HEY, KIDS!
If you've already shuddered
to the terrifying tale told within our HISTORY
page, you already know the sordid story behind our very first gig --
indeed, the reason the Delusionaires formed in the first place. This
sultry serenade ran amok at Tampa's luxurious USF
Contemporary Art Museum, drawing the curtain on the celebrated (and
reviled, in some circles) ULTRA
LOUNGE exhibit. With a gaggle of tipsy dancing gals and special
guest emcee A.W. Stencell (author of the incredible history
GIRL
SHOW), it was a night to remember indeed (Shannon -- my number's in
the book!). Below lurks the link to the live webcast of that traumatic,
titillating triumph, courtesy of the fine folks at Tampa's WEEKLY PLANET.
The stream covers the entire three-and-a-half hours of the evening, so
yer gonna have to fast forward an hour & a half or so to dig the racket...
and I gotta warn ya, the magician's routine remains in all its... um...
never mind. Yer gonna need the Windows
Media Player to dig the scene (sorry, Mac daddies -- though apparently
a Media Player for Macs exists in Beta form out there and works with varying
success); click on the link below to download the latest version.
Once it's all set up, snap at the link below
for a glorified slide show with hours of sounds both sublime and sucktacular.

Final Exhibition - Thursday, February 24th, 8-11pm *Sponsored by The Weekly Planet
Ultralounge is curated by Las Vegas-based culture critic Dave Hickey. Twelve artists reclaim the exhibition space of the museum as a "social space" where people enjoy spending time together. The iconography of the reclamation is derived from post-hip-hop lounge culture with its infrastructure in raves, clubs, bands, websites and 'zines and its affection for the noir radiance of social space in Las Vegas and Los Angeles.
Participating artists include:
Phil Argent, Aaron Baker, Tim Bavington, Jane Callister, Cynthia Chan, Jack
Hallberg, Wayne Littlejohn, Christine Siemens, Jennifer Steinkamp, Mary Warner,
Yek and special guest star Jim Isermann.
