Floater

Rob Wynia

Last night I went to see Floater (again) at the Rogue Theatre. This show was very different from my prior two experiences at the same place. The crowd, this time, was tiny as Floater was the opening band (for Days of the New). If Floater was the headliner the place would have been packed. Many, of the few concert goers, left after Floater’s short set of only about six or seven songs.

The pic above I took from my car at midnight. Rob Wynia, of Floater, is standing under the marquee and talking with some other guys. Floater is playing an acoustic set tonight, but I will pass since it will probably be another mini set list.

Here is a video I took of them doing “Weightless” off their “Stone by Stone” CD. The lighting in the Rogue Theatre (in Grants Pass, almost an hour north of Ashland on I-5) was really bad, but the audio is pretty good (on this song anyway). There were many audio problems during the night including Rob’s mic not working for half of one song and annoying feedback during much of Days of the New’s performance.

Here is another Floater picture for you. And below is an HD video I took on my LX3 at the show. I forgot to follow my own advice and zoom before starting the video, but given my state of mind at the time it’s amazing that I remembered to take any pictures or a video. 😉

The above video is Floater performing “Ghost in the Making” off of their Stone by Stone CD. This live performance at the Rogue Theatre in Grants Pass, Oregon on May 29, 2009 features an extended jam beginning at about minute 5 in this video.

I experienced Floater for the second time on May 29, 2009 at the Rogue Theatre in Grants Pass, a little over an hour to the northwest of Ashland.

The first time I saw them was November of 2008 at the same venue.
