Ffej is back.
http://ffejsite.com

Defying categorization for over 20 years! Ffej is an electronic sound artist and experimental musician known for energetic, multi-media solo performances. Musically, he occupies an absurd alternate dimension somewhere between Tom Waits and Devo where Sonic Youth seeps in through the cracks. -Rendezvous

if you're too lazy to click on his site link; I'll go ahead and post what he blogged about this show:

It shouldn’t be too hard for any­one to fig­ure out why I like the Ren­dezvous.  Its a place where I get to do the kind of multi-media, song and dance, key­tar, vir­tual mod­u­lar, Able­ton Live kind of set that I love to do, and have it work to it’s full effect. [see video on his site]
I’m actu­ally not sure I’m going to end up play­ing this song but you get the idea. Pretty fun.

Michael Ray and the Plas­tic Sheets: The Plas­tic Sheets con­sist of Nic and Ger­ald of Wickt as well as a guy on drums who I don’t know per­son­ally but I’m sure he’s cool. Michael Ray is the guy, who in years long past, orches­trated the video projects for their ear­lier band, Euphondis­son. Here, he lit­er­ally struts onto the stage to front what these guys tend to call their “coun­try band”. What comes out is more like rowdy, rock­a­billy inspired punk.

Man in a Can: Frank Junk is known, of course, for being another 3rd of Tem­pered Steel. He’s respon­si­ble for craft­ing many of the Thumb Pianos we play. Like the rest of us, play­ing thumb pianos is not all that he does. It’s unknown at this time what exactly he will do, or how many home­made sound gen­er­at­ing toys will be involved. Expect it to be strange and enthralling.

"Guitarist Chris Forsyth's hypnotic compositions assimilate minimalism and psychedelia with art rock, folk, and blues influences. He has toured throughout Europe and the US, sharing stages with such like-minded artists as Träd Gräs och Stenar, Steve Gunn, Bill Orcutt, and Ignatz, and as a member of gothic junk folk expressionists Peeesseye, the group he founded in 2002 with Jaime Fennelly and Fritz Welch. He also plays in the elusive experimental project Phantom Limb & Bison and has collaborated with Meg Baird, Tetuzi Akiyama, Mike Pride, Nate Wooley, Shawn Edward Hansen, and choreographers Miguel Gutierrez and RoseAnne Spradlin, among others.
