i've had some requests 2 liberate more live music...
so 4 those of u who have a SoundClick account i've posted a riveting set from Iowa City, IA...

in October 07 we did a set of Catholic music @ the Yacht Club in IC...
now this club is right on the campus of the University of Iowa...a Big 10 school...
as u can hear, the kids dig funky music no matter what the message is...the 5 years i lived there i alway played my music, and spoke of Christ and all the mysteries, but i dig jazz and soul...so when heard this way, the people would listen...

the 6 songs here can b downloaded 4 free, but u must have an account...here is some information on this website...Soundclick.com

u don't have 2 b a musician 2 join, u can b a listener which gives u access 2 the music ...i'm going 2 b using SoundClick 2 release bootleg material and future jams...so if u dig what we r doing here, sign up, it's free

cool? here is the link 2 the Yacht Club Show...just click on the arrow pointing down

recording notes...
-source is audio from a camcoder
-some audience chatter can b heard at times
-EQ and compression added in Logix Express

Jamie Hopkins - drums
Ben Soltau - bass
BJ Jaggers - guitar
m3 - keys n vox
AD - rapper

here is some video footage from this gig...
