...just waking up and having my coffee here with
some first BEMF reflections. Last night's show was outstanding. Lumper/Splitter
(Joe & Lucio), Ted Killian & Jeff Kaiser, and Rick put on some amazing
performances that I thought were very innovative. I think they blew some Boise
minds! And the great thing is that we recorded it
all. Having two films running at the same time on the sides of each
stage worked out beautifully. It was bizarre how totally unrelated films
and live music synced up on accasion.
Was anyone able to listen in on the stream? If not,
we're streaming all day today too, starting at 1pm MST US time, 12pm San
Franciso time, 3pm Boston time, 6pm Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), or 7pm
(London)...and the music goes for 10 hours.
I also played with Jeff Kaiser the night before at
the same gallery, for an audience of about 350 people....I will share
that recording this weekend, plus a bunch of pictures, here:
