[THE TUBA]

Yes! I'm catching the end!

[GaryBB]

Thanks for the heads up. Great concert.

[pg]

Well, Wow! I could only catch a little but that was GREAT!

So was Chuck playing a 621 or something bigger? All sounded so nice.

On another note, due to last night's venue change, we are set up for video broadcasting for this evening's concert featuring The U.S. Army Blues Swamp Romp with Tom Holtz followed by The Boston Brass. We will start the audio broadcasts today @ 1:15 pm EDT with the River Bottom Quartet, and will have a live video broadcast starting at 7:00 p.m. EDT.

If the moron whose cellphone rang during the CB's "Adagio For Strings" last night shows up again tonight, can you have him shot? If so, can THAT be webcast as well?

[Mike-ICR]

Wow! What a great show. And kudos, Tom, on some expert slide pullin'. Who made that heli and is it all (or mostly) original? How do like the full circle style (Eb right?)?

I got that from Steve Dillon off the exhibit floor at the conference about 10 years ago. Fun axe. Originally a three-banger, the fourth was added later at Dillon's.

Anyone else have trouble last night trying to view/listen to the concert?

I could see the video just fine for the 'Armed Forces Tuba-Euphonium Ensemble', but no audio at all. I tried listening to the audio only using QT, but that was dead per an alert on the page due to some technical difficulties. I made sure my QT player was working by going to a troubleshooting site... all tested fine.

When the 'Armed Forces Tuba-Euphonium Ensemble' concert finishes and intermission starts, the audio comes in fine!? I'm guessing it may have been a server overload. During intermission many viewers probably dropped off. As soon as the orchestra started, I had some intermittent audio with squirrelly video. I would call it 'pixel squirm'. My internet connection is DSL extreme - about 3MPS.

Hoping it works better tonight for the Grand Concert.

I looked around until I found 2 mp3 audio streams and a qt video stream. I was finally down to only listening to the 40k mp3 stream, and it never quit.

QuickTime link worked fine tonight for the final concert. Thanks to all for making this venue available for those who couldn't attend.

It was great!!

[eupher61]

the CB were here in KC area Thursday, then in Columbia Friday. I had a gig in Columbia at the same time, which meant 2 tuba players were being payed to play in Columbia MO at the same time. Must be a record of some kind.

Sad thing is, I didn't know about either CB show until after my gig ended. I tried calling the Hilton there (probably the nicest hotel in town), but was told I'd need a room number with the name. Makes me think they were there. Dangit...

Shooting is too quick and pain-free. I'll bet the evil vibes sent to that person from 500 people hurt more. He's probably hanging himself in the shower stall of some hotel room as we speak.
