post-pangea

so the plates have broken up to form continents separated by oceans,and things will evolve in their own way apart from each other.


sean has found another host for his monday nights, and we appreciate his time here. he was very generous and worked immensely hard. i am sad that he is gone.


the inevitable result of change is to have some people fall thru the
cracks. i suppose it is the fate of a space such as this to have
consistant rumblings from inside or out that move it - perpetually to
something new - but i am sorry for any inconvenience or sorrow.
usually our needs here are based more in the logistics of survival,
yet emotional resiliance is necessary to make ends meet as well.


there seems to be a great sentimentality regarding the past, the
mulchy origins of this place, and perhaps it was easier to break and
form anew than to bridge and brace against inevitable evolution.
it is very simple.


this is an amazing space, but it is just a space. it was founded by
people with the ideals and the lack of experience that anyone has at
first. it has been kept alive by those same people plus me. and now
my partner and i plus two new people are here to care for the space.
all of the 'drama' has been very exhausting, and i am proud of the
space - that it still stands. you are part of that, and i appreciate
that.


we have been involved since the beginning, i joined a couple months
after the first show. we do not have the income that earlier people
involved had. we have a humble life selling second chance books. in
order to have this space continue we have to ensure its sustainability
thru a strong collective system. things are different now.


nostalgia junkies will have much to pay tribute to. that is one of the
most beautiful things of life.
and we can hope that they can eventually experience what is hosted
here again...just listen to art...


sean is a great producer, and i know he will be very happy. we were
lucky to have him, even though his shows were some of the most
challenging.


as for il corral, i hope you enjoy it, and continue to make it your
own.


love
***
christie.
