FEBUARY 12TH @ SAIL INN - HILLGRASS BLUEBILLY PRESENTS: THE 3RD ANNUAL "LOSER'S BALL" featuring: DEX ROMWEBER (of "Flat Duo Jets" fame), EXENE CERVENCA (of "X" fame) & OUR OWN "FLATHEAD"...
Twenty years on from the FLAT DUO JETS, who created the template for stripped down rock and roll that’s been copped by the White Stripes and a thousand far less clever bands, Dex Romweber has teamed up with his sister Sara (Let’s Active, Snatches of Pink) for the first time on the debut album by the Duo, Ruins of Berlin. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dexter_Romweber
In August of 1976 Exene moved to Los Angeles, because she knew she had to get out of Florida. She arrived in town with $80 in a paper bag and wound up living with 5 people in a 1-room apartment in Ocean Park. A short time later she began working in Venice in the library at the literary arts cente

Christmas is soon, we call Christmas, the feast of love.
We know we should love each time, even the people whose way of life we do not understand.
However, we are only human and not always fair.
Let us try to understand and to love, at Christmas and maybe after!
I wish for Christmas to me, I am learning to understand!
In the future, not people who have to call soldiers to die in order to change the history of the tower building of Babylon!
All men were given intelligence in order to understand.
We have feelings, to love.
In this sense, I will celebrate Christmas. And I hope that all people, regardless of their race and what religion they belong, to begin the understanding which has been given to use in order to understand.
Let us live in peace!
I wish everyone a wonderful and peaceful Christmas!
