Jim James + M. Ward: St. David's Church, 3/15

[Cameron]

two days later i still can't get over how great that show was.  thanks for the video link!

[BH]

:) thanks, r!!
and thanks everybody, too!

i haven't decided if i want to keep most of these new songs as a secret to myself so that i can listen with mostly fresh ears to the new record as a whole.  but it's so long away.  i'm torn.

i'm also a dweeb for experiencing such indecision about this. ;)

I am having a hard time with this myself.  The battle going on inside me is like Hulk Hogan vs. Andre the Giant circa 1983.

Thanks for posting!  Look forward to hearing this one.

The two unknown songs are Wonderful (the Way I Feel) and Look at You.

Dylan, the "peace and glory"/look at you thing clears up most of my question marks from the solo sets last year (The Greek/The Rud/Belly Up - Craft) however, there was also a song listed on the setlist as "Ordinary" if I remember right.   Any idea what this was?   Could it have been a cover?  New song not on the album?

That song is either another original or it's a cover of an aaron todovich song.  he played after dondante at the rud.  I didn't catch if he said it was about or by aaron.  my guess is that it's aaron's song.  anyone know for sure?

[sweatboard]

I'm almost postive "Ordinary" was an Aaron Todovich song.  I know he played an Aaron Todovich song and looking back at the setlist this is the only one it could have been.  Very heartfelt and beutiful song from what I can remember.  Hopefuly this show will surface soon.

[aMD]

ok, paul thought the same thing.  I'm going to add it to the covers comp as aaron's song until I hear different.

Wow!!  :o

They did an amazing job with the filming and the audio is off the chart.  Thanks Riny!!  This is one of the coolest internet links I've seen from SXSW.

Great still shot of M and Jim hugging it was perfectly timed.   :)

Nice editing on Bermuda Highway.. ;D

Wow, this show looks like it was awesome. Thanks for all the info. :)

Solace. Please wait to upload the recording.

I don't know if you saw me, but i was in the back center of the room recording with a full  audio recording rig... mics, preamp, and recorder. I promise you that my recording is of higher quality and has a larger dynamic range. I'm not trying to be rude, I would just hate to see two recordings surface, one of which is much better sounding that the other. It seems from the 2 songs you posted, your recording is heavy on the low end, since it was sitting on the floor.

If you could just wait a few days, I will post my recording online for all to download as lossless audio.

Also, what is the My Morning Jacket recording policy, are they totally fine with people recording their shows and distributing them online? I am a fan of the music, just never taped them before.

thanks,

josh

hey no worries!
heck less work for me and it'll be a superior recording!  :D

that's great you were able to tape it without any credentials, i kinda figured they'd be ninja for that show. but i'm still glad I recorded it with my own recorder, even if it's not the best quality, since if it was the only recording it'd be better than nothing  ;)

I had to do some sweet talking at the door, but i got in, without cash, wristband, or badge, about 15 minutes before M Ward started. I tried to get a soundboard patch as well, but KUT was taking the only available send, so i am guessing they will be posting  something on their website. A soundboard recording won't do it any justice though because it won't have any of the room acoustics that my audience recording has.

Hope you guys don't mind waiting a few days, I will have it posted up by the end of this week.

Josh, not to be impatient, but how is the progress coming?  Thanks.

[alexzbik]

yeah i think a lot of people are waiting for this to be uploaded

[Kory]

it's Wednesday morning, let's give him some time...

[alexzbik]

oh no rush at all, i am just very excited.

[wolfattack]

sorry guys, a few more days. You will get it though.

Just for a heads up, i am trying to see if i can get the soundboard patch from KUT, so i can mix the soundboard recording with my audience recording. If so, it will sound really good. Still sounds good, but it would sound better.

The dynamic range for the show was so large, that i am going to have to do some minor compression, just so the listener isn't having to turn the volume up way loud for the quiet song, then get nailed by some super loud clapping.

I promise i will upload it though.

cheers,

josh
