Hard Core Logo... LIVE?

Michael Scholar Jr. brings a new interpretation of Hard Core Logo to the stage. \o/

Here's a link to the 5-minute podcast from Plank Magazine about the project. The "in-progress viewing" that he talks about is happening today at the Banff Centre at 3pm. So anyone in the Banff/Calgary-area could theoretically make it now... I think? Calgary is 3 hours behind? Or is it 2?

The stage show doesn't seem to be scheduled to be... live... until November, in Edmonton (and then shown at the Push Festival in Jan/Feb 2011?). Which, I CANNOT BELIEVE IT, might just coincide with my tentative plans to take a trip to Vancouver in November! HOW WEIRD IS THAT? Well, if it actually works out, it'd be awesome. Edmonton is only a 12-hour drive from Vancouver. I could do it! And then I could re-create the HCL road trip, as Liz suggested. (Except if she doesn't go I don't think I'd do it by myself.)

As for the show itself... it seems to be a new interpretation, so who knows what it'll be like! But then we'll have more meta, and I'M KINDA OKAY WITH THAT. =D


ETA: Feel free to repost the link! But let me know where, because I wasn't sure which comms would be the right ones to crosspost to.

Wow, that sounds pretty damn cool. Too bad I live an 10 hour flight from Vancouver. Hope you can manage to attend! \o/

Wow, great find!
That sounds really intriguing.

Hope you can make it in November! And travel the country HCL sytle ;)

Great find! I'm really, really intrigued to see what they do with it, especially as Joe DOA is providing the music!

A HCL road-trip sounds like the Best Idea Ever. And now I'm pondering how to get the boyfriend to agree to a cunningly-timed holiday in Canadaland — I'm sure flights are ridiculously expensive from Ireland. That said, I could totally tempt him with the promise of snowboarding in Whistler. :D
