Before the evening plays at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival there has been a long tradition of a free Green Show. Today’s picture is from the Green Show a couple nights back.

Until last year, a group of dancers performed in front of live music nightly. Beginning last year the dancers are gone and every night is something different. The dancers were consistently good. Now you never know what you will get. Sometimes great, sometimes good, sometimes not so good. The starting time for the OSF Green Show is 7:15 after Memorial Day until mid-August. From mid-August until early October the Green Show starts at 6:45. If you want a good seat you should arrive at least 20 minutes early.

Here is a schedule of this year’s OSF Green Show performances.

Here is another Floater picture for you. And below is an HD video I took on my LX3 at the show. I forgot to follow my own advice and zoom before starting the video, but given my state of mind at the time it’s amazing that I remembered to take any pictures or a video.

The above video is Floater performing “Ghost in the Making” off of their Stone by Stone CD. This live performance at the Rogue Theatre in Grants Pass, Oregon on May 29, 2009 features an extended jam beginning at about minute 5 in this video.

I experienced Floater for the second time on May 29, 2009 at the Rogue Theatre in Grants Pass, a little over an hour to the northwest of Ashland.

The first time I saw them was November of 2008 at the same venue.

Tomorrow I’ll have another photo from the show as well as a video taken on my LX3.

I’m looking forward to hearing Taiko drums on Japanese soil in a few months. This was the next best thing to being there.
