Hi, Blue, The looping community down in the Santa Cruz area has been very, very active: I have produced a dozen Loop-centric festivals here and in Big Sur, Mountain View, Berekely and Sacramento. I have been trying for the longest time to try to get someone in San Francisco interested in producing the First San Francisco Looping Festival but San Francisco has run into the same Dot-Com Real Estate nightmare that we have down here and it is hard to find a venue to support such a festival. I haven't given up, but maybe you should consider producing a festival yourself. I would be more than happy to advise you on how to do it. Los Angeles has had their first and New York City is moving, slowly (and I hope surely) towards their first. paranthetical aside: Did the Midwest Looping Festival come off or is it still in the works? If you are interested in traveling south (Santa Cruz = 1 1/2 hours drive, San Jose = 1 hour drive). Steve Lawson and I will be performing solo looping sets and a duet improvisational show at: The CAYUGA VAULT, Santa Cruz, California (corner of Cayuga and Soquel Avenue) Sunday, January 13th 8 p.m. (10$ suggested donation) (with openers, ORBIS) ESPRESSON GARDEN, San Jose, California (Bascome Avenue near the hospital) Monday, January 14th 8 p.m. Come on down and say hi!!!! yours, Rick Walker (aka, Loop.poo
