wow-<mermen> spiel and i dint even startitup...
yeah *the* rick walker joined the mermen on 4/12 for that digital arts
festival they had in santacruz-unfortunately he was poorly mic'ed and
nowhere in the mix. so the tapes of the show contain little of the
florescent one, unfortunatelee...
as previouslee mentioned:
the mermen rule

goinloopee
stans
(also-jimthomas looped w/ edps originally when they first came out(the
<mermen> ep-"songs of the cows" contain copious loopings very well imbedded
in the tunes) then he became enamored w/ repeater-but it did him bad on
occasion...so its back to edp for his very creative,imaginative loops he
does during their epic,longass shows...
