Ghost of Electricity Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QBI0YOTdIA I posted this before somewhere, but there has been talk of a separate thread for this, and besides, I thought it was time for someone else besides Pop Todd to take flack for self-promotion. All of you in bands, don't leave me hanging here... Incidentally, we too have a november gig, but I would be truly shocked to see any of you there, so I'll just post this other link instead: Los Gasolineros Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PopTodd Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 You have posted this before, and I liked it then, too. I love that guitar hook.There are a couple of (poor) videos of my playing solo/acoustic up at YouTube.But, if you want a good (professional) quality video of me playing with the original lineup of the band... drop me a PM.

PopTodd Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Okay, so I laid out a (very) simple YouTube because, well, I needed to.Just a single slide, but I added Pop-Up Video style notations to add a little bit of interest."Here" it is.

Is that a kazoo? I was about to ask where in Africa you are, but then I saw your link in your signature, so I'll be reading your blog to find out more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was about to ask where in Africa you are, but then I saw your link in your signature, so I'll be reading your blog to find out more. Yeah, I dont have many instruments out here, but a toy kazoo is one of them. I'm hoping to get some traditional drums and a xylophone-ish instrument they use out here too. (Here is Burkina Faso, for the record) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For example, where in Burkina Faso are you? Also, there's a lot of West African music I like, mostly from Mali and Senegal. That's in your neighborhood, so that leads me to wonder whether there's any good local music there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm in a small town on the east side of Burkina - kind of near niger/benin/togo - not by mali at all. I've got to 3 or 4 musical events since I got here and the local music is pretty awesome, especially the drumming/rhythm instruments. Just in general, it seems like everyone has really good rhythm. When I play guitar even the littlest kids can dance with the beat. At any rate, I'd like to get much deeper into the traditional/local music while I'm here, but I need to work on my french first.

What's the native local language? Are you out of range of the griot/kora tradition? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OOO Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Cool- be sure to share your discoveries! What's the native local language? Are you out of range of the griot/kora tradition? The language out here is Gourmantché, but almost all of the teachers/government workers come from the central part of the country, so their native language is Mooré. However, the students are not allowed to speak anything but French, so thats what I'm focusing on at the moment. I'm not familiar with griot/dori tradition, so I'm going to say no on that one. I've got to head to school now and pass back some math tests. Adios! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PopTodd Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 This was back in May: And, the offer still stands that, if any of you want to see the video of me and my (full, now defunct lineup) band playing on the Morning News here in Chicago, send me a PM. (I can't post it online due to copyright stuff.) Some great stuff on here, folks. There are a lot of talented VCers! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ginandcigarettes Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 These are all from a few years ago, but: At 2:29 you can hear me completely miss the cue! Awesomeness. The thing is, you can pinpoint the exact moment where I totally forget what the next chord is. I'll just play the same thing again. I don't think I screw up in any obvious way, but I look like I'm just waiting for the song to end so I can drink a bottle of anti-freeze. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Muzzle of Dan Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Here's a little Wilco related video. We did a nice little duet of Ashes at a recent acoustic show. This is my full band - Northern Strangers. This is how we like to end our shows most nights. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
