I didn't see anyone else from this list there...or were you?

- I wanted to go and made a point of checking the date when Drew mentioned
it at a 21 Grand show a while back ... but we had a show last night, that
was really great. I actually got to see Zs full set - when they played last
July I missed half of it because I had to go on a beer run. Ettrick and
Sword & Sandals both played really well - it's been cool to see how Jacob
and Jay have developed as a duo in the past year or so.

However, the discussion here
was about even more abstract works,  where there is no actual
deliverable involved.  (driving down the highway from LA to LV at 90mph,
a typewriter gets thrown out the window).

- I've seen documentation of this - that's the "ironic" thing about
conceptual art, it regularly gets turned into objects. The photo of the
typewriter by the side of road is quite nice.
