this is a well-written and insightful article. one problem i do have though is that marvin is depicted as a power hungry, shrill b*tch. i wonder how she would've been covered had she been male? even though a woman wrote the article, i still wonder about this.
i bought a cheap southwest ticket a few days ago so i'll be in the city this weekend (cell phone 314-369-5513)...but while i plan to check out as many after sets as i can, i don't know how much of the event itself i'm going to see. there is still a chance to resurrect this festival, but the question is whether people really want to struggle for this. there's an implication in the article that in the beginning of the demf everything was groovy...and then some individual (marvin) f*cked it up inexorably. i believe that marvin never should have fired craig. i also believe that marvin's contract should not be renewed...and that a consortium of old heads should run the show, if the show continues at all. but people have to be willing to fight, and have to be willing to acknowledge the possibility that they can still win, and through struggle make this into something special...not special in a 2001 sense, because we can't go back to the future. peace lks --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
