Getting into a Groove

So my former traveling companion Dean came to town a week ago just to hang out as he made his way to San Francisco. We had a great time chilling at my place, watching baseball, and hangin with my music buddies. Then Thursday night was the Composers Orchestra concert, which included Josh's piece "Houses Built Without Walls." It features me as the soloist, playing distorted guitar like a madman while the rest of the ensemble plays quietly and occasionally responds to my lewd actions. Here's what my guitar looked like:
Needless to say, almost everything fell off during the performance as I was thrashing away.
Then two nights ago we had our "Man with a Movie Camera" performance in which Ensemble 48 performed its own semi-improvised score to the classic Russian silent film. We somehow had a huge crowd, and played surprisingly well. For an encore, we reperformed "Shaft" because last time the mics were all screwed up and we didn't really do the piece justice.
As some of you already know, there was an article written about Ensemble 48 recently in NUVO, Indy's cool free arts paper. It's pretty amazing. We've been invited to play on Halloween in front of some horror movie, perhaps Nosferatu, who knows. It's just great to be a part of something so awesome. I love these guys. In closing, I feel very sorry for Cubs fans, but am looking forward to Josh Beckett's performance tonight. Should be an instant classic.
