hello, solo mon!
Linda Lee: i attended a John Cage performance in SF (1988ish) and at the edge of the stage was a coffee maker. I got up and poured myself a cup during the performance. Years later i was talking with a friend who had been a percussionist in that performance, and he said John was very pleased by that!

mornin y'all! Quite an unexpected delight to wake up to Harry Partch. Had the pleasure of seeing John Schneider of KPFK perform with his "Partch" ensemble - seeing Partch's enormous, handsomely-crafted invented instruments live was quite a feast for eyes and ears.
