I have a theremin...of course, haven't really gotten the hang of how to play
it correctly, but it makes some really kewl sounds.
Got to play with an original at the UofM antique electronic instrument show
they were having.

OK, tentative:

2nd Experimental Music Gathering
Sunday, January 17, afternoon
Scott's house (in Ann Arbor)

(feel free to suggest alternate days/dates)

I'm going to construct some fun things for this one, with contact mics or
something.

Sounds fun. Sunday afternoons in general work, I'm not sure if that one does,
so I guess count me as a tentative 'yes' for the 17th.

Where'd you get yr theremin, isis?

I ordered through Big Briar, Bob Moog's company.  They come either fully
assembled or in kits.  Mine was already assembled for 300.

I should note that this gathering is open to all participants in the Music
conference...

I've seen the documentary on Theremin, and it's *fascinating*.  Highly
recommended.
 
Fez will be opening up for Poignant Plecostemus at the Blind Pig this Friday,
January 15.  I have now listened to their album, _Elixir_ (1997), which is
deliciously good.  I'll be at the show.  Anyone else interested in joining
me?  Doors open at 9:30P.
 
I'm hoping to make the Sunday gathering, following, at Scott's.

Okay, I'm not sure if I can come or not...I need to be on Central Campus at
3:00; if I can get a ride there from someone then I'll be able to come,
otherwise I'll need to miss this. Argh!

I'll give you a ride if needed.

Cool. Thanks a lot, Scott. I should be there, then.

Surprise!  Ann Arbor has its very own experimental music genius:  Frank Pahl.
Catch him in The Scavenger Quartet at the Blind Pig Thursday, May 6 at 10pm.
They're opening up for The Original Brothers and Sisters of Love.  Check him
out!

Ah, right, now I remember.  He was in "Only a Mother", right?

Here's a very tenuous announcement:
On NPR the other day I turned the radio on just in time to hear the end of
a promo for a concert [somewhere] [some date].  Not sure exactly who was being
announced, but the background music (apparently the artist) was by ZGA, which
is a Russian experimental music group featured in one of those compilations
mentioned earlier in this item.

Anybody know anything?
orinoco
response 196 of 205: Mark Unseen   May 17 00:59 UTC 1999

I bought a CD by ZGA a while back.  Most of it sounds to me like beating trash
cans with sticks.  Then again, most modern music has been described that way
at one time or another...

re>#181 Isis, if you don't mind me asking, how much (in dollars, yes, and
maybe UKP if you know the exchange rate) did you pay for it, you lucky, lucky
person????

I'm afraid you probably won't get an answer to that query, Patchie.
resp:181 was from 1998, and Anne/isis who wrote it is long gone.

  Isn't that Kevin Shields' current (to use the term loosely) project?
  What's it like?  I presume it's not stylistically similar to MBV, but
  how would you describe it?

carson, sometimes I wonder if you're a social butterfly or a stalker. d=

I think he's a social stalker. Hmmm... sounds like a great band name.
