In the evening () I’m off to a neo-folk session at the Steam Packet Inn, Totnes, with Robin from #buzz and some other musicians. Come along if you’re interested in playing trad/new trad/new medieval tunes!
Just getting the latest #buzz rehearsal started! We’re practising for our next gig at St. Mary’s church
Some cracking fiddle playing from this supremely talented, weird “baroque” group:

sophiedennis that sounds great, I’m a bit far away though :) Have a good time!
Thanks to everyone who came, btw. Felt like a welcoming, responsive audience and really made the atmosphere great! #buzz

Optimal video-splitting workflow on a mac:
- In Logic/QuickTime 7, figure out each of the ranges of video you want
- Open the movie in QuickTime 10
- Cmd + T to enter trim mode
- Set the handles to your range
- Cmd + shift + S to save as
- Close movie (export will continue)
- Repeat from 2 until complete
I’m somewhat surprised there’s no easy, simple way to splice a video into multiple parts on a mac.
Current status: mangling a 4GB iPad 2 (!!) video of our first #buzz concert into little YouTube snippets
The boot is full of guitar repairs (courtesy of Teign Music), including one which looks like a terrifying six-eyed guitar monster with scary teeth.
Congratulations on thesession.org’s new release Jeremy Keith! Looking great, and it’s nice to see hentry on the activity feed :)
The concert was a success! Videos coming soon. Not too bad a turnout for our first gig.
Checked in to St Mary's church, Totnes for our Buzz gig today
Super excited about our Buzz concert tomorrow. , St. Mary’s Church, Totnes. Hope to see you there!
Checked in to Arbeau’s Orchesograhie. Playing early #music directly from the source is so rewarding.
Today I’ve gone from having almost no #gurdy wood to having almost all of my gurdy wood! Some exciting photos:
Unpacked, grouped:
Plywood for the wheels being cut:
And best of all, a gurdy egg made from all the tape used to package the materials!

I'm starting to enjoy listening to live recordings of bands instead of their recorded work!

Brennan Novak I love live albums. I always get the feeling they could have fitted an extra song on if they took all the applause out though :)
Listening to @han’s 2010 dConstruct talk whilst wrestling with my printer. It will print my gurdy plans. I will make it.
Rosa das Rosas, an excerpt from the Buzz rehearsal today. If you like it, come along to our concert on the 8th!
