Nice to see that Darren picked up the idea and uploaded
QL 2002 DVD for public viewing!

I did upload two more QL videos:
- QL-Midi session by Al Boehm at QL 2000
- Kodak-Camera session by Simon N Goodwin at QL 2000

Have fun...Urs

The QL 2002 DVD is now available to view for free online at 
YouTube.

Both in Low Res (for dial-up users, although some problems may 
persist - 
Video and 56K Dial-up generally don't work well) and the full DVD 
high 
res quality versions. Its been split into manageable chunks to 
aid 
viewing, all less than 7 or 8 minutes each.

Just search for QL2002DVD and you'll find all of them - we 
welcome 
feedback.

Thanks to Steve Reyal who spent a lot of time transcoding it over 
the 
weekend - enjoy.

Darren.

Hi Roy,

I sent you a private mail, surfice to say I just spent 3 hours of my 
working day enjoying that site.

For those of you that don't know (and lets face it, you have to be 
fairly stupid not to) Roys life has been spent in Music - both on and 
off stage, Hes a damn good vocalist in my opinion. Hes also roadied and 
Sound engineered for the best of them (I could name drop here but we're 
far enough off topic already!)

One of the best evenings (in fact, weekends) I ever spent was after a QL 
meet here in Ireland when Everyone who attended had gone home, and Roy 
and Myself had a whole day to fill. We were picking up Roys son the 
following morning, who was staying with friends of Roys near Dublin. We 
ended up sitting drinking a lot of Beer and Red Wine on the Seafront 
near Bray, near where I used to live, with Roy telling story after story 
of his roadie days - hilarious all of them. Really enjoyable day.

I always Said he should write a book.

Darren.

 Maybe its time to have another Irish QL Show Pi**-Up
 again??  Any takers??  In the lovely West of Ireland this time, of

Not that I know of - Roy?

However he has worked with Manfred Mann, Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel, 
Gary Glitter, and the man himself - Ozzy Osbourne, among many many others.

I still have a signed UDO Album and T-Shirt Roy gave me from his tour 
that Roy did sound on ( I was a huge Accept fan in my teens - Udo 
Dirkschnider was the lead singer)

I could go on and on and on

 I'm impressed !
  
 Did he / they ever do a session for John Peel ( top gear ) ?

We were never that famous but thanks for all the compliments Darren - 
not sure I can quite live up to them but... I can tell you all about it 
when we meet at the Irish QL Pish Up - I have other reasons form wanting 
that as you know. (Maybe I should put that in another email - it is just 
the Irish hospitality - honest.)

Anyhow I am rambling. Organise a show go on. Before Christmas would be 
great. Private mail will follow.

He does have a drummer, and the most amazing guitarist in Steve Bensusan
(he even has a cool name!!) they are very close to starting gigging
again, and have been rehearsing a lot.

Would love to see them live.

I have a Roy Weard and Last Post album, and its brilliant. I listen to
it all the time. Thats not blowing smoke - I'm a huge Music buff with
over 1,500 CD's, Vinyl and Cassettes at home. Actually, it was through
music that Roy got into QL's (I think) - he used to use one to do stage
design layouts on as a roadie. In fact, I think a lot of his stage
designs are now in the QUANTA Library.

And in his early days, he had a bigger beard than Tony!!

 Having read that link properly, there were quite a number of bands!
 ... and it seems the current project now does have a drummer.

Re: [Ql-Users] QL on YouTube

2007-08-17 Thread Darren Branagh - Kingfisher Club

Hi All,

I certainly don't have any problem uploading parts of the QL DVD to 
YouTube, but it was Steve who did all the hard work - He bought a MiniDV 
Camera (back when they weren't cheap - around £1000 at the time I think) 
Did all the editing at his place of work (London  Post Production, using 
professional editing kit that would have cost a small fortune had we 
been paying for it) and a LOT of his spare time DVD authoring, and using 
a rostrum Camera to do the tilting QL shots for the Menus etc. All I had 
to do was make a fool of myself presenting it (and a bigger fool of 
myself in the outakes blooper reel!)

Needless to say we haven't sold any copies in a Looonn time...

I'll talk to Steve about it; Main problem would be cutting it to 
managable chunks for viewing on YouTube (easy enough) and we'd also have 
to scale down the image quality (it was in full  DVD quality; a bit much 
for YouTube unless you want to spend all day downloading it)

Actually, as a taster, I'll upload the promo trailer we did for it over 
the weekend if I can. If is less than a meg when scaled down, and is 
hilarious - Steve made it to resemble a 1940's pathe news cinema reel, 
including filming in Black and white and adding lines and blurring to 
the footage to make it look old - and as for the voice over - excellent. 
Its about a minute or two long and would be well suited for YouTube.

Cheers,

Darren.

P.S. I'll still here - I really miss the QL Shows and meeting up with 
the guys at them, but work and family matters make it very hard to do 
anything anymore. Maybe its time to have another Irish QL Show Pi**-Up 
again??  Any takers??  In the lovely West of Ireland this time, of 
Course..
