I recently received this extraordinary but somehow wonderful video of MT readers Badloader playing a gig at Colchester Arts Centre. If you like men in catsuits and codpieces playing synth pop, you'll probably enjoy it tremendously. My own YouTube performance has been limited, but I'm sure you must have done better. Post your own YouTube live gig links in the comments, and I'll collect the best for a superpost in a few days, when we've got over all the NAMM excitement.

Sorry no synths. I'm on Bass. Extra points for anyone who can recognize what kind of green electric guitar is being played. Shot at a venue called the Gig in Los Angeles.
The Emotron...not me but i've played a gig with him before. I was at the show in the video too, you would totally recognize me if you knew what i looked like.
well, most are of me playing in the basement, but all are live, no overdubs, no multitrack and no sound engineer/mixer except for jammin java and caribou coffee gigs.
The band I played with in PA (since relocated to Jacksonville, FL) - The Mike Smith Band, "Gonna Get It".
My wife walked around randomly with a camera while we went through the song twice. Recorded the audio on a Fostex MR8 with an AT stereo condensor mic. Picked the live audio take I liked best, did my best to mix the video from the two takes on top of it. Not at all a bad representation of who we were and what we were doing...
