The following event took place during the original
Miles To Oz weekend.
Spontaneity and destiny collided when
Sidd, the low
temperature physicist, and the guys from
Glistening Trail Records
set out to meet their friends,
Steve Holloway
and
Kyle Turner.
The group had found each other over the Internet at
RomBox.Com. It would be their first
meeting. Sidd and the gang were interested in finding out how
Stop That Noise fits into RomBox and
The
Philadelphia Spirit Experiment. It would be an
experiment in the chaotic systems of spontaneity
and destiny.
And, this is what happened....

Kyle exhibited an amazing ability to create balance in music by combining screaming bass lines, and at the same time, he was able to create a counter balance with screaming lead vocals. Don't try it at home... it could be dangerous.
Steve, on the other hand, is one of the best drummers the world has ever seen. Not only that, but he plays in multi-bands. In fact, that same night he played with the improvisional band Cross Town Traffic. Throughout the night he demonstrated his ability to play anything, with anybody, at anytime without missing a beat.
I was so impressed that I asked Steve and another great improvisor involved in the project, C. Moore Teetes, to write a piece -
