Group shot to start,
these photos are only the beginning of the photos and media that should
be rolling in soon from the official documentarians. These photos are
from Scott Larsen's disposable point ant shoot.
Group shot taken in Pittsburgh befor the Tofishy show. Left to Right,
Dr. Calimari, Qfishy, Sawfishy, Jeni, Flip-flopsy, Tina, Jamie, dr. Gneemu,
Bret, and Larry Fishmu.
Pittsburgh will never be the same.

Rare photo from the
forgotten show, our Kent Ohio stop at the Mantis Gallery, which is operated
by some cool artists. We did the show with only four of us and little
time to set up, it turned out quite quaint.
Music was much more minimal, with sometimes only one musician. I would
suggest booking at the Mantis for the experience, the crowd was small
but very cool and appreciative. Devo and legendary punk rockers played
across the street at the legendary but now defunct JB's.

The
climax of our Kent show and the first unveiling of Tofishy! Man Tofishy
can step to the Rhumba. Tofishy made some friends and then it was off
to Pittsburgh.

Jeni, and her ever-evolving
cyberlab assistant costume, with working hydraulic "smart breasts"
and robotic fluid dispensers, every lab should have one!
Notice the license
plate of the squidbot at the lober left. We're still waiting for some
good pics of the ole squidbot, voted best word of the 2000 Black Sheep
Festival.

Dr.
Calimari and Qfishy! What will the DNA splicers think up next. Dr. Calimari's
therimin playing and Qfishy's quacaba playing helped to lure and coerce
the Sulfuric worms into submission. Sound waves travel better if your
associated with water don't ya know.

Sawfishy,
seen here doing his morning Tai-Chi. |

Bret,
the man inside the sulfuric vent worm.

It
got kind of sentimental with the squidbot. Or is that saucy? Check those
fins out on the squidbot!

EE helped by performing as Satan's minions
for Rick Bach's puppet show starring Liz Hammond as Princess Unattainable.
Rick wanted his strings pulled.

A fine shot of EE'ers under the famed "Singing
Bridge of Sharpsburg". The bridge makes weird ambient rhythms and noises
as cars go by, accompanied and recorded by EE with Therimin, Trombone, and
Drums. The millworkers across the tracks were ready to bust out their exotic
noise instuments and try out some John Cage compositions. |

A different perspective on the Singing
Bridge.

Artist Tim Kaulen's giant blow up recycled
fiberglass sign puppet outside the Brewhouse theatre. It is magnificent. |
| Oh my! The legendary Frankie Capri, performing
for hours as the last act of the Puppet Fest and causing the outbreak of
a night's worth of mayhem and extreme expression. This guy is a must see
relic of century. That night was one of the more insane nights ever witnessed
and capped off another amazing festival, packed to the lid with great entertainment,
fun, puppets, kids, adults acting like kids in a good way, and art. Put
it on your list of things to see for next year, Frankie and EE are already
booked. |

One more shot of the squidbot, tentacles taken
off shoot out and if you can look closely, you can see Brainy puppet at
the steering wheel. |
