Vivian and I enjoyed the front row at the Regina Spektor concert at the House of Blues in Dallas thanks to Meredith & Sam !!!
Not gonna lie, I had a hard time parting with my regular camera but rules are rules- and you can’t bring in a professional camera to the concert. I guess it was about time to learn how to use my point and shoot and I learned very quickly that my ISO only goes up to 400!
Opening act was Only Son. Lyrically, he was a male version of Regina and he was a great compliment to her show.
Regina was beyond awesome in person and just sounds amazing on the piano and with her guitar. My favorite part was seeing how expressive she was when she sang – and she has such a range that it blows me away!
This is “That Time”.
And this is “Hotel Song”.
And a geek note: The video “That Time” was originally recorded vertically and I used MPlayer to rotate it counterclockwise with the following code:
mencoder -vf rotate=1 -o OUTPUT.AVI -oac copy -ovc lavc INPUT.AVI
