nicholas fry.he came with us for a few days as we explored sedona....an old friend in a new time...it was amzing to spend time with him...............especially in the unknown world....at least unknown to us....(but we did find some great dumpsters in sedona...it was his dumpster training skool.....and we ate well that night,,,,,,,very well...........)
the tall bike by candlelight in the park in el paso.....quite the spectacle as always...

salt lake city.that is where we r today......it is about 22 degrees.last night we went to an amazing show at boing,an anarchist collective,,,,,when we got there, people were loading about 20 boxes of food upstairs for food not bombs,,,,,and there is a huge library,a few cats and bikes everywhere,and of course a free box on the porch........they proceeded to transform the comfortable living space into a concert hall in 2.3 minutes flat.including soundproofing the room with mattresses over all the windows...................people started flooooding in and when the show started,everyone was asked to sit.there were about 30 silent smiling faces with legs crossed anticipating what was to come..........and what was to come was james miska and chaz,a man i am unaware of his last night or even the spelling of his first,but i am aware of the fact that he could touch that guitar in some amazing ways..........but james and chaz took turns playing songs for over an hour or so..........everyone listened so intently.and to hear james play again made me so happy...........he pushes every limit while making such beautiful music,,,and chaz was creating symphonies of sound and color and emotion with his eyes closed and fingers dancing.......and as sooon as they were done,the next act started setting up,a band,trebuje,,,which is what the mattresses were for.......james plays guitar,and eric is the singer screamer exclaimer,,,and it was his birthday.....but the atmosphere quickly turned into one of participation ,the second the music started the room was alive with dancing and jumping and pushing,,,,,friends that loved thier friends music.i stood back and watched as this happened.....and not one single person was holding a bottle of alcohol.this was sheeeeer indulgence in the noise and music and vibrations.....everyone was one massssive explosion.it was an amazing site...................................i am gonna put up a few pictures.....not in order of happpening,,,,,,,but some nice ones...........
