V (debut! - feat. Tim Young) - Sat, June 28th @ Lo-Fi (Seattle + WEBCAST!)

Hi folks! Speaking of the great Naked City, webcasts, and such, note that guitarist Tim Young (Zony Mash), who recently warmed up Wayne Horvitz's NC chops with a performance of Torture Garden here in Seattle, will be debuting an ambitious new project next weekend, and it will be webcast! Check it out: (and note the mp3 demo download links!) "V" ~ psychedelic rock/pop orchestra debut! ~ plus a special appearance by FOOT IN MOUTH ~ dance/music ensemble ~ * Saturday, June 28th, 2003 * at Lo-Fi (www.lofiseattle.org) - a great new performance gallery - 429B East Lake Avenue East (Seattle) 10:00 pm PST / $8 at the door / 21+ beer / wine / cocktails (hosted bar) * Live net (audio) broadcast link: www.locusproductions.com V is an ambitious and joyous undertaking. This sixteen- strong (and growing) Seattle-based collective, led by Timothy Young & Paul Moore (personnel below), will bring to life the archetype of the grandiose psychedelic orchestra. Their lush, energetic, and elaborate arrangements will remind us all of the sweet love and singular oneness of our lives, dreams and/or vision quests. V's epic, rock-opera-esque songs aim to liberate us from the pestilence and oppression that has besieged us in these dark times. As one might expect, V's time- warping and multiple-genre-crossing musical influences are far too many to name or describe, but it can be stated that their emotional honesty, sincerity of purpose, moving grandeur, innocent eclecticism, and mythic evocation is akin in spirit to that of Neil Young, The Polyphonic Spree, The Flaming Lips, Os Mutantes, and T-Rex. V personnel: Timothy Young (Zony Mash, Guitar Monks, David Sylvian, Very Special Forces, etc.) - guitar/vocals/co-leader Paul Moore (Very Special Forces, Eyvind Kang, Aiko Shimada, etc.) -synth/guitar/vocals/co-leader Eryn Young (The Youngs, Bloodbunny, Foot in Mouth) - vocals Reggie Watts (Maktub, Das Rut, Jumbalaya) - vocals Richard Bishop (Sun City Girls) - guitar Don McGreevy (The Spoils, Master Musicians of Bukkake) - acoustic guitar Ron Weinstein (Crack Sabbath, Suffering Fuckheads) - Hammond B-3 organ Alex Guilbert (Hammer of the Gods, Big Bang Band) - piano Mike Kaiser (Fire & Nice Big Band, Cate) - trombone Dave Carter (Skerik, Wayne Horvitz, Aiko Shimada) - trumpet Mark Oesterle (Very Special People) - sax/flute Erika Kapin (Michael White) - violin Lori Goldston (Black Cat Orchestra, Nirvana) - cello Kaveh Rastegar (Dave Fiuczynski, Action Figure Party, Kneebody) - bass Dave Brogan (ALO, Aiko Shimada, Stasis) - drums/percussion Andy Roth (Zony Mash/Wayne Horvitz, Robin Holcomb) - drums Download a few V songs (*demos) on mp3! Instructions: type "vmusic" at the prompt * "What Kind of Fool?" http://tinyurl.com/ekl7 * "Bud" http://tinyurl.com/eklf * "5 'Til the Break of Day" http://tinyurl.com/ekli {*not with the entire orchestra} Foot in Mouth produces edgy, entertaining dance theater that blends, beyond recognition, the sights and sounds of performance. It's an innovative integration of sound and movement that refreshingly redefines the means and ways in which live music can accompany dance. Foot in Mouth has appeared, to critical acclaim, at On the Side and at On the Boards' annual Northwest New Works festival ('03) - http://tinyurl.com/ez9o - and is set to perform at this year's Bumbershoot and TBA (Portland Institute for Contemporary Art) festivals. Foot in Mouth: Alice de Muizon & Amelia Reeber (collaborative choreography) + Ivory Smith & Eryn Young (manipulated vocals). Questions? thesqueegee(a)attbi.com or leave a message at 206.339.3975 ~ THE SQUEEGEE PR ~ p.s. -- listening to the NC webcast, did ya hear that audience member exclaim "What the fuck?" after they played Slan? My sentiments exactly.... ;-) Also fun were those "Pretty Woman" guitar licks that Frisell was playing when I tuned in....what song was that? Whatever the case, times like these make me say: "WOW" (gotta love this internet technology!)

Maybe we should form a small Zorn lobby and all write to the dutch radio station and demand that they also broadcast the encores! I'm sure they must have recorded them. _________________________________________________________________ STOP MORE SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail

>Why didn't they play the encores!? Everyone was raving about "The Vault;" >I >want to hear it! Yes, exactly. It was obvious that they got better and better the more they played. "You Will Be Shot" was pretty shaky but pretty soon they were tearing down the walls! _________________________________________________________________ Protect your PC - get McAfee.com VirusScan Online http://clinic.mcafee.com/clinic/ibuy/campaign.asp?cid=3963

Wauuuuw, it's great to hear Frisell play cool music again!! - even if he makes a couple of mistakes I never thought I'd hear him play "Jazz Thrash Assassin" again, but he damn near managed! _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.

No, you're right!! Just hang on and Naked City should be at some later point. I think the show still goes on for almost two more hours. >I went to that link, and clicked what was at the top of the page. I am >hearing a very cool string quartet (I assume quartet, though there could be >more there). Is this the right webcast? Have I missed Naked City? Please >help me out; I'm a bit clueless here. _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus
