Artomatic
Dark Dissolve played Artomatic's Cabaret Stage on Friday. We were intending to do an acoustic set.... acoustic guitars, acoustic harp, acoustic violin, awesome portable acoustic percussion (no drumset). Its our "small setting" instrumentation. Anyways. We got there (after much drama with some of the worst traffic I've seen), and the stage was HUGE with a drumset setup, and they wanted to mic us!
We did our first song acoustic. Larry said you could hear the harp that way.
The sound guy wanted to mic us. So they tried. Of course, everything got miced well except the harp, which could no longer be heard :(. The crappy thing is I had the pic up for it, but they decided after we started our set to mic us so there was no time for me to get it out and do a real sound check. I should've just brought the electric harp! Oh well.
I've been sick for the past several weeks. A cold/sore throat that just won't go away! I was feeling so great for so long, I guess I started doing too many things and not sleeping enough :(.
