crazy music iprovisations

Meet rich

Talks to me about his projects

And mentions gs, I have to walk away,

But also have to pay attention to what he is saying to me as well, - I have to walk away from gs too.


We are going to have music event, me and conor are going to practice some songs for it,
I call off, because I don't feel ready yet,
But then realise I must play stuff with him, even if its only improvised.

We are in a big upstairs hall in a building, me an conor. There are a few mics plugged in and some instruments lying around,

We have done some music playing practices here before, but this time it happens a lot more spontaneous.

I start singing really high notes, conor joins in, harmonising with them, and i go into a trance, and I begin to draw huge spirals on the floor, one continuous long line all the way round the room, while changing the pitch of my voice. I start growling and howling and making all these weird noises. There is someone in the room witnessing our performance, and both me and conor get the feeling that I have really freaked them out. Conor says its ok, and they say that too. It was just a bit of a surprise.

I end up lying in the corner of the room... There is some graffiti on the wall, infact all the walls are now covered with graffiti.

Some people are improvising on the piano. They want me to join in with them, so we form a trio, and they hold a drone rhythm on the lower half, while i improv doing lots of really weird stuff over drone, it is totally wild again, atonal, and even though they are surprised at how wild the sound is, it does work, and sounds really great.. I am realy enjoying myself!
