Um, yeah, you could say the *right* stuff. :-)  Thursday, June 4, it was
Oval and Jim O'Rourke (unless Pita and Fennesz made a special appearance,
but they're supposed to be in LA on the 6th). Monday, June 8, it's going
to be Pita, Fennesz, David Grubbs, and Horst und Snail mit Markus (Pita,
Fennesz, and Jim O'Rourke).  At least, that's what the Empty Bottle
schedule says.

And now for a question....

Just wondering how Pita and Fennesz are in a live setting ... wondering if
it'll be worth the time (starts late, so I'd get home about 3 AM and have
to work the next day), money and hassle (takes an hour to drive there and
then gotta find parking and an hour back home) or if I'll get out and
think "Damn, I could've just sat home and listened to my CDs."  Can't
really find out much info on the web about what their live show is
*really* like - Mego's got some info, but it's not real concrete.  Any
info appreciated....
