To stimulate their creativity when selecting themes for the show to guide our music selection the Eclectic Avenue team have embraced Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt's Oblique Strategies (subtitled Over One Hundred Worthwhile Dilemmas). Using this card-based method has led Bernie, Sandy and Michael to mine their creativity and lateral thinking prowess to find music that captures the oblique strategy of Simple Subtraction - and what a wonderful show it is.
At the end of this show we randomly chose a card to select the oblique strategy for our next show: Use Unqualified People.
