We are considering changing our name to something involving rain dancing, since rainstorms during Magpu shows seem to have become a regular occurrence. Monday’s show at Club Dada featured bright flashes of lightning, as well as power outages within the club and up and down Elm Street. Power continued flowing to the stage and the mixing console for most of the evening, however. Late in the evening, after a half-hour jam that included an impromptu approximation of “Dark Star” by the Grateful Dead, the entire club lost power, bringing the show to an abrupt halt. After all, it’s hard to play electric trance-fusion without electricity. This performance marked the first live appearance of the Magpu quintet, with the addition of Cliff on MalletKAT. It was also the first live Internet broadcast of Magpu, though the storm caused some problems with the transmission.
