PERFORMANCE ART
Tom Miller will be performing a piece called, "Deciding the Eagles". Mr. Miller will endure six solid hours of every studio album ever recorded by The Eagles, and at the conclusion of this event, will decide for America once and for all whether or not the Eagles suck, or are great. Inspired by Donald Trump, Miller believes he is the only one who can decide for America and solve this problem for the following reasons: 1. He is a Gainesville resident and the founding member Don Felder was also born in Gainesville. 2. Tom Miller is an experienced audio engineer and musician with over 30 years of experience in deciding whether music sucks or not. 3. Tom Miller is the only person in the world willing to listen to every studio album by the Eagles, one after another, until the job is completed.
Says Tom, "I have seen no evidence on Google that anyone has attempted to listen to every studio album by the Eagles and it's time somebody did it for the good of the country. We can't have people fighting over the Eagles any more. We need a decision, and only I can make it. Our country will finally take it easy, and not be so desperado!" (Coming November of 2016).
Tom Miller is currently in rehearsal for the one man show, Thom Pain (Based on Nothing) by Will Eno, set to begin live performances in December of 2016.
