Operation 365 - Jefferson Jay - Archives - 310 Destructo Bunny "Zendontro" 9-15-11

So from a visual perspective, this may not be the most interesting video that I've posted. From an emotional perspective, it has got to be one of the best. This one of the best moments of a truly wonderful night of music at Winston's on September 15, 2011. Destructo Bunny was really excited about the positive vibe in the room that night. Although he returned to San Diego early this year, the vibe at this show made him feel like he was finally back in Ocean Beach.

When the Bunny lived her before, he recorded a CD called "The Outta Body Experience," or "The OB Experience" for short. He had a few friends record support tracks for him including myself, Jason Burleson, and my man, Don Truesdail. Don went over James; (The Bunny's real name, James Deans) house are recorded some tracks from a tune of his called "Hemophilia." "Hemophilia" is an awesome song, Don write. James was going to do a whole hip hop remix thing on it but after Don died, he remixed in a pretty straightforward acoustic manner.

When James set started that night, I noticed he began with the intro from his "OB Experience" CD. I thought it was an interesting choice, considering, he more or less just hits play and lets it run. It set the mood nicely though and anybody who is familiar with James CD, I'm sure would recognize it. I did.

Near the end of the set, James called me up on stage. We had a nice moment, which you can see here. James then concluded his set with the version of "Hemophilia," from the end of his CD, which he titled "Zendontro." It was a wonderful feeling to hear Don's voice and Don;s music crashing through the sound system at Winston;s to an audience including many of his friends including his wife Nancy. You could tell she really appreciated. What a brilliant and poetic artistic gesture. It was terrifically appropriate with the great vibe already in the mood that night and I wanted to use this forum to share this here with you. People die, love never does. It if for friends and loved ones to carry on these legacies, particularly, when the friend is an artist.

Our friend, Dylan Avery, can be seen in the video getting all kinds of god shots of the stage. My video is filmed form my stationary camera in the back of the room. It is not as visually stimulating. The good news is, in exchange, for me hanging out with his adorable poochie, Gordo for a fortnight, he filmed and put together some really cool footage from this show. I wil taking this opportunity to share it here with you.
