The First Chiasm Show Ever
October 1998: The Labyrinth : Detroit, MI
CHIASM w/ KEVORKIAN DEATH CYCLE
The very first Chiasm show ever was at the Labyrinth in Detroit in 1998.
It was a Tuesday, but I was opening for the awesome band, Kevorkian Death Cycle.
My demo album, "Embryonic", was finally ready for release, and with it's original black and white cover, I had several copies ready for distribution. Although the audience was very sparse, several friends and fellow musicians came out to support my night, and I was happy to be on stage again with my new project (following my pre-Chiasm project "Electrophoretic Transfer", which had last played nearly 9 months earlier). I remember the members of KDC really enjoyed my stage video, which so happened to include some footage of Dr. Kevorkian's televised assisted suicide. This was also the first and only time Chiasm has performed with a live drummer..I think the venue scared him away and he was never seen again.. Anyhow, I had a great night and was just really excited to have my music heard.

Just stumbled upon this... don't know if you still check this page... looks more than a little dated.
I was the roadie/tech for KDC at that show(Finished the tour as Guitarist, but that's another story)
Was cool to see this after all these years, that Detroit show was weird, tiny crowd, venue was not at the location we had the address for. We arrived way early, parked the van and wandered Detroit on foot looking for the venue. 5 freaky looking white guys, from southern California, wandering Detroit... that was, uh... "fun".
But, it means it's one of the shows I have some very distinct memories of, so it was cool to see this post and think back on it.
