   About Urayoán Noel
Puerto Rico-born and Bronx-based performapoet Urayoán Noel has been delighting and confounding the enlightened masses since the late 1990s. Solo and as part of the rock band objet petit a, he has performed-sung-scatted throughout the U.S. and Puerto Rico, as well as in the Dominican Republic and Perú. His laughtracked new wave guarachas have rocked the rafters and/or emptied the room at the Nuyorican Poets Café, Bowery Poetry Club, Bar 13, Cornelia Street Café, Instituto Cervantes, and Roka Espacio. His "Kool Logic" tour has brought him to colleges, universities and conferences nationwide, and he headlined the 2006 Arizona International Latina/o Arts Festival. He has also been featured on WBAI-FM, and in the Puerto Rican TV shows "Cultura viva" and "En la punta de la lengua." Working at the intersection of page and stage, he has released two books of poetry, LAS FLORES DEL MALL (2000) and KOOL LOGIC/LA LOGICA KOOL (2005), as well as the rock-poetry performance dvd KOOL LOGIC SESSIONS: Poems, Pop Songs, Laugh Tracts (Bilingual, 2005), a collaboration with composer Monxo López. A book of poems in Spanish with rock/spoken word cd, entitled BORINGKEN, is forthcoming. On the Kool Logic Sessions dvd he is backed by Monxo López (guitars, programming) and Libertad O. Guerra (keyboards, synthesizers), with whom he also co-directs the 'Spanic Attack arts collective. An enthusiast of infomercials, edge cities, and (minor) dead French poets, he writes postpunk décimas in the shadow of Yankee Stadium and lives on the Grand Concourse.

Urayoán,

Search for Teixeiro (Leon Chavez), y aparece un musico que "lo tiene en su lista, lo tiene en su lista..." de influencias , y entre sus amigos estas tu. Apenas hace poco que escribi un blog que habla sobre una anecdota en el Edwin's Cafe y ahora te encuentro. Tambien puse un blog con una nota sobre una obra de Rey E. Andujar, quien por cierto parece que por fin viene a Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico para hacer una pelicula en video digital que escribi por aquellos tiempos Neoyorquinos. Tambien quiero hacer un experimento con videos de artistas que conozco (conocer, aunque sea un poco). Espero que participes. Aquello de "San Pancho" es memorable.


Saludos.
Caro

Anoche se me ha perdido...

Anoche se me ha perdido
en la arena de la playa
un recuerdo
dorado, viejo y menudo
como un granito de arena.
¡Paciencia! La noche es corta.
Iré a buscarlo mañana...
Pero tengo miedo de esos
remolinos nocherniegos
que se llevan en su grupa
-¡Dios sabe adónde!- la arena
menudita de la playa.

Invention

Tonight the moon is a cracker,
with a bite out of it
floating in the night,

and in a week or so
according to the calendar
it will probably look

like a silver football,
and nine, maybe ten days ago
it reminded me of a thin bright claw.

But eventually --
by the end of the month,
I reckon --

it will waste away
to nothing,
nothing but stars in the sky,

and I will have a few nights
to myself,
a little time to rest my jittery pen.

Poet of the Week: Kevin Young


MADRIGAL

Who can stand
spring? The weeping

willows drooping
The azaleas bright

The bow-legged beauties

who walk me into frenzy
All this returning

My eyes burning

Road windstrewn with limbs
severed like Roman statues

I am not brave
like the dogwood shade

Pray, soon autumn
will come, undress the trees

bobbyblue is a dynamo on stage. Playing with a full band, his songs ran the gamut from Who-ish acoustic shuffles to calypso, Bread covers to the Costa Rican national anthem. The key is his undeniable tenor (alto?) vocals and a confident, charming stage persona. I have seen a lot of great showcase performers, but never have I seen one that I would call a party...until now. Don't miss this guy.

Mar 13 2007 6:55 PM

SALUDOS!!!!!


Lopo Drido`` Rarísimo- Autogestionado 4 Estrellas Rarísimo es un documento muy importante en la aún joven historia del punk rock puertorriqueño. Lopodrido (antes Rechazo Social / Niños de Nadie) es una banda de trayectoria, que existe desde los tiempos donde no existían modas que respondieran a la música punk. El principio de la década de los años 1990 fue una época fértil para el punk local, como todas lo han sido desde entonces. Bandas como Sham Pain, Fobia Estatal y otras ya grababan sus demos y cassettes. Este disco documenta la larga historia de Lopodrido y su trayectoria del 1990 al 1997. Los temas fueron extraídos de diferentes grabaciones hechas en sus conciertos, grabaciones hechas con caseteras, indicadas para el sonido áspero que caracteriza a Lopodrido. El disco(que tambien fue editado por el) incluye un texto de Francisco Rosado, uno de los integrantes, que narra la historia de la banda, sus altas y bajas, y completa una colección imprescindible para la historia de la música subterránea local. Review de la revista cybernetica y impresa NOCtambulo de Puerto Rico Mayo-Junio 2006 AHORA solo $8 pesitos con CORREO PAGADO en interpunk.com/item.cfm?Item=62813& www.interpunk.com

in a song (get the download from my page)

by bobbyblue

if I knew you better
I could love you better

you’ve avoided conversation ever since we met
in your eyes i see hunger not for me but, just for sex
and, if you could just talk to me
i know your voice would make me hot
i’d let you, baby, get close to me
& you could see just what I got

chorus:

your tongue is for more than just kissin’
learn every word & use it to speak to me
your hands are for more than just touchin’ my body, baby
your heart is for more than just lovin’ me
feel the beats & use them in a song
if I knew you better I could love you better

if you could hang with me & listen to music
in your soul i see rhythm but you only use it for sex
if you could just dance with me
you’d see me sweat, & get real hot
I’d let you, baby, grind your body on me
& you could feel just what i got

(chorus)

bridge:
hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo

(chorus)

Thanx 4 listening &
Pura Vida (pure life),
bobbyblue
