Photo by Flutterbye8567I've been thinking about the subject of dreams and the action as well. What can I say-surreal, vital, addictive, mysterious and fascinating to rattle off a handful of adjectives. The famous poet and Taoist immortal Chuang Tzu wrote the Butterfly Dream. This is a poem where the poet questions is it himself dreaming he is a butterfly or is he in fact a butterfly dreaming he was Chuang Tzu-do you all get that? Anyhow, the Butterfly Dream together with the musical: Monk's Dream serve as the bed over which we play these songs.

Dude… this is one of those sit-in-the-dark and stare-at-the-inside-of-your-eyelids type of shows. The music rocks, and your poem intermixes a thread that just needs its own attention.
I wonder if the fact that I’m exhausted makes the poem make more – or less – sense…
MF-Says, “Sense is not made or lost only experienced.” BB-Says,”right on.”
HELLO BLUESMAN. LIKE THE NEW SITE..FAR OUT AS EVER….HOW CAN WE GET SOME MORE FRANTIC CHANT TUNES TO YA??
Crazy Stazy-the Bluesman says, Aye , bring the pain laddie-bbluesman at gmail dot com.
The staggered spoken tracks emphasise the duality of the dream. Very trippy. This is one of the best Mindfields yet.
Hugh-Thx kind words are always appreciated.
