DP Northeast 2
So here’s some other DP stuff almost a month later
We recorded at Quiet Country Audio outside of Buffalo, NY
Justin was in a band with the operator of the spot, Paul, a while back so it was like a little buddy reunion
We got in and started setting up almost immediately
Here’s my drums
Check out those wood things. They designed those as sound dampeners. Pretty cool concept. It breaks up the bounce.
The mic shelf
So one of the cool things about it is they shoot multi angle video of two of the recorded songs, so that was fun
we did every song in one take and that was that
Matt had a cymbal dick that day
Everything turned out pretty awesome
The end result is up at quietcountryaudio.com
More shots of the space
We wanted to do one of these for everyone but Justin was busy talking
So we did three
Mine was weird anyway
Here’s Justin being Justin
And thumbs up to that
Here’s the Crew standing behind the boards listening to the mix. Everything is also up on a bandcamp and youtube. I should be posting the embeded video right after down here:
I chew gum like a cow in these videos. I like em though
So we went back to House of Guitars and this time I made some purchases. I started digging through their stock boxes. Look at that shit. Nirvana “Bleach” cassettes, just in a giant box. Montell Jordan, REM, 2 Pac, and Lil Wayne actually made it to cassette.
Conor enamored by the giant space
Looky what was hanging from the ceiling
Back in the main space checking out the antiquities
And the sheer volume
Look at all these fucking things!
Conor ended up buying a Gibson and as we were leaving I asked Bruce if he would jump in a photo with us. He did it so routinely it was hilarious. He was like “here, let’s grab some guitars first”
He then thanked us for the support and business and gave us some legit ass hoodies and sticker packs
Conor and I left with 4 copies of “Bleach” on cassette.
We then it up a banging Ethiopian spot in Rocester. So fuckin good.
Conor and the new ax
Back at Keely’s, getting a last hang in with kitties
Little weirdo cuties
Matt… weirded out by cats forever
And a helpful fella
We got the customary shot of Conor holding something up in front of the van. Luckily this time it was just an oil rag
Here we are at the show in Buffalo. Lotta fuckin fun that night. Matt’s got bullhorns
Keely took this, hey that’s me!
I had taken this at a vegan spot in Buffalo at some point, can’t remember when. EVERYONE spells weird wrong
Here is Matt as the Emperor in the van down to Philly. We were going to be playing a house show that night and had a decent drive ahead of us
Check out this weird space shit. Going warp
Here is probably the only shot I got in Philly. Cool West Philly sky.
Back at the house show hanging with kids in the living room
Matt drinking beers. We had a good time until Matt got shitty news that sent us home early. He’s alright now, but it was a lame night for him. More photos from the future to come
