SF Location: call 888-482-9281 or 415-412-0406, or visit prismatictracks.com or sfhousemusic.com the day of for directions
$10 before midnight, $15 after
$5 discount for dressing in Fire Engine Red (at door person's discretion--make some serious effort people!)
After the epic party experience of Electric Blue we are very excited to bring you Tonal: Fire Engine Red! Get ready for the next throwdown in this series of sick new color themed parties brought to you by some of the hottest crews in the underground house scene. We are teaming up to bring you only the best in funky, floorshaking underground house music to keep you grooving until the break of dawn. Tonal parties will showcase talent flown in from out of town as well as some of your favorite local house jocks. Strap on your dancing shoes and get ready to move it!
DJ's:
DJ Miles Maeda (Ouvre, Aroma, Apt Entertainment)--Los Angeles/Chicago
Miles Maeda was one of the pioneering members of Chicago's scene in the early '90s, putting out a slew of now legendary mixtapes that inspired many a young aspiring dj. Miles has since grown to be a favorite dj of many, known for his precise mixing skills and poised presence behind the decks. Sharing a residency at Chicago's Smartbar alongside Justin Long and DJ Heather, travelling the world to share his music with everyone, and consistently putting out top notch tracks keeps Miles very busy. We are very excited to have him out for our 2nd Tonal party and can't wait to hear him lay it down! http://www.milesmaeda.com
Brown (Drop Music, Aroma, Mobile Trax)--Nottingham, UK
Nottingham based vocalist and producer, Brown is one of the key players in the new UK sound which has had a huge impact on the record bags of our favorite dj's. Featured in collaborations with Littlemen, Inland Knights, Da Sunlounge, Andrew Phelan & Origami, and Bryan Jones, Brown has put tracks out on many a hot label such as Drop, Mobile Trax, Aroma, Myna, Prismatic, and many more. Brown's debut SF appearance at Crush-o-matic last summer had everybody grooving, and we are happy to welcome him back for Round Two for another dj set featuring himself on live vocals. http://www.myspace.com/brownrecordings
Andrew Phelan and Origami (Prismatic, Drop Music, So Sound)
One of SF's fastest growing duos in both the DJ and production realms, Andrew and Origami put down some serious business. The boys tore it up at Electric Blue and will surely do so again this time. A Chicago native, Mr. Phelan brings the funk just how we like it with Origami backing him up on live bass keeping the speakers booming and your bodies moving! http://www.djandrewphelan.com
Eric Sharp (Rock It Science)
Founder of the Rock It Science crew, Eric Sharp has quickly built a name for himself with his infectious energy behind the decks and the versatility to rock any party. Eric's opening set at Electric Blue got everybody going just right. This time Eric will throw down a Fire Engine Red closing set, leaving everybody begging for more and heading for the Endup. http://www.myspace.com/ericsharp
Rob Crush (Crush Collective)
Buckle up San Francisco! Rob Crush seems to be everywhere at once, spreading the good word about some of our city's favorite parties. What you may not know about Rob is that he has secretly been honing his craft, mixing records deep within the bowels of a dj research laboratory covered by a biotechnology front. You are going to wonder why you haven't heard from Rob sooner, and we look forward to seeing him get a lot more action on the decks! http://www.myspace.com/robcrush

The Really Really Free Market is a concept and eclectic event (occuring across the country and across oceans, and monthly in San Francisco) where participants bring objects, skills, performances, services and anything else with the intention of giving for the sake of giving.
It is a practice in community solidarity building, mutual aid, recycling, sharing resources, and caring for one another.
It is a demonstration of a fruitful alternative to the capitalist system of buying, selling, commodification, waste, exploitation and alienation.
It is a giant potluck, made up of ideas, food, music, books, skills, games and many other resources that we as a community can come together and share.
Everything is free. yes, really really free. no money, no bartering, no advertising, just free.

Legacy of Torture:
The War Against The Black Liberation Movement
The same people who tried to kill me in 1973 are the same people who are here today, trying to destroy me. I mean it literally. I mean there were people from the forces of the San Francisco Police Department who participated in harassment, torture and my interrogation in 1973 ... none of these people have ever been brought to trial. None of these people have ever been charged with anything. None of these people have ever been questioned about that. -- John Bowman, former Black Panther
In 2005 several former members of the Black Panther were held in contempt and jailed for refusing to testify before a San Francisco Grand Jury investigating a police shooting that took place in 1971. The government alleged that Black radical groups were involved in the 34-year old case in which two men armed with shotguns attacked the Ingleside Police Station resulting in the death of a police sergeant and the injuring of a civilian clerk.
In 1973, thirteen alleged "Black militants" were arrested in New Orleans, purportedly in connection with the San Francisco events. Some of them were tortured for several days by law enforcement authorities, in striking similarity to the horrors visited upon detainees in Guantánamo and Abu Ghraib.
In 1975, a Federal Court in San Francisco threw out all of the evidence obtained in New Orleans.
The two lead San Francisco Police Department investigators from over 30 years ago, along with FBI agents, have re-opened the case. Rather than submit to proceedings they felt were abusive of the law and the Constitution, five men chose to stand in contempt of court and were sent to jail. They were released when the Grand Jury term expired, but have been told by prosecutors that "it isn't over yet."
For more information on their case, visit http://www.cdhrsupport.org

