dear patrons of the arts,
we are planning to document the last 2 gala event shows of this tour. but we are also interested in your experience of getting ready for the shows to get another perspective on the events.
so if you have tickets for either the detroit (sept 25th) or chicago (sept 26th) gala event shows, and you own a video camera, please begin[...]
so this time i’m writing to you about a film i directed called “GUNNIN’ FOR THAT #1 SPOT”. it’s about the top high school basketball players in the country. there’s more info at gunninmovie.com. the whole site isn’t up yet, but there is a temp site there and the rest of the site should be up soon. hope you find the topic as interesting as i did.
i’m writing to you about this one through the b-boys mailing list, but generally we won’t be hitting this list with info about oscilloscope releases, so if you want to keep an eye on OSCILLOSCOPE LABORATORIES sign up for the o-scope mailing list at oscilloscope.net (sorry, that sounded like a commercial.)
and to anyone that took the time to reach out to your government representatives on the tibet situation, thanks for that. nice one.
hey all, things are really getting intense in tibet now. i just hope that all of the suffering that these protesters are enduring leads to some positive change. below is a news bulletin that i got this morning. please take the time to write to your local congress representative and ask them to get to work. it would be sad if what is happening in tibet now had no constructive result.
Urgent Action: Tell your Congressional Representative to Support Tibet
In horrific late breaking news, Radio Free Asia is now reporting that up to 80 or more Tibetans have been killed in today’s violent clashes with Chinese military. Chinese authorities responded with brute force today to ongoing protests in Lhasa and across Tibet. Supported by tanks, thousands of armed troops have sealed off the three major monasteries where nonviolent protests were initiated on Monday. Chinese police have fired live ammunition into crowds of unarmed Tibetans and unconfirmed reports from eye-witnesses in Lhasa say that 26 Tibetans were gunned down outside Drapchi prison. While the international public and media have been appropriately horrified by China’s clampdown, the U.S. has made only very weak statements. White House Spokesman Tony Fratto said, “We believe Beijing needs to respect Tibetan culture. They need to respect multi-ethnicity in their society. We regret the tensions between ethnic groups and Beijing.”
Please contact your Congressional Representatives now and urge them to support Tibet by calling on the U.S Government to strongly condemn China’s actions.
Sorry, meant to get this up a couple of days ago, but been bizzzy! Today, 4-6 pm EST will be our last radio show before we take a few weeks holiday break. Today’s theme: Childhood jams. Don’t hate, just enjoy. Happy Happy
OK, meant to put this up sooner. Radio show will be tomorrow, Wed Dec 12, 4-6 pm EST. Same for the following week, Wed Dec. 19 After that we will take a few weeks Holiday break, and then hopefully resume with the weekly broadcast, until we get too crazed with some other ish. Speaking of ish, this week’s show has a “freaky” theme, so get the ear muffs ready, it will not be family friendly listening.
We will be broadcasting live and direct today, Tue. 4-6 p.m. EST y’all. You can either go to our site and hit the radio button or just in case that doesn’t work, go to www.littleradio.com . Check it.
