Thanks for the shout out. You’re welcome 😉 Have a great few gigs VG. You’ll smash it. I can’t wait to hear the stories. MW 🎵

[@Psymon1968]

Mesh are such a good band.

[@VaughnGeorge]

Thank you brother!! VG :-)

[@CardboardNose319]

Wow! I follow Mesh for now over 18 Years. In Germany they are very popular in the "Scene". I'm very pleased to hear, that they now connected to you. Congratulations to that.

[@VaughnGeorge]

Thank you Andreas!! VG :-)

[@Ruediger_Hasenpusch]

So cool to see you playing these familiar sounds! Have fun in Germany! Viel Spaß! 😄

[@DT101]

You only heard about them in 2019 😮 That's a lot of back catalogue to catch up on. Mesh are definitely in my top 10 artists. Congrats on the appointment of keyboard player, we'll see you on many KZbin fan uploads soon. 👍

[@VaughnGeorge]

Thank you my friend!! VG :-)

[@leenewcome85]

Good luck Vaughan hope all goes well & you have a good Tour.......

[@VaughnGeorge]

Thank you Lee! VG :-)

[@thelightdreams]

Oh, Mesh are absolutely BRILLIANT. It's so good to know they're still going. You will be PERFECT for Mesh... in fact I'm already anticipating you'll be on the next album with them!

[@mattbelinski7760]

I was thinking the same thing...They're going to ask him to become a full time member!!

[@StockholmNightlife]

Coool VG!!!! 🤩 Congrats to Mesh!! 🎹🎶💯

[@abeach5420]

Kewwwl vid share Vaughn....dig it LOTS. So excited for you....deserving of all such.

[@alexgalaktionov9952]

The Point at Which It Falls Apart is my favourite one. I suppose it was their Violator, but they never reached this point again since then.

[@SynthesisMusic]

Exact. You stole the words out of my mouth. I think the first 3 albums are their best, then they became maybe too sophisticated and lost a bit the direction started with Fragile, but still they remain one of the best electro-wave realities, together with De/Vision. I think their peak is just after the album you mentioned, or the song The Purest People, one of the purest gems of electronic music. Congrats Vaughy for being part of this band, I think it's an incredible satisfaction for you and you must be rightly super proud. I don't know Vaughn if you will ever be determined in the composition of future Mesh records, but I hope so, because you could really give a lot and add your quality. Your album Dark Society is one of the albums I've been listening to the most lately and it's really good

[@chrislysiak9561]

Never heard of Mesh, but congratulations, Vaughn! Post some videos from the shows!

[@VaughnGeorge]

I certainly will Chris!! VG :-)

[@AlanMacKenzieBTN]

Great to hear you're performing with my joint favourite band. I saw them live in 2004. Don't get too carried away with your fame and fortune in Germany. Just remember who you were, only yesterday.

[@pianodave3]

You're a pro, Vaughn, you got this!

[@VaughnGeorge]

Bless you David!! VG :-)

[@matz666]

Have fun with the guys. This band is awesome. Here in Germany we have a big fan base. 🤘

[@TimothySmiths]

Cool I've seen Mesh live about 10-12 years ago here in the US with Iris and De/Vision.

[@andersb80]

Really cool! Mesh are a great band!

[@jenniferperrin9112]

Hope last weekend went well, haven't caught up to date with your posts, really enjoyed seeing this one though, thanks Vaughn xx

[@ToreHansen]

Congrats, this is so cool, I have followed Mesh since they was featured in Future Music first time and songs on their CD.

[@andrewgiddey1619]

Proud!!!! You go my friend!

[@Aleksey_Polishchuk_Das_Tu]

Congrats! and good luck !😎

[@harald-bosh]

[@edmeulmeester3810]

Enjoyed seeing you play in Rotterdam!

[@davidchandler4587]

Interesting little vid. You a talented man.

