I drove down yesterday afternoon. It was amazing. I heard Tom at Nova 
Nights
(the Den of Cin is a small performance space)
and Downtown Music Gallery (a cd shop the size of a hallway) in NYC
and this was his best set yet. Nova was in mono and DMG was in stereo
but it's not a large enough space to make it obvious...

St. Mary is an old church, a nice ambience but they had a nice sound
re-enforcement
system. Both Tom and the amazing Spectral Voices used stereo reverbs
that made them sound HUGE. Cool light show too. It looked like we
under water during parts of Tom's set. I'd say it was the best set I've
heard from Tom during his short stay in the area.

I'm familiar with Spectral Voices from their CDs (well, I know these guys,
when I met them in '97 they were showing me their singing skills @ the 
Dream
House http://melafoundation.org ), so it's the first time I've really heard
them,
but they blew me away. New EDP users too. :)

I think he's playing in Akron, Ohio on Thursday. And somewere in Canada,
but I don't have the info on that gig.  And maybe one last date in NYC
on Oct. 5th or 6th. We'll see about that one.

Get his album. It kicks - as well as ambient drones kick. ;)
