Finalely

Well the gig I just spent the last month practicing for has finally taken place and I could scarcely be happier with how it turned out. I was utterly elated at the amount of people who weathered the storm to attend and I want to express my heartfelt gratitude.
All the practicing definitely paid off because I felt a level of comfort on stage that was very novel. I used to be so concerned about remembering all my lyrics that there was no energy left for style and delivery, but this time I knew them well enough to literally get busy.
Meanwhile, Cameron completely transformed the space and it wouldn't have been half the experience it was without him.
Lastly, Death by Art School made me smile diabolically as I saw the outer limits of what could be achieved with tempera, paper mache and precious medals.
I'll post some pictures soon.

Death by Art School school

It's been interesting working with Evan and James from Death by Art School-they combine outlandishly ambitious ideas with deceptively casual work. I don't think that it is corny or even latently homosexual to say that they play hard. I was looking at some of their old live shots on Facebook and thought they merited my six readers' attention:



I'm also really thrilled that my friend Cameron Lee has agreed to contribute his installation and materials expertise-he's one of the most informed, articulate and talented artists I know:


So yeah-I think this thing is worth coming to-all signs are pointing to a memorable evening-I hope you can make it friends,
