	3:18am diciassette: Ahoy Paulo (or Plato)!
	3:20am Scott67: G'day Fred! 😎🤙
	3:20am Paulo AD: Plato has had his day in the sun today
	3:22am fred: @Paulo: I liked all of these shows, which isn't always the case, so I was lucky this week. I try to see 40-50 contemporary dance shows a year, many by young choreographers I don't know, so some are not for me, it comes with the territory
	3:24am modern blaze: i'll add some aware to these https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhN84rMUbX4
	3:24am Paulo AD: Oh I miss going to those show. Pre covid we went to see Dance by Lucinda Child. One of the best things Ive ever seen and soundtracked by phillip glass
	3:27am modern blaze: i don't go to shows anymore cause there're only alote of club things going on right now...
	3:30am fred: I love Lucinda Childs, I've seen "Dance" several times. A few years ago, she was still performing the solo in the middle herself. I think my favorite of her works is "Available Light", with music by John Adams
	3:33am diciassette: 🎯 thwock
	3:35am Paulo AD: The one we say was the last performace of it. Honest it was breathtaking. NYU AD used to put on a-lot of good stuff like this pre pandemic. The Kronos quartet showed thir doc here once and played a live score to it.
	3:35am Paulo AD: I honestly cannot type today !!!
	3:39am modern blaze: SLF were in every commercial possible in 2000's and i never been admired of that...
	3:39am fred: I used to see Kronos every year, but now tickets are just too expensive. They're great, but I won't spend 50+ euros on a concert (even for dance, it would have to feature Cynthia Loemij, and I still might balk)
	3:42am modern blaze: check the mate like Big Boys in entitled...
	3:44am Paulo AD: Fred - the joys of NYU and AD subsidising tickets over here to get people to come
	3:46am modern blaze: believe it or not but NYU is still big and upfronting like colleague...

	4:12am Ike: I 💜 Low
	4:12am Brian D: Thank you, @Chaos.
	4:20am fred: @Brian: putting a DJ premium together might be a challenge for a show with a current events focus. It might be 6 months between the time you make it and the time I get it
	4:21am Brian D: Yeah @Fred. We're working through that. Thankfully, I have some time...
	4:21am Brian D: And coming up with an idea is a nice problem to have!
	4:24am Paulo AD: Yeah, it's not the worst problem is it :)
	4:24am Scott67: G'day Ike.👍😎
	4:30am fred: @Paulo: There was a plate premium (for Seven Second Delay) at some point. I don't know if some are left in the prize warehouse, but if Plato gets complacent...
	4:30am Paulo AD: Oh really ! I'll be having a word with him later to pull his socks up
	4:31am diciassette: hahahaha
	4:32am Paulo AD: Right I'm off for dose number 3
	4:39am Ike: Happily, Daniel Blumin is not moving “off the schedule”, he’s just going to Monday nights 9-midnight. Three hours for Blumin, yay!
