Haley touring with PMJ -- Feb 2015 - March 2016 (& March 2017)

[Tusk]

Nice compilation video, Tusk. The graphics are cool, too. Many thanks.
Does the order of songs in your video reflect the order that the setlist was performed?

Videos are posted in order (exception is Habits, though, I'm fairly sure it's in the right spot in the order)

I regret not having video of Mykal and Von, but honestly top of my mind was the audio was going to be ruined because I was so close to the speakers, and Mykal sings realllly loud and I was disinterested with Von. That's why I left his "Shake it off" at the end, of all the curtain calls to give him some time

I was also conscious of the fans behind me, combined with arm fatigue, I knew I would have to be selective how many times I raised my camcorder to record

(Mykal has his spots in group songs, like the previously unlisted "Maps" I didn't post that whole performance because the camcorder's viewer accidentally closed, losing the rest of the performance )

Christopher Erk has a little dance sequence with Ariana in "Fancy", but it was an awkward and short edit that didn't fit to use in the compilation (sorry Commish :/ )

All About that Bass, felt like a no brainer to keep the whole performance because of how hot this updated cover is

Here's my compilation video, clips from all the previously posted performances plus 5 clips not posted before

Love the compilation video Tusk! Great job and really gave me the feeling of what it would be like to be in the audience for the show!

[My Alter Ego]

Thanks! It was not only a summation, but a way to use clips I wouldn't have posted by themselves otherwise. Hopefully every one caught Casey's amazing melodica solo of "Amazing Grace" as the end credits ran

I added a song list plus their beginning times in the video description

17:50 Scott Solo/Shake it Up
21:43 All About That Bass
26:02 Amazing Grace/Credits

Great job, Tusk! And you're right about Casey's melodica solo. I think this is the first time that I've heard him play melodica in which he took what he was playing seriously, and did a really nice job. (Most of his melodica bits are sort of "one offs.")

Himm said that you're a "real pro" but wouldn't that suggest you're making living through this -- and I think you're not. Perhaps it's time for a return of a definition of "amateur" that focuses on the "to love" infinitive that it originally had. There was a time when "amateurs" were given a much, much higher status, because they pursued their "love" because -- well, because they loved what they were doing and they were, at the very least, very, very good at it.

[Tusk]

The use of the beginning notes of the Beatles' "All You Need is Love" at the start of the video was not accidental

(actually a bit of consternation using it because of the possibility of a copyright hit . Hopefully I used few enough seconds to get below whatever the threshold is to get tagged )

The intro I began with was pretty cheesy, the title, "Postmodern Jukebox Comes to England" colored red white and blue, animated....

After several trial & errors, I decided a more simple and basic approach is most effective. Red, white and blue could represent several countries including France and the US , it made more sense to use a Union Jack, more identifiable with England.

Finally, shortening the title, "PMJ in the UK", using abbreviations for a stronger more direct message, as well as a stronger design element

That was just fantastic, Tusk! Thanks…and there was enough of Erk at the beginning and toward the end to make me happy

I thought it was time to establish a thread for the upcoming PMJ tour in the US and Canada especially since we have a good hint that Haley will participate.

We're very excited to announce that Ariana Savalas will be joining us on our North American tour! Ariana's amazing stage presence, smoky voice, and audience, ahem, *interaction* was a definite highlight of this past European tour, so we can't wait to see what new tricks she has up her sleeve this time around!
We're going to be announcing each of the 12 vocalists that will be appearing throughout our North American tour over the next few weeks. Stay tuned, and get tix here: http://www.pmjlive.com

Per Wiki

Savalas was born in Los Angeles but was raised in Minnesota following her father's death.[2] She studied Shakespeare and acting at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London and is a member of Playhouse West, a repertory theater directed by Jeff Goldblum.[3] Before turning to jazz, Savalas toured and recorded in Europe as a pop singer in her teens with European producer Jack White.

...Savalas began her music career in Los Angeles as a singer/songwriter playing venues on the Sunset Strip such as the Whisky a Go-Go and Hard Rock Cafe before quickly transitioning into jazz. Her first jazz EP, "Sophisticated Lady", is a combination of Savalas' original compositions as well as two standards from the Great American Songbook, including the song Sophisticated Lady by Duke Ellington, Mitchell Parish, and Irving Mills which she named the record after.

...Ariana Savalas is the youngest daughter of Telly and Julie Savalas .

TV's Kojak - I thought I recognized that Savalas Name.

In 1977 during the last season of Kojak, he met Julie Hovland, a travel agent from Minnesota. They were married in 1984 and had two children together, Christian and Ariana. Julie and Telly remained married until his death. Christian Savalas is an actor, singer and songwriter. Ariana Savalas is an actress and singer/songwriter. Julie Savalas is an inventor and artist.
