    The Luggage Store Gallery Presents: (1007 Market St. at 6th)

    8pm-11pm

    A night of Sound Performance, Video and Art.

    Program notes:

    Murder Murder, a rotating cast of musicians put together by Paul Costuros, will be performing a piece called Pac-Man. Tonight it involves Costuros on Clarinet and Trombone, Liz Allbee on Trumpet, Marshall Trammell on Drums, Chris Dixon on drums and a fifth person playing the arcade game Pac-Man which will be projected on the wall for all to see. Once the game starts, all the musicians improvise at once. Each musician has a different 'Power Pellet' assigned to them. When there Pellet is eaten by Pac-Man, then they take a solo for the duration that the 'Ghosts' are eatable. Then when the Ghosts turn back, everyone will join in again. If the Pac-Man is eaten by a Ghost, then all the players will stop untill the game starts again. This piece explores the need to get rid of 'President' Bush.

    We will also be doing this performance at the 21Grand on 2/25 see below...
