Hey guys,

I'm hard at work on a bunch of iPad-centric projects (got to make that toy earn its keep!) including an animated music video and a remix. In the meantime, here's a slideshow/video I did using the Avid Studio app that puts together all the photos from our studio recording session for Tortoise last year:



You can see the pile of DIY pedals I had at my feet for various songs and my old Japanese "Saturn" guitar (not to mention the empty scotch bottles. Ha)!

Ha! Thanks! We just happened to have the perfect amount of photos from the studio to fit that song...I took a video camera with us when we were there, but didn't remember any tape (it was a mini DV cam at the time...)!

Yeah I just ran it through twice more for no other reason than the song - it's stuck in my head, in a good way.

And then I realized, since I have Tortoise loaded on my work laptop, I can just listen to the whole album. :mrgreen:

Ha! That's awesome... It's a strange tune that we don't really play live, but I want to start.

Oh, and play the video as much as you want...we could use the views! :wink:

Nice video. I'm loving Dog is Blue more and more each time I hear/see your stuff.

It also looks like you got John Lennon to engineer the session? :shock: :lol: Damn dude...

I waited all day to hear this because I couldn't fire it up at work.

Awww, man. I really love this. Great montage, Paul. 8)

Awesome, Paul. Love the the old timely, chain-gang, slave-chant feel of the song. Could be the anthem for our generation's first world depression. I see a video of zombie-like people shuffling through Walmart on cell phones or crying in agony over a dead iPhone or riotIng in a Starbucks at closing time over loss of a wifi signal. I mean that all in a good way.

Mist be this ipad. If I wasn't so damn lazy right now I would stand up, walk 8 feet to my left, sit down and pull this site up on a proper computer. Maybe later :roll:

Thanks! You can tell by all the 9v battery packaging that my power adapters weren't playing well with the studio's electrical...

Actually Paul I just went on your website to check it out. I decided to use my brain and do that :oops:

Totally cool. Very enchanting :mrgreen: I thought of some old blues chants here in the South from waaaaay back that I have heard on some old scratchy record. Well I thought of exactly what Rob thought but he beat me to it 8) :lol:

Awesome! Thanks for checking it out. We want to find a way to start playing this one live with just the two of us---I'm thinking as an intro to our set or something.

We've got lots of fun video stuff on the way. I've mostly just been trying to push my iPad/iPhone into productive territory.

When you get famous and are a household name there will be the "lost Tortoise session" tapes that are found :mrgreen:

Ha! I wish...any "lost sessions" would have required there being a working video camera there. I have some odds and sods from the first album but that was all in my living room, so it's not very exciting.

Ha! Thanks! My hair's a little shorter now, but I've replaced it with a hefty beard, so I'm probably just as angry looking.
