But that's purely because I'm very curious about them and I really want to hear a first-hand report :) __________________________________________________ There are two rules for ultimate success in life. 1.

My last major in college was ethnic and electronic music, and my first published composition was for gamelan ensemble, so I guess I count. I get annoyed by the groups that sample arbitrary ethnic musics to drop on top of banal beats, so there's some stuff in the field that I don't go for, but I do like a lot of the stuff that gets farther out and stays closer to its sources. And, of course, Fela rooooooolz! :-) n.p. Naftule's Dream: Smash, Clap (Laswell-produced Radical Jewish Culture: Free jazz meets klezmer meets.. uh...

Let me know, I'm probably going. Hope to see you there.

Ectophiles, If you were sure that you could get into the Happy show at the Bearsville Theater show, would you go? *Who* would go? For sure? E-mail me, please. There are no guarantees, not at this time, but Happy needs a count and names. Happy has no idea if she can get *any* of us (meaning Ectophiles) in, but she'll see what she can do. The radio station is really calling the shots here, and Happy has her own family and friends she needs to set aside tickets for. If it doesn't work out at all, or if some of the Ectophiles get in and others don't, I hope there's no hard feelings. Just off the top of my head, I can already list Chris and me (wishful/hopeful thinking) Sharon (of course) Chuck and Joe Who else? Meth? woj? Suzanne? Who else?
