Yeah, I didn't put it up.
However what I did like is that it shows the band live at a gig not just another video that has been over dubbed with audio from a studio.

IMO it's good for a Youtube video, but I'n not that sure it's promotional-video good. I'm no expert though.

In any case your playing and singing (and the whole band's) are really really good! The band is really tight and the sound seems well done (again, for a youtube video, which is usually worse than reality).

+1 for Blue Dawn! :cool:

I should have made it clear from the first post, this was taken by a guy who just really likes the band and has been to loads of gigs. He gave it to me last night and I stuck it up on YouTube to see what it would be like.

The "high quality” is to do with the size of clip as he had done a low quality one to keep the MB smaller and was not in reference to the content.

What I liked about it is the "live feel" no fancy camera's or sound recording equipment just show's the band as you would see us on any of our gigs.

Its something I get asked for all the time by Brides "is there anything on you tube so we can see the band?" we play all over the country so it’s not always easy to come see us before they book. Most bands put up really bad demo's of them playing a few covers I don’t think there is many in Ireland brave enough to float this type of you tube clip.

I have a video shoot planned for later in the year to do more or less the same thing but do it with 3-4 cameras but this might do until then.

Thanks Rafael! I really do love that bass

Great compilation! :)

I like Your band very much Man!

DeJaGroove looks to me like one professional party band!

The Best compliments to all musicians, but especially take care of Your singer, she's very important for image of whole band, ...and also sings good, of course! ;)

Like the set list too, ...You did it well at "You can call me Al", well done Man, ...and yes, ...nice bass You got there! :)

If people are asking for a youtube video then this will for sure be better than what they expect! so in that scenario it does suit you very nicely. If I saw that I'd certainly say the band is great.

As to "You Can Call Me Al " part ,just so you know.... when that was recorded the bass player only played the solo part half way. Second half of it was the first running backwards . I think your band is awesome ! Very nicely done .

I have to say, this was the FIRST band video on this forum, that I watched in it's entirety. Let's not be so critical of the sound quality, as this shows a great band giving the people what they want. Great players, and multiple lead vocalists ensure a very versatile band. There were a few songs that weren't familiar to me, but maybe they are more familiar to your Irish audience.

Again, GREAT JOB!

I dig it! Who cares about the sound quality, it shows that you guys are tight, have great vocals and look like a blast to watch.

That's true, ...but DTG did it through nice improvisation, so I think everything is just fine! ;)
