Todd Emerson is our harmonicist in the band, he's always comin' up with crazy stuff... so I've started putting "secret" mics on his amp, and caught this gem during practice a while back (mid february).
It's called "Checkin' Like a Mofo," a live 2-track (58's) w/ snippets about each person that happened to be in the barn at the time (late Friday night, as I recall). He wants to be known as "Catfish Slim", so he's at www.mp3.com/catfishslim ...
You'll notice the rain kicks in about halfway through the song... I adjusted the drum overhead to catch his non-amped vocals, and the 58 was really close to the tin roof (btw, this is what a double tin roof sounds like with a couple layers of foam on it. a good lesson in why foam won't stop SHIT).
I'd appreciate a listen, and will try to bounce back here when I've listened to it again to explain some of the lyrics...
btw, he's playing where the drums used to be in these photos... http://www.angelfire.com/al3/studio/Pages/Kelly_Holdridge.htm The room has changed alot, we opened up the other side (from the drums) and tore out the stairs, but the "feel" of the room remains...
Thanks!
