I'm hosting my third annual music festival during the two weeks of the Spoleto festival here in Charleston (SC) from May 28-June 11. This is a free music series that takes place in the auditorium of the main Library. We have in the past received voluminous and ridiculously flattering press coverage. You can sample some audio and video from the shows here: http://www.ccpl.org/content.asp?id=50628&action=detail&catID=6352&parentID=5372 If you've got any sort of promotional film (what the unhip call music videos) I'd be glad to show those on our 20'x20' screen before the bands play (sort of an video opening act, I guess). If you happen to be in the area, I could also fit you in with a short opening set, too. Please contact me off-list if you're interested in either of these ideas (or if you have better ideas of your own). Thanks! K Local Blend 2006 @ The Charleston County Public Library Kevin G.
