I hit up 'Swimming to Cambodia,' Nief-Norf, Aleuchatistas, Carla Bley, Matana Roberts, Michael Hurley, Shipp/Kapp and 'Stop Making Sense'

The Norf Oliveros piece is going to be hard to top. Also, Stop Making Sense on that sound system was amazing

though getting up at 7 am to load in and prep for a noon show was . .. gnarly

WE HAD SO MUCH FUN PLAYING THIS FEST OMG

and we have seen a lot of rad shit too

Matana was rad

Alvin Curran killed it, such a great musician and just really wild and loose and crazy

Michael Hurley was super charming

Carla Bley trio was exquisite

bummed I missed Rzewski but we had to pack our gear

gonna be on a panel w Matana and the Deathprod dude tomorrow at 10 am if anyone is feeling masochistic
