That's it! From now on, I'm burning sage at my festival and hiring a few dozen half naked neo-hippie teenagers reeking with petruli oil, 2 week old sweat, and reefer smoke, to haphazardly prance around the back of the venue. :) Oh yeah, and they all have to drive their parents' Beamers to the :show. I can see my ticket sales quadrupling already...KaChing! Kris ----- Original Message ----- "unless a festival can secure enough corporate sponsors, you are > forced to run it this way" This is true for fringe art festivals that appeal to other weirdo artists,but there's a really thriving festival scene. The jamband festival scene is raging. In that world if you play a grooving head with enough melody to be catchy you can take it literally anywhere you want,and the audience will listen. In fact if you don't take chances and expolre you won';t be popular in that world. But you have to give 'em a clear entrance and exit. "A human being is a part of a whole, called by us _universe_, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."
