I like Chris a lot
CHRIS CORSANO
is an incredible human being
he is such a sweetheart
he remembers names a year later
he is one of the nicest people I've ever met
In terms of Live drum performances
I've been more engaged when he's playing
and I go to a lot of jazz [shows]
Rumor has it, he jammed with PRINCE
after [touring as BJORK's drummer]
Ben Chasney [of SIX ORGANS OF ADMITTANCE] told us
"I'm not sure if it's true but I'm pretty sure it's true,
and I'm going to spread it around anyway
because it's such a cool idea."
BEN CHASNEY [was] my neighbor.
Ben and Elisa Ambrogio [of THE MAGIK MARKERS]
live two doors down
They're dear friends.
I met [Ben Chasney] at Gladtree
(Hampshire College experimental music festival)
And you'll meet Donovan Quinn [of THE SKYGREEN LEOPARDS]
he's my roommate.
Do you like [composer] Phill Niblock?
All the Minimalists are Big for me.
It doesn't even have to be a full setup.
I can just play the viola,
just set up a couple of pedals.
You talk about Universal Consciousness...
The Great Singularity...
According to the Mayan Calendar...
