Re: LoopFest Santa Cruz



Good question. I believe Rick is first awaiting confirmation of whether Rainer will be able to make it. If so, then maybe Rainer would be willing to drive this event again. I thought it was a great idea, and would love to participate this year (I missed out last year because I was too involved in streaming the main event and recording).
 
BTW, this year I will not be streaming the main event to the internet again, nor will I be recording every performance direct from the mixer board. The time and attention to stream is tremendous, and the return on investment (1-10 people online listening) doesn't justify the effort.
 
I notified Rick that I would not being doing this, so that I can feel more part of the event this year. For the last few years, I have felt somewhat detached from the event because I've been chained to the recording/streaming mixer board. I am now looking forward to mingling about and meeting with many of you, talking about things, etc. I also won't be recording from the board. Instead, I'll be recording live from the room, with my digital recorder and two high quality stereo mics. I plan to just turn the recorder on and record for several hours at time, and then sort out the files after the event. So, if any of you want high quality, direct from board recordings of your performance, you may consider recording your own performance.  In any event, I will still make the live room recordings available via the web for those who grant permission to do so. I think it will be interesting this year to have a live room mix of the event.
 
In constrast, if someone is willing to record every perfoermance from the house mixer board, or even stream to the internet, and take ownership of either of these tasks, I'm sure Rick would not object, nor would I.

Are there plans to do NINJam events again this year?  I'm interested if there are.

Hello all,
 
Here is just the starter page to get the word out.
 
 
There are still some tentative venues, etc, but Rick is working on all of this. He has the master plan.

I think most common hotels on Ocean street or Pacific Ave would be fine. I may stay at the Best Western this year.  The year before last year I stayed at the Bay Front Inn...not bad.   The year before that I stayed at the Inn Cal on Ocean. I don't recommend that hotel, however.

Hi all - I'm planning to be at LoopFest in October.   Can anyone tell me what location is best for a hotel?  Does the Fest occur near the beach or closer to downtown?  I'd like to be as close to the action as possible!  Thanks in advance for your help.
