REALLY rough around the fringes! Indie rock live at Forbidden City!
Details:
️ It
was a hot and steamy night last Monday at Forbidden City. Three local
bands and one from Cincinnati were on the bill. Things started out okay
with the first band, The Shoobies, but really started to melt down,
quite literally, while Manager was playing. The laptop I use to record
with overheated and started to glitch out on me. I propped it up to get
better airflow and fanned it with my laptop case til the set was over.
During the break, I shut down everything but my recording software in
the hope that this would reduce the load enough to troop through the
rest or the evening.
️ It
seems to have worked because the recording I made of the Cincinnati
band, Lung, worked out fine with no glitches. But the fun wasn't over!
During the last set with Dong Vegan, the PA melted down during the
first song. I made a few adjustments (turned everything down a li'le
bit) and we were back on track again!
️ So,
even though a couple of the sets were messed up, I'll play 'em anyways.
I try to catch the spirit of an event in my recordings as much as the
performances and this will be a true portrait of a hot, loud evening at
Forbidden City!

Forbidden City seems to be filling the void left by the closing of
Vibrafusion Labs as a downtown indie event spot.
So, for the remainder of the show, I'll replay another event from there
that happened about a year ago.
Unfortunately, MixCloud
doesn't provide a direct method to download
their content. But where there's a void, someone will figure
out a way to fill it!
If you really want to download these podcasts, there are
various ways that this can be accomplished:
I found a
handy page that covers these various ways for Firefox and Chrome web
browsers as well as a web based form that'll work for everyone else. Go
