Mike and the Stares- Hole in the Wall, Austin Tx. 3/13/18 Mike Nicolai Canon HFG40 Rode VPS Mic

So this show was the reason why I did the crazy trip to Austin. Mike Nicolai/Lil Capn Travis/Prescott Curlywolf and Grand Champeen. What a lineup! Mike opened the show and I really enjoyed it. Features Michael Crow from Grand Champeen on guitar.
PS: The other bands are going to take a bit to post because I am waiting on an audio source, and we need to edit 3-4 cameras together. Also, this video looks a bit dark because I screwed up and had my camera on “cinema” setting, rather than manual. D’oh! The rest of the show is much brighter.

Superchunk- Waterloo Records, Austin TX. 3/13/18 Canon HFG40 & Rode Video Pro Mic

So I did this crazy thing and went to sxsw with pretty much no notice an no place to stay. Thanks for Philip Garcia for helping me out with a place to stay!
So I got off the plane and went straight to Waterloo Records. I see a guy there that I know from postcard but have never met. So I awkwardly go “hey.. aren’t you Donny?”. It was great to meet Donny, Dave Dewey, and Jersey Joe from postcard… and I got to hang with DPB, the nicest guy ever. AND I saw Will Johnson for the first time in 10 years.. and he says “I know who you are, Shayne. We stayed at your place in Sacramento in 2003”. HOW does he remember stuff like that?
AND I got to meet Alex Livingstone, who didn’t think flying from California to see his band play was odd at all. Or he played it off well.
Anyway, it was great hanging out with everyone. And meeting quite a few of you guys.

Grand Champeen- Hole in the Wall, Austin Tx. 3/13/18 Multicam with Matrix Audio

I am so excited about this video.
Grand Champeen are one of my favorite bands of all time. They were from Texas but some members have moved around in recent years. They put out 4 albums – all were great but my favorite is The One Who Brought You. Check it out if you haven’t heard it before.

The band quit touring about 10 years ago, so I flew to Austin to see them. Man what a whirlwind that trip was. It was nice meeting all of the Postcard crew and HUGE thanks to Philip Garcia for putting me up for a night at the last minute, during SXSW.
This show is great- Ned, their drummer, had the flu and had to stop for a bit after “Rottweiler Hair”. Way to rally and make it through the show!
Sorry for the imperfect nature of the video- the camera close to Alex (Bass) has some vibration issues- they were LOUD. It sounds great and it is pretty obvious that the band is having a great time.

Lil Capn Travis- Hole in the Wall, Austin Tx. 3/13/18 Multicam Live Rode Audio

Last year’s Grand Champeen show was a dream bill for me- Mike Nicolai opened and one of my favorite bands of the 2000’s played second on the bill. L’il Cap’n Travis is more on the country side of the alt.country spectrum, and they write some amazing pop songs with pedal steel frequently laid over the top. I never thought I would be able to see this band, so I was probably a little too excited to see the band. I got a little teary eyed when they played my favorite song “My Ship is Coming In”. Such a great night.
Thanks need to go out to Philip Garcia for letting me crash at his place at the last minute, and to Liam Dennis & Charlie Passarell for the edit.

Prescott Curlywolf- Hole in the Wall, Austin Tx. 3/13/18 Multicam with Rode Audio Grand Champeen

Here is Prescott Curlywolf’s set, opening for Grand Champeen last year during sxsw. They brought the energy- I really wish I knew more of their material going in… it really helps to film when you know what’s going to happen. It sounds great, even though they were louder than hell. You can see that the G10 angle on the stage is vibrating pretty heavily due to volume.

American Nightmare- 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca. 3/11/18 Live Multicam

Here’s another hardcore show that I filmed at Gilmam. This place was beyond packed and I have never seen so much flash photography at a show before. What’s up with that? Flashes cause my cameras to freak out. Filmaed with a Canon HFG40 w/Rode Video Pro mic, Canon HFG30 mounted to ladder, and Canon HFG30 on a tripod in the balcony. Edit by tromster.
