Greetings from Oslo. Have survived the Terries tour (actually very civilized). Of course it was great to hang out with the band (nobody even got into a fight!). Ken's new pieces are excellently mysterious in construction but make sense enough that it was a pleasure playing them again and again and the audiences seemed to be enjoy them too! The forms are a bit like Calder mobiles or something in that they balance but the objects are all different and one isn't quite sure why it doesn't just fall flat.
Onward... Tonight is a quartet with Froede Gjerstad, Amit Senn and Paul Nilsson-Love at Bla here in Oslo (the land of the $11 shot of bourbon!!) and we do it again tomorrow in Stavengar.
After that... am doing some hanging in berlin until the McPhee/Zerang/FLH trio tour...
