11/20/10 “The Story” Man and his band

Brandi Carlile - Neumos Secret Show

If you couldn’t tell, this is a post about Brandis secret show at Neumos… and I can’t remember the last time I had so much FUN at a show!

Seeing Brandi at these small intimate shows is sooooo special to me. Seeing Brandi at small Seattle clubs is where I came from! I started seeing her in 2003. Back then “Turpentine” was more of a rock anthem, where you held your beer in the air and sang out the chorus.

This show was stated straight out that this was going to be a rocker, there wasn’t going to be many ballads. Whoooo!!! And rocked it, they did. Old songs (again today,wasted), current songs (looking out,dreams), covers (creep, I wanna be sedated)…. Brandi even pulled up her sis and mom to join in for some duets at the end.

And that’s what makes these secret shows so good…. It’s not the usual formula, instead it’s the band having fun and not being afraid of fuckin up (like when Brandi forgot the piano part to let it be and had to restarted it 3 times… (Hahaha I’ve never seen that happen on a song before). Heck, they even started the show with Allison Miller doing a AWESOME drummer solo before anyone even came on stage 🙂

Words will fail me as I try to express my gratefulness of these shows taking place. I fear the day they get “too big” and never play anything smaller than a theater. Of course I had these same fears 4 years ago… I think it’s safe to say that the band doesn’t want to lose these moments anymore than I do. Great show guys, can’t wait to do it again.

This is a simple little animation I was working on while learning #mohoanimation program. Quite a beast of a program! I've barely touched on what it can do. I'm enjoying it though. 🙂 #moho #mohonewbies #prideart #prideartwork #prideanimation #pridebunny #bunnyanimation #rabbitanimation #pride2022 #animationbeginner #animationart #priderabbit
Alright, lets try this again! I created this short Alright, lets try this again! I created this short video last month for #callipeg they have a monthly “theme” short animation you can participate in. Was my first time, and busted my ass to meet the submission deadline for “Sports”. What happened when I saw the compilation video? I found out I submitted a “rough sketch” video on mistake! DOH!!! LOL Oh well… turns out today is the first day of Woman’s World Curling 2022 event, so that works too. :) This was a lot of fun, first time playing with character expressions. You’ll have to watch it 4 times just to see all the details though lol. #thisissilly #callipeganimation #ilovethisapp #animationipad #animation2d #animationsports #animatedsports #catsrule #catcheater #throwacatinit #putacatonit  #usacurling #usacurling2022 #olympiccurling2022 #catcurling #catanimation #catsports #deafartist #deafanimator  #everythingneedsacat
