Thank you Jim! Recorded straight to my iPad. When I’m directly in front of it on my patio, I have to strum pretty hard to get a good signal. The  cinderblock walls and open air really muffle the tones. Plus I have room to throw my elbows in the creepy storage  halls ha!

Good, sir.  Please reserve the bridal suite for me.

Uncle, this will not be the Hotel California unlike last year, we want you leave, but satisfied. BYO food, adult beverage, sleeping bags(that in no way implies who you sleep with, as you know Uncle, disclaimers are vital) .....cement floors and a metal roof this year, yes, improvements by leaps and bounds. It is a place at night that makes a lot of spooky sounds, what with piles of storage shifting, the metal walls and ceilings cracking as the temperature changes, rats! If I told you about the CIA, well you know. A total  ad lib. song, made it up under the pressure of having to go to work and people showing up. But the acoustics are amazing, they really carry even as I walked away to turn the lights back on with motion. I think I’ll do some jamming there, won’t bother anybody except you guys. Thanks Uncle, that meant a lot!

Lots of bodies here, as the name implies...Self Storage. I have deluxe 10’X10’ units reserved, each could occupy 10 festival attendees. We’re ready this year, a lot unlike last year. Thanks Dave!

Thanks Danny! I hope you get some relief, this is probably the worse time of year and everybody wants it off!

I watched again Richard. I liked the parallel universe part toward the end. Good use of sound effects too. Like UJ’s box sound.

Radiating Heat whit That UJ box ! exspected a more booming acoustic thow ! but nevertheless verry exspirimental & visual  exstravaganza! Thanks Richard!!

Who knows what lurks behind those doors in a storage facility!! I do like the acoustics though.

IS that the Califest hotel??  

That is kind of a spooky place at 5 AM.  Do you feel like you are being watched?  Looks like Guantanamo Bay.  Hmm.  Are you CIA? 

Richard, this is a really good acoustic and vocal song.  A lot of heart and a lot of soul.

Self Storage. You need a rest Richard. Is that our hotel again for Califest?
