Live Art At Bonnaroo

[papageorgio]

When I went to Woodstock 94 one of the coolest things all weekend was a guy name Denny Dent. he was on the main stage and they would be jammin Hendrix and by the time purple haze was threw he would have a sweet painting of Jimmy. He did a bunch I think Dylan, Janis, Cocker ... It was awesome! It looked like he was just throwing buckets and splashing paint around haphazardly and in a matter of minutes they were works of art. I think the guy died. I believe he still has a protege out there. Or maybe someone knows of similar acts. Would love to see something like that again . It seems right up Roo's alley. What y'all think?

Doesn't STS9 have some guy that does that some of their shows? I have never seen that happen but I think I remember reading about it somewhere?

I think this is the guy that was Denny's student. Not sure if he is as good. www.brianolsenart.com/gui/About.html

In fact, at the first or second Roo I saw a painter in one of the tents gettin' down with the live interpretation stylez.

I remember Ozomatli having an artist on stage at one of their shows awhile back (maybe 4-5 years ago). Interesting concept...
