	January 14, ~~1993~~<blockquote>Just a short note kinda in response to what Douglas had to say re: the Red Crayola show. He was a bit too luke warm -- they were plenty swell and I didn't get the impression they were unrehearsed at all. There was far too much playing in unison with far too few obvious mistakes for them not to have rehearsed a few times at least. My only regret was that most of the songs were fairly tightly scripted (no "[[Free Form Freak-Out\|Free Form Freakout]]" action here) and the amount of spontaneous guitar interplay was limited. Mayo seemed to be calling all the shots and even got a little Frippish in expressing his displeasure at what must have been mistakes (but which sounded fine anyway). Still, there was an overall sense of lightness and fun that is often missing from so many shows these days.</blockquote>		January 14, 1994<blockquote>Just a short note kinda in response to what Douglas had to say re: the Red Crayola show.

Douglas D. Wolk

January 11, 1994<blockquote>Went to the Thread Waxing Space shows on Friday and Saturday nights. Friday night was pretty dismal. [...] Last night was considerably better. More SK paintings, plus some really good bands. Palace Brothers played as a five-piece, kind of unrehearsed--they had to stop a bunch of songs while everybody figured out what key they were in. By the end of the set, though, they were doing just fine--a very long, powerful version of "I Was Drunk At The Pulpit" was a highlight. [[The Red Crayola|Red Crayola]] did their first show in five years, which was kinda strange. It was [[Mayo Thompson]] with [[David Grubbs|Dave Grubbs]] and somebody else from Bastro/[[Gastr del Sol|Gastr Del Sol]]. [<nowiki/>[[John McEntire|John McIntyre]]. - Sean] The impression I got was that they hadn't rehearsed more than once or twice, but the Gastr types knew all the Red Crayola songs anyway. Lots of old material--they opened with the [[Portrait of V. I. Lenin in the Style of Jackson Pollock, Part I|Jackson Pollock song]] with the long title, played "[[Black Snakes (song)|Black Snakes]]," and did a couple of the pieces from the original Red Crayola albums from '68 or so. And Mayo's voice is like a much lower-pitched David Thomas--"hey, I thought that the [[Pere Ubu]] people were in the band last time!" [...]</blockquote>
