A Heralding of Woe

Dear Citizen,

This message is to inform you that the first irr. app. (ext.) public performance will be taking place on March 22nd at the Temescal Arts Center in Oakland, California (511 48th street at Telegraph). Irr. app. (ext.) has maintained an excruciatingly marginal public presence for several years now, and this is the first attempt to display the full shame of its existence before a living audience. The performance will be a pointless combination of both visual and musical performance, location recordings culled from various locations in the U.S. and Ireland, arachnid baiting, object distribution and non-linear line dancing. Also featured are the voices (pre-recorded) of AnneAnneLoriAnne Chambers, Windy Chien, Diana Rogerson and Django Stapleton. The venue is fairly small, but it is still anticipated that almost nobody will show up. Witness a public debacle of breathtaking proportions all by yourself! $5 admission (just to cover expenses). In evidence will be: the audio-mixing and sandwich-making skills Richard Karl Faulhaber; the limber mouthparts and scorpion-wrangling talents of John Scharpen; the fancy footwork and all-consuming rage of Gregory Scharpen; and the gloomy, suffocating, hope-destroying presence of M. S. Waldron.

Those interested in the related art exhibit at Aquarius Records can either use the immediately preceding link, or go to Aquarius' website.

We thank you for your indulgence; pray come and bring your many many friends trailing along in your wake.
