MARC MONTEBELLO PORTFOLIO INSTAGRAM THREADS

Jan 1, 2013  •  homeland security

it's been precisely one year since my run-in with china's 'public security bureau', who deemed exposure to music in public, performed by westerners anyway, an absolute offence and declared my bandmates and i a nuisance to this harmonious society (more on that here). it has also been nearly as long for kitty and i to obtain the endlessly elusive canadian immigration documents necessary to act on my original thoughts of a china departure (then imagined to be a matter of only a few months.. my, did i underestimate canada's immigration process, or rather, the lack of a humane one). but i digress. it's a new year and one that i'm happy to announce will be spent mainly in canadian pastures where the air is clean(er) and the snow blows hell-high, much higher than here anyway. mind you, i wouldn't want to be lugging a dozen water jugs or a bag full of mail through this stuff.
bonne année tout le monde!
