Performing with Dust From 1000 Years at Open Lot
The video is a little screwed up right now. Hopefully, it is just a vimeo issue.
Thanks to Sean McFadden for shooting this for us.

Open Lot Performance – Session 4
Collaborative Performances Session 4 (3.3.10)
-Stone Jack Jones + Black & Jones
-Dust From 1000 Yrs. + Black & Jones
-Pineapple Explode + Black & Jones
-Blue Cadet Three + Black & Jones
Video and performance artist duo Black & Jones (Barry Jones and Kell Black) take on four sets of diverse music, unifying them into a cogent visual narrative. Black & Jones explore the history of cinema as visual metaphor for aural maturity. Black & Jones’ live, mutli-channel vJing uses contemporary technology to present archetypal narrative in the tradition of bildungsroman.
Session 4 is Open Lot’s fourth installment of this truly impractical collaborative experiment. A musical scattershot of touring musicians is paired up with an equally diverse group of Nashville-based visual/performance artists. Each pairing communicates only by email until the collaborative performance at Open Lot. What results is an improvisation born from necessity: quick, simple, and forcefully unadulterated.
Doors open at 8pm, performance begins at 8:30pm sharp.
$5 admission, $10 admission with open bar. BYOB allowed and encouraged.
This event occurs at Open Lot Nashville, 3.3.10

Chicago Sadness
Snowtorious B.I.G has kept Black & Jones from attended the CAA Conference in Chicago. Dang.
We are going to try to make up for it by spending time with our families and watching movies.
