A Skatterbox Session is a form of reconstructive art. Imagine a collection of pristine albums, movies, and stand up comedy routines preserved perfectly in stained glass. Put those into a box. Shake the shit out of the box until everything is broken into a gazillon pieces, then dump out the contents and decorate the box with the broken pieces to form something unique. That is what you will experience here. As always, the Alchemist asks you to please enjoy responsibility.

Hello fellow Alchemists and Confluxians: My apologies for the delay in posting this blog. Life has been a bit hectic. Missed a week after this show and am just now getting around to posting a blog, although I did put the show up a couple weeks back for the podcast.
This show is a trip to a dive bar on the dusty edge of nowhere. More of a feeling than a place….you know the feeling; you know the place.
Sit back and let the darkness envelope you as you drift into a dangerous place where strangers are sizing you up for a good way to use you, but not before you use them first.
