SHOW 50

NEW FUMES / DIAMOND AGE

Approximately the 50th D.A. show (I may have missed listing a few) this was a fitting end to a string of live shows before hiding in the shadows finishing a bunch of recordings (maybe even making a release)... NEW FUMES is the reason I played shows in the first place! He coaxed me into playing a show with him at the Kessler in 2010...And here we were 2 years later- it felt weird/good.

I have this sense that not very many people will really give a shit about me not playing out around here- it can get to be a beat-down playing shows around here.

This show was part of the first Oak Cliff Film Fest. Austin's My Education performed a spirited and well rehearsed live score to the FW Murnau silent film "Sunrise" before the "after party" kicked off... I was certain that everyone would leave before i played and most did- but to my surprise, this show was a lot of fun! Playing in that giant space with a loud booming PA was a rarity for me! It sounded crazy on stage. This was the second "guitarless" show I've ever played...it may have even worked.  one regret is I should have thought of some sort of video imagery to play since there was a giant screen and a video projector set up... NEW FUMES was great and his audiovisual assault was well-suited for the TX Theatre.

Ok, insomnia is finally fading----
