Bush vs. umbrella: a picture of grace.

[thanks to John Jourden]


Thanks to the Metro Times for the vote of confidence and the love. The Movement editorial is dead-on. Nothing but praise to Derrick May and everyone at Transmat for selflessly dedicating impossible hours and personal finances (in the six-digit range) to make it all happen. However, the poor organization and complete lack of communication prevent the festival from being what it could and should be... from being what Derrick wants it to be: the American equivalent of SONAR. Money or no money, it all comes down to delegation and communication. There are so many talented people in the city (and around the world for that matter) who would give their all for the festival if the process were open and straight-forward. If its for the community, the community should be involved from the start... nothing gets people motivated faster than honesty and a sense of ownership. < /soapbox >
