Rick Bockner, Immanuel McKenty and I have spent a year and a half working on this. Rick and I spent 18 months looking at over 30 hours of Lip Sync that Immanuel digitalised for us. We selected 16 acts and 7 mc bits for a usb video of Highlights of Lip Sync. It was a constant reminder of how great the shows were and what a special thing they were. We did 23 shows in 11 years It provided an outlet for the island’s performers that is now missing.

Something, a variety show or a big theatre event needs to take the ip Sync’s place.

We will be showing the video at the Mansons hall on June 6th. Doors at 7 show at 7:30 though we may be a little later to allow folks to go to the art gallery and still see the show. We will be selling usb sticks of the show for $20.00. Of course, this is a fundraiser for Cortes Radio.

One of the purposes of doing this work is that I intend to make a derive for the museum of everything I have of Lip Syncs, all the videos, this stick photos and posters that I have. The shows were historical and need to be saved.
