Re: Loopers-Delight-d Digest V08 #268
That's it! From now on, I'm burning sage at my festival and hiring a few
dozen half naked neo-hippie teenagers reeking with petruli oil, 2 week old
sweat, and reefer smoke, to haphazardly prance around the back of the
venue.
:) Oh yeah, and they all have to drive their parents' Beamers to the
:show.
I can see my ticket sales quadrupling already...KaChing!

"unless a festival can secure enough corporate sponsors, you are > forced
to
run it this way" This is true for fringe art festivals that appeal to
other
weirdo artists,but there's a really thriving festival scene. The jamband
festival scene is raging. In that world if you play a grooving head with
enough melody to be catchy you can take it literally anywhere you want,and
the audience will listen. In fact if you don't take chances and expolre
you
won';t be popular in that world. But you have to give 'em a clear entrance
and exit.
"A human being is a part of a whole, called by us _universe_, a part
limited
in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as
something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his
consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to
our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our
task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of
compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its
beauty." Einstein
