#16 on Livestream.com instead of Ustream.tv
http://andyroberts.me/podcast/16-livestream-instead-of-ustream
The final straw for Ustream came when I couldn’t get the broadcasting service to begin recording anything for podcast episode 16 last night. I was logged in and broadcasting live, but when I pressed the record button after a few seconds it came u with a ‘failed recording’ message repeatedly. Clearly there was no choice, the time had come to switch over to an alternative service and the one I had lined up as most promising to try next is Livestream.com andyroberts - live streaming video powered by Livestream So here’s the new bookmark for the Andy Roberts Podcast Live Show every Tuesday at 7.00pm : http://www.livestream.com/andyroberts The multiple interfaces for broadcasting are a little more complicated than I had been used to ( but anyway, Ustream made it more difficult recently) so I’m not up to speed yet and was definitely a little thrown out last night, but it won’t take too long to get the hang of it.
If you only ever listen to the downloaded podcasts in your own time then you shouldn’t notice any difference at all really, but you may like to try turning up to the live event once in a while, to see what it’s like. Apparently you don’t even need to register an account in order to join in the text chat there. On the performance itself, you will find a medley of Beatles songs and one Lennon solo sandwiched between a couple of original songs.

11 : Podcasting Andy Roberts Music
http://andyroberts.me/andy-roberts-music/11-podcasting-andy-roberts-music
Podcasting a day early with the Andy Roberts music podcast Episode 11 So this week’s podcast was recorded a day early, on the Monday instead of Tuesday, not that that will make much difference to podcast subscribers, who mostly seem to like to download the show about one week after it’s been published, but for those of you who might on occasion turn up for the live show at 7.00pm, I won’t be there at all some Tuesdays, and this was one of them. Knowing that I was effectively playing to an absent live audience had a curious effect on the performance, which I would describe as slightly more random in a creative sort of way, but Linda described as “less in the flow”. I was worried that it wouldn’t be good enough for me to want to put out at all, so I carried on after the half hour but in the end that just made it a bit more difficult to edit down to size, something I’d prefer not to do really. So the original full length video file saved over on Ustream is not worth keeping really, due to the failing daylight at this time of year on a cloudy September evening, and me not having bothered to find the lamp. I kind of like lurking in the dark though
Andy Roberts is being kept in the dark is the tracklist of links and show notes for Podcast Episode 11:Subscribe to the podcast RSS feed using the url: http://andyroberts.me/?feed=podcast Subscribe in iTunes: http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/andy-roberts/id378470885 You can also download the MP3 audio file which is 28.8Mb in size and 29 minutes 57 seconds in duration from this link 10 Andy Roberts Podcast Episode 11.mp3 Podcast Episode 11 Show Notes Show notes and information for Podcast Episode 11 broadcast on September 13th, published on September 14th 2010. 1) Century A Millenium song written by Andy Roberts around 1980
“Century is my song for the Millennium, written in the early eighties looking forward to the year 2000. It’s called “Century” because the term Millennium wasn’t so much in use then, nobody much had started thinking about it yet, and I was still writing COBOL computer programs with 2 digit years” 2) I Am The Way Song by Loudon Wainwright after Woodie Guthrie’s “Standing Down in New York Town”. Just noticed I played this not long ago, in podcast 7 oh well. 3) You Ain’t Goin’ Nowhere Bob Dylan Song from Greatest Hits Vol 2 4) Mondura Dam – Andy Roberts song I may have played this recently, not sure now, but anyway here it is again but this time on the 12 string guitar. Music and Lyrics by Andy Roberts.
5) Norwegian Wood – Beatles I kind of love/hate this song, so I’m trying to reinterpret it. The video below will be from a live performance at Havering Folk Club
6) Me and my Friend the Cat One of the early songs by Loudon Wainwright – performed on his birthday. Happy birthday Loudon. Next time I’ll remember the lyrics, OK.

Episode 8 Andy Roberts Plays 3 Beatles Songs
http://andyroberts.me/andy-roberts/8-andyroberts-podcast-beatles
Beatles songs from George, John and Paul feature in this week’s Andy Roberts podcast as well as a Steeleye Span folk song and some open tuned guitar noodling. All played on the 12 string guitar except the detuned 6 string instrumental. Since experimenting with open tuning, not something I normally burden myself with, I’ve hatched a plan to finish off the two songs I brought back from Cornwall, firstly by merging them into one and now by using the new open D tuning. But that’s for another week to try and demonstrate. This week, quite late in the day I decided to feature some Beatles songsĀ but didn’t feel like doing “A Day in The Life” or any of the early stuff so I ended up with one classic from each of the three great songwrites, George Harrison Paul McCartney and John Lennon. Just my personal choice, and two of them come from “The Beatles” double album, also known as The White Album. Working Class Hero is not a Beatles song, it’s from John Lennon / Plastic Ono Band. Here are the links for Podcast Episode 8:

All songs performed with the 12 string vintage Guild acoustic guitar except one instrumental on the Ibanez 6 string in open D tuning. The Royal Forester – Traditional/ Steeleye Span The Royal Forester is a Scottish ballad from my favourite Steeleye Span album, Below The Salt where they subtitle the track “the aboriculturist meets superwoman”. Below the Salt While My Guitar Gently Weeps – George Harrison Open D Intrumental – Andy Roberts Rocky Racoon – Lennon/McCartney Standing By – Andy Roberts Working Class Hero – John Lennon

Havering Folk Club
http://andyroberts.me/andy-roberts-music/havering-folk-club
Havering Folk Club continues to meet weekly during the summer months at the Golden Lion pub in Romford even if there are less people able to attend due to being away on holidays or at festivals. With fewer performers turning up on a Wednesday, in that case, it means a bit more time for each and so I ended up singing four songs last week. The first was to align with the previous night’s podcast episode 6 which was loosely themed around the fingerpicking blues style and I’ve been having the tune of Hesitation Blues going through my head ever since so that’s what I played. Secondly, I’d been corresponding about The Wreckers Prayer so that got another airing. Linda wasn’t there to shoot any video so I’ll include some alternatives takes from the Andy Roberts Music youtube account in due course. After the break or rather just before the break, I got called up again and decided on the spur of the moment to do two Beatles songs. I Feel Fine and Norwegian Wood
