Plea For Experiencing EtherFest Vicariously - Or Tell Us All

Um, that's disappointing... I did a search, and indeed, that's been the buzz on the net since April 1st:

gee, too bad there isn't, oh say maybe a guitar show they could debut it at?

Yes. Doesn't it seem like a bit of a slap in the face, to announce a Guitar at an International Theremin Festival?

Not at all. Moog understand that thereminists are the coolest of the cool in the whole universe of coolness, and they simply hope that some of that unparalleled coolitude will transfer itself to their product by a process of etheric osmosis in the chill of interstellar space.

Also, let's remember the point of this thread.

We need facts, photos, feelings, anecdotes and impressions.

Do tell.

Photos are now up on Flickr. Search for my user name of Panelectronica or panelectronica. The pix are out of order so please forgive me.

Frankly, Moog put this program on, the first since 2005, and if they want to do a plug for their guitar, then power to them.

They DID solicit input on the next pro level theremin, so no need to be impatient. We aren't forgotten.

Those are terrific. And I agree, "Great Photo Of Kevin Kissinger" is a great photo.

Philip, thanks for sharing! The photos are a tremendous boost to our vicarious experience of the festival.

Type kevin kissinger and you'll find Kevin's pictures on Flickr.

About every photo of me you'll see, I have this stupid grin/smile on my face.

I was THAT happy to be there.
