My Pieces

• The Rant, Part I (I sit and rant; remaining players wander behind me with obnoxious signage until I end.)
• The Rant, Part II (I sit and rant; players come in front of me to string three strands of wire/twine, hang Propaganda Remix, Fox News, and trash pop culture posters, eventually blocking me from view.)

I want guitars and (later) a choral wall-of-sound.
