StoneMtn Posted October 27, 2004 Report Share Posted October 27, 2004 Hey C-Towns: The peak time to check out the eclipse on the west coast is supposed to be 7:23 pm. I believe that's 6:23 for those of you in Ralph's Kingdom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonberry Posted October 28, 2004 Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 Some weird guy kept appearing and giving me camera advice. It started a lot earlier than I'd heard. I had friends come over around 9:50, and they announced the moon was already half shrouded, so we raced out to tape the thing. Taping an eclipse is not all its cracked up to be. First it was hard to focus on the thing, and furthermore, the moon moves, of course... so every five minutes the camera had to be repositioned. Still, I got a good two hours of footage. ... so the question is: what would be good getting high/watching two hours of moon eclipsing music?

paisley Posted October 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 sorry about the 10:25 advice, ended up that was the time when the moon was entirely shrouded... oh well, sorry bout that again... there'll be another one in 2007listening suggestion for eclipse video watching I'd say Garcia/Wales Hooteroll and, of course, Dark Side of the Moon :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonberry Posted October 28, 2004 Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 S'ok Paise. You weren't the only one who had that number. Actually, I was gonna say the Dub version of Dark side of the Moon. But still... A good choice. Is It Morning might not be bad either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paisley Posted October 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 right on, if you find the right sounds let us know... good work on shooting the video Hooterall works great for fireworks actually, not sure about the shifting light of an eclipse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
