Review by glenesis

it was amazing. The space is a beautiful glass atrium filled with very tall palm trees. The natural reverb is perfect for an ambient show such as this. The show was a tribute to a record that is a tribute to the missions to the moon, and as the band played, the nearly-full moon traversed the glass roof of the building, climbing over the building from the opposite side from the stage. It was a fairly intimate performance, with a quiet and respectful crowd.

What about the music? This album has been living on my iPod for a while, and the top-notch musicians delivered it beautifully, accompanying a visual show of NASA Apollo footage and stills. What can I say? Thank you to the musicians for the gift of this incredible, magickal performance.

Cheers!
