We've hinted about big “Goings on”
in September, I think it's time to share the scope of our vision. Of
course I realize sometimes visions are bit different from the
outcome, and because of that, it's risky business.
But risk is my middle name.
The first week of September, Vincent
Scarpitti (Vincent Carptha) Vallery Barbin (Noma Falta) will join the
members of Kinagree Smith for form an impromptu Cyber Super Group.
While this would be wicked cool in and of itself, there is more.
We are planning to shoot a bunch of
video footage and compile it into a video documentary entitled, “2
Big 4 The Internet”.
The whole visit almost plays out like a
not so lame reality TV show. Nobody gets voted off the island, but we
try to do a lot of stuff in very little time.
We are planing to play show in Second
Life, Do some recordings, and play a show in real life at The
Hollywood Tavern. The Itinerary works like this.
Day one, People arrive.
Day Two, we rehearse the set we intend
to play.
Day Three, Play a few shows in Second
Life
Day Four, Play the Hollywood Tavern.
Day Five, Squeak in a recording
session.
Vinnie has to leave on day five at 8 PM
so that really puts a hard ceiling on recording.
We are also doing “The Morning Feed,
with Ed Feldman” on G-Town Radio on one of those days.
Why are we doing a documentary?
Well... there is a story to be told
here and while it may or may not be entertaining, I'm sure it will be
interesting. It's the story of five people who love and respect each
other, gathering together to make music. Five people lifting the
banner of Internet musicians and showing the world what they can do.
Now perhaps you are saying, “Playing
a show at The Hollywood Tavern is not the world”, and I'm not
suggesting it is. But a documentary posted to the Internet can reach
a lot of people. The Itinerary is next to impossible to keep up with.
But we are firm in our conviction that with the proper preparation we
can do it.
But we can't do it alone. We do need
your help.
If you can participate at any level
please do. If you live anywhere near Philadelphia make plans to join
us for The Hollywood Tavern show on September 5th. When
making a documentary, you don't want to document how poor the turn
out was at the live show. And having our Internet supporters attend
the show is a great testament to the level of support you give us.
If you bring your video camera and
whatever USB doohickey you need to download files with you, we would
love to include your listener based footage in our documentary. We
can't pay you, but if we use you footage we will include your name in
the credits.
We are hosting a “Meet and Greet”
at 7 PM before the show. So come on out, shake our hands or hug our
necks. Make sure we are real.
We do plan on making a live video
broadcast of the live show from The Hollywood Tavern so if you can't
come in person, log on and watch. You might want to have a few
friends over and make a party of it. You can even take a video of you
watching the show on your computer.
I'm really looking forward to this. I
really hope you can enjoy it right along with us. We've got a lot to
do, but as always.... expect great things.
