Few fresh videos from the first set of our House of Blues gig in Boston a couple weeks ago ... camera was literally sitting on the left main, so it shakes with the kick drums and it's dark in that room, besides, but ... good stuff and a good mix.

Hey Vic, really nice as always! But you need to get one of those "Body Boom" contraptions so you can strap it on Jimbo so I can watch his chops throughout! LOL!
Good times!
Gil

The guy up front whose hand you keep seeing coming into the frame (Spinning Charlie) eventually blocked Jim completely from the camera's viewpoint, much to his dismay. No usable "Money Money" or "El Paso" from the shoot, because he goes crazy when he's singing and the camera's on me ... the big ham.
Cameraman had a little too much fun to be able to shoot the second set ... LOL
I just transferred some good HD footage from last spring which has some nice closeups of Jim, will get that done eventually.

Oh man, fun times can cause forgetfullness I know. I <dont> remember one particular show The Pranksters played. Wont go into detail, but I thought I was standing "inside" a Christmas tree. Fortunately, I pulled it off and it was third set. I'll check out the Jimbo footage you referenced. Maybe start a Jimbo fan club!
