Thanks for the info guys, esp. Kennrr. Your name came to mind while I posted my req, but wasn't sure if you were still in the area. I'm back and forth from Tucson to Phoenix at the moment trying to decide if I want to work here. Meeting up sometime sounds good, I plan to be back here next Friday for the Skinny Puppy screening so I'll msg you if you'd like to come along. Going to meet up with a few people I've met up here so far, so it'd be best to meet there because I'm not so sure about these characters myself.

Cound not agree more on the art culture here, un-fucking-believable how massive it is. I'm at the Tempe Library at this moment checking out the "Mother" exhibit by local painters, top notch and refreshing it is. Last month, what was supposed be a one night stand took me up to Jerome, Sedona, and someplace the name escapes me but it was a bit like going from Haight-Ashbry, to Sante Fe, and then a gypsy bohemian graceland. BUT THE FUCKING HEAT HERE!!! Everyone keeps telling me, "You'll get used to it" or "it's just 3 months out of the year", but I realy don't see it happening unless I get an offer of beaucoup dough in exchange for whoring out my intellect.

I'll send you a message next week from Tucson with the plans on SP. Oh yeah, and what do you know about Club Congress here in Tucson. I've read of a few DJ's doing their do the past few weeks, but it came accross as a college meat market, hang out, kinda thing from photos. Where as the entire area is being revamped to an art district in it's own rite.
