If you were at the benefit, you probably also noticed that parts of this post did not come to fruition - there were some technical difficulties with Mat's balloons, so he wasn't able to fly them during Mountainhood's set. And the guides were actually being sold for $3 (production cost). BUT if you are in the New York area I'm sure Mat would be more than happy to give you a tutorial, and cut you free plastic...right now's he's in California recording the sound of the Pacific Coast from the air (using balloons), but he'll be back...I'll forward your message to him if that's ok! - Camilla Hi!
