Who's That?
Ah, the joy's of having a new mini DV cam: busting out the old tapes!
I've shot a lot of footage over the past few years in mini DV (digital video), and have quite a collection of tapes now, covering all different kinds of things. Trips to Japan, welding videos, reckless driving, you name it, we've tried to capture it. Then! All the cameras went away. Somewhere, and I have no idea how this happened, my brother's suddenly went missing. Then our camera at work broke down. All this great media, no way to play it.
Until now! Mini DV cameras are being phased out, but that doesn't mean they're a bad product. No! They're quite great, taking great videos with great audio, all at a very affordable price. Case in point: before coming to Japan, I decided to get a better camera to eliminate the issues I was having with my personal digital camera. Managed to pick up a really nice Sony model for $215 after discounts at a local Circuit City. Not too shabby!
So today I offer a brown present from summer 2006: a totally brown Maxass live performance at the Pearl nightclub in Dayton. One of our finer performances, despite the fact we were down a member: our bassist got sick as a dog and had to be picked up by his folks prior to playing. We played anyway, and our old man even drove up from Cincy for the show.
Hit the jump for the song.
Who's that? Bu duba duba doo!
