It&#8217;s not 1.6 miles past 20th, it&#8217;s two blocks past.  Market, Leary, and 22nd Ave NW come together at a common intersection.<\/p>\n<p>Plane Sites&#8217; Mariah Reed plays sitar and guitar, Jeff Kimes plays didgeridoo, both do volcals. Also doing vocals but not pictured here was a fellow with long red dreadlocks named Liam. Baca fellow with darker shorter dreadlocks also played drums as did Liam at times.<\/p>\n<p>Before attending this performance, I couldn&#8217;t imagine how they would work together.  As it happens, incredibly well, that and African drums and some very capable vocalists and some MIDI tracks.<\/p>\n<p>The music was remarkable but as remarkable as it was, the energy of the people there really made the experience.  Nothing like this have I experienced in decades.<\/p>\n<p>If you get a chance to see Plane Site make music, do it!<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I met Elke on MySpace.
