Sorry, this is a bit of endulgement on my part, but the fact is here in Winnipeg, no one as big as Autechre or Spacetime Continuum has ever played a gig here so when I recieved this fax I nearly lost it. The fellow that sent me the fax asked me to forward part of it electronically to some local groups, which I did but I would also like to post a bit of it here as well, thanks: It seems to be finalized! Winnipeg will play host to a wonderful evening coustesy of Brown & Booth of Autechre (Warp), Jonah Sharp of Spacetime Continuum (Astralwerks, Reflective), and Mark Broom of Self-referencial, Repeat (with the Plaid guys), and various other incarnations on the decks. The date? A Friday in March (don't ask why I don't remember the exact date; it's been a long day...). This is now the time where the individuals in this city who care about the quality of sounds entering their ears, finnally get some dessert after the sour taste left by the main course of being stuck in the middle of the prairies where no one interestion (within the musical parameters of there biased ears) seems to drop by (and no wonder considering how much of a human spawning ground we seem to be...; you get birthed, you leave for a bigger city around 20, and then return for your pension around 50). (lots deleted, if you are from Winnipeg or are just interested in what else was in the fax, give me an e-mail and I'll send you the rest)
