On a night when a lot of things were out of the ordinary, Doom Lover pulled off something extraordinary. While Jeffrey Vachon sang his heart out, two of his bandmates performed a shadow puppet show that demonstrated the kind of heart this band has. I’ve never seen anything like it in a rock club. I won’t soon forget it.
Hi. We love the Boston music scene here at Daykamp Music. We love it so much we made it a present. It’s called Daykamp Music TV.
OK, it’s not really TV. You’d probably figure that out on your own. We just saw all of these really cool music videos being made and we wanted some way to watch them one right after the other. You know, like the good ol’ days of music television. Is that so wrong? So we built this. Then we found that we kept watching it, like, all the time. So we figured maybe someone else would want to watch videos this way, too.
There’s not a whole lot to it. Go ahead, click the play button. Watch some videos. Like a video? Give it a thumbs up. Better yet, share it with your friends. Not digging a song? Skip it. Dont worry, there’s no penalty for skipping a song. Keep an open mind, though. Maybe we’ll help you find your new favorite band.
We hope to make Daykamp Music TV something you will love. We’re still in beta, so you may find a feature here or there that doesn’t work quite right. Feel free to drop us a line if you have any issues. Or maybe there’s a video you think we should know about. We’d love to hear about that, too.
Boston bands inspired this. We built it. Daykamp Creative made it look good. It was a team effort.
Tonight’s show was advertised as having a vaudeville bent, so seeing an oboe and viola up on stage with Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling doesn’t seem that strange. Then again, their performance was preceded by ukulele confessions, gut-wrenching music-as-therapy, a “ventriloquist”, burlesque and Tad McKitterick. My sense of normal might be a bit off right now.