Save the Date for Solstinox - March 3, 2007
Do you all remember that one night of the year we are farthest from the Man, yet equally distant from two encounters with his flames?
Do you all remember the intense playa energy this planetary alignment generates, and how hard it kicks us into the season of Man?
It’s coming back. Soon!
This year, it will be at Mighty in SF. It will be mighty big. The events committee that puts on SF Decom will make it happen. And it will be a fundraiser for Black Rock Arts Foundation. This year, the vision we created in 04 is all coming together!
That special night of the year our spirits named Solstinox is coming back March 3. If you don’t save the date, you must not remember…
I can’t wait to dance with your playa souls again when the planets align. Sunshine
PS: More to come when it comes.

How is your asking going? Are you receiving as many "Yes's" as you would like?
Do you have a compelling vision you keep to yourself yet yearn to express?
Are you daunted by some of the challenges that you face as you pursue your goals?
The Freedom to Ask & The Art of Asking was well received last month. People report that they are enjoying practicing the distinctions, asking more frequently and receiving more "Yes's"!
Due to popular request, this active learning program is again being offered FREE of charge on the weekend of March 24th and 25th, 10A-6P at the Arete Center. 743 Clementina @ Howard / Folom / 9th / 8th St.

April 7 - Burning Man Town Hall (actual name of event may be changing) http://burningman.com
BunnyJam07 is coming up, Saturday April 7th.
It's going to be at the Porn Palace space in SF (mission, near the metreon parking garage).
Great space, that looks really nice inside. Castle Room, Barnyard, Retro Bar Room, Jail Room, and more.
The theme is going to be: "The Hare-Itics Ball : Ye Ole Bunny Jamme" Hop with it.
We really need some fresh bunny art so it's not just the same stuff recycled from last year.
We have alot of small (as in up to 5x5 feet) spaces spread around the venue that we'd love to fill with bunny art. This is where you come in to play. Do you have an idea for an art installation, interactive art piece, performance art piece, or anything really, that you would like to bring to bunny jam?
If so, send me a message or email me at sfaaron26 [at] yahoo.com
We also need general volunteers for set up and running the party, but that doesn't take as much advanced planning.
April 14 Time to bring it and get involved!! Burning Man's Green House

Rock It Science, Prismatic Tracks, Crush Collective, and sfhousemusic.com present Tonal: Fire Engine Red
SF Location: call 888-482-9281 or 415-412-0406, or visit prismatictracks.com or sfhousemusic.com the day of for directions
$10 before midnight, $15 after
$5 discount for dressing in Fire Engine Red (at door person's discretion--make some serious effort people!)
After the epic party experience of Electric Blue we are very excited to bring you Tonal: Fire Engine Red! Get ready for the next throwdown in this series of sick new color themed parties brought to you by some of the hottest crews in the underground house scene. We are teaming up to bring you only the best in funky, floorshaking underground house music to keep you grooving until the break of dawn. Tonal parties will showcase talent flown in from out of town as well as some of your favorite local house jocks. Strap on your dancing shoes and get ready to move it!
DJ's:
DJ Miles Maeda (Ouvre, Aroma, Apt Entertainment)--Los Angeles/Chicago
Miles Maeda was one of the pioneering members of Chicago's scene in the early '90s, putting out a slew of now legendary mixtapes that inspired many a young aspiring dj. Miles has since grown to be a favorite dj of many, known for his precise mixing skills and poised presence behind the decks. Sharing a residency at Chicago's Smartbar alongside Justin Long and DJ Heather, travelling the world to share his music with everyone, and consistently putting out top notch tracks keeps Miles very busy. We are very excited to have him out for our 2nd Tonal party and can't wait to hear him lay it down! http://www.milesmaeda.com
Brown (Drop Music, Aroma, Mobile Trax)--Nottingham, UK
Nottingham based vocalist and producer, Brown is one of the key players in the new UK sound which has had a huge impact on the record bags of our favorite dj's. Featured in collaborations with Littlemen, Inland Knights, Da Sunlounge, Andrew Phelan & Origami, and Bryan Jones, Brown has put tracks out on many a hot label such as Drop, Mobile Trax, Aroma, Myna, Prismatic, and many more. Brown's debut SF appearance at Crush-o-matic last summer had everybody grooving, and we are happy to welcome him back for Round Two for another dj set featuring himself on live vocals. http://www.myspace.com/brownrecordings
Andrew Phelan and Origami (Prismatic, Drop Music, So Sound)
One of SF's fastest growing duos in both the DJ and production realms, Andrew and Origami put down some serious business. The boys tore it up at Electric Blue and will surely do so again this time. A Chicago native, Mr. Phelan brings the funk just how we like it with Origami backing him up on live bass keeping the speakers booming and your bodies moving! http://www.djandrewphelan.com
Eric Sharp (Rock It Science)
Founder of the Rock It Science crew, Eric Sharp has quickly built a name for himself with his infectious energy behind the decks and the versatility to rock any party. Eric's opening set at Electric Blue got everybody going just right. This time Eric will throw down a Fire Engine Red closing set, leaving everybody begging for more and heading for the Endup. http://www.myspace.com/ericsharp
Rob Crush (Crush Collective)
Buckle up San Francisco! Rob Crush seems to be everywhere at once, spreading the good word about some of our city's favorite parties. What you may not know about Rob is that he has secretly been honing his craft, mixing records deep within the bowels of a dj research laboratory covered by a biotechnology front. You are going to wonder why you haven't heard from Rob sooner, and we look forward to seeing him get a lot more action on the decks! http://www.myspace.com/robcrush

