Beat It – Fade Up Mic & the Q Tones

Here’s the raw video from Leah’s camera of our performance of Beat It at last week’s Battle of the Bands.  This was my favorite song on our set-list this year.  It was a ton of fun to play.  Listen for the amazing Cello solo in the middle.  I just wish that the sound mix on stage was better.  I could barely hear either myself or the singers.  Thanks to everyone that came out to support … Read entire article »

Muppets

I love the new Muppets videos that have been popping up on youtube lately.  It’s great to see the characters that I loved so much when I was a kid are back.  The first one that caught my eye was last year’s Bohemian Rhapsody.  Wow.  Then just this week, Stand By Me came to my attention.  I made my way over to their channel tonight and discovered so many more great videos.  I really hope … Read entire article »
