Merry Christmas

Posted in Information by tramsessions on December 25, 2009

Merry Christmas Southern Hemisphere!

Nick and I wish you all a great day! We have already celebrated christmas, gotten our presents, eaten meatballs (of course), ham, salmon, herring, been drinking schnapps, glögg and beer, played board-games and watched Donald Duck. Yes, we watch Donald Duck on christmas. Crazy huh!?

Big apologies for the lack of updates, especially to Courtney for having too wait sooooo long for her video to come up. It will come as soon as my computer decide to be kind to me. We really hope that all of you can forgive us, and I think you should, after all it’s christmas time!

Have to run, we gonna have a snowball fight, make an igloo and I really have to take out the polar bear for a walk. Adieu.

Touched By A Parsnip – Stand By Tram (ts#5)

Posted in Sessions, Tram ? by tramsessions on December 10, 2009

Feels like a while ago.

As night fell over Melbourne we met up with the people from Touched By A Parsnip outside the State Library. We geared up, setting up our “Poor Man’s Steadicam”, testing tape, testing microphone, testing that Björn could take photos. And suddenly we were on a tram, the microphone was not plugged in and the camera shut down. Luckily the next stop was the last stop on that line. Out on the station we tried to sort out the problems while the band sang us a song about the state of technology. After some tinkering we had the gear ready again, this time fully working and we got on the tram and travelled all the way somewhere from above La Trobe and down to St Kilda Road.

Touched By A Parsnip improvised greatly and got the commuters on board to sing as well! Here’s the second song from the session, “Stand By Tram”.

Yet again we’re off to do some filming. This time it’s a improv jazz band that will be the main act. They show up, improvise and create a new piece every time. Very Exciting! Stay tune to keep up with the action.