[@VaughnGeorge]

Thank you David!! VG :-)

[@andyry1269]

Very nice, Sir. I will go and see you when you come to Denmark. -Andy Ry Denmark

[@69PonPon]

Hi Vaughn, I‘ve been at the show last night in Halle. It was awesome…fantastic show, enthused audience and you played your parts like you never have done anything else 😀. Glad to see you there…

[@markreevestravels758]

Love your channel, love Mesh big time! I watched your interview with Mesh years ago and thought you guys got along really well, I was particularly interested as they use Cubase. What a great combination you guy's make - I can't wait for some new material (maybe they could use some help) 😜😜🎹🎹🎵🎵♥♥

[@VaughnGeorge]

Thank you Mark!! VG :-)

[@neckwatch]

Break a leg, you're going to do fine. Wish I could be at these shows. Sending lucky vibes your way from San Francisco!

[@antonyhudson5029]

Good luck 👍

[@alastairfraser8177]

Good luck with the tour

[@davieandpambeveridge3040]

Good luck, I'm sure you'll have a blast.

[@spjotvold1]

Good luck! This must be some experience. 🙂I can almost feel the nerves myself. You have the skills and you seem well prepared already. Guess I have to check out Mesh a bit more.

[@VaughnGeorge]

Thank you Øyvind !! VG

[@EtsiJuuret]

Hello, Vaughan! I'm glad and happy for you, it's like pulling out a lucky ticket and participating in the tour of an already legendary band, almost like a mini-DM! Will their an-ol-good song Not Prepared (Don't Get There) be on the setlist? At the beginning of the noughties, it appeared on some pirated DM compilations as their unrealized track)) and some believed, because the second voice was a bit like Martin's. I don't want to start any blasphemous conjectures, but it reminds me of a good old story from 1981... "an electronic band is looking for a keyboard player over the age of 21..." 😊😊😊

[@tonyblue1]

Enjoy every night V! ❤

[@tominoakachudak]

Be sure that we are waiting for a multicam with a self-analyse later! 😊 GL HF

[@UnderDarkSkies]

amazing!! Did you also play 'My hands are tied'?

[@VaughnGeorge]

No, did not play that one this time , VG :-)

[@UnderDarkSkies]

oh it's my favourite Mesh song :) I hope you'll play it on the next tour gigs, and we could get the insights how to play it 😃

[@grimlund]

Im getting nervous my self just watching this. I wouldnt manage to go up on stage just like that. I got stage fright. Good luck Vaugn. Maybe the guys gonna ask you to play more gigs in the future.

[@wattage2007]

Love Mainstage.

[@grantdubery8001]

Good luck

[@VaughnGeorge]

Thank you Sir!! VG🙂

[@deastman2]

I haven’t used MainStage, so I’m not sure what it’s capable of. I use Ableton when we play live- I have all of my virtual samplers and synths set up in one big Instrument Rack with automation so that whatever sound I need at any given time is always right under my fingers. That way I don’t have to worry about which sounds are mapped to which section of the keyboard, and I can just focus on playing. Of course, it’s easy enough to automate it switching to a multisampler with multiple sounds if I need it, or a drum rack with a bunch of percussion or one-shot samples. It’s very flexible and takes a lot of pressure off of me during gigs so I can focus entirely on the performance.

[@tonyduncan4875]

Now we’re talking my language!!

[@marcorave1101]

right now

[@carlosmodegahan4455]

This looks complicated! Hope you make detail videos of the sounds you play on each song of the set list, also, how do you know which parts to play and how they are played, midi files? Or learn by ear? And the sounds that are not there, do you have to figure out what sound instrument to use??

[@thelightdreams]

...let's not forget Mesh also supported Gary Numan at some point. It all points back to Gary!

[@ash23neuro]

I want somebody to share Share a video of V Playing keyboards live On tour in Germany

[@VaughnGeorge]

Bless you brother!! VG :-)

[@EdLau-ch7br]

How is the the CME UF70? Francis have a black one but on every octave, we have one broken key. Still couldn't find a shop to repair it. Billy Currie of Ultravox did use it. Do post your live performance with the band. Peace bro.

[@stevewebb7126]

I was listening to Mesh from around 2016 . Automation Baby is for me their best .They obviously are influenced by Depeche Mode .

[@69PonPon]

…a young London guy started his world career in 82 the same way, could you imagine to be part of the band? 😉
