move very slow - Motion Sculpture. We'll be playing in a store front venue in
the shadows of Corp. America and folks can come in, sit down and take it all in.

I'll try. I was there this afternoon and shot a bunch of photos
but wasn't too happy with the results. I did notice
they have a lot of people documenting this
fest, hopefully I can get shots from the 6/22 show.

22=2x11. ;)

Wow. Serious buns, Dave! But seriously, that is a lot of
concentration (and/or meditation).

Don't forget to give credit to whatever catheter you use...

Cheers,

Hehe...

We started about 1:30 and ended up about 6:30. I took 2 breaks
by looping a chord, it gave me a chance to stretch, grab a drink
and uh...other things. The last section I played on was 3 hrs. long.
I didn't think I'd be playing more than looping, but we had a bit of
an audience so I felt I needed to be up on stage.

And I'd do again...and will.

Thanks guys. I think the photos were taken by a School of Visual Arts student.
Claire had a ton of people snapping shots and running video all
week long. Just about constantly!

Althought it doesn't look like it, we were performing under
very bright lights, after a storm...nice and humid up
on stage. I did it one afternoon for five hours, they performed
like that for the entire week.

I'm looking forward to performing with them again this Fall.

Film is cheap, experiences are fleeting. Glad you got documented.

Cheers,
Jon

Me too. Many is the time where I never got the photos someone else shot.
