Having ~just~ 'listened' to 'The Unrelenting Songs of the 1979 Post-Disco Crash' for the first time ever, I'm sure that I wouldn't have even bothered to attend that 'performance'. That stuff wasn't "experimental": it's been done over and over again: and often done far better and with an interesting point of view, much less any point, imo. seek np: Wayne Butane - 'Swipes' http://www.splendidezine.com/review.html?reviewid=10815357011137589 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
