Raleigh First Responders Got Talent

Hello all. I am fairly new around here. Just wanted to post a video of a little contest I played at Sunday night. It was to raise money for the Raleigh Police Memorial Fund. We had not played together since the academy and the second song was completely unpracticed. I will say that I have a new found respect for those who play through the pa. I couldn't hear anything I was playing. The monitors were pretty spotty. Anyway, we won.

"Must Be Jelly" backing track

I'm working on "Must Be Jelly" by William Clarke, from the Blowin' Like Hell album. I love the groove, but I haven't been able to find a backing track with the same feel. Anybody have any ideas?
I can change the tempo and pitch, up to a point (the original is in D minor, I think).

Air sound when amplified

Posted Sun, 01/06/2013 - 06:37 by PatrickS

I recently amplified my A harp for the first time. Just messing around as I've only been playing about six months. When playing acoustic I listen carefully and hear no air. I know none is escaping around the harp. It is like the mic is picking up the sound of air going through the harp?

What up? Thanks Patrick

Then hearing Gary Smith's ideas to accompany them!

What a great way to begin a new year of submissions!

Garageband

Does anyone know if Garageband has the same capabilities as the Amazing Slow Downer? I have garageband and when I slow the tempo down it sounds like the pitch slows down as well, and some of my music won't slow town at all.

Your tone is smokin'. I like what you're doing on your instrumental. I really like the Big Walter licks.
