, size: 512, type: ”
DiskWarrior App: Rebuilding disk device: disk3s3
DiskWarrior App: disk3s3 Extents, Catalog and Attributes tree sizes total 454.19 MB.
DiskWarrior App: disk3s3: Bad (slow) blocks appearing in range 101896 to 102151, unless disk was asleep and delay was due to spin-up. (-1835501)

Why did this have to happen *before* I got that show off my disk…

[EDIT: DiskWarrior brought the love - The index is repaired, with only 1 file damaged. First order of business - copying that show off.]

[EDIT 2: DiskWarrior can't repair the disk, but I can build me a "preview disk." I used this preview disk to get everything that I didn't backup last week off the drive. All seems to be okay with the recording, thank god...]

[EDIT 3: Trying to even do a second repair left me toasted..

DiskWarrior App: disk3s3: Bad (slow) blocks appearing in range 1270352 to 1270607, unless disk was asleep and delay was due to spin-up. (-1835311)
DiskWarrior App: disk3s3: Bad (slow) blocks appearing in range 1270608 to 1270863, unless disk was asleep and delay was due to spin-up. (-1835274)
DiskWarrior App: disk3s3: Bad (slow) blocks appearing in range 1271120 to 1271375, unless disk was asleep and delay was due to spin-up. (-1835206)
DiskWarrior App: disk3s3: Bad (slow) blocks appearing in range 1271888 to 1272143, unless disk was asleep and delay was due to spin-up. (-1834781)

This disk appears to be dead. :-(

Thank You

Posted by rdub in Music

Thank you to everyone who was there at the show last night! We had a blast, and from all the cheering on the recording, it sounds like you had a blast, too!

Thanks to Athena for setting this up – we couldn’t have done it without you.
Thanks to Caffe Trieste for lettings us play.
And many thanks to my good buddy Ryan Joseph. Rock on!

We recorded the whole show last night, and it sounds great. I plan on splitting it into mp3s and posting them here, so check back for updates.

Cheers!

Show Update

Posted by rdub in Music

I went and checked out the venue last night – it’s pretty small, very chill, and should be a good place to debut.

The show that Athena booked for us as a birthday gift will be next Tuesday, March 11th, 7 – 8:30pm. The Ryans will be playing at Caffe Trieste at 1667 Market Street (Market & Gough), in San Francisco. I can’t tell you how excited I am, or how lucky I feel that someone I love booked me a show.

Come join us for a nice set.
