Next gig is a fundraiser at our school - It's a middle school in Louisville where we did the same gig last year - on Nov. 17th
Our kids make ceramic bowls that they paint and glaze, then sell to their parents and teachers. :oops: Our band comes and plays during the dinner - for no pay, but we do get some good food. Will probably get a pic and vid or two at this year's gig.

Windhorse,

I am so proud of being in a forum where there are pros like you who GIVE and share the joy of music because it feels right, it does good,and it increases the happiness quotient. You are a human being.

I'm very excited about our short gig on Wednesday! We just had a rehearsal yesterday, and 5 (sometimes 6) of our 7 guys are singing! And we sound good!! This is a new milestone for us - to have so many of our players also singing! Follows is our song/vocals lists.
We'll start with an Ararà Rezo that I learned from Lazaro Gallaraga, then I start the Bembe with Ibarago with bell coming in after one clave into the song.
Then, we do a bata/rumba with all three bata and quinto to Obatala.
Finally, we end with a Guaguanco and we sing Congo Yambumba.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10287309/school/bembe.MP4 Recorded on a flip, and the viewer was close enough to get muddled mic overdrive. But, I liked our energy and intensity. I hear myself singing flat at times, and the lead drummer taking more liberties with flams than I like, but I'm still proud of where we are now. I love Thom's Iya, and Dave's middle drum/akpon/coro. The two Africans randomly coming in to dance during the Ogun sequence were in the closing act. They're two of the best musicians I've ever seen, so I was really honored when they danced to our tune.

I'd love to see that video, but I can't make it play on anything. I tried quicktime, windows media player,and winamp. Any other suggestions?

Hi Dusty.. Quicktime... But, you've got to wait --- a long time ---- It's a really big file. You can right click and download it as another option.. Also, I've uploaded it to http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=1448679386260 [Facebook], so you can use their viewer.
