The above link provides footage of the gig at The Barkett
Unfortunately the multi-stage cameras were not working last night due to a technical hitch .... tis the Modern World! But that didn't put me off at all. Just put the tablet in far corner and filmed from the back!
This was the first official gig with the Takamine G-Series 6 string that I bought in Lyon whilst the Beast (Gretsch 12 string falcon) is having some repairs done. I think the Takamine sounded great! We decided to mic it up with a Rode NT-5 microphone and it picked up the tone beautifully. Must say I am enjoying playing the 6 string, I've been a 12 string player for quite some time!
It was great to be the feature act at The Barkett- I love this venue, the owner is a lovely guy and the bar staff are really nice and accommodating. I played virtually every song from the new album, The Light Shines Through The Darkness, and really enjoyed playing them live, raw and acoustic, stripped back and laid bare! The crowd were warm, a mixture of Berliners and expats from Tenerife, Alabama, Chicago and Denver. They listened, chatted and appreciated the songs.
I have to say I do love the atmosphere in Berlin, the music scene is vibrant, some extremely talented performers taking to the stage.
Well done one and all, and Thank you Michael for welcoming me to The Barkett.
Until next time .....
Tonight ... Lagari!
