Attention, I am an artist and I was just duped by the people at Karma Lounge on 4th street in the city. They advertise open mic night but it's just a fraud. It's bogus and they city should know that they are bogus. DO NOT GO THERE OR RESPOND TO THEM. Also, people smoke in there and it's not healthy.

O)))))))CULT

For good, reason Living Colour is very protective of image -



I understand why -

ALMOST ALL OF THEIR DIRECT LINKS VIDEOS HAVE BEEN SHUT DOWN.

No problemo, I'll help you with your demo; if you go to the store for me...

LETS HAVE A FESTIVAL...



When I was in High School I went to the first Lollapaluza festival; Saw NIN and Living Color and lots of other RANDOM groups - Jane's Addiction, Body Count (who showed up in a big tour bus with "SYNDAICATE" stamped on the back above a Raiders logo) Butthole Surfers (on stage with a shotgun) and other people.

That concert got the BIG IDEA into BIG BIZ that it was OK to have a very large concert and "Even if you throw them in the mud, they'll still pay to come".

The moral of the story - DON'T GET DUPED and at the time my good friend hated Living Colour because the "lyrics rhymed too much". Seems like DOPE rap/rock to me otherwise.......................................................................

Oppsies - forgot to mention the Don Blackman sample source list...

DON BLACKMAN & NEW FUTURE FUNK

Big thanks to the Z.A.C. for reminding me of a special place in F.U.N.K. history...



...Heavy player named Don Blackman...aka N.A.S.T.Y....Def check out his site - there's too much behind the scenes and right-in-front-of-your-face info to try to B.L.O.G. about. Flavor! - or as they say in England, "Flavore"

Also - saw this some time ago but it makes more sense to pass it off now...

MAD SISTO SCIENTIST




My friend Ben Sisto is a Mad Scientist. He has worked tirelessly on live events since he was 11 and is a way cool new media constructor. He is like a Greek philosopher who could be is a musician but sings poems of chill, who is really a nice guy, who likes to play games with life.
Ben should join the Savage Severe - I'm sure he's in, but we'll see what the fates have in store. New York chapter's starting soon, btw.
