I randomly ran across this video last night when trying to put together the setlist page. This is Greyson's performance of "Paparazzi" from his appearance on Le Grand Journal which appears to be kind of a big deal in Paris. The website where they upload episodes of the show after they air doesn't allow you to rip the videos, so his interview and performance haven't been out there for people to see (well half of the performance was out there, but not the whole thing). Anyway, this might be my favorite of his performance of "Paparazzi" since the original video. Edit: Ok, so the YouTube video got blocked right away, but I ripped the audio if anybody is interested in listening to it --> "Paparazzi" (solo piano) - Paris, FR (December 10, 2010)Here is part of the performance: Do you have the link to the full thing? I might be able to get it. I don't think this is my favorite vocal performance of the song, but it is definetly my favorite video recording of him performing it He never ceases to amaze me, every time I see a video I havn't seen before it just gets better every time

Hmm, short of being completely illegal, yes I'm keeping it pretty simple However, that does bring up an interesting topic, if you where to have a wideband wireless reciever and know the wireless frequency of greyson's transmitter you might have something there > Oh yeah, I was dead serious about how they do it. Not that I understand it, but the best bootleg recordings that aren't from radio broadcasts (which I guess aren't really bootlegs) are the ones where they take a "normal" audience recording and mix it with an IEM recording. The audience recording gives the atmosphere of the crowd (applause, participation, etc.) while the IEM allows them to bring out the sound of the band better than just the audience recording. I have no idea how the people that do it have the time or money to do it, but months after a show they will released them and they sound almost as good as an official release. Springsteen is one of the most heavily bootlegged artists of all time b/c no two shows are the same b/c he is always playing random stuff and changing up the setlist. Also, b/c he sucks in the studio and no really big fan listens to his studio recordings... it is all about the live show. Therefore, I can at least kind of keep up when talking about bootlegs and what you are looking for in them. However, I was kidding about us trying to go about getting the recordings in this manner. I think we can just hope that as he gets bigger more copies of his shows surface. For now the YouTube videos will do. I am going on Thursday and I still haven't decided if I am going to try and tape or not. I kind of don't want to, but then I feel kind of selfish not at least attempting to get some good footage, but some pretty decent stuff has turned up recently like those posted at the top of the thread. Hehe yeah I would not wan't do do that to Greyson. But it really is something simple to do. It just takes a lot of planning to execute. If you have someone inside recording that can get close enough to the monitor-console (Most tours have two mixers, a monitor console and a main console) to see the frequincys displayed on the recievers, the person outside just needs to enter in the number and they will get a feed of it. Granted if you wanted to do it good, you would need multipul tracks being recorded/mixed into one, because Greyson may only have his vocals going to his IEM. OR on the other end of the spectrum, if you where a hater, you could do the reverse and use a transmittor tuned to the same frequincy as one of their wireless mic recievers and well, you get the point. And honostly, I wouldn't bother recording, I sure wish I didn't. You will enjoy the show a lot more. All I got was some crappy recordings too.

Ooh that's really cool mapender! So there's a possibility that a song like that will be on the album but if that was for a resume their must also be many more. Well at least we got to hear that while we could I nominate you as official detective

Interesting, I haven't eaten a lunchable in years so I'm not too up to date on the issue. Personally I think its not right to target company who provide this foods, such as mcdonalds for instance. If its bad, don't buy it. Blame yourself, not them.
However I would like this thread to not get too in depth from here as it will eventually end up in a political debate which would violate the GCF ToS.

It sounds pretty good for me, nothing compared to a studio recording though. You can clearly head the poor auto tuning and poor quality synthesizing.

Not to start anything, but arnt lunchables supposed to be a balanced meal? Similar to school lunch programs? Granted no one can control if someone chooses to eat more then the lunchable etc.

Yeah, it pretty much is But he I can only assume that sense those are the songs he has been performing, that they will be on his first album. Of course after Hold on Til The Night it will be a bit harder. But right now this is all we have to work with

Wow that is a strange mix of Broken Hearts - not something IMHO that they would ever release in that raw form? It sounds like a very rough treatment and it doesn't sound conventional at all...more like experimental, but I could be wrong. If it is based on early rendition the final cut will/should be quite different? Bottom line I just don't see it on the final CD in that form at all lol I think it was made just to show what they could do perhaps Yeah it sounds a lot more electronic then the others, with which reading more about Purple Crush, that is their style. This is possibly a recording submitted to Interscope to see who the studio band would be, As in the tweet that mapender posted too, this recording may be a few months old.

I was going to post this in a reply on another thread but I got more into detail with it so I figured I would finish it here. I wonder how many songs and which ones are going to be on the album? WOTL might not be sense it was already released twice, or three including the remix. I only bring it up because I just was looking at my iTunes filtered to only Greyson and there's 11 studio or good recordings of songs. With the exception of Heart Like Stone. I don't have Past on there either. And one of those is WOTL. So there might only be a few more songs that we don't know of, depending on how many the album will have. What do you guys think about Fire, Paparazzi, and WOTL? Do you think they will be on Hold on Til The Night? I'm thinking the track list will go something like, -Unfriend You -Light Up The Dark -Within The Lights -Broken heart -Summer train -Empire State of Mind -Heart Like Stone -Past -Purple Sky And one more that we don't know yet. Im thinking that because I don't think it will have 12-15 songs, maybe 10. But I sure hope I am wrong Also im not even sure about Past and Within the Lights as hes never even performed them other then one time a while back. Just kind of an open discussion about your thoughts on the album

You are much better then finding information then I am That is interesting, so Purple Crush (There is a soft drink that is called "Crush" but I don't think theres anything Purple Crush) is the studio band behind Greyson huh? So this must of been maybe a practice recording for the band? Or maybe even the official, I would think they would get into some trouble if Interscope/Geffen/1111 found out

Actually, after listining to it a few times, the vocals sound different then any other recordings i've heard. It just sounds a bit different to me. Although the instrumentals seem to be similar to the other studio recordings.

Hey all, I just remembered this post today while listining to Fire. Some people where saying that they didn't like the studio recording. Well, before the official one came out I was listining to this one, it's about as close as it comes to a studio version and it has the emotion that we know Greyson for. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHKbpdwDSm8
