taking notes, checking out stuff, until they started
getting ready for the party..

i left for awhile, and came back that later that evening,
and got a chance to talk to a lot of the tomato crew!
and of course rick and karl.. it was an amazing event..

i'm sorry i was in my (usual) anti-social mood though,
i'm not much of talker at these events, unless someone
talks to me..

i was the indian guy, wearing all black (jacket/jeans/etc)..

be seeing you
+1

hmmm... my girl and i showed up around 3ish (literally checked in our hotel and booked it to the gallery) and caught karl and john in the middle of a spin magazine interview i believe. man it was such a treat to catch the whole moment of the art jam in a candid, casual setting. but what the crap, where were you hiding? there were several other UW junkies hanging around the space too. maybe we just missed you by a fraction.

did karl happen to read one of your shoutouts about that day during one of the broadcasts? something about being "a naughty little monkey".

I was there by myself, just moved to the city, really, but I'm not exaggerating when I say it was one of the best nights of my life. I feel great to have been part of something so important to the band, and I wouldn't have known if you hadn't done that interview.

I used to have a recording of that show, but I lost it many hard drives ago. Wonder if it is better to let it live in my memory?

dude! i happened to snag that off RTSR almost 5 years ago (should still be in the archive if you search). the recording is fair, but whats most note worthy is the energry of the crowd, the response is massively undisputed and raw. karl even notes the obeservation near the end of the gig, and is pretty grateful for the support. that show defintely had something special, you're lucky to have been there

BTW... if anyone is in the southern california or wil be during september 20th, brian eno will be ranting about stuff in long beach http://www.carpenterarts.org/0910eno.html
