Woah, VCON starts tomorrow! I’m on a bunch of panels<\/a> and my concert is Friday at 7pm, with the possibility of an ish<\/em> on that because I don’t know if that includes the setup time.<\/p>\n

Because I’m just goofy, I’m bringing like three instruments just for the show, plus a few others for a panel, and I’m doing some really old material and<\/em> a couple of things I’ve just written. BRAND NEW AND FRESH FOR YOU!<\/p>\n

Over on Dreamwidth, Batyatoon<\/a> asked if she could get a listen to<\/a> the surprisingly cheap and trashy and awesome<\/eM> sound the octave mandolin makes when it’s tuned to an open power chord that’s down a bit<\/a>. Since she’s all East Coast Tribe and stuff, and therefore far away from any likely shows, I’ve decided CAN DO, SPORT!<\/p>\n

This is a raw single mic recording I just made of the “Thirteen” riff, no effects at all<\/eM>, barely any compression for levelling, but it’ll give you the idea:<\/p>\n

PLAY<\/small> SAMPLE [<\/b><\/small>><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I love how overdriven it sounds even though there’s not a hint of actual overdrive. I’m still getting a feel for it and a SRS BSNS PRO probably wouldn’t play it out yet but SINCE WHEN HAS THAT STOPPED ME? Muah ha ha!<\/p>\n

Relatedly, Part Two of the Doctor Who<\/i> series opener… surprise! It was pretty good! I’ve got a nit or two to pick, but nothing major, and again, several bits I really quite liked. Still on probation, but this is the best it’s been in a while. I don’t know what happened, but I’m glad it did.<\/p>\n

Anyway – see you at VCON, I hope!<\/p>\n

said count by the minutes and count by the hours
\nyou’ll see a future that you never knew
\nbut the path’s all covered with the blood of strangers
