It’s time for another collections post from new contributor Scott Schiller. Scott and Jonemery (Chuck) Dodds are promoting a new series of shows in the Davis/Woodland area. It looks like they started at Morgan’s Mill in Woodland and they are now doing some stuff at Watermelon Music in Davis, but I saw another show at the Mill in March. Go follow left of the dial promotions if that is your jam, as the kids say.
This show took place about a month ago with Kevin and Alex. Almost 2 hours of song swaps and stories. It’s a bit dynamic, so turn it up.

This week’s winner is Chris Charla! If you look closely, you might wonder how in the hell Chris got a ton of entries… well, Chris donated through his employer(via the Benevity platform) who DOUBLED THE AMOUNT- matched donations 1:1! Plus, I didn’t know that I could run reports in Benevity and see who donated- just discovered that this week and Chris donated over a month ago. So this was Chris, plus his employer, plus me applying a catch-up calc since there are only TWO MORE DRAWINGS for now! Stuffing the ballot box is allowed!!! Donate at the link below.

Let’s do the Patreon Voter’s Choice first today! I just remembered that I haven’t started the ballot for this week- yikes! Get in on it ASAP if you want to vote on something cool this week. This week’s theme- Off List Audio.
Miki Berenyi came to SF last week for the last time and played a bunch from her MB3 releases and SIX lush “covers”! I was able to make my schoeps recording sound decent- it was very bassy and muddy. I EQ’d out some of the lows, boosted the mids, and then ran it through Izotope to bring up vocals as much as possible without it sounding bad.
There are quite a few people in the way of the shot, especially later in the show. I knew that GAMH were sticklers about monopods on the floor, so I brought this little selfie stick and popped it in my shirt pocket. I needed some support since the left hand isn’t all the way healed yet. It wasn’t as high as my usual monopod and it kinda worked… and then some tall dudes get in the way toward the end of the set and I didn’t want to move and ruin the audio sweet spot. So there ya go. This is what happens when you compromise audio and video. It’s not terrible.
Thanks to my friend (and Sac Muisc Archive board member) Jim Utz for the help with the camera pass. This probably wouldn’t exist without him!
