Ben Grossman - [excerpt]

Last year, the MPS Field Trip made a stop at the CNE Bandshell as an emergency backup spot on a rainy night; it worked out so well it made a return as part of the main rotation. Remnants of the petting zoo and other attractions from The Ex being prepared for their winter's storage filled the parking lot facing the stage, creating a slightly-strange backdrop (under the moon and rapidly-sweeping clouds) for the audience looking out from their protected perch under the ever-stylish arch.

Hurdy-gurdy maestro Ben Grossman created a completely absorbing listening zone, the winding drone unfurling and expanding to curl under the curved beams above and expanding outward.
