"Avant-garde, and decidedly not for everyone, the music of The
Set of Red Things willtimes sound like fingernails on a chalkboard,
but for those of you who appreciate experimental song
arrangements and bizarre vocal tracks, this is the album for you.
Ultimately, The Set of Red Things emerges from a mess of crazy
prog-rock noise into a more predictable Pixies derivative."

Great show Sat. You will be missed and I hope you all continue to do music in addition to your other various endeavors. Here are some of the photos I took. Probably the best of the group. If you want full versions of these or want the whole of what I took drop me a line and let me know your e-mail.
Thanks for adding me. ¶ People hear only what they want, so facts alone won't wake them; they need inspiration too. ¶ This world's evils have a common root: Bullies, liars, thieves, & murderers — whether in school, home, government, or elsewhere — believe we're all separate, motivated only by self-interest, by greed & fear. They want us to share that belief; they use it to justify themselves, to manipulate us, to shape the world's political & economic systems, perpetuating war & poverty. ¶ But you & I have found something better inside ourselves & our friends. It's in everyone, if we can just wake them; we're all one flesh & blood. Let's spread that vision, for until we do our other advances will be minor & temporary. ¶ The outcome of the ideological struggle is not yet determined, so no one can afford to be just a spectator. Join the movement, if you haven't already: get involved in whatever way feels right for you. Question authority. Keep fighting, loving, hoping, singing. Hand in hand, we may still be able to heal this world. ¶ I'm impressed with ideas of Lakoff & Waldman about *how* to spread the vision, so I'm trying to promote their ideas via comments like this one and the essay on my MySpace page. It's free (I'm not selling anything). ¶ The real war is between classes, not nations. So I'll celebrate July 14, not July 4. CLOSE GITMO BY BASTILLE DAY; PASS IT ON. ¶ Love, Eric
