Fri, 27 Oct 2006 19:14:18 GMT

Hello all. I was wondering if any of you have been to the Rainbow Gatherings?? I'm really interested in going this summer and would love to hear some feedback. I've heard scary stories about the police arresting people and wanted to know your experiences. Peace.

Alternative Night @ Indigo this Thursday 10/19

Gabriel — Tue, 17 Oct 2006 00:58:44 GMT

Have I posted this everywhere yet? haha

Hi everyone: Gabe here, ( DJ GERBER ).

( I DJ now & again with Deep Groove Society @ Humbrews on Sunday nights )

Did you know there's an Alternative Lifestyles Night @ INDIGO?

I didn't know until today....when I was approached to play dance music there THIS week.

THURSDAY NIGHT

OCTOBER 19th

Here's the deal: I'm pretty much promised a regular gig there, assuming Thursdays draw a crowd.

This sounds great, because I pretty much attribute my becoming a DJ after falling in love with dance music in the heyday of the old Club Triangle back in the mid 90's. To get that same venue rocking again would be a joy to see.

Not to mention, I'm anxious to get a proverbial foot in the door at Indigo for some of the other DJs in the area to guest spot!

Think about it:

Red, Touch, Boogie, JSUN, Jan, Blanca, Dub, and more.....

It could be, as they say, "Off the hizee " hahaha

I know there are varying opinions out there about Indigo, some good, some bad.
I personally don't like the "booty" nights there, but that's simply because I
dislike a majority of the clientel that those nights attract. ( i.e. posers )

What it all comes down to is: The Music, and The People.

Forget what the venue is. It's just a room with speakers. We provide the fun.

So, who's with us?

THIS THURSDAY NIGHT

OCTOBER 19th

eyeballho — Mon, 18 Sep 2006 04:34:34 GMT

get a building without neighbors--standalone. visit the area at night to see if people made lofts in industrial areas near your space. heavy bass will carry at least 1/2 block or more, and longstanding loft types won't take losing sleep, etc. and you'll have pd on you.

brick and drywall will hold sound better than metal or wood. the less windows the better, but they can be insulated.

SHOW Tonight!! Benefit for RAVEN Project.

blanca — Fri, 12 May 2006 01:26:56 GMT

For those that don't know the RAVEN Project is a non-profit organization based out of Eureka that provides services for homeless youth in our community. They have a house where they have free clothes (if you ever feel like donating some holla at me, they always need more), weekly gathering nights like Queer Coffee house, Girl Space and Art Space. NOT TO MENTION that they put on workshops to teach youth about healthy choices, and so on. THEY ALSO do a lot of street outreach passing out contraceptives, bleach kits (for needle users), clean socks, toothbrushes, and so on. THEY ROCK AND NEED LOTS OF SUPPORT.
So i'm reposting this for them.

Hey y'all,
The RAVEN Project is having a benifit show tonight in Mckinlyville at 6 Rivers Brewrey.

Spread the word and let people know Bucky Walters and Chapter Two are playing some awesome bluegrass tonight.

The show starts at 9pm and is $5( i think) and 21+(sorry young'uns).

And Keep your eyes peeled for an all-ages metal fabulous show in the next couple weeks, as another benifit for RAVEN. Its in the works, so i shouldn't spill thembeans yet but i promise it will be metal-rific!

And feel free to repost this!
Love and Respect,
RAVEN

Art of Business

eyeballho — Wed, 02 Mar 2005 16:47:58 GMT

(This is something I posted at another tribe)

The wheels turn slowly sometimes--the internet & places like tribe are a new kind of friendship & collaboration, and yet in some of the work I've been doing its amazing what can come out of it.

You might look at the Dance Music Culture Arcata project I have posted in Listings, also the Media Bay project. You plant the seed of your idea and anything is possible. Its impressive the quality of people you find at different tribes, and yet as people have to live and take care of their daily needs, it takes time to gather momentum.

I wanted to add a comment about money--capital. It seems like a dirty word to an artist and yet its difficult to achieve most types of creation without it, granted a writer or artist can produce with just a pencil and paper.

Having worked in a variety of arts, pursuing many of them requires some capital. The idea of capital in business (working capital) is necessary funds for the day to day expenses. While it seems contrary to the spirit of creation, its a necessary evil and one usually has to approach the business side of the arts, including marketing your work.

As one matures in an art you start to realize you have to understand and use all of the techniques of business. Maybe a purist can live in a retreat and produce like Van Gogh, maybe never selling a work, and that's OK too. Most esthetic people are probably turned off by PR hype and commercialism. We see it in television, in print media, in the music business, in the movie business, etc. How does one draw the line? Of course we try to stay true to our ideals.

There are specific business approaches to each art form, but to summarize I just want to mention a few I've noticed. If one is lucky enough to live in Canada (and some other countries) there are programs tfrom the govt to subsidize the arts. Canada, to compete with the American music "industry" will give grants to record music projects, in the hopes of opening the US monopoly up. They also require a percentage of radio play to be Canadian artists. From what I've seen their program is very generous and worth pursuing even for artists on the fringe of music.

In the US , particularly in areas supported by tourism or low in industrial businesses, one can find support in the form of business loans to arts oriented businesses. These are through what are called small business development, or economic development organizations, usually run by the local cities or county govt. They frequently work with the SBA, the federal agency that helps create new businesses.

By contacting these groups, they will give you all the information necessary to pursue such loans or grants. The downside is you usually need some basic business skills and the drive to treat your project as a business.

The positive side is that these govt types realize the value of the arts to the community and to their economic health, as they provide jobs, taxes, and promote tourism.

Is money/business good or bad? Of course there are more radical guerilla techniques to make artistic statements, and a non-materialistic person might find other avenues. Artists frequently find patrons that handle the funding, or maybe a business person to handle the business side.

How does one avoid the stigma of "business" and is there a way to reconcile the need to create art with the need to fund it?

The best athlete
wants his opponent at his best.
The best general
enters the mind of his enemy.
The best businessman
serves the communal good.
The best leader
follows the will of the people.

All of them embody
the virtue of non-competition.
Not that they don’t love to compete,
but they do it in the spirit of play.
In this they are like children
and in harmony with Tao.
