MICHAEL MUSIKA'S CHRONOLOGICAL DOCUMENTATION OF CREATION THROUGH WRITING, PHOTOGRAPHY, AND PERFORMANCE ON VIDEO.

MAY 24, 2000 // THE FIRST SHOW AT SIMPLE PLEASURES CAFE

SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA

Nobu, Stephanie, the English People, and Mulrooney were in attendance. I was very ambitious and self important about it. I recorded the show on a four track tape machine. I brought furniture from my house and a children's book.  I played the harmonica too loud and too long. People are so generous and forgiving.  If only I were the same, I wouldn't feel so embarrassed about my behavior, nor so guilty about receiving unconditional love. That's true from my present perspective. Also, at the time, the night seemed like a success, and fun.
