FIRST IMPRESSIONS

NY GHTFAL C ON

magine if you will, the main-street-shoot-out in the

black and white version of a Spaghetti Western. The

Isun is high. The wind blows hot and dry. The camera,

at ground level, pans slowly upward over the worn boots past

the hem and wind-tortured movement of the wrinkled duster

past the fingers tensed above the pistol grip to a face shrouded

in the shadow of the low-brimmed hat. Music in the style of

Ennio Morricone. Now, transfer this scene to the tradeshow-

transformed interior of a posh Las Vegas hotel. My first

impressions of NyghtFalcon were not far from what I’ve

described. Except what I saw coming toward me was as far as

you could get from Western. It was Goth.
