this saturdays show

hey so it is wedensday and we meet to put together saturdays event tonight. i can only hope it will be as productive as the first meeting for the last show. i wonder how much sobriety will come into play. anyways so we need to fill out the job chart, we need to clearly define each position in writing and get that into the computer tonight. we need to get fliers into the hands of a hype crew (another position) and we need to figure little things like when we can project and i am going to present the idea of me and Alex doing our pieces somewhere near the beginning of the show and then just having a third board for kits to to write on. also the alcohol situation needs to thought out and so on. and maybe we could even watch a little bit of the 8ths events.

PS i just started my new job today. i learned how to vent gas from a "g-tube" which entails atatching a tube and suction syringe into a little valve stuck in a babys abdomin and sucking out the air that he cant burp out along with his stomach contents and some mucus and then re pumping the stomach contents and mucus back in. and i changed my first diaper i ever. word. dolla dolla bill yall.

Massive productions

All is well with the massive kids down south. Last night the massive hooked up a san francisco house party hard. along with an experimental noise musician, smurf and millz got projections going on the inside of a garage door. minds were blown. kegs we drained. the house was stoked and welcome us back to rock it again (and possibly bigger and outside) soon. then millz cought a nice cat nap into santa cruz, eli got dropped off and Smurf pulled the first shift down the 1, because he felt like taking the scenic route, so millz wakes up in big sur and the two take a dip. then millz pulls second shift and the two arrive in san diego by 1pm. today we filmed Millz and his cohort do some roller art at a freeway underpass. clips are being imported from that to be projected this evening.we are also importing footage of alot of the kids at the parties graff, its gonna be good. last nights event was also filmed. shit is running smoothly except smurfs computer doesnt seem to want to take in discs. the two should be departing from san diego around 1 tomarrow. san diegos temp and attitude are wonderful.

there needs to be a proper post with media from the 8th party
a burning man pst need to show up as well.
millz will attempt to work on both later this week.
peace massers

theres these sick cats coming out SD called formula abstract
I went to highschool with the DJ and have done some graff with on of the MC's and i think they would be down to play the SC pirate pit in the near future, just something to keep in the mind, as there are many months laid infront of us.

this site is important if you want an inverter, true sine wave, etc..

http://www2.northerntool.com/inverters.htm


True Sine Wave or Modified Sine Wave?

Power inverters produce one of two different types of wave output:

* Modified Sine Wave
* True Sine Wave



Modified sine wave inverters deliver power that is consistent and efficient enough to run most devices adequately. These types of inverters are the most popular and affordable. They are also small and highly efficient. The Vector power inverter line is based on modified sine wave technology.

True sine wave inverters are the most expensive, but they also deliver the most consistent, highest quality wave output. Some sensitive equipment requires a true sine wave, like laptop computers, tool battery chargers, professional audio/video equipment, certain medical devices and variable speed tools. If you aren’t sure if the device you want to use requires a true sine wave or not, call the manufacturer to ask. Any AC device will run on a true sine wave inverter, whether it requires it or not.


pretty sure cool people like even know this already, but thought It was postable anyway.

22nd FLYER

to be resolved:
- how much are you charging at the door?
- should there be a start time?
- should there be an address/parking directions?
- did I forget anything?

I drop knowledge like a clumsy encyclopedia salesman

What up illin chilluns,

Quick note if you didn't get an email update - spurred by a discussion of bike-funk with R2 earlier, I created a Mobile Systems page on the wiki...I thought it was in documentation, but apparently it ain't. If anybody knows how to move wiki pages once created, this one should be in documentation. It provides links for how to set up bike mounted audio and projection, including GRL's Laser Tag. I have some detail pictures of our projection bike on my flickr , but it's in a private set so you have to be one of my contacts to see it. Wait, scratch that, I just realized I can add them to the MX Flickr Group - and so that's what I did.

On the mobile audio tip, there's an installment of the international Mobile Music Workshop going down as a part of the Conflux Festival in Brooklyn. They have really good documentation of the last 3 years of the workshop in the archive section of the MMW website.

Tangent: here's this live electronica band called Simian Mobile Disco, and I heard they're pretty good. They prolly have youtube vids cuz they just played some big shows in NYC.

Also let it be known that I'm already on top of the flyer for the show on the 22nd. The art is done and now that all the bands are confirmed I'm just gonna set the type and I'll post it here asap so you guys can have em printed for the show on the 8th.

schedules

we need to follow millz example and put up our schedules..

right now i'm only signed up for video editing and photolighting

monday wed. 9-11:30
wed. 2-5:30

september parties

so the harsh/dipity show is 4 days away. Cyd pulled through hard with 4 walkie talkie, a nice chash box, a couple security jackets and apparently some gentemen to fill them, so legit, i knew she was waiting to bust out. she is down to sit down and meet about the show tonight at 10. The main points i want to bring up this evening to be figured are, Can i get in contact with this kid doing art to solidify details, lets get some sort of crude spreadsheet going of timeslots for people to do shifts for: driveway, parkinglot, security, bar, vj, DOCUMENTATION, and kitchen.what sort of alcohol should be bought and where the money earned should go.? and how and where people pay for the show and what shows that they paid.

for documentation i think it would be really cool if we could have someone on photo and someone on video and we could get a little snippet of both on here in the following week. i am glad to offer my services for either,

lets flier cabrillo, coffeeshops, music stores, and surfshops!

as far as the 22nd i would really love to start working on ideas for the flier now so that we could have some at the show SATURDAY lets set up a brainstorm session.

as for the Vj set up for the 8th i would like to have a little ripping party with andreas and r2 in the next two days, i get out of school at 9 both days so lets think somewhere between 10 and 1am. lets get everything out and do a runthrough for ourselves.

P.S. my school schedule is the following
mon 7-9:15 pm (drawing)
tues 2:10-4:45 (math)
wed 2:30- 4:40 (vid editing) 7-9:15 (drawing)
thurs 2:10-4:45 (math) 6-10:15 (welding)

cheers!

Sept 22nd Update

After talking to the rest of the household and the bands involved and after the number of artists that had to drop from the lineup we have decided that we need to scale back the size of the show on the 22nd. No outdoor stage, we at least need to stay moderately chill with the neighbors, especially given the number of shows coming up in the fall season.

Looks like as it stands now its going to be an evening with:

STRENGTH (portland, confirmed)

SUGAR & GOLD (sf, confirmed)

the HARSHMELLOWZ (sc, confirmed)

the WALKING DEAD (sacremento, confirmed)

and possibly some other band that S&G knows but I think it might be 1 too many bands in that case.

Luckily the harshmellows don't have a very complicated setup, so having a staff of people that are SUPER on top of it will be the key to making this event happen smoothly. We will need tight security, permanant staffing at the top of the driveway, people manning the bar and taking money all night. We'll need a lot of help from friends, but yanno ... it'll hopefully all work out in the end.
ROCK!
