Controlled Burn Appreciates Local Artist
Support!!
support Controlled Burn and being willing to share your considerable
talent with us. Our own Pat Herz (link opens in new window) has
been snapping Controlled Burn most of this year, and that link is to
his Flickr site. We have also heard from David Guntner (link opens in
new window) who's gotten some amazing shots, and also Severio Cine
(link opens in new window) who snapped a bunch of pics from the
DaDa Motel opener. Controlled Burn encourages everyone to visit
these fabulous artists, look at their pictures, say "hi" to them if you
see them at our shows, and please admire their magnificent talent.
Controlled Burn thanks you and we tip our hat to you in sincere
gratitude and thanks! If you'd like to be added to the above list
or have snapped photos of Controlled Burn, we'd love to hear from
you! Please contact Gemini and she will arrange to get your
photos/footage from you.
This Winter, News Channel 4 visited Controlled Burn, and did a piece on us. Check it out! Thanks so much to Isa Isaacs (Temple of Poi), for obtaining this footage and allowing us to be a part of it!
