Hi Lance, nice to hear your cyber voice!  Bobdog, the very creative 
musician
in the CT-One Collective (this is for other L.D.-ers not you, Lance) played
the Henry Miller Library with his creative world fusion/electronica 
project,
PseuddoBuddha.   I was such a fan of his music that I drove the hour and a
half down there to see them (and, lucky me, I got to set in with them for a
set).  Anyway, I just fell in love with the place and later called the
curator, Magnus Toren (who is a great guy and wonderful supporter of
'fringe' arts and music) to propose the First
Big Sur Looping Festival.  He went for it and we had a good time.
It is difficult to get a lot of people to the venue as it is pretty far 
from
the nearest population center, but it is the most beautiful place I've ever
played
in my life and I love that we are going to bring the Bass Festival there
on July 7th).

I would be more than happy to personally give Magnus your promo packet
(CD, reviews, bios or whatever you have assembled and, knowing your
beautiful minimalist graphics sensibility, it looks really good) and would
be into adding my name to the performance if it would help the booking.

Let me know,  yours,  Rick
