"The band is based in Boston, we all live near and around here; we travel as far north as Rockland in Maine, as far south as Miami and we've been as far west as House Of Blues in Cleveland. We couch surf, so we are a lean, mean, fighting machine; we can play somewhere and then stay with fans and friends and then move on to the next town and live in a van on pizza," laughed Conrad Warre of Bees Deluxe as h talked of their upcoming area gigs at The Lizzie Rose Music Room in Tuckerton, NJ, The Cutting Room in NYC and Jamey's House of Music in Lansdowne, PA.

"She's Like the Wind"

The first thing you'll see upon entering the gallery at Deep Space (77 Cornelison St.) is the shadow-outline of a woman's leg. There it is, on a chartreuse background, sticking straight up in the air with a curvaceous bare foot inches from the ceiling. That's all of the subject of "Lemon Lime Toe of God" that the oil painter Delilah Ray Miske is willing to show us. The rest of the body, she implies, is splayed out on a bed. We know it's summer because the window is closed and the air conditioner is plugged in. There's a pretty good chance that the possessor of the leg is undressed. In one hand, she holds a cellphone, and she might be broadcasting something. On the wall, a small whip-like broomstick hangs. It could be the ride of a tiny witch. It could be the professional tool of a dominatrix.
