A 48-HOUR PERFORMANCE BY FRANK MOORE FOR FADO'S "TIME TIME TIME" IN TORONTO, CANADA, AUGUST 27-29, 1999.

When Paul Couillard first invited Frank to perform at his festival TIME TIME TIME he told Frank that the series was inspired by Frank’s extended time performances. Frank said he would like to do a 72 hour performance for this series. This was almost two years before the performance was scheduled to happen. During that two year period Frank performed at a weeklong festival the WE FEST in Wilmington North Carolina after which he got pneumonia and was hospitalized and was very sick and had this 72 hour performance coming up in Toronto! So Frank changed it to a 48 hour performance, had Paul rent him a hospital bed and changed the name of the performance to DYING IS SEXY figuring if he died during the performance it would be on theme!
