No chance Scotty, like I said I was summoned by the man himself hahah

Plato has had his day in the sun today

@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

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...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 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

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.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 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...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 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...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 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...

Thank you, @Chaos.

@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
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:21am
Brian D:

Yeah @Fred. We're working through that. Thankfully, I have some time...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:21am
Brian D:

And coming up with an idea is a nice problem to have!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:24am
Paulo AD:

Yeah, it's not the worst problem is it :)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:24am
Scott67:

G'day Ike.👍😎

@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...

Oh really ! I'll be having a word with him later to pull his socks up

Happily, Daniel Blumin is not moving “off the schedule”, he’s just going to Monday nights 9-midnight. Three hours for Blumin, yay!

Correct Ike. Thank you. Yes, did not mean to imply he was off completely.
