Did you choose a particular set of artists and bands to capture, or do you just pick and choose in a more spontaneous way?

It was very spontaneous. I left it open, because I knew there’d be a lot of time between who I invited and when I was working. There was a mix of both. I had to invite people so they could schedule a trip to Vegas, so what I did was, I sent out invitations personally to a bunch of people. It’s always like this - you invite people, and the people you least expect to come, come. It’s really funny - it was a really lovely surprise for me, and we ended up having The Men kick off the opening, which was incredible. They’re just coming through on tour, and I've known them for a while now. In fact, the singer was in a band I played with before - they only had 30 minutes before their sound check before a gig in Vegas, and they ended up staying for three hours. The sound was incredible and they were inspired, so they just lit it up. They were playing things they didn't even have finished. They’re incredible.
