The 1980's, New England music scene, glam, vox and guitar, artistic expression, freedom of speech, coffee, cats, promoting local bands and shows, organizing events, independent films, social justice, anti-Gen-X mindsets, Aries-Capricorn relationships, languages, saints, prayer, archaeology, loving my soulmate Matthew, Spirituality, working with youth, and building an empire with that guy who collaborated with me on the New England Punk, Goth, and Metal Fest...Oh, and did I mention MUSIC?
I support FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND ARTISTIC EXPRESSION. Remember, being offended is a CHOICE.
"Man is born free, but is everywhere in chains" - Jean Jacques Rousseau

Anderson Lynne Mar - promoter, producer, event coordinator, champion of the underdog in terms of the local scene. Aries w/Pisces moon and Gemini rising; ISTJ according to the MBTI, and Enneagram Type 3. Resembles 80's era Joan Jett, sings like Grace Slick, drinks coffee like a fiend, and probably last seen at a rock show in a neighborhood near you.
I live by one creed, and one creed only: THINGS NEED TO LOOK GOOD, IN ORDER TO BE GOOD. This is the first law of marketing.
In the immortal words of KISS, "I wanna rock 'n roll all night / and party every day". My entire life revolves around the music industry and the performing arts. I am a vocalist and songwriter as well (ex-Solace; ex-Gallows Hill) . Currently working on a new project called VeinGlorious.
I have the coolest dayjob in the world, as the General Manager for The Paul Green School of Rock Music in Watertown, MA. We offer lessons in guitar, bass, keys, drums, and vocals, and we are all about rock 'n roll!
ATTENTION BANDS: I DO NOT TRANSACT BAND BOOKINGS THROUGH MYSPACE!!! YOU NEED TO EMAIL ME AT OTHNIEL77@YAHOO.COM. Got it???
My "sacred space" was my venue, The Skybar - http://www.skybar.us - in Somerville, MA (read: suburban Boston). Unfortunately, we were shut down on 7/15/07 due to not being able to afford a $40,000 "Rhode Island-style" sprinkler system - a fate suffered by many New England venues as of late. A lot of unique talent graced the stage at Skybar - the bands, fans, and staff are an amazing group of people who have enriched my life in many ways, and I am so grateful for this opportunity to make a difference in the local scene.

My other half, Matthew "Metal Matt" Marchesi, and I ran a yearly festival for unsigned New England bands at The Palladium in Worcester, MA, called The New England Punk, Goth, & Metal Festival from 2005-2007. It was truly a labor of love between two Industry soulmates who found each other and planned a life together, forged by a passion for music and a desire to help the local scene. We have a cable access TV show, "The PGM Show" that tends to draw alot of interesting attention from the media at times! Our future plans include starting a record label and a new event called The Musical Scholarship, so stay tuned!!

NEXT UPCOMING SHOWS BY DARK SKY PRODUCTIONS:
Who I'd like to meet:
I like people who respect and appreciate me for the RIGHT reasons (looks, talent, achievements, and intelligence). If you want to be my friend, be aware that I come with a set of rules, the key ones being:
1) Don't ask too many questions. Accept me at face value and recognize that I have a right to privacy as well.
2) Do not try to discredit me in any way. I work hard to build community in the scene, I've been doing this since I was 17; my experience should speak for itself. Many times, the tried-and-true carries more credibility than passing trends.
3) Support the arts in some form or fashion (either by direct involvement or appreciation thereof).
4) Don't try to ride my coattails, and then turn around and backstab me to impress other people. I will help you if you ask me to, but you'd darn well better remember the line from the Human League song, "...don't forget it's me who put you where you are now/And I can put you back down too..."
5) I am pro-free speech. I will never buy into the Generation-X ideal of "political correctness", so if you're easily offended by people who are not afraid to speak their minds, then I'm not for you.
Motivated people and high achievers welcome; others need not apply! I especially have ZERO tolerance for people who steal!!!
Who I DON'T Wanna Meet:
My profile says MARRIED for a reason.
(If you're not in a band, please go away!) Not interested in unwanted attention from men. My heart belongs to my soulmate.
