O, it truly was a wonderful night! There was so much going on it would be impossible to cover it all here in the blog, so I am just going to post a few photos so you can get a sense of the party. If you weren't able to make it then stay tuned we are already planning our next event, which will feature more bands.
The night began with the Soulutions, although they were missing their drummer and bassist. No problem Nathaniel and a couple others from the audience sat in and helped them out.
Jermain singing. He is a great songwriter and really has command of the stage.
Diana, the violinist was amazing. BBV would love to have her come in and lay down some parts on our new material.
For their last song, Jermain and Willie, preformed "Burning" with Jermain on the acoustic guitar. It was very moving and truly demonstrated their songwriting skills.
After the Soulutions, Elizabeth Coirden took the stage with her unique stand up comedy, tonight killin the audience with her "Buddhist" material. And she was a hit! Animated and hilarious she didn't fail to keep the crowd laughing!
Nathaniel, the MC, kept the party going with jokes and introductions. He also lead the art auction and costume contest. And filled in as the drummer for the Soulutions, man, he was busy!
Rigdzen, as the renaissance man, giving Tarot readings
David, the advocate, warmed the crowd with an introduction to the activities of Blinded By View and our vision of creating a professional recording studio.
The crowd getting ready for Harbinger
Harbinger rocking out! Check out their awesome costumes!
After Harbinger the night opened up into a free form jam session-slash-open mic. Just about everyone was a musician so we all got together and jammed.
So it was a brilliant success, a great time and simply enjoyable. We'll be having another party in about a month, so stay tuned and let us know if you want to preform.
Maybe it would be asked why we throw these parties. The reason being is that we are about to begin the renovation of this old studio where the parties are held into the new design, in the photo below. The parties are a way to introduce people to Blinded By View, make connections and if possible raise a little money. More than anything the parties are a way for us to make musical connections, which we need as a production company. And also we feel the parties keep the energy moving in the space that is set for the renovation, and by keeping that energy moving we feel it helps move us forward into the actual construction phase otherwise the space would be sitting their stagnant and useless.
