So, after Death Cab and a near death experience on Tuesday and the long and late night with the amazing opening of the NYC Popfest on Thursday, we decided to rest on Friday the 13th.
We woke up on Saturday morning to find an email from Nick Hallett who conceived and directed the performance of Oneida‘s The Wedding at The Kitchen. He offered us an opportunity to record the Saturday night performance.
When the details were worked out, we arrived at the Kitchen early to set-up and beat the rain. The venue is this amazing art/performance space in far west Chelsea and it has an excellent sound system and crew. We recorded Oneida’s Wedding as a four-channel soundboard/Neumann mix, and the audio is so good that we have offered the master to the participants for possible release. Its that good. More details to follow.
When Oneida was over, we raced back home, changed rigs and out of the wet clothes and took the L Train over the Music Hall and Ladybug Transistor, offered now on nyctaper [HERE]. Unfortunately, the show lasted quite late and when we exited the venue our text message to ToddP was returned with a “show is over” response — in other words, sadly we missed Love is All at the Market Hotel.
Yesterday we spent the day on Governor’s Island recording over three hours of moe. Expect that recording in the next few days. Tonight we’re at Sigur Ros. Whew!
In the following days, we’ll be posting the Oh! Custer recording, Antietam at Brooklyn Public Library, moe. and Sigur Ros. Oneida will be posted if the participants do not use the master for an official release.
