| J-Card Comment | ProgDay 2002 Preshow Band 3 - French TV Local 506, Chapel Hill, NC Aug 30th, 2002 (actually Aug 31st, as French TV didn't hit the stage until after midnight) approx 12:15am-1:45am Mike Sary - bass Warren Dale - keyboards, woodwinds Chris Smith - guitar, violin Chris Vincent - drums This is recording #4 of the "ProgDay Archives" project (#1 was the Forever Einstein @ ProgDay '03 torrent, but I didn't realize at the time that that was the start of a whole series, due to popular demand...) #2 was the first portion of this ProgDay Preshow, the Dark Aether Project's set #3 was the second band of this Preshow, Smokin' Granny #4 (this recording) wraps up the ProgDay '02 Preshow NOTE: If you are planning on downloading all three sets of this Preshow and burning them to CD, the whole thing will fit on three CDRs if you put the first song of French TV's set on the same disc as Smokin' Granny's set. 1. That Thing on the Wall (9:56) 2. Presage (by Trap) (7:31) 3. Under the Big W (13:25) 4. Viable Tissue Matter (12:59) 5. Violence of Amateurs medley (15:53) (incl. Joosan Lost/The Fate, The Odessa Steps Sequence, Mail Order Quarks, The Secret Life of Walter Riddle and the Hawaiian War Chant) 6. And the Dead Dog Leapt Up and (7:21) Flew Around the Room 7. Hey! Real Executives Jump from (6:47) the 50th floor! (incl. Locomotive Breath intro) 8. Black Day, White Light / (11:31) Friendly Enzymes combo (with Tales from Topographic Oceans conclusion) 9. band intros (1:02) Total Time: 86:29 (If you put "That Thing on the Wall" on the same disc as the Smokin' Granny set - see NOTE above - then the total time for this disc comes out to 76:33) Aud > Cassette > CoolEdit > WAV > CDR > EAC > WAV > FLAC Frontend > FLAC Audience recording, taped with a Sony TCS-580V handheld tape recorder with built-in microphones (sitting on table about 20 feet from stage). Recorded to Maxell XLII 90 min tape. Converted to WAV using an Onkyo TA-RW311 tape deck fed into an Compac Presario PC, using Cool Edit 96. Converted to FLAC using the FLAC Frontend program. The sound quality isn't the absolute greatest, but it's certainly listenable. Most of the songs in this show come from French TV's seventh album, "The Case Against Art", although they sprinkled in songs from several of their previous albums. They're all worth getting, as are the later albums (I think they're up to #9 by now). I particularly recommend "French TV 6: The Violence of Amateurs", as it remains my favorite. And attend ProgDay if you possibly can. Every ticket sold helps the festival a lot. No one is getting rich off the festival - the financial backers are usually lucky if they break even. If I can drive 8 hours each way to go, I don't want to hear any excuses from you. It's the best prog show around.

The ProgDay Archives will return with...I dunno yet. I'll pick out something good. Maybe the Muffins '01 and '02 sets. |
