About AFF:
The Akron Independent Film Festival was founded by Rob Lucas in 2002. He ran the event at The University of Akron’s Gardner Student Center that year and the next. In 2006 and 2007, the UA student filmmaking organization “The 2380 Project” hosted the fest at the new Student Union Theater. In September 2007, a new team of five board members, drawn from “The 2380 Project” and the community, incorporated the festival and attained 501(c)3 nonprofit status. In July 2009, the organization's name was changed to simply “Akron Film” to accommodate our growing range of programs.

THE KENT STAGE PRESENTS ^♠^ GOD'S BLACK.45 ^♠^ HALLOWEEN PARTY 1 YEAR ANIVERSARY SHOW
We are a taking break from recording, for our aniversary which is featuring other great acts such as: Skel Riffton, Catera, Snuff Film, Not This Body, and Born Empty.
Tickets are $5.00 dollars, Get them now, we WILL sell out. Just hit us up on here, leave us a comment or a message.
Its all ages! they sell fairly cheap beer and wine there, but security's loose, and i'm sure their drinks aren't as cheap as stuffing a 5th of 110 vodka into your girlfiends purse, Just a heads up. I don't like our fans being discuraged to come see good music by bar prices.

Also for those of you who aren't familair with Halloween in Kent, it is the biggest Halloween festival in Ohio drawing anywhere from 10,000 to 25,000 costumed drunks ready to reak mayham downtown till the sun comes up. So the after party will be right there waiting.
The Kent Stage is located right in the heart of downtown Kent, you can't miss it.
also if you check out our music, keep in mind, the quality of our recordings is complete crap but the songs are amazing

Hello AFFriends!
Thanks for a great film festival! I din't have to bum much money at all to get in. And thanks, Kendra, for the pencil, I filled out my survey with the honest-to-goodness truth of the matter.
I had one difficulty with the proceedings, and that was the total exclusion of my history in the origination of Superman. Brad Ricca knows what I'm talking about. There I was, finishing off my bottle of Thunderbird, really flyin', I mean really flyin' high, when I see some hoodlum stealin' a car stereo out of a '32 Ford. Now that ain't right. Especially since the Cleveland Police just got done throwin' my ragged ass in the slammer for 3 days for jaywalkin'. So I swooped down into the situation, and there's these two guys off to the side, too chicken to do anything, by the name of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, sayin' "Is that a bird? Is that a plane?"
And I says, "No, I'm Baler, make that SuperBaler, and this punk ain't fencin' this car stereo!" And I took it, and wouldn't you know it, there's a Ten Teeth of Twenty CD in the stereo. So Siegel and Shuster shuffle off, draw a cartoon, make a million, and leave me penniless. Meanwhile, the only witness to support my side of the story is a punk with a crowbar and my bootprint on his butt.
Needless to say, I'm still livin' under the bridge.
There ain't no justice. But now the truth be told, it was I, I, Balertwine of lore, who was the one behind the creation of Superman, and may it be so recorded for all posterity. Thank you for allowin' me to clarify this.
