      It was and I went in knowing nothing about Sun Ra. My hippie buddy was less than impressed with Sonic Youth so we dipped halfway through. SY isn’t that great outside and Sun Ra was remarkable.

        I’ve seen the Arkestra several times with Marshal Allen but I never got to see the man himself.

        Ha, yeah I could see SY not translating to an outdoor performance.

          The only other time I saw parts of the Arkestra was when Trey Anastasio closed the Academy and some of the band playing that night were in the Arkestra.
