The Guggenheim Rotunda
Last night we had the pleasure of playing at The Guggenheim Museum Main Rotunda for the staff’s holiday party. It was a great experience on many levels. The environment (obviously) the folks we met, and even the sound equipment rental company all worked together to Read More …
