   About The Sputter
Constructed out of an old satellite dish, a spoon, and some paper towels, The Sputter was born in a basement Autumn of 03. With a keen interest in aural emotives, rythmic elation, pulsating bio-electric sensory deposits.......and jazz, really good jazz, the members pushed forth on an exploration of the sound psyche venturing to the far reaches of the solarmetric plane. Alas, they realize that their journey has only just begun and they need the assistance of your ears to continue exploring new worlds and testing the boundaries of those that already exist. Please don't be shy. Lend them your ears. You will not regret it. disclaimer: only effective if head accompanies those ears with a proper amount of brain activity.

greetings to the four of you :)

I added you as I thought you might be interested in what I am doing.

Six_events is a worldwide performance project, looking for the art in the everyday. So far, there will be hundreds of group/individual performances in Spain, America (15 states), Egypt, China, India, Greece, Japan, Italy, England, Scotland, Ireland, Finland, Portugal, Germany, Serbia, Canada, New Zealand, Latvia, Azerbaijan, Australia, Malaysia and Israel across the last week in January (21st-27th)

Document your performances with pictures/films/poetry/drawings and they will be exhibited in London in February.

If you are interested in taking part and would like me to send you a reminder nearer the time about this then just send an email to six_events@yahoo.co.uk (tell me where you are as well!)

thanks for reading :)

Barrington Levy
with Pee Hawks and OdAm fEl mUd

The Oriental Theater
Friday, Dec 14, 2007
8:00pm All Ages

Hailing from Jamaica, international reggae star Barrington Levy has sat at the top of dancehall charts worldwide since he was 14. Called reggae's 'Mellow Canary' by virtue of his strong, pure vocal style, he's renowned as the first original singer of the dancehall era.

Also, Pee Hawks-- the love child of bands Pink Hawks and Pee Pee-- will be performing an all-improvisational set as a 12+ member symphonic movement of folky electronic psychedelia.

Additional blood thirsty performance by the neo-kabuki samurai performance group OdAm fEI mUd.

Feel free to come as your own piece of performance art or simply be injected with the cocktail of 'crazyfuntime'.
