Nylon Guy photos from December 1, 2012 at the Rock Lottery! at the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn, NY are now online. View them here or on Flickr.
The Rock Lottery premise is simple, but effective. Twenty-five hand picked musicians meet at 10:00 AM at the evenings performance venue. These volunteers are organized into five groups through a lottery-based chance selection. The five separate groups are then released to practice at different locations. The musicians have twelve hours to create a band name and three to five songs (with a one cover-song limit). The groups will then perform what they have created that evening in front of a waiting audience.
Nylon Guy was comprised of Tyler Villard of Bezoar, Ian Young of M83, George Langford of Javelin, Jen Goma of People Get Ready and Sunny Day In Glasgow and Dave Sheinkopf of The Subjects.
