The Whole 9 represented this past Saturday. Artists from TW9 included Bob Kent, Phil Santos, CK Walker and Brian Nieman. Cannibalflower founder and driving force, LC remarked, ” “I thought it was a great show, the space was amazing. It was really warm.”
really ”warm” if you’re breaking
LC also commented about the number of people in attendance saying, ” Sometimes is a little sad that more people don’t show up. It’s like an amazing sand castle – it’s here today, and gone tomorrow. And when you miss these shows, you really miss these shows, because each show is it’s own unique experience. And it’s inexpensive.”
