I love live music.
Some of the best nights of my life have been at gigs. You're with your friends, you're drinking, there's music, you dance your ass off. It's great fun. So when Grande Cobra said there was a spare seat on thier tour bus, I jumped at the chance for a trip to Birmingham.
They'd played the night before, that was a kickass gig, I had a lot of fun, and, true to my videoblogging word, thier second song from that night is available for download below. The sound quality is shocking (I was filming it on my digital camera), and even though I only recorded it at 320, it's still a pretty huge file (60MB- I'm looking into making a smaller, compressed version).
Saturday was cool- a road trip is always fun, but when you're in the coolest tour bus ever, it's a lot more fun. It was this huge beast, with actual airline seats bolted in the back. With a little creative engineering, we managed to turn them sort of into one big bed in the back. The gig in the big B wasn't quite so packed or excited as the London gig, but I had a lot of fun, as all the Birminghamnites I met were very friendly, and beer was only £1.50! YES!

Keep in mind that until I figure out how to compress, the file below is just under 60MB, a pretty hefty figure, so be wary of following the link.
If you enjoy that one, there's more, from their Birmingham show on Saturday here. This one is a slightly larger download, and gets cut-off near the end. Sorry, I ran out of memory!
UPDATE! Smaller, lower quality version are now available for download, if you find 60MB too large. Get Friday nights show (at 11MB) here, or Saturday nights show (at 12MB) here. Hope it all works!


awesome stuff. nice work chappie.
