...words that the voice of a bodiless German guard repeats to Max and Horst—remain projected onto a black screen elevated above the back of the stage. This phrase and its staging are a fitting choice for a scene in which the two characters bare themselves psychologically, both to the audience and to each other...
...minute drive from Chiang Mai, Proud Phu Fah doesn't attract young urbanites so much as families and others looking for a quiet puff of Thai mountain air. Yet that's not to say that the hotel lacks contemporary style.

"The people's only weapons are their hands," said an elderly teacher watching the procession...
...period Phish records. Much of the rest of the album just feels busy, like a first-time user tinkering with Garage Band, layering effects until the subtlety of the song’s skeleton is lost. What work best on the album are, as usual, the moments that capture bare-bones Beam. “Lovesong of the Buzzard” wisps along on an upbeat percussion line, with effects reminiscent of “Highway 61 Revisited” rising in and out of its shadows. “Resurrection Fern” is gorgeous, glimmering like a moonlit...
