Catch-up on Two Meetings

Just a short recap on the past two meetings with the Circle.

9/30/2012 - Victor, Dev, Rick, Glenn, Wayne, Brad, Chris--Scott's out for the night.  Some expanded work with the Guitarist Inside exercise, moving into some circulation work.  A report on the previous weekend's gig at the art gallery (generally seen to be a very positive and well-given performance), and then some work on repertoire.

During the break, a discussion on linear/horizontal vs. vertical time, and how that relates to us and our aims and undertakings.  The Somerville Honk festival is mentioned.

After the break, an initial presenting of a new piece.  A bit more repertoire work, and then we call it a night.  Very late.

10/7/2012 - Victor, Brad, Rick, Glenn, Chris, Scott.  As a result of finding out that the Honk Festival was to be this weekend in particular, and just a lack of time to prepare, the JP Lantern Festival has re-arisen as a performance opportunity--low-budget and low-risk, but likely a good source of work.  We're plugged in tonight via travel amplifiers.

Generally, some repertoire is approached, and we also revisit working with circulation patterns.  "We're getting better."  Not nearly as late of a night as the week before.
