About me:
mc sub-zero permafrost 2007 Fall EU "Fortress of Ass" Tour Itinerary, Press Kit, and Booking Request
ITINERARY
so far confirmed:
oct. 5, Berlin, West Berlin (venue), Poly-Sex Party www.unitedsubscum.net, 2 sets- one acapella, and one during the dj dance party.
nov. 1, Lyon, Transbodeur, with Filastine.
Can Masdeu, Barcelona.
nov. 24, Lafibra, Distortion Festival, Catalunya, with Filastine.
dec. 8, Zaragoza, with Filastine.
still booking for Berlin from sept. 29 - oct. 24, France and Belguim from nov. 28- early Nov., Spain from Nov. 2- dec. 11.
So anyways my lickle polar kittens, all those cities during the times mentioned is what I’m trying to book and unless its in France I will be booking mc sub-zero permafrost solo a la mode. I’m really looking not to travel much more than is already in the itinerary and trying to get a 100 euro minimum guarantee (plus travel costs if not in the city where currently staying) and food and a bed (can you say spinal degeneration?) for that night and heat- if it’s chilly- miss permafrost’s thyroid disease keeps her cold enough thank very much, but otherwise if I’m already in said city when the show could be booked I’m much more flexible (c/mon you seen my drop-splits) in terms of pay and am always interested in playing for nice crazy people.
I can fill 15-45 minutes and can either do my world famous samba-booty-bass-beginners’-b-girl&boy and life-advice ass motivational workshop (aka “The Gift of Ass” as seen round the world), or my highly lauded mc set featuring my virtual orchestra of international dj’s extraordinaire (meaning my mp3 player- including exclusive beats tailor-made for me by former co-conspirators: DJ Filastine, The Mole, maha81, and Mr. Quintron, and tracks expected from duranduranduran, lucy stroner (the cuter half of low tech), and demetia) or any combination thereof- though doing just one of these is, to be sure, enough entertainment for most people for the rest of their lives. The mc set includes twisted idiosyncratically re- and de- arranged a capella standards in several languages- though unfortunately all Latinate languages currently- and of course my patented warp-speed supra-literate intergalactic sex-rhymes, and I can easily adapt my show for no sound-system- like any true vaudevillian I can hold it down unplugged. Okay Y’all?

PHOTOS/PRESS KIT PIX
performance and posed pix up on my myspace page (url: mc_subzer_permafrost)
im in the process of uploading more pix from the super jank photoshoot me and the amazing maik hasenbank did in a Hamburg bedroom- they are super foxy and available upon request in pretty huge file size (they were shot w a 10.1 megapixel camera) from around 5-9 MBs, but just to be frenly i resized them here to under 1 MB.
MP3s
please check out my new, as yet totally tumbleweed strewn, music myspace page- its new so's all its gots is some MP3s, "Boca de Oura" (with DJ Filastine), though I gots to say its not really representative of my usual performing style- which is super-animated and super-funny, and uh, not really “hard” though I earned my street cred legit- may times over, blasting cash-money and no-limit crew mcs at local battles. Ayup.
press kit and résumé available upon request
So don't miss this rare chance to have the one, the only, the less than one and only (according to Fahrenheit), intergalactically known, citically declaimed and award-winning old-school entertainer play your town, village hamlet, iceberg (special rates apply for the ice-bound- must provide luxury stretch limo-sled with polar kitten-team though- it’s in my rider- the small print), island or peninsula. I will sweat buckets, hemorrhage astral energy and otherwise further handicap myself (only too true) for your listening and viewing pleasure.
Thank You Kids!

(following posted july 2007)
still being affected by post-K fallout.
come see me before i leave new york for quite awhile or book me into you euro-trash itinerary- not just boody-workshops but me and you hangin hangin out drinking mate soda and biking into kreuzberg, or you and me opning our own 2-person sweatshop- ill bring the googly eyes if you bring the poly-fil?
i miss all y'all and am tired of living la vida exclusida.
and hanging out with all mi familia has made me heartsick for pupusas and company, my apartment is huge and you could come over and have a couple of last meals with me before i gots to pack it up for while im away.
i don't know what else to say right now but i am pretty S-A-D.
maybe i'll write another about me when i give a fuck.
Who I'd like to meet: PEEPS IN TX and NOLA: any socially responsible bodyworkers that would like to trade sevices for ass workshops?// for reals tho- ladies to sew and fix bikes and ride with in NYC. and who wants to start a po-mo samba- bellydancing-martial arts-burlesque-vaudeville troupe?// anyone?// more producers/beatboxers/percussionsavants to feed my insatiable need for indiosyncratic bounce beats (shoutouts to dj 5-oh, john-paul, jaleel, earl the pearl, dj bisquitino, mc tracheotomy, mr. quintron, scarecrow inc., miles, john joyce, blu and christine, the freesoundcollective, dr. eric von knownothing, noesunflowerfish, dj megabitch, lance the drummer, pozzaz drum crew, filastine, spukkin phaseship, timmy bindlestiff, the infernal noise brigade, the rude mechanical orchestra, and the mole for steppin up with the serious boody over, lo, these many years/ torchsingers to tag team with (bridget, altercation- where are you)/ more marching bands and precision ass teams (go sprockettes and BCclettes!)/ more nice funny people, in general
Kitty Croissant benevolently oversees all activities in my abode. The Myles eats posters off my wall and poops out rubber bands. She is the most wee kitty and she makes seahorse noises.
