I went. It was amazing. The set started with Dick Slissig doing this really repetative guitar loop over and over again for about 20 minutes, varying it very slightly in a Reich kind of way. People were going crazy with boredom but it was a really creepy feeling that was totally absorbing and mind blowing.
When Matmos came on they started by blowing a straw through water and then sampling it and looping it. That kind of set the tone for the rest of the evening. It even verged on Smojface at times with nasty anatomical video back-drops.
All in all a lush night out followed by strolling the streets of Venice at dusk.

yo i showed up at the show on the first night but as it was sold out we couldn't fanangle a way inside. we hung out for a bit outside the venue just to check out the scene then went for a coffee at a litte cafe near-by.
sounds like it would have been fun.
too bad. so sad

Well, the graffiti scene is good. There aren't too many tourists (like Verona, Venice etc). Its small enough to be personal but big enough to escape and not be noticed. the architecture is varied. The food is good. It's one hour from the beach and one hour fromt he mountains....etc.
All it needs is some life injecting into the music scene....which is where I come in if I were to live there again ;o).

It sounds dope.
I also forgot to say most of my Italian friends are there and that;s what really counts. Without friends I am nothing.

Where the fuck did eVolume go to? I wanted to stick my tongue out at him as I manaaged to fandangle my way into the concert even though it was sold out. I played the pissed-off English muscian adn they gave way in the end. Did you talk to the girls on the desk or the dude upstairs?

yeah we went to the show in Venice. on the first night. i suppose we could have tried harder to get in but since we don't really speak itallian i wasn't sure how far we could really push it. too bad i didn't see you outside or something, it would have been sweet to have a native speaker campaigning for us.
oh well. the past is just that... past.
