About Me
I have 16 channel multitracked 100s of live shows by many Indianapolis & touring national bands at many of the best music venues in town [The Vogue, The Murat (Arabian Room), Buskirk-Chumley Theater, Radio Radio, The Melody Inn, Local's Only, The Irving Theater, The Patio (Spin),].

Some of these recordings are on this site, others are being worked on to get on this site, and then there are the ones that will probably never see the light of day.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JEB!!!

Today, October 28th, is Jeb's birthday.

He does a lot for everyone who uses this site and I think we should all wish him a Happy Birthday. Let me be the first (in blog format, at least) to wish him one.

Thanks for all you do Jeb!!

The Death of Pandora (and all legal internet radio)

Not that this will effect MFT itself, but it is something I think ALL music lovers will be interested to know.

Pandora Could Be First Major Casualty of New Royalty Rates: blog.wired.com/music/2008/08/pandora-could-b.html

This is part of what killed JagRadio. Not a good sign for the music industry.

AOTM & Vulgar Boatmen Live at 2006 MMS MFT Showcase

After a 1.3 years of self-imposed hiatus from anything other than work & staying home, Jeb Banner slowly prodded me into finally reengaging with the world and mixing down some of the 100 or so shows I recorded over the course of a year and a half, mostly for MFT.

I mixed down the Margot at the Irving (12/30/06) show over the course of a week or so, to get my mixing chops working. http://www. musicalfamilytree. org/band/margot_and_the_nuclear_so_and_sos

Jeb & I got together for a couple… Continue

How much does that usually cost?

That sounds so cool. We would love to do something like that during a show of ours but..we're all still 17 and 16 yrs. old and don't play big enough places to do something like that.
I imagine a bigger type of show/venue would be necessary for the multi-tracking?

Yeah, it's been pretty ugly here. Third St is still closed off going into Main St and the beautiful river walk that was finished this year was completely under water. I live not too far from where you grew up, just south of Third St and west of Wisconsin. It's a nice neighborhood. There are a bunch of nature preserves near me so I have all sorts of wild life running around my yard regularly. After living in Chicago for years, I love the quiet and peace here.

I spend time in your neck of the wood quite a bit. I have a bunch of friends in Indy, Fishers and Zionsville. My friends in Fishers were the ones who got me looking at this site.

Awesome!
That'd be very cool indeed.
Is that basically a live feed of a show?
At 11:18pm on September 16, 2008, Oliver said…
Thanks a lot Mike!
As of now we're recording in Carmel at Diehl Productions.

Yep, I moved to Hobart in 2002 after getting tired of living in Chicago. Now instead of pigeons and rats, I have deer and cardinals. Brickie fever is still going strong around here.
