All American Cheapshots, Six Six Crush, Build or Burn, Living Daylights.
Post work, it started like this. I went to see a friend do a performance art thing she does. She's retiring after this event, which got A-Listed in the city pages.
Rosy Simas Guthrie wraps herself up in the stars and stripes--literally--in a work that challenges the complicated issues surrounding patriotism, power, and duty in an era marked by an unpopular war and a dishonest government. Accompanied by a cast of seven dancers including Kellie Brandt, Kristina Graber, Leslie O'Neill, Anna Resele, Dawn Strom, and Galen Treuer, Simas Guthrie combines elements of contact improvisation, theater, and modern dance to explore both the personal and societal implications of being soldier, citizen, and/or artist. It's a protest dance of sorts, but subtle enough to transcend the limitations of current events and political ideology. $10/$12 at the door. 8:00 p.m. Friday and Saturday; 2:00 p.m. Sunday. --Caroline PalmerJAN 13-15, 2006
Because of this we missed the Living Daylights last show. Never saw them but from what I hear they are probably not something I was into anyway. Next up was Build or Burn. Didn't like it at all. They were having some sound issues but they would more fit into a 93X local show than say a Radio K or KFAI show. Not my taste.
Six Six Crush rocked everything in that place. The stage, your cup, the pin on your jacket, they rocked it all. One of the best performance I've seen the guys do. The All American Cheapshots were fun as usual but we didn't get to stay for the whole set cause my ride wanted to leave.
