Thanks to everyone who came out for Blackhole Wednesday and the all ages show (especially Dasha for representing the future) with Jupiter One, Up the Empire, Particle Zoo, and The Meltdowns at 58. Although I feel like I won the iPOD DJ competition at LITM last Saturday, samples of my music are being sent to the lab for analysis, I'll get back to you with the official results.
This Saturday, we are having a little Spring Party/Closing Party at 58 for Maurizio's 99 cent dream art exhibit. Johnny Astronaut will be on the decks, Rolando Ramos will offer up a reggae explosion with Lex Leonard and Friends on a bongo ride that will soak you in your warmest places .Schedule your Orgasm for 10 pm . We are starting early at 6 pm and ends around midnight. I can't stay late and as you all know, Jesus will be returning home this weekend. My parents asked me to pick him up from Newark International on Sunday and then head over to their house for dinner at 2 pm. I hope he's hungry, my mom cooks a mean dinner.Before he returns, it seems like a bunch of Good people are celebrating his arrival with music on Friday. The Subway Surfers are at the Loop Lounge in Passaic, The Black Hollies are playing just down the street at the Clash Bar in Clifton. Lismore and Sounds of Greg D are in the City. And No Pasaran and Beautiful Bear are here in JC at the Iron Monkey. Thursday will be a little more Mawdy as Art House Productions will host their final "Art House" night of spoken word and music at Victory Hall. The show starts at 8 pm, come see the longest running spoken word night in JC (on record). There will be some celebratory champagne at the event. Don't worry either because AHPs found a new home at St. Francis Building in Hamliton Park. (the part that's not surrounded by a fence).

"...If you compare yourself with others,your may become vain or bitter,for always there will be greater and lesser persons than

The opening reception for an exhibition at LITM that is sure to
inspire...appropriately titled Beyond the Horizon is a solo
show by photographer Sara Wight. I was first introduced to
Sara's work last year as she began her mission to exhibit
her work in New York. It will only be a matter of time
before this artist's work will be in high demand. To me,
the images represent solitude and peace while overwhelming
me with the understanding that man is but a small piece in
the entire scope of existence. For a preview of Sara's
work Visit http://www.sarawight.com/Catch the opening reception at LITM located at:140 Newark AveDowntown Jersey City, NJ 07302http://www.litm.com/*THIS EVENT IS FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC*

Often times artists are known for their contribution to popular culture and history through the works they create, and seldom known for the education they provide to the multitude. The artist Cheryl R. Riley is one of those special people. Having her work in major private and public collections throughout the world is not enough. She has chosen the pen as another way to educated and expose the public to artists from the African Diaspora by way of a monthly editorial she now writes for (the new) EBONY magazine. In this April Issue on page 108 -available on newsstands now, Cheryl presents artist Gary Simmons. This article has peaked my interest in knowing more about this artist, but other artists from the African Diaspora who are highly sought after in today's art market and somehow slip under the radar. Check out the article...The next artist Cheryl will feature will be Kara Walker. I caught a sneak peek- Can't wait!

Until next time!

A big thank you to all who attended the Luna Lounge show! That was such a special night of music. From start to finish. All the bands were better than great. And let's celebrate that there's a very cool new venue born! Again, big kisses to those who attended..
And for those lookin' to be kissed, check out our next show. Another good one. This time it's upstairs at Mo Pitkin's in the East Village.
This is a really neat small theater-like room, having a 75-person capacity with tables, chairs, candles, & you! That kind of vibe.
Great for hearing a performance without the usual bar distractions.
Come early and have dinner downstairs. The eats are very good -->
