Your website gives the wrong impression of our performance at the Traverse City Film Festival so I wanted to drop a note to clarify. The Bijou Orchestra wasn't commissioned to create an accompaniment of "Metropolis." We performed the original score to the film in its salon orchestration for what appears to have only been the second time in the United States although the score dates back to 1926. We were thrilled to have been invited to perform at the Traverse City Film Festival and we have talked about future projects.

But Internet providers like AT&T, Verizon and Comcast are spending millions of dollars lobbying Congress to gut Net Neutrality. If Congress doesn\'t take action now to implement meaningful Net Neutrality provisions, the future of the Internet is at risk. In the end game, only large companies will afford domains if the communications monopolies have their way with this. This of course isnt new news, but its coming to a head and blogs like this one will be a ghosttown unless all of us figure it our pretty darn quick. I wont post any links, but advise that if you value the internet, and blogs likw this one, that you search Google for \"Network Neutrality\" and educate yourself on this issue as it effects all of us.

At 10:00 pm. I saw O Lucky Malcolm a really fine documentary about Malcolm McDowell. We waited for Michael to come from cancelling the outdoor screening of Jurasic Park. He came in soaked for the introduction of director/producer Jan Harlan and Malcolm McDowell. Malcolm bounded on to the stage at Old Town Playhouse exclaiming he came because he would do anything for Michael Moore. He feels that the questions that Michael asks in his films were not being asked. The Q & A after the film was a treat. This program may be my favorite of the Festival which no doubt holds further gems.
