Ogre: I think there is always kind of a similar art to Skinny Puppy tours. There is a theatrical element and a visual element. We are pushing our visual thing, so we are doing a full stage immersion, visually and with how were going to use lighting. Thematically, the show is kind of touching on both the alienation and kind of faceless black void that is racism in this country. We are kind of touching on that a bit, to a certain degree, because I was influenced by something a few months ago. I got a bug in my head and started seeing little bits starting to creep out of the crock-pot, that showed racism in this country is a bit of a problem. But the bottom line with the show without getting to preachy, it's actually more a visual and contextual show. It has analogies based on that [racism] but overall it's more of a visual, interesting to look at show. I would call it more abstract. But as for a direct theme for the show, it certainly isn't all about racism. It kind of evolves backwards into half the reason why.
