Tech Notes "I don’t think Eluvium will ever get the sort of attention he deserves at a concert. I fear that he’ll never be a headlining act and that he’ll always be placed as an opening act at a concert where people want to talk, drink, be merry and not pay attention to the beautiful music he’s making. All throughout his set people chatted with their friends instead of listening to the beautiful music he was creating, though, a lot of people shut their noiseholes during the crescendo of “Under The Water It Glowed” because it’s hard not to appreciate how gorgeous that song is.

I loved that he took the stage and did not say a word. He sat up there at his piano and waited for the soundguy to kill the house music, then he just started playing. Between songs he didn’t say anything and I don’t think he even had a microphone. When he finished his last song he just looked up, smiled and waved his hand as if to say “Thanks for listening. Bye.”

During Mono’s set, he walked by my stand, pointed to the mics and smiled at me. I told him “I’ll send you a copy.” and he touched my shoulder lightly and did a scooping head nod (you know, where your head just kind of swoops down with your shoulders). He said “Thanks.” I half expected him to add “…my son” after. He’s just so humble and meak and unassuming and I would pay to see him play everyday of my life if I could."
