morst's PITOWN 2007 (pt 7)
Late Night Saturday, Sept 8, 2007
Well, it's been 6 months since the campout, so we're closer to the 2008 one than the 2007 one. I guess it's about time to wrap up the 2007 blog. . .
By now you all know the scheme for these "Porchstock" deals, late night jams after Pappy and Harriet's closes, lots of audience participation, everyone havin' a ball just hanging out, not wanting the fun to end. Saturday night's 'stock was no exception. The Hackensaw and Dark Meat boys were rippin' it up with Johnny and the rest by the time I got there after Jason Molina's set. I had not seen Dark Meat's show due to being indoors with the Gerg, Jon, Victorbands, so I was a little surprised to see the slide trombone as the featured solo instrument. As usual, my photos are blurry and weird, but they do kinda capture the moment, especially when the moment is blurry and weird!
The porchstock festivities seemed to end when Johnny took off, but then a little bit later, he came back for more...
That was when the Hickman-Morst duo made our debut! Johnny and I sang several tunes together, and had a good 'ol time!
Some of it even sounds halfway decent on my audio recording, and I know there is at least one video of it too. As usual, I didn't get to sleep until the sun was already up, so I have some neat photos of the sunrise.
After getting some ZZZ's, while waiting for the traveling crew to achieve critical mass, I went over to P&H's for a view of the aftermath, and to snap some photos of the posters and other decorations on the walls there.
When we finally motivated, we headed down the hill, and didn't get farther than the excellent Mexican restaurant. One very good meal later, we headed down the hill and back out I-10 to the Redlands area, back to the first annual Fi-Stock at Lo-Fi Studios in lovely Loma Linda CA - home of the baby with the baboon heart!
Fi-Stock began with Maria Baglien giving the group a tour of the studio where Johnny recorded Palmhenge, then a short set of solo acoustic tunes from Chris LeRoy. It continued with a recorded discussion and storytelling session featuring the crumbs in attendance, for use as a podcast for Chris's "Songbook" page, and finished with a sing-along session, much like the Porchstock tradition, but this was recorded in multitrack digital audio by Maria! Of couse I also ran my two-track recorder, since I had gotten this far. . . so I have some fun excerpts to share. . . Let's see. .