Really Really Free Resilience On The Greens ( ! )
The Really Really Free Market is a concept and eclectic event (occuring across the country and across oceans, and monthly in San Francisco) where participants bring objects, skills, performances, services and anything else with the intention of giving for the sake of giving.
It is a practice in community solidarity building, mutual aid, recycling, sharing resources, and caring for one another.
It is a demonstration of a fruitful alternative to the capitalist system of buying, selling, commodification, waste, exploitation and alienation.
It is a giant potluck, made up of ideas, food, music, books, skills, games and many other resources that we as a community can come together and share.
Everything is free. yes, really really free. no money, no bartering, no advertising, just free.

Legacy of Torture:
The War Against The Black Liberation Movement
The same people who tried to kill me in 1973 are the same people who are here today, trying to destroy me. I mean it literally. I mean there were people from the forces of the San Francisco Police Department who participated in harassment, torture and my interrogation in 1973 ... none of these people have ever been brought to trial. None of these people have ever been charged with anything. None of these people have ever been questioned about that. -- John Bowman, former Black Panther
In 2005 several former members of the Black Panther were held in contempt and jailed for refusing to testify before a San Francisco Grand Jury investigating a police shooting that took place in 1971. The government alleged that Black radical groups were involved in the 34-year old case in which two men armed with shotguns attacked the Ingleside Police Station resulting in the death of a police sergeant and the injuring of a civilian clerk.
In 1973, thirteen alleged "Black militants" were arrested in New Orleans, purportedly in connection with the San Francisco events. Some of them were tortured for several days by law enforcement authorities, in striking similarity to the horrors visited upon detainees in Guantánamo and Abu Ghraib.
In 1975, a Federal Court in San Francisco threw out all of the evidence obtained in New Orleans.
The two lead San Francisco Police Department investigators from over 30 years ago, along with FBI agents, have re-opened the case. Rather than submit to proceedings they felt were abusive of the law and the Constitution, five men chose to stand in contempt of court and were sent to jail. They were released when the Grand Jury term expired, but have been told by prosecutors that "it isn't over yet."

Save the Date for Solstinox - March 3, 2007
Do you all remember that one night of the year we are farthest from the Man, yet equally distant from two encounters with his flames?
Do you all remember the intense playa energy this planetary alignment generates, and how hard it kicks us into the season of Man?
It’s coming back. Soon!
This year, it will be at Mighty in SF. It will be mighty big. The events committee that puts on SF Decom will make it happen. And it will be a fundraiser for Black Rock Arts Foundation. This year, the vision we created in 04 is all coming together!
That special night of the year our spirits named Solstinox is coming back March 3. If you don’t save the date, you must not remember…
I can’t wait to dance with your playa souls again when the planets align. Sunshine
PS: More to come when it comes.

It's going to be at the Porn Palace space in SF (mission, near the metreon parking garage).
Great space, that looks really nice inside. Castle Room, Barnyard, Retro Bar Room, Jail Room, and more.
The theme is going to be: "The Hare-Itics Ball : Ye Ole Bunny Jamme" Hop with it.
We really need some fresh bunny art so it's not just the same stuff recycled from last year.
We have alot of small (as in up to 5x5 feet) spaces spread around the venue that we'd love to fill with bunny art. This is where you come in to play. Do you have an idea for an art installation, interactive art piece, performance art piece, or anything really, that you would like to bring to bunny jam?
If so, send me a message or email me at sfaaron26 [at] yahoo.com
We also need general volunteers for set up and running the party, but that doesn't take as much advanced planning.
