Next Winter

Next Winter when it's raining, snowing, gray and depressing, ya'll should get on a jet plane and make your way to Patagonia, Chile, and ride some bicycles:

Roots of Orchis and The Cyclocross Meeting

This past Sunday Roots of Orchis reunited to play a show before my San Francisco screening of The Cyclocross Meeting. While they played I projected some uncut Super 8 reels I shot in Providence, RI, and Belgium, back in 05'/06'. Roots...did a large portion of the soundtrack, and even though they aren't playing together regularly, they released a final album and it can be downloaded HERE. This was all part of the Bicycle Film Festival, which is jamming through it's 10th successful year.
