It's what we used to do in LA to keep up with that community. (We built ISPs.)
The meetings are usually held in trainstations by the phones.
Now, there's a group, with some wild ideas about right and wrong.
Actually talking about the feds. I used to do some network work for a record
label called Death Row. One of their artists (Tupac) were gunned down in
Vegas. Shortly there after I was in their newly aquired building setting
things up.
All the body guards were armed and their office was behind a big electric
gate. On the third floor was an electric chair in the hallway and a big tank
with piranha fish. The president was in the slammer accused of murder.
Arriving there you were certain that the feds had set up cameras in the
buildings across the street, taking pictures of everyone entering and
leaving.
One of the guards had something wrong with him. He was all yellow and lokced
like he could keel over and die right there. Needless to say they were all
blacks.
These guys had actually grown too big for the competition. They were not
supposed to become That successful. All the black artists were signing up
with them. So who knows how that might have added to the confusion.
I had Aaron Spelling as a customer too. We wired him up with OC-12 cross
country while his studio was shooting the tv series Savannah on location. He
could sit in his Beverly Hills office and see the dailies live. (That's the
daily scenes that were shot during the day.)
Well that was quite a thread just from thinking of 2600...
