Loading...The Vortex Navigation Company, Sean Connaughty and Jason Kesselring (aka Comets Ov Cupid) improvising. Video is Sean's dog Abby in her pool. 7/2011 Here is a transcription of the lyrics: At the close of day you walked away All you had to do was say you were sorry I know you mean it too From the night wind we find ourselves out in the zone A witness to something so strange it belies imagination A story so grotesque and bold Gonna be sure to really get ya going Try to picture the joy on the boy at the boat Instead of writing my friends; "That's all she wrote" Where ya going baby? A ride on the wings of the rippling tide? What does it matter who promised and who lied Everything is going to arrive on time at the park The night will be long, it's the longest night for the dark But you can make it beneath the stones up on the hill Make yourself a fire and see what you can kil

Skyspace Headphone Concert
Headphone festivals emerged as an alternative performance environment for electronic musicians in response to noise regulations placed on live music venues throughout Europe. The Headphone Concert for Nightshift places this unique concert model inside the confines of the James Turrell Sky Pesher on the Walker Greenspace. Local musicians will perform live compositions through a series of headphone jacks and amps. The audience will be invited to sit around the performers on the Skyspace benches, plug-in their headphones and enjoy the show under the night sky. The program merges a collective concert experience with the intimate listening experience of headphones.
Performers include:

Midnight – Caly McMorrow http://www.calymcmorrow.com/

Alternate Take on Comets Ov Cupid Solo Acoustic piece "The Flight Ov Simon Magus"
Comets Ov Cupid "Western Lands" CD Available
“The Western Lands emerge as would a figure walking out of the horizon, not there, then there, something which might never be if I was not present to witness it. Invisible they are like an echo, and so it is that the Western Lands appear, not so much as a location but as an event, a mark in time, a frozen moment, a coming to a point of perfect stillness before action.”- Roger Williamson author/ artist/occultist “Western Lands” is the first full length album by Comets Ov Cupid, a space rock project by Jason Kesselring (formerly of Skye Klad and The Satyrswitch.) A darkly cosmic album that evokes a sense of eternal twilight-creating a sonic landscape filled with ghostly lights, distorted voices, cosmic pulse, and a hazy drone of some far away approach. “Western Lands” was created in concept to be a total listening experience and is best played from begining to end. The package and design of the cd are extentions of this sensibility and serve as a doorway to your experience. The outer sleeve is carefully cut and folded by hand with a screen printed design that slowly reveals the contents contained. The inner sleeve features liner notes and painting by artist/writer/ occultist Roger Williamson. The CD also features the same painting by Roger Williamson. $13

An outake from the Comets Ov Cupid "Western Lands" album. Didn't really fit into the flow of the album but has a certain charm on its own. I play all instruments (guitar, bass, synth, drum loops, pow wow drums, and electric tamboura) recorded outside during the Summer at my Studio in the Sheyenne Valley.. Kindred, North Dakota.
