So I managed to make most of my must-catch exhibits, and waiting till after 1 to go out helped, but I really should have just waited till after last call. This was the first time I did “Zone A” and while it would be easy to complain about all the idiots/jerks/whathaveyou out for the night, basically getting blasted, yelling at the top of their lungs and making fun of projects, I decided to stay positive and enjoyed myself, without getting too mushed in human traffic along the way. Here’s a few of my photos of the exhibits I saw.
Wasted Breath: Awesome. I don’t think those who were wandering by noticed they were moving.
No: Yes.
Bay street midway: Popular, probably because it was a ride. The Seven Eleven nearby also had quite the draw.
Monopoly with real money: Nice, concept, but hard to watch for more than 5 minutes.
Lights at city hall: Probably the biggest and best of the night.
Big inflated silver bunny: Hopefully less of this next year.
Steel cage match at the bus terminal: Nice setup, lame wrestling.
Random band in the atrium: Noise, but a welcome break.
Massey Hall: Wonderful, but it must be so tiring for the performers.
The moon: Perfection.
Mercy and sausage: Wonderful way to end the evening out in Liberty village.
After getting home around 7 and sleeping to noon, I’m feeling pretty off, but overall it was a great night, and I’m looking forward to next year! If you want to weigh in with what you saw, leave a comment!
I got to the bus terminal at a time when they had real wrestlers in the cage, which was actually pretty fun to watch. Once the audience participation part started it got pretty lame though.
I liked the bunny – I thought it was chrome-like = fancy like and cheap dollar store bunny = cheap. A funny comment on consumerism?
For some reason I heard that they were going to do a pretty violent royale in the steel cage later on… I bet if I saw the “pros” then I would have liked it more for sure. I heard that when they had 2 women going at it in the cage things perked up.
As for the bunny, I get that… I wonder how far you can interpret something like that. At what point is a big inflated silver bunny just a big inflated silver bunny, you know?
Great album Tyrone…i missed alot of it so this is great! Thanks :)
Thanks for the quick tour, I missed it this year.
love the summary, the pics almost make me feel like i was there. i look forward to hopefully going next year! it must have been amazing to be on the stage at massy hall, what a cool experience!
