The Plea Dreamers Stadium
We did these two images for the Plea’s album the Dreamer’s Stadium. As much as I enjoy the orbs of knowledge carried from the depths of the tunnel/ignorance by the schoolboys, I prefer the guitars on trees. This is derived from an image we did of books tied to trees, as an homage to where the books originally came from. This image was in honour of Bob Dylan but of course his manager didn’t like it. This variant had guitars – the icon of rock and roll – strat and les paul’s tied to trees in the sunny pinewood.

I personally, without qualm or egocentricity (heh heh), really appreciate this picture. I think it is spiritually appropriate, pretty and an interesting dialectically. Also, it possesses, at least in my mind, a ritualistic quality – this
extallation is performed as a real event in a pinewood in Tokai near Cape
Town.
