Yeah, I was going to mention them, but I missed their show when they were in town so I don't know for sure how it comes off in the performance. A friend of mine had the impression that they had things pretty rigidly sequenced to their music. That's probably fine for their style, but I wonder about the possiblities of using broadcasting equipment like they do for a more improvised approach. Actually, EBN might be doing more of this by now, I haven't checked up on them in a while. It seemed like they were very interested in the idea when I read an interview a couple years ago. kim ________________________________________________________ Kim Flint 408-752-9284 Mpact System Engineering kflint@chromatic.com Chromatic Research http://www.chromatic.com
