In the first recording I was in Cherokee park (an Olmsted park) and it wasn't nearly as intense as I expected. In that one I was parked on a hill and a bicycle zooms past. In the 2nd recording I was in an open area with isolated big trees and it was incredibly loud. My truck was on the side of the road with the microphone set on the toolbox. At some point a car drives past. It gives you a good idea of how loud it was. In a wave editor the pattern looks just like a pop song: http://www.psychicreform.com/Music/index.htm ____________________ www.psychicreform.com ____________________ "Be who you are... not what's cool." --Chef.

Orb/LX/Le Petit Orb - Live/DJ Dates
by Justin Gimblett 01 Apr '06

01 Apr '06

A full orb date in London ? Count me in! Checked out some net searches and although this July date is on the Fehlmann site, it is not on any KoKo club listings yet. Can't wait till it is ! How good for concerts is this year turning out to be? David Gilmour new solo album and tour - can't wait to see him in the Royal Albert Hall in May. Having already heard the BBC Radio 2 live broadcast with him playing some of what will be his set, this should be awesome. (Oh yeah, if anyone would like an MP3 of this live broadcast, I got a direct recording together of it. I can either upload it to the famous MStringer FTP that everyone loves (if he is ok with that) or anyone else's FTP, or I can get it added to my filelist for Soulseek. The only problem with soulseek is that I don't tend to be on it much at the moment. If you are interested in getting a copy one way or another, then private message me at gimberz at ntlworld dot com ) Is anyone else from the list going to see David Gilmour on his tour? Next we have Roger Walters headlining at Hyde Park in London on 1st of July - and he has confirmed he will be playing amongst his live set, the full dark side of the moon album. Wow! Just a shame I can't go to the Roger Walters one myself. Thanks for posting up about the US gigs - really enjoyed reading about them and am envious as hell of you all. Oh well, us UKers will get our revenge in July! regards Gimberz

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows who Mr. or Mrs. V. McDonald is, who is mentioned as one of the 'singers & players' on the Orbsession Volume One album. The only one I could find was Vincent McDonald, who is credited as photographer on Orblivion. Is this the same one? Cheers, Johan

IT will be down during the night for the next few weeks. I am having some strange noise from a HD and need to back up stuff. So, if you need to access it, it will be up from 6am EST till 10pm EST. So, get the files during those times. RMStringer +++++++++++++++++++ You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.

(Orb) Houston
by ivy 24 Mar '06

24 Mar '06

Made it to Houston with just enough time to check into my hotel and get to the show. I missed the name of the first act, but it sounded pretty good from the bathroom--where I was shocked to see an attendant--the last time I saw one of those was in radio city. (in Oklahoma, you're lucky if the toilet will flush.) I noticed an older woman, perhaps in her mid to late forties, with her teenie bopper daughter and friend, two very young orb fans. The mom, her body wrapped around her purse, looked disturbed as I heard her trying to persuade the kids to leave before midnight (much like an ugly/fat friend). Thomas Fehlmann came out, finally, and his set was great! This show was different from when I saw them in Lawrence Kansas. No scene outside the show, Alex didn't come out and dance very much, no taping the crowd. When Alex came out to play, the teenie boppers left (can you believe she made them miss the orb?). Alles Ist Schoen was a surprize to me. I loved Outlands. Lunik was fun. Because Before was soothing. The venue was small, it seemed like there were a lot of Houston regulars who were just there to be there. The crowd thinned out significantly when Fehlmann left the stage. The video was awesome--it was moving to see the anti-war protest footage during LFC. Which reminds me, die Amerikaner mÃ¼ssen Bush anklagen. I've never seen two happier dj's, dancing and just having a great time. My favorite was when Alex played the blue room reggae song. And Freebird :) oh, yeah, and I did get lost, after the show. ivy peach bush! --------------------------------- Yahoo! Messenger with Voice.

I dont have a setlist per se. for most of the groovetechs that I have i created text files with some minute and some second time intervals noted for different songs or types of music. a lot of it is general notation (i.e. ambient - 4:23 ~or~ aquarius/dub mix - 1.50) as I am not overly familiar with certain artists and songs. At times LX would describe tracks and artists he played over certain segments and those are noted as best as possible. these text files are what I used to help expediate the tracking process when I do get time to do it. if you would like a copy of them email me off list. I can zipp what I have and send them. travis I asked a friend who introduced me to The Orb "Have YOU ever been to electric lady land?" He responded wide eyed "Oh yeah! The Orb took me there and beyond..." > > Message: 9 > Date: Wed, 22 Mar 2006 17:51:32 -0600 > From: "Matt S" > Subject: Re: [Orb] Tracked LX Groovetech shows > To: "What were the skies like when you were young?" > > Message-ID: > > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" > > good question!! > > I was about to submit because I don't care as much about tracked shows as I > do setlists... any setlists from LX i would take. > > hopefully from these you can create tracked shows and/or make your own on > mixmeister or audacity! imagine that! >
