A Jersey City Independent reporter embedded with the art rebel forces confirmed that Junestar Mr. Blackman and the Afro Charlie Sheens will be the first Bandtallion of the 58th Division this Saturday Night.
Uta Brauser, in an address to her forces, tapped Junestar for the lead, citing that General Roland Ramos forces would not be able to reach the Mansion until 21:00 hours (that 9 pm). Brauser in a 30 second voice mail said "unleashing anything with Charlie Sheen associated to it" was a spiritual as much as logistical choice.
Furthermore, Braser confirmed that Lucinda's Crepes and Jersey Wine and Spirits will be with the initial brigade, so good rations will be aplenty. Leaked military plans also revealed that The Radio Exiles will follow June Star, with Roland Ramos. Ladell McLin and finally, Wyldlife will end the celebration.
Support in the Airwaves will be lead by DJ Motor Funker , who will be dropping beats like bombs all night in the Bunker Bowling Alley, with Lightning Brigade of Norm Francoer .
People of Jersey City, we ask you to join us.

About the organizations.
Please join us for an opportunity to help two vital art organizations here in Jersey City. Creative Grove(Arts in Action, a non profit for the arts), ...providing and outdoor space in the public where artists can showcase themselves, bring installations, interactive ideas, work for sale, performances, music, deejays and build an independent market place for the locally handmade.. 58 Longevity Fund is a non profit organization raising money to help 58 Gallery with zoning issues and grant support.
About the bands :
JUNESTAR MRBLACKMAN AND THE CHARLIE AFRO SHEENS @ 7:45
RADIO EXILES @ 8:35
ROLAND RAMOS PRESENTS @ 9:25
http://www.rolandramospresents.com/
RRP, or Roland Ramos Presents, transports concert-goers to the islands and into the stratosphere simultaneously. Often finding inspiration in the slightest utterance, the band goes from zero to 10,000 in a matter of bars (excuse the pun). Roland Ramos also runs the Open Jam session at The Lamppost Bar every Wednesday.
LADELL MCLIN @ 10:15
Guitarist, singer, and songwriter Ladell Mclin
http://new.ladellmclin.com/
Ladell has been described as an artist who possesses the ability to transcend the bounds of conventional music through his muse, the blues. Born on the South Side of Chicago, a notable center for the blues, Ladell discovered the music that would be profoundly influential in his life. He then worked to hone his seemingly natural talents on the guitar.
Nurtured by his musical family’s close ties to Chicago’s most notable and historic creators of the blues, Ladell began playing at Buddy Guy’s famed nightclub, Legends, with musicians such as John Primer, and Eddie Burks. Ladell then became a touring member of the James “Blood” Ulmer and Fernando Jones’ bands.
WYLDLIFE @ 11:05
Forming out of Purchase College, Wyldlife quickly strided into the New York music scene with a pair of leather boots on their feet and a mission in their hearts: to bury the days of tame rock and roll. Still digging on their collection of 70′s punk and power pop, perhaps the boys were born into the entirely wrong decade altogether? Or perhaps they realize that to get an audience on its feet, all that’s need is a fast beat and a loud melody- a timeless simplicity enhanced with refined grit that has (nearly) been lost in today’s clutter of rock boredom. The Nicotine EP, Wyldlife’s newest and highly-addictive release, is guaranteed to create arguments over which track is best.
With an insanely kinetic live show that has been compared to Iggy & The Stooges, The Hives and The Ramones, it seems that all ground is covered. The gang is onto something bigger and want to take you along for the ride.
Let’s move!

Underground Art Leaders call for City-Wide Art Strike Saturday March 26th
For Immediate Release (and prolonged pleasure)
(Jersey City, NJ) Uta Brauser from Creative Grove and Orlando Reyes of the Fifty Eight announced a planned Art Strike for Saturday March 26th. In a joint communique, leader of the rebel forces and noted "Outlaw", Orlando Reyes said that five Bandtallions will join the 58th infantry in the artsault on the Barrow Mansion. Creative Grove, art strong woman Uta Brauser also vowed to unleash a barrage of art on the facility. Brauser, in an earlier interview, cited that several local artists had already donated pieces to help the rebels funding efforts. Additionally, illuminationist Norm Francoer, pledged to light up the mansion, going so far to say that he plans to make turns "the bowling alley in the basement into a disco inferno". This assertion was reiterated by DJ Motor Funker who guaranteed a sound throw down of epic proportions. Further claims by the Dancing Tony, the groups Sinsiter of Information, of a stockpile of Rockit Docket's could not be confirmed at press time. However, even without verifying this information, our sources were able to confirm that the group has gone so far as to establish a safe corridor between the Mansion and Lucky Sevens in the event the group needs to retreat to higher ground with a planned curfew to take place at midnight.
Volunteers and new recruits can contact Dancing Tony at rockitdocket@gmail.com for further information in helping the cause.
Listed Below is the full communique.

city wide arts to engulf sleep burrough - culture expected to swell beyond tolerable levels
Run to the supermarket and start hoarding as many "c" batteries as the courtesy clerk will allow you to purchase, a great storm that has been brewing for the last three months again will threaten our quaint village ! sadly we sacrificed our only virgin the last time the JCFridays Dragon appeared and now it looks as the city will feel the full force of this art breathing monster. Sensational stories have already appeared in the windows of Fifty Eight Gallery, as newsman Ken Bastard (formerly wLITM news) has posted giant 5 foot warning signs that date back to the first appearance of the JC Fridays Dragon in the 1930's. This PULP should be taken seriously, and these in need of cleansing their AUDIO BODIES can do so with the OLDE GHOST's power. Mind you, others have gathered to to anticipate this attack and you can take shelter at any of these listed places www.jcfridays.com . Fearing an apocolypse, many have planned to gather at 660 Grand later this evening to ask one of the last Dragon Slayers for help. Prey for us.
Recovery can be short lived on Saturday. As our sister city, Hoboken, will be engulfed in a green storm of St. Patricks Day. Fear not my love, you can always escape to Newark for more art.
Sunday, a Dragons revenge awaits with 4th Street Art Chili cook-off. Parlay studios (behind Shoprite) host this second annual event. Bring the heat 2 pm to 6 pm.
