'Well, obviously playing at GoMA was the highlight for me. . . I also
attended other Up Lates and I think the highlight was really just
the overall experience of having a band play amidst the Warhol pieces
and the opportunity to visit such a beautiful space in the evening . . .
I also love the excitement and enthusiasm that the program
engendered amongst Brisbane residents. . . I think it's one of
the most exciting and successful initiatives that the Brisbane arts/
music community . . . has ever seen (in my time at least !)'.
Visitor and performer, Andy Warhol Up Late.

'My visit brought back memories of visits to the Guggenheim and
MoMA in NYC & also the MoMA in San Francisco. Architecturally,
the building is a real winner . . . Brisbane just gets better
& better thanks in large part to the artistic offerings . . .
I look forward to the Picasso showing in June.'
