we do.
not neccessarily improvised completely on the spot, but we just create a
mess of patterns/beats/samples/keyboard parts in advance and then
arrange/perform/mix/manipulate it live ... of course this means we always
manage to fuck it up somehow too :) but i would say at least 25% of our
shows are improvised in the sense that we don't use fixed arrangements and
we usually try to have some completely improvised bits for between songs,
while samples load, equipment breakdowns etc.
all chicagoans on the list should come out to Danny's (Damen and
Dickens) on October 9 ... we are doing a live PA which should get started
around Midnight as part of the regular Monday nite PLAY festivities.
