11-4-00. "The Eye" went really well...both the bands and the djs rocked, especially Grand Buffet with a super-spooky set. I'd say maybe 100 people were in the place, possibly more came in and out throughout. We got to see how the baby piggie eats. Check out a strong PBS representation at SEANCE, this wed, nov 8th. Hopefully another show is going to be announced sooooooon.

Also look out on Nov. 8 for a downtempo beatlounge event called "Seance", with Justin Malesky doing some guitar, Count Zero, Grandmaster A-Ski, Cutups, Mediate, and Root + visuals from Tara Jean Ewanits and Hobo Bold feat. Jay "Doctor Chimes" Shepler and Dustin "The Tin Man" Genard, at Skooby's in Greensburg. There's lots of shit going on, look for more updates, a few more events are pending..
