New video, where I worked the last ten years of my career. Got to see a few familiar faces. :cool:

The tech guys who do the weekly Waveform Podcast (Marquez Brownlee's crew) all flew to Spain to see the recent total eclipse, and they video'd it in real time with ground shots, filtered shots with a 500mm, and a shot taken from a drone that showed the "totality shadow" racing across the valley...

I kinda forgot about Marius, then after watching this realized I hadn't subscribed! Coolest gift exchange on the planet, where four talented makers/creators make things for each other; wow: Here he makes the world's most precise set of VixBits™:

Techno... on a Jaws Harp. :oops:

I bought the first two albums from the brilliantly-named "Stick Men" (two Chapman Stick players, and a drummer! ), this is the first time I've seen them on video. Turns out they have a boxed set coming out and are on tour (Tony Levin is 80, and just came off an anniversary tour for King Crimson).

An unusual mashup I missed, 5 years ago: Nina Haugen/A-Ha, by Pomplamoose.

What is this? I'm old enough to remember the Beatles' debut on Ed Sullivan, and this song was not played. In fact, I haven't heard it before.

EweTube just tickled a long-forgotten synapse! I danced my ass off to this record back in college, and it got me dancing again tonight (sorry about the visual). Flamenco Disco!

And I'll post this one here, just because and I saw it tonight. Leonid and Friends, the Russian/Ukranian cover band who loves Chicago as much as I do, performing their best song. The bass player and drummer, and "hot chick" (can't remember her name) are the only members I recognize anymore.

Tenor/flautist for Chicago, founding member. He hasn't been actively playing with them for awhile now, battling illness. Chicago started out as a rock band with horns, drifting into experimental/pop/jazz, then a pop/rock juggernaut, then a more easy-listening band with a durable power-ballad...

Angine de Zeppeline, with some Windows and EVH thrown in!

It was pointed out to me on another forum that they're mostly AI generated; also blowing paint and glitter into someone's eyes could be grounds for lawsuits. Mea Culpa.

Porch Pirates, redux: EDIT: And now the Al Gore Rhythm is filling up my EweTube with porch pirate poking; and I haven't had this much fun on a Friday since I quit dating! Some observations: - 90+% of porch pirates (PP) are obese - The packages with slightly longer det times, so...

Aw, man. RIP Ike Willis. :confused:
