PHOTOS - ELECTRIC CIRCUS TOUR 2001UPDATED 8/1/2001
Preparing for Electric Circus Tour... too much gear! Blue Bottle Richmond, VA
Why is it that we plan all our gigs with racks of gear? We decided to ADAT all our shows in blind hope that we may catch some brillant sonic accidents. The picture on the left is a shot of the Blue Bottle Restaurant. This is where we began our Electric Circus Tour.

Being the first show, the performance was a tad rough going — nothing seemed to gel — but maybe the ADAT will reveal some overlooked moments.

EB (Eric Bruns) of EB&SK on bass, possibly holding his breath.
SK make'in faces

SK (John Rickman) looking quite strange. I maintain his EB&SK website where he does not allow me to post embarassing pictures like this!

A few video grabs of a much improved set on the downstairs stage at the Free103.9 Kind of looks like Im on stage at a game show with all those fancy flashing lights. Redknyte is having fun with some good 'ole fiddle feedback hoe-down muzik.

Left Pic: Did I mention that it was probably 99 degrees in there. A little sweat on the ribbon controller goes along way for smooth sample tweakin'
Mikroknytes at Undercity, Brooklyn NY
Above Right Pic: On the way to Cleveland, we stopped at this very cool museum called The Mattress Factory. What makes this museum unique is that it specializes in all kinds of sonic as well as visual "installation art."
 
The shows keep getting better. Thanks to DJ Mercy Killah, we were able to get booked at an experimental / ambient event called Undercity which happens every Sunday night at the Halcyon in Brooklyn NY. I cannot recommend checking it out highly enough

Alienrock.net has an article about that evening featuring a short interview with us.
