Zanstones + Bodycocktail + Masters of the Ungentlemanly Art live Iberian tour 2008
Late 2008 MotUA played the 1st shows outside USA in Madrid, Vigo & A Coruna, Spain. Bodycocktail did solo live shows in Vigo, A Coruna, Ferrol, Cordoba and Madrid in Spain & Coimbra, Porto and Barcelos in Portugal. Zanstones played three solo shows (Coimbra, Porto and Madrid) and two collaborations with En Busca Del Pasto in Madrid.

Now this was fun.Pasto was: Roberto Rodrigo
Pablo Delgado de Torres
Araguaneyleaf
Ricardo Sanz
Christian Fernandez Mirón
Bodycocktail at Harold's farmhouse in Barcelos
Delicious food and drink (hand squeezed OJ, the strangest great glass I've had) and one cd was sold for 5 euro so this was the best of three shows moneywise in Portugal. The Bodycocktail set was so popular a third of it was performed twice by demand.

Zanstones live at Casa Viva in Porto
A short Zanstones set (batteries die after 12 minutes) is followed by a lovely mini Bodycocktail show which was just enough to inspire Mario to kidnap me to play a show the next day in his hometown of Barcelos, not far away.

11.23.08 a short Bodycocktail set with wandering melodica ended the evening at this very mellow show.

The Snakes Hip for A Coruña 
The Snakes Hip was composed in and presented live for A Coruña on 11.21.2008 before a most enthusiastic crowd. Never has the tax form of 1957 been so popular! A wild Bodycocktail show erupted before the MotUA set.

The Eels Ankle for Vigo
Composed and presented live at a Cova dos Ratos in Vigo, Spain on 11-20-2008. Also a small unannouced impropmtu Bodycocktail set was performed that evening. The only drawback was the sound system was not great.

dnasnow/mouseup + Bodycocktail + Zanstones live tour of Spain winter 2007
Carol and I went to Spain as I met up for a 7th year reunion with Rinus Van Albeek to do a dnasnow/mouseup tour plus some solo shows alternately as Bodycocktail and Zanstones. Here are links for some live videos and pictures of friends.
dnasnow/mouseup in Madrid November 30th, 2007 Spain
Powerfully loud and lively show to a sold out group in Madrid. This was our first performance on our tour and the last time we'd played together had been six years ago.
dnasnow/mouseup at the museum of artistic reproductions, Bilbao, December 1st, Spain
A funny, sparsely attended and often powerfully noisy show at a seriously clean museum of artistic Greek and Roman reproductions. Megaphone was useful in this cavernous space. The sound spilled out into the streets and both the workers across the way and people wandering by were amused and perplexed. Rinus taped a padded mailing envelope on the winged victory of samothrace behind the stage.
Bodycocktail in Gexto Arte (Bilbao), December 1st, Spain
This was the funniest and most enjoyable show. Miguel A. Garcia found us a slot at a young artist show booth at a large tent show called Gexto Arte. The Bodycocktail-4 dancers all had surprise masks with my faces on them.
Zanstones Donestaiko Zuloak, San Sebastion, December 2nd, Spain
I recorded holes in various places in Donesti/San Sebastion from the boardwalk by the sea to the park across the street from the venue where I attracted a set of "little fans", boys playing in that area.
I carved a hole in a piece of black foamcore which I used to bow, look through, stick my ear or nose through, etc.
dnasnow/mouseup at Mogambo in Donesti/San Sebastion, December 2nd, Spain
It was not at all what we had intended as we had set up an entire table with our equipment on in & proceeded to ingore that equipment and instead I was in the audience walking circles and vocalizing with a megaphone and walkie-talkie and Rinus had a shoebox tapedeck with a microphone and was being a wizard of sound and noise. The show was in 2 parts, the second in the dark.
dnasnow/mouseup at octobre in Valencia, December 5th, Spain
This was our most intersting, complex and lengthy show - clocking in around 80 minutes. Thanks to Ruben for the great venue and fine accomodations.
Bodycocktail live in Madrid, December 7th, Spain
I had fun and sang my songs which played until 15 or 20 minutes then inexplicably stopped. So I switched to the Bilbao set and had the same situation. The backing cd sounded like someone was chewing granola cereal on top of it & my microphone cord was hillariously short & this along with my fancy jacket made someone comment that I looked like a flamenco singer.
