What Is Discordianism ?
Discordianism is a modern religion centered on the idea that chaos is as important as order. It was founded circa 1958–1959 by Malaclypse the Younger with the publication of its principal text, the Principia Discordia. There is some division as to whether it should be regarded as a parody religion, and if so to what degree. It has been called "Zen for roundeyes", based on similarities with absurdist interpretations of the Rinzai school. Discordianism recognizes chaos, discord, and dissent as valid and desirable qualities, in contrast with most religions, which idealize harmony and order. Eris, the Greek mythological goddess of discord, has also become the matron deity of the religion Discordianism.
It is difficult to estimate the number of followers and correctly identify Discordian groups. The anarchist ethic that pervades Discordianism is reflected in an encouragement to form schisms and cabals. Additionally, few adherents hold Discordianism as their only or primary faith. Instead, Erisians tend to adopt Discordianism as a complement to other faiths.

Dynamic Discord Agency is a Berlin-based company with the profession of promoting, booking and managing talented bands, well known acts as well as promising newcomers. We are running our business based on our love to music, to the punkrock-scene, to the DIY-ethics amd based on the fact that we are trying to share a passion and a vision with those people who sold their hearts and soul to handmade and committed music. It..s not only punkrock we are bound to, since we are not narrow-minded or limited, we also are open to various kinds of guitar-music, such as Ska, Indie, Hardcore, Garage, Metal etc, in the end the main thing is that the music is played with passion and in any case aming against shit as racism, fascism, discriminating ideologies and other stupidities.
One of our tasks is europeanwide PROMOTION for alternative music. Since we are mostly into music like all kinds of Punkrock, Hardcore & Rock..n..Roll, we preferably work in that niche of the wide halls of sound and entertainment. We keep good relations to magazines, fanzines, netzines, radiostations and freelancers in the media all over Europe with more than 1200 reliable contacts. In the past we did promotional campaigns for bands like :

Besides that : *johnnyamok is co-founder of the Austrian-based NEUSTADTPUNK NETWORK and does MANAGEMENT for brilliant bands like RENTOKILL, ASTPAI a.o. Just have a look at the Neustadtpunk's myspace-profile, they are among our top-friends of course.
Steffen has been working in a close connection with our friends from ROADPICK ENTERTAINMENT, also one of our top-friends, who did promotion and booking for brilliant Ska-Artists.
Sash did management for the bands THE CREETINS and STROM in the past, now he retired from daily business and concentrates on a more spiritual role in the agency. Means : He's doing tourmanagement if he gets asked for it and if he gets paid well, hahahaha....;-).
In daily business he will be properly replaced by the young promising racing rookie Rob, who has been working on intern at MAD TOURBOOKING and has a small booking agency called FIT OF RAGE, where he takes care of the band MORE THAN CROSSED.
Those 4 Elders, together more fascinating than the Marx Brothers and The 3 Stooges on acid, met some aeons ago in the office of the guys and girls from DESTINY TOURBOOKING & RECORDS / FAT WRECK CHORDS EUROPE, where Sash had been starving as a freelancing press-bitch for Destiny Records and *johnnyamok and Steffen were consecutive PR-sluts for the Fatties ... and then Rob came in since he fell out of the stars, dropped after an unsuccessful trial of the Borgs to turn him into one of them ... well, err, I guess that's all you need to know at the moment, for further information please contact the guys personally or their headshrinkers ... AND PLEASE STOP THAT WHISPERING IN OUR HEADS, OKAY ?!?!?

Hey PepperMan Well, this birthday was definitely a good one, it lasted two weeks though, between Friends and family. I've been in and out of Rennes pretty often between the flat there, the Mondo Bizarro and the shows, Saint Maudez, Paris or Columbus ...better live, right? It was pretty amazing 'cause the bands I saw Friday in Rennes came to play in my little town yesterday. Quite a surprise and the peak of my birthday for sure. Great guys, you should have look (Johnny Casino and the Secrets / The Outside / The Kits). So, when do you want me to come to Berlin, plug it and play The stooges. I'll tap my guitare, you'll see how I goal. Soon or later German!
But I have promises to keep and miles to go before I sleep-
