“Entertainment is about telling everybody that everything is alright but music is on the side of the upsetters and that’s where I’m at.” – Bill Bruford

The status quo was definitely upset on Saturday night.

The Socal music continuum (well, 48 local players) turned it upside down and rolled it ’round and ’round in a golden lottery tumbler.

Tookie was the wild card. Fun was had.

And in the end, L.A. made twelve new groups.

I knew something special was in store when I saw this. Dalton and his rideshare (Note: add credit) brought her from Oakland.

L.A. musicians are top notch. They were for the most part prompt too.

Ladies & gentlemen….

Brace yourselves.

This is kinda fun.

For the start of something new.

Darin Vartanian’s Arkind Art was super cool. I kept looking at this bug lady painting in the back while we were doing our thing. Weird!

Project Infest was the best—great venue, great hosts, great spirit. Thanks you guys.
