OK, so I guess I'm making a public post, no matter what :) For ABQ music, check the Outpost (listings are in the weekly Alibi). I saw Pauline Oliveros there last year. There is also a small music group that is related to the Outpost that seems to do really off-the-wall stuff, but I can't remember who they were. Check for indian (east, not native) music shows in ABQ and SantaFe. There seems to be *something* at least every couple months. SantaFe also has an electro-acoustic music festival, which may have already happened this year, but I'm not sure. Drive up to there and grab the Santa Fe Reporter and check regularly for listing. If I remember correctly, I missed several interesting shows this past summer while slumming it in SF. For a *really good time* :), check out http://mediainstitute.csf.edu/ for one of their workshops next summer. A very interesting time. (This is highly recommended for all loopers). For instance, David Dunn has created some truly twisted patches for Reaktor, Mr. Subotnick shows some of his work (got to visit his home studio also ;), and Steina showed some truly twised video stuff made using a program called Image/ine (which is esentially an amazing video looper).
