The Performance: Immerse your senses in an electrifying video show projection accompanying a live performance of songs by The Doors ("Light My Fire"), The Byrds ("Mr. Tambourine Man"), Iron Butterfly, ("In-a-Gadda-da-Vida"), Jefferson Airplane ("White Rabbit"), Procol Harum ("A Whiter Shade of Pale"), Cream ("Sunshine of Your Love"), The Zombies ("Time of the Season"), Steppenwolf ("Born to be Wild") and Janis Joplin. ("Piece of My Heart").The Light Show: In the late 60s and early 70s, our lighting designer, Nautilus Music Theater's Ben Krywosz, created, designed and operated shows for many national groups at Fillmore West and other Bay area venues in San Francisco, among the musical highlights, BLUE CHEER and IT’S A BEAUTIFUL DAY. He also provided lighting for productions of TOMMY and JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR. The light show itself is a highlight of this experience, "conjuring up swiftly changing kaleidoscopic images that ebb and flow with the music"
Behind the Scenes: Magic Carpet Ride was conceived by Gary Rue and created in collaboration with lighting designer Ben Krywosz to bring audiences back to the days when Bay area musicians were making an impact on the social fabric of our country. The exacting musicianship of the band is supercharged by the light show itself, what critics have called ‘the 6th member of the ensemble’.
