For future reference, if you want to know anything about this series, please ask me. It's been my baby for almost 4 years now, before I even began working as The Rotunda's coordinator.
Anyway, David Gerbstadt won't be at the March 19 show. I want to give the audience a break. :) Why could you not close your eyes at the show? I noticed several people doing just that. Also, I leave an open space in front of the stage, so that people can lounge on the floor and lie all the way down, if they wish. I also noticed people doing that. I'd love a donation of comfy chairs so that those not wanting to lie on the floor could still relax. Please let me know if you ever come upon these treasures! Personally, I love the oil projections. I do not like his slides, and have encouraged him not to use them. Artists usually request him, or at least are fine with his work. Some, however, bring their own films (like Sharks with Wings, the 2nd band, did). If a band requests no visuals from David, he stops. I also agree with your comments on the buffet. thanks for coming!!!! gina [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: > D.

Made me sorry I had forgotten to bring my digestive pills along. I wonder if the performers ever ask him to, you know, stop with the projections while they're performing? I know I certainly would if I were performing there. His projections are incredibly distracting and he doesn't appear to put much thought into matching what he's doing with what the performers are doing, so there's no... what's the word, synaesthesia? going on. It's unfortunate that it's nearly impossible not to do one of 1) close eyes or 2) watch projections. The ministry of inside things were awesome, no doubt. Oh and i forgot to tell the chef that it would make sense to put the condiments AFTER the rest of the food given the direction of the queue. The way it was set up, it was plates/ cutlery -> drinks -> condiments -> salad -> entree -> dessert. So you had to finish the line and then butt back in at the condiments area to season the food. Plus you had to carry your drink with you down the line, which almost guarantees spillage at some point in the evening. -- Matthew Snyder Philadelphia, PA ---- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named "Culture."
