Actually, it's two serendipitously coinciding guitar solos from different recording sessions at different places several months apart. The first was recorded with Ross in Dyker Heights when we did the drums and then the second at Spaceman last week. Neither was quite right but then I had an epiphany: "Wait a minute, play both of those solos together" and ta-dah! I'm talking about harmonies.<br /><br />To me it sounds like early Weezer and I'm very very proud of it.Isaac Gillespiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02123310155259856454noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7561011949235178622.post-34221492337143389502010-07-24T10:23:00.000-07:002010-07-25T23:03:57.418-07:00PARTY EXPO ROCK AND ROLLLast Friday's set at the Party Expo could be described as Hobbesian; short, loud and silly.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpX6tyUVRsvoe7FQixXzao5i0m6RToio2t6HmpYeioIcEIRXrmM8W5_geFkMGXMC0XYJe-OBi6DNXWkhVEiC3xC206eriNM98WUjBfGRnnU1uIzxPQOVU4g_l8vxqL3iAkgAzG2pkKaCA/s1600/P1120620b.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpX6tyUVRsvoe7FQixXzao5i0m6RToio2t6HmpYeioIcEIRXrmM8W5_geFkMGXMC0XYJe-OBi6DNXWkhVEiC3xC206eriNM98WUjBfGRnnU1uIzxPQOVU4g_l8vxqL3iAkgAzG2pkKaCA/s400/P1120620b.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5497871590610378226" /></a><br /><br />Charles and I were not afraid to show some skin as the two-man Due Diligence.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiemNHzHSwQ7Hupl7yOvMSIKPu4NerqTLKNCrsVup-yM_OsO4JmI18ZwDju6EZBxs6hHXL5MXE5b383jGOAY_-xfBcrj7sHP1TP8v3YP1l4MVc01iTWRu2xuCJnnglnHUo4SaEUIp_wuTg/s1600/P1120641b.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiemNHzHSwQ7Hupl7yOvMSIKPu4NerqTLKNCrsVup-yM_OsO4JmI18ZwDju6EZBxs6hHXL5MXE5b383jGOAY_-xfBcrj7sHP1TP8v3YP1l4MVc01iTWRu2xuCJnnglnHUo4SaEUIp_wuTg/s400/P1120641b.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5497871581842617426" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjZ3g-AkKA2GWQCkv7A1QVFPgLnwLn1fTwyaH9n1X37U20DmLs8ueRQosw58_VAAj9Z8nSQQ1TlKOXMw7nu_6tOU-2fKvgPsOQqMNiO7u45iAvIhmCicunO9qrIfqZrbl9vWL8NqKSF-Q/s1600/P1120635b.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjZ3g-AkKA2GWQCkv7A1QVFPgLnwLn1fTwyaH9n1X37U20DmLs8ueRQosw58_VAAj9Z8nSQQ1TlKOXMw7nu_6tOU-2fKvgPsOQqMNiO7u45iAvIhmCicunO9qrIfqZrbl9vWL8NqKSF-Q/s400/P1120635b.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5497871569963443746" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBypfPSsyLb_IPRNicJCFF-Q9oYz1zk7kS5iLzrBE6mmVVWMagGzSw_qqvA_gbpsCmXY7cGB4UqFdmVhZG3nnedUOffxkzJZzxwbjVxuDX4WgBL03wUM0cx-oOgtPnNxtUpUVzT-quJI4/s1600/P1120628b.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBypfPSsyLb_IPRNicJCFF-Q9oYz1zk7kS5iLzrBE6mmVVWMagGzSw_qqvA_gbpsCmXY7cGB4UqFdmVhZG3nnedUOffxkzJZzxwbjVxuDX4WgBL03wUM0cx-oOgtPnNxtUpUVzT-quJI4/s400/P1120628b.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5497869925588410978" /></a><br /><br />But don't take my word for it!

I feel like I belong the generation that would see this video:<br /><br /><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/tJJqDoPHT_c&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/tJJqDoPHT_c&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object><br /><br />and give it that title. I mean, this is a video of a person ON THE MOON! That is totally crazy (I feel like part of my fascination, too, is not just that they landed people on the moon, but that they did it with 1960s technology. Part of me kind of believes that if need be, my phone could get me to the moon. But those 60s space suits just look like they were sewn by the astronauts moms!)<br /><br />So I've been reading all about NASA (Did you know that the Saturn V rocket that launched the moon mission is still the biggest rocket ever launched. It was 30 stories high. Just think about that - a 30 story building levitating into the air as a product of just lots and lots of fire) and watching videos online and I've ended up at this amazing documentary on Netflix called "For All Mankind". It is totally awesome. They take all this original NASA footage and weave it into a compelling story.<br /><br />I had to stop at the part where the three astronauts are floating in space halfway between the earth and the moon. I'm worried about them.<br /><br />.<br /><br />Apart from that, I've been looking at pictures of old monuments like stonehenge and this one too (seahenge):<br /><br /><img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a2/Seahenge.jpg"><br /><br /><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/16/science/16archeo.html?pagewanted=1" >This</a> was in the paper today:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRrLFYv3qxArcsrZjMqPLnPy5j2PM0A9NYtdkoMyVZ1JJOhrLtS0eQMqqeFyXUufwQgjGQKSkLrJ1J_4ze0TSnv_ZfvS0ey1TUx9vaLyHenKeM2zjtX0TY9Ds1LfuMDsvo7WnIdZH8hdE/s1600-h/16archeo-span-articleLarge.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 187px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRrLFYv3qxArcsrZjMqPLnPy5j2PM0A9NYtdkoMyVZ1JJOhrLtS0eQMqqeFyXUufwQgjGQKSkLrJ1J_4ze0TSnv_ZfvS0ey1TUx9vaLyHenKeM2zjtX0TY9Ds1LfuMDsvo7WnIdZH8hdE/s400/16archeo-span-articleLarge.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5449456571355504162" /></a><br /><br />It's a 4,000 year old cemetery in the deserts of China.

