Nick this is such a cool thing you're doing not only for artists of this or future events. By throwing these shindigs on Shelter Island a host of landmarks stand to financially benefit.

I can think of a half dozen vintage hotels to stay at for folks from out of town. They can pack their pedal pushers and rent a bike or scooter instead of a car ... zip over to Trader Morts for in room supplies, soak up the sun poolside at the Half Moon, sunset pupus and hi-octails at the Bali Hai and diner at the Tahiti! Keeping these places thriving BECAUSE of their thematic consistency will help spare them the fate of another local gem now merely a ghost of it's former self.

By 2008 historic Tiki in San Diego will be making its last stand on Shelter Island and I'm glad you're among those who realise the importance of producing regular exhibitions or performances there.

The same sincere enthusiasm from you that makes your mag legit will make your events best not missed.
