The website that has been graciously donated and maintained by Bernhard
Wagner
(the mastermind behind the wonderful Zurich Live Looping Festival this
past
month).
Bernhard, I have to say, is having a banner month. He is a headliner
for
this years'
Y2K5 Festival; he just produced the best live looping festival I've ever
seen and he
has a beautiful new debut live looping solo CD out. I will write a full
review of this wonderful
record as soon as I am able to breathe after Y2K5, but it's a goody.
Suffice it to say that you should buy one from him while he is in America
(and the shipping charges are low.............lol)
A quick note to all Performing Artists:
1) Please go to the website site and see if there is any information that
you can fill in
or correct and e-mail me immediately so I can change it. It would be
great
to have current e-mails and
URLs for your music for every artist.
Just put the bold letters WEBSITE INFO: Y2K5 (YOUR NAME) in the subject
header of our email to me and mail it to rickwalker@looppool.info .
This way I can collate the information and update the website very
quickly.
Thanks a lot!!!!
2) I will be posting set orders of all the concerts within two weeks of
today.
The reason I will wait that long is because I have a couple of big acts
that
I am still waiting on
final confirmation from, so I don't want to do all the work to plan it and
then have to do it all over again.
Thanks for bearing with me
3) In two weeks time I will write a very definitive set of instructions
about what we'll all need to do in order to make such a garngantuan
performance come off professionally )load in, performance and sound check
information, et. al.)
4) Also, PLEASE DO NOT flood me with questions about the festival until
you get that email. The amount of email I am sending and recieving
between
venues, transportation providers, accomodation providers, foreign artists
is just completely overwhelming. LOL, the less stressed I am, the
better
the festival will be......................why? Because I"m a stress
puppy
for sure!
Don't worry. Everything will be done in a way that benefits all and I
won't forget anything, I promise.
Thanks a lot!!!!
