I am currently in CA at a conference and at the kick off reception there are all these celebrity impersonators. One particularily creepy one is a Clark Gable. I am here with several co-workers. I mentioned that they remind me of a time I was in Chicago to see some friends of mine play in a band and they opened up for the really insane, amusing, and scary cross dressing david bowie impersonator. A guy I have worked with for over 2 years says "Oh, Ziggy 2000!" needless to say, my jaw dropped. A friend of his said he should check out this guy because he has hilarious and terrifying and that words could not describe the experience. that's about right. how about this for off topic… I am currently in CA at a conference and at the kick off reception there are all these celebrity impersonators.

Yeah, Synthestra I was a first attempt and as such was completely derivative of what I'd been reading about/listening to. As I become more comfortable with the composition/orchestration process, I'm feeling freer to use my own flavor injector. So to speak. Jim: Thanks.

Well maybe happier. The nickname Potatoes is cute. Anywho, I'm liking this one more than Synthestra I. It really is more involved, as far as specific instrument groupings and dynamics, and seems less cliche stylistically than the side Willie Feeds pushes more towards.