So we set out to the storefronts to see if we could replace it.<br /><br />I arrived at Flower Computer Repair on Northern Blvd. There was a young American dude (or I'm guessing, he seemed to be a native English speaker at least) at the front desk and then back in the corner an older Chinese man (again, I'm guessing at basically all of these descriptive adjectives). <br /><br />I rush in the door: "Hey, I just need a mini-USB cable, do you have that?" The guy at the desk gives me a blank stare for a moment, then stands and picks up a mini-USB limply. He looks back at me: "Like this?"<br /><br />"Yeah, that's exactly what I need. How much is it?" The guy behind the counter sort of looks at me like that's a question he'd never considered. It's obvious that Flower Computer Repair considers itself to be specifically computer repair and NOT retail sales. Perhaps if I'd asked to have my mini-USB repaired they'd know what to do with me.<br /><br />So the guy behind the counter looks back at the older Chinese gentlemen. He approaches, looks at the cable, looks at me and then slowly shakes his head: "No."<br /><br />"No?" <br /><br />The young dude: "It's not really for sale. This is just for our own use." <br /><br />"You won't sell it to me?"<br /><br />Again, the young guy looks at the older guy. Who looks again at the cable and again at me. He shakes his head. "No."<br /><br />I'm desparate. I need this cable! We've been trying to record these piano parts for months and if we can't do it today it'll be another six weeks before the Shivers even get back from their UK tour. <br /><br />I pull out my wallet. "I'll give you ten bucks for that cable. That's a good deal."<br /><br />The older man: "Ten bucks?" Younger man: "That's ten dollars." A subtle shift in the room. The older man takes the cable, turns to me and offers it out. "Take it," he says.<br /><br />"Oh, thank you so much!" I say as I reach inside my wallet.<br /><br />"No," he says. "No charge. Free."<br /><br />I was shocked! Flower Computer Repair man! Only intending the whole time to test my mettle! Only once I proved that I truly wanted the USB cable and would be willing to part with ten "bucks" could I be trusted with it's custody!<br /><br />The piano recording, by the way, went amazing. We got this beautiful Steinway Grand on four tracks and then did a take with the pipe organ.Isaac Gillespiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02123310155259856454noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7561011949235178622.post-81759089575831233632010-03-07T12:28:00.001-08:002010-03-07T12:28:36.733-08:00This Is Fair, Right?From: Isaac Gillespie<br />Subject: Re: Hi Issac<br /><br />Hey Emily,<br />Thanks for the message, but I'm not really booking any shows where I don't know the booker or any of the bands.

I was really impressed with your music - music quality is first and foremost what is important to me.

Preferably work my way across the ocean on a freighter, but only if it's not too hard.<br /><br />Anyway, this is what I found: http://www.freighter-travel.com/travel-itineraries.html<br /><br />It's pretty badass and I definitely want to do it at some point. Maybe this summer to kick off a Europe tour? That would be totally rad.<br /><br />Apologies if this blog has gotten off topic from being about the album, there's actually lots of great news about all that which I promise to post here soon.

He was teaching me the folk thumb-picking fundamentals. "It's all about the thumb" he says. <br /><br />Willie Moore is a song that I first heard from the Kossoy Sisters on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Folk-Song-America-Vol-1/dp/B0000017TG/ref=ntt_mus_ep_wlb_dpt" >this</a> really excellent folk music compilation. I mean really really excellent. Blows the water right out of the Anthology of American Folk Music in my modest opinion. <br /><br /><a/ href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kossoy_Sisters" >The Kossoy Sisters</a> original recording of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZUNQvorokg" >"I'll Fly Away"</a> was featured in "Oh Brother Where Art Thou" (Allison Kraus & Gillian Welch sing it on the CD). Their recording of Willie Moore features supertight harmony and a chilling deadpan delivery of a tragic love story. Mine has a funny shirt:<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/iyIw9EtQLy0&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/iyIw9EtQLy0&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br />One quick thing, when I was rehearsing this song my septuagenarian lefty roommate came out and said: "Oh I always knew that song with totally different lyrics. It's supposed to be about the unions."

We can't banish all "Marie" songs from our repertoire!
