Our Mercury - Black Dog Aug 8 2007

This is footage from Our Mercury's show on Aug 8 2007 at the Black Dog Freehouse in Edmonton, AB.

The song is the most recent one written by the band. We don't even have a title for it yet, so I'll just call it "House Painter". Pay attention to Jah Stevie's lyrics. I think they are some of his best.

We actually played the song all the way through once. There were some electrical difficulties on stage left so Dirty Eric did a rewind and started the dubwise version. Once power had been resolved the whole pub burst into chorus (despite being the first time an audience had heard the tune) and Our Mercury proceeded to play the new song in it's entirety again.

This clip is from the second take.

Enjoy, see you at the reunion.
