Ok, for cork, EJ, etc....whomever was curious about my Les Paul....
This is a ***ROUGH*** clip that my band did in the studio about a month ago. We are called Resurrection Larry, and we're in the Chicago area. This is my all-originals band, which is what I do in addition to the regular, working cover band I play in. Resurrection Larry is a four-piece, consisting of vocals/keys, drums, bass, and guitar (me).
We're getting ready to shoot a promo video, and this was just a rough, one-take thing that we did to get used to the idea of videotaping ourselves. We're just in plain street clothes, etc....it was really informal and kinda spur-of-the-moment. It was the first time we'd played together in months, and this was our warm-up song. It's called "Last Mistake in Love," and it's the song we open our set with live. It starts with a little instrumental intro, and then goes on to the song. There's quite a bit of compression from converting this to a YouTube-friendly, uploadable file...it sounded much better on the TV set in the studio. I normally wouldn't post something so unpolished, but hey ... we're all friends here, right? There are a few clams and assorted mistakes in there, but not too terribly bad. It was done with a direct audio feed from the board to the digital camcorder we used. The mix could have been better, as the keys and vocals aren't quite loud enough. The guitar is also probably a bit too loud, but at least you'll hear it.
So these aren't close-up, hi-res pics ... but at least you can see the guitar and hear what it sounds like.
Have fun
Doc

Get in where you fit in.
