Finally! After several failed attempts, I’ve come away with a Double Dagger recording that I am happy with…for all those who give the soundman shit, always remember that the soundman is worth his weight in gold and when you get a good one, don’t be an ass and blame him when the show doesn’t go the way you planned. The soundguys at The Ottobar are always top notch (Brooks, Rob, and the guy at this show…wish I had gotten his name).

The video, on the other hand, is less than spectacular…in fact, turn off one light and the whole thing would have been pitch black. The only saving grace for the video is that the audio is taken from my external mics. At the risk of being sentimental, I thought it was great that immediately after the song, Luxury Condos for the Poor, which closed the set, Denny came from behind the drums to point out his father in the audience, thank him, and let everyone know that he was doing this shit before any of them were even born.

Happy Birthday Denny! And thanks to Double Dagger for affording me the opportunity to record their music.
