The Same Girl is Nicolas Field (percussion — also member of PHO) and Gilles Aubry (electronics). They play tonight in Amsterdam at Kraakgeluiden in OT301 and tomorrow evening, 21.00 at the Jan van Eyck in Maastricht. I’ll be there — (= in Maastricht).

Hmm, wouldn’t it be much more fun to put up some quotes from Consider the Lobster? Almost finished it & it’s such fun to read DFW’s (yeah, again I use the word fun) essays. Also a very nuanced analysis of the state of the United States, in the period 1995 – 2005. The wikipedia entry is a stub, but it has an overview of the content: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consider_the_Lobster.

In less than an hour, here at the Jan van Eyck, I’ll be attending the presentation of Liesbeth Huybrechts and Ive Stevenheydens, entitled Power plays: interior desires, exterior spaces. Can’t find too much online of what they’re up to. Was planning to sign up for a studio visit, but yesterday the list was already overbooked. Rarely happens.

Well, tomorrow you’all can listen to Oorbeek on the radio: radio 747, Zeldzaam Dwars, 23.00. It’s a live performance we did in the radio studios last year, plus a long interview. Seems to’ve become quite okay. Guess the program will be online afterwards: http://www.vpro.nl/programma/zeldzaamdwars.

Morgen op radio 747, 23.00, Zeldzaam Dwars, met een live optreden (vorig jaar opgenomen in de radiostudio), en een interview. Daarna ook online te luisteren: http://www.vpro.nl/programma/zeldzaamdwars.
