Frog Eyes
Another performance at a private residence. Frog Eyes, which according to the City Paper’s Bret McCabe, is in a world “where life is near impenetrable yet everything is infused with the static erotic charge of an Ingmar Bergman flick.” Can’t be mainstream, can it? $6

A 'COMMANDING' REVIEW
Buy Link 9 [musae] or better yet subcribe to Link: A Critical Journal on the Arts. Reader beware, although no longer associated with Link, Jimbo was on its board of directors at one time.
While I haven’t read all of Link 9 or listened to the entire CD, everything I did read, hear, or see was worth my attention. Clarinda Harriss’s poem “Mozart Night: Stains on a Long White Dress” is alone worth the cost of the issue.
Fringe is about process. Link’s Editorial Board decides upon a topic and editor for each issue and then publicizes a call for proposals from anyone interested in writing on the topic. The writers selected do not need to be professional critics or writers; they do need to have an interesting point of view and the ability to communicate it. This makes for some out-of-the-ordinary criticism that frequently resonates with Jimbo. While you’re at it, buy the back issues, too.
Ask for it at your favorite bookstore; if it’s not there, order it. Individual copy $13, two issues subscription $25
