Up next week - you. Your movies, your comix, your songs and performances.
Email me as soon as possible to let me know how much time you'll need for your part of the show, how you'll bring your material (DVDs and CDs preferred!) and whether you're loath to show your work to outsiders. (If so, I'll schedule it at the very beginning or the very end...)
I can't wait to see, hear and read what you've all done. Don't forget that the accompanying essays are also due Tuesday, via email.
Yo La Tengo goes to ROCK SCHOOL: "I envy you. So much...rocking to do. I wish you all luck with it."
