Hah. Recorded on one of those little flip video cameras stuck in a fake plant.

Groovy stuff Jack. I'd dig sitting there with a few beers watching Cowpilot! Those Flip video cameras are pretty good too by the looks of it.

Maybe it is my computer but it sounds a little muddy to me. Great playing by all though.

I would like to hear Brian up in the mix a bit myself.

Very cool, sounds great. Great line, Jack, and very nice presence in the mix, especially for a "low fi" recording. Then again, what else would ya expect from a Bongo?

Where is that? Looks like a corporate headquarters.

Texas Motor Speedway ballroom, nine floors up over the big track.

see how good a four string sounds

That bass ALWAYS sounds great...unless I forget to change the batteries (which is why I ended up playing the red 5er later).

Nah, it's not your comp. Flip Video combined with a GIANT space and the camera was actually behind the PA mains, so you're hearing mostly monitor vocals.

Hopefully Chris has some more.

I played that tune at a gig one time and towards the end of the night we were asked "can you guys play that song from Shrek again".

I've also lost count of the number of times I've introduced the song at gigs with "here's some Neil Diamond for ya", and people have yelled out "mate, you're wrong, that's a Monkees song"

A little musical knowledge is very dangerous for the average audience member.
