SubjectBig oil tank (was:Re: Sparks)
Here in Tenerife (an island to the NW of Africa) we have a oil tank that
was donated by the oil company to the government. It has 50 meters of
diameter and a reverb time of 17 seconds. It is being used as a place to
present contemporary stuff. Last time I was there a man with a tuba was
doing nice polyphony (there were 7 dancers also).
For those interested take a Delta Airlines 350$ flight to Madrid from New
York. Stay there a day or two to see El Prado Museum and then come to
Tenerife. I´ll be in the airport to pick you up ;)

P.S. Seriously, if anyone has a good idea for this tank I can provide the
name and address for the person in charge of this wonder.
