[QUOTE="John Halliburton, post: 41478, member: 8"] Re: Why we do this.... Exaclty. I love what I do, apparently I have some talent for it, and when my "Big Four" come together like they did this past weekend-great room, good system, good knob twisting, and great talent(with quality rigs), the audience really appreciate it and have a great evening. Here's a Youtube link to a set by Liz Carroll and Cormac Mccarthy. Liz needs no intro, one of the great Irish fiddlers in the world, and local Chicagoan. Cormac is a young brilliant pianist and son of Johnny Mccarthy, another great Irish fiddler and flute player, who played and was in attendance as well. Also playing this show were Matt Cranich, Jackie Daly, and Paul de Grae, and finishing the evening were the great Martin Hayes and Dennis Cahill. All were spot on, bringing their A game, however you want to describe it, and all of them hung around to watch each other's set, which doesn't happen all the time. They'd only been working on their new material for a couple of weeks. Liz has a Shure SM86 on the tall boom stand, and is running a LR Baggs bridge pickup into their acoustic DI preamp. The old grand piano has a pair of Crown CM700 over the open hammer area at quarter stick. The BMS coax wedges are obvious, the video camera is picking up the right house Danley designed Trik loudspeaker, I suspect about 25' away. A bit of actual panning too, Liz is just a bit stronger on the house right side, Cormac a bit stronger on the left, hence the video mix reflecting the fact that Liz actually sounds a bit strong.
