Hey, havnt been on the last few days, cause my nets down. So I can only get on at work (and I wasnt in yesterday)
So I had my gig last night.
It was pretty good. The PA sucked, so it wasnt too loud... and the acoustics where blargh... but whatever.
It was mostly people just talking with the music in the background. I just sat at my laptop and improvised over a backing track... and sure it isnt the most exciting thing... but really, no one was looking (even for the first 2 acts... who played up tempo breakbeat stuff) Although, some people where looking from time to time.
And I got free beer all night.
The organizer recorded the mixer output to DAT, and is going to record it to high quality mp3... so when I get that, Ill let you all know.
Oh, and MIT girls rock.
Hot + Smart = teh ultra sexy.
Anyways, here are some pics...

ooh WATMM pic links... protest! protest! protest! just kidding..
you're right tho, hot and smart is the ultimate in sexy, and i'd think girls majoring in engineering would avoid the snobbiness attributed to most ivy league girls

this thread reminds me of an excellent article i read once about how electronic artists don't recripricat with the crowds as rockers do. it even quotes something along the lines of: "throwing their mouse at the crowd"
i need to hit that site again...*hint*hint*

zues - u seem to be in the know. what would you prefer as more flexable in musical abillity and compatablity. a mac of just a pc. ie: will a mac run reason

yeah, Reason works on a Mac.
the old Mac Vs. PC debate...
well, personally I like Macs better. Why? They crash less. They are more user friendly, and they are (or are becoming) the standard in the music industry.
But, if $$$ is an issue, then a PC will work fine for you.

just use whatever you use, only try to use it live.
its possible with any program to do live sets. rewire helps a lot too. being able to open multiple programs at once and help make it seem more fluent as well.
ive never had any experience on mac, but i used "ableton live" for my live show last here (view here and here). though, i use it for making music straight up even.
just experiment with different things i guess.

id only make visual elements to the music if they had some sort of point along with the song. i wouldnt do cartwheels or put fire all over the place when it has nothing to do with the music
just going there to listen is good enough for me. if you want fire and monsters go see a rob zombie concert. (which, by the way, are fucking awesome. best show ive been too)

if so... I guess it would make more sense to just get a really nice PC, which will be cheaper then a Mac.

well, i use fruity loops and live and reaktor
if none of those are for mac, im not getting one any time soon. i do use cubase though, but i dont want to trade off really. one of these days ill probably get a mac, since overall they are better for this sort of thing. just depends on whats comfortable though.
dunno. doesnt help much :p
