Alright guys. Just some personal point of view of debriefing for the performance last Saturday. There are several things needed to point out just for future references.

Well, in case we are needed to bring ourselves our own equipments, we definitely are required to bring a separate PA system for vocals. What we have actually were doing great but perhaps not enough for a large hall like that. As we have tested that day, if we try to lower down the dials for guitars, bass, and keyboard to make some room for vocals, the sound of drums would be the loudest one as vocals have already at the highest point.

For the mixer, in case the similar sudden incident happened, prepare to bring backup fuse, tools, whatever. Perhaps an AVR for that matter? lol. Or if coolstorybro enough, bring another mixer with our own power generator or something like that.

Funny things happened with the microphones. We even used improper mic. The best mic we have didn't make it appearance even tho we brought it! Hope this won't be repeated again.

Brian did tell me last time that vocals, like me, to say something when on the stage. My apology for being a newbie for this matter like stage performance. Truly, like in most cases, vocals are the ones who lead the group and do the talk. But I am inexperienced. Tho if we prepare the talks, whatever, I might be able to do so...

... and we didn't properly introduced each of us other than band introduction. Perhaps with all the troubles we had initially, we were kinda rushing with all the stuffs.

It's unfortunate that Nacchan has fallen ill on that day. Yuki was like a Godsend to help us with Don't Say Lazy and Listen!! along with her Mio cosplay m(_ _)m

To yafex, you got the voice but like you said, you didn't know much the songs of God Knows and Lost My Music so your pitching lari.

For other band mates, you guys are doing great. Brian looked cool with a cowboy hat and focusing on being a rhythm guitarist.

Despite being a drummer at the back, Chiaki was great with the drums. Minor mistakes were during Don't Say Lazy as initially it wasn't in our proper list of performance. All went perfectly nice tho to the end.

For Poni, your goreng was fantastic. I am glad to have a guy like this in the group. For your information, breathing through a horse mask wasn't that easy and yet you're able to play all songs on the stage while wearing that mask, fantastically.

For myclamyra, singing while playing bass is cool, man. I would love to try things like that in the future.

For Noir, from the spectators area below the stage there, you looked kinda a little bit far away from the others. Most probably because of the keyboard that has shorter power cable. Of all, your skills of playing keyboard is what I admired most.

Well, you all could play all songs almost perfectly and could cope with that sudden addition of songs easily which I salute most. I was only being a vocal for two songs but I admit that I almost exhausted after all that 'shouting' parts lol.

And not forgetting ultimaweaponx being the manager for that day. Doing the mixing, wiring and other stuffs. Kinda tough for being not enough sleep. すげええ〜

As a conclusion, despite what we had gone through, that was an awesome day. Perhaps not many people coming to the event but we did great. I still have some wishes here for at least to play some instruments (wanting to be able to play my violin dyingly).

Anyway, I guess we kinda taking some hiatus for some time?

can anyone give the schedule for this saturday? like time and place. we might have additional 2 vocalists to come along and they also have other things to do on that day.

What software did you use for recording? Not sure if recording from mic in on sound board is better than USB mic.

You can use VirtualDub.
