Some Americans are just so proud and idle...sorry to disturb that feeling sometimes.
Yes, yes! Proud to be an idler! That's me, to a T, absolutely! AND, something I feel that NY z-listers will find interesting, at the Anthology Film Archives (taken from their print calendar): Thursday Sept. 12th Music for Harry Smith: John Zorn and Friends In honor of the magnificent restortation of Harry Smith's magnum opus "Mahagonny", John Zorn will headline a pair of shows dedicated to Smith, his films and his all-around alchemical lifestyle. The show will feature rare films by Smith, as well as interviews and documentation of the man in action. Zorn and his special guests (To Be Announced) will present new compositions and performances inspired by Smith's masterful works. If you were present at last Halloween's Kenneth Anger benefit, then you understand how special this event will be. If you missed it -now's your chance. Check out the website for details as the date approaches! http://www.anthologyfilmarchives.org Just to make clear, I'm not in any way affiliated with Anthology, besides being a lover of their programming. They are showing much of Smith's other work to coorespond with the re-release of "Mahagonny", so, lots to do in September! Nirav -- AIM: Icefactory37 OnNow- Old Man Gloom- Seminar III (yow!)
