DECEMBER '09: "metablues, microtones, contraptions, utopia"
 $5-10, no one turned away for lack of funds.
A concert featuring responses to invitations:  ODDMUSIC - What is Oddmusic?
Show us. 1. METABLUES - Write a "blues" song which points, instead of at old
problems framed in the old language, new problems which demand a new
language. 2. MICROTONES - Write a piece in an odd tuning (one which is
non-redundant with conventional wisdom). 3. CONTRAPTIONS - Write a piece for
an odd instrument (or a not-so-odd instrument played in an odd way). 4.
UTOPIA - Write a piece which speaks of alternatives not yet possible in the
current system. For example, a false statement bulletin.
