Ten Duets on a theme of rescue by Cedar Lake

yet again, i found more joints online by my future babies momma Crystal Pite. Kidd Pivot was recently in Nashville performing Lost Actions so i told my good friend Mr. Chris Stuart to go check them out. He texted me that they were the most amazing thing he had ever seen in a long time and said that i should have seen the show. He told me that his jaw was agape the entire time. More importantly me being the selfish basterd that i am he said that Pite and i share the same kind of movement transitions which is the biggest compliment i heard all year.











shout out to mr. Stuart!



hola.

FUNNY as S.H.I.T.

Starting the October the S.H.I.T. Show will be celebrating their one year anniversary. Personally, these fellas have made me a believer in theatre again because I cant remember the last show in San Francisco that has made me laugh so much from start to finish.

I have a silent invlovement in this season and let me tell you without spoiling all the fun, working with these guys is the exact same thing as seeing the perform live. LMFAO! This shit is funny:P

New Thome Yorke: Feeling Pulled Apart By Horses

GO!

A couple months ago I was approached by my former classmate from NCSA currently a dancer in Company C, her name is Beth Kazmerych whom is a beautiful artist…. A lot of soul. I worked with her on a project a couple years ago with another dancer from SFB so when she asked about my involvement in a show that she and her friend are producing i could not say no. She called and spoke to me about the concept of the show of bringing artist together to collaborate and support each other, which is exactly how I enjoy working. I was impressed with all of the work that has been put into evening even though I was basically non-responsive to the emails. My plate is beyond full this fall, non-the less this is gonna be a great show so I decided to take it on anyways. There will be a handful of other choreographers and dancers from the bay so it will be cool to see what they are up to. For me working with Beth is always a treat plus she’s choreographing too! The evening will be nothing short of fantabolous so please come out in support.

A MUST READ FOR ALL INDY ACTS BY MR. TRENT REZNOR

Today as i was scouring the net and happened upon an amazing find...Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails has posted on his site a new business model for upcoming indy music acts. This is not only for the rockers, rappers, crooners or jazzers. DONT BE STUPID. Mr. Reznors model can apply to all art forms. No one knows exactly what to do in the age of new media but we can all agree that social networking/new media is the new platform for getting your product and branding across. YOU no longer have to have a whole bunch of money along with managers to get you product across as well as building a fan base. My entire career has started online and im just now getting my feet wet after 2 and a half years in the game.

PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ THIS.

OR NOT?


here is the info.

The devil and I.

The devil lured me into his layer (HOT TOPIC) with promises of being posted on his site. He fed on my own blind ambitions. Thankfully, I caught on to his demonic ways and have casted him and his site off. Now he's on Twitter so I clicked the "un follow" button.

Don’t let the smile fool you. Perez Hilton is going for global domination with his wretched taste in music and stank attitude plus he calls 15-year-old girls sluts!

Anyone grown ass man who endorses the Jonas Bros probably can do a cool little trick where their heads twist 360 degrees. Just a thought.

micromachines and dinosaurs

Ive been working hard and steady over the past 3 months. Looking forward to getting out all of these amazing ideas. Gonna stick to my motto "when the going gets tough....DONT SUCK!

Dont Suck!

My new Moto "Dont Suck" has been deemed by some to simple or easy. I dont think so. In my eyes some people need to think my moto to themselves on a dailey. ALL DAY!


Here is a great example for DONT SUCK starring the Pratts!

San Francisco Dance Center Celebrates 20 years

All dancers/ people who love dance in the Bay Area have at least once taken class at Alonzo Kings San Francisco Dance Center. Within the SF dance community everyone and their momma goes there. The dance center is a great resource for dancers of all levels to come take class in ballet, modern, hip-hop, jazz and numerous others. You can come take class early in the morning and stand next to dancers from the Lines Contemporary Ballet Company, which is pretty cool not too mention inspiring. Local and national Choreographers can rent out the studios at an affordable rate. I use the space a lot. Matter of fact I need to book space for this Sunday! Looking back on it, I found one of my new favorite dancers whom I plucked out of the Lines Training program. If you have not been to the Dance Center PLEASE check it out…. Such a great space!

Happy 20 years and look forward to more exciting years in the future!

Exposition of the Heart

SF based dancer/choreographer Folawole. Im very impressed with this man and all of his hardwork. Look forward to checking out his show and eating some cheap good food. Yeah i said it, dont lie you will be too!

World Premiere of “Exposition of the Heart” in collaboration

September 4-6, 2009 at Dance Theatre Mission

more info:

Exposition of the Heart, directed and choreographed by Folawole, is an innovative combination of dance performance, live music and visual art that seeks to raise awareness about abused and battered women by exploring themes of consciousness and rebirth. This work, which is being developed in collaboration with the Women’s Building in the Mission District of San Francisco, brings together the stories of female and male characters whose experiences are personally individual and commonly resonant. Breaking the cycle of violence will be explored through a mixture of solos, duets and unexpected group dances. The performance includes six different acts created to highlight the strengths and skills of each artist and expose the power and inner strength of all women. This performance will bridge new choreography and improvisation with masterful artists, using a warm yet innovative approach to deepening audience engagement. Exposition of the Heart is dedicated to the passing of an artist and friend, Ashley Taylor.

Outside Lands Photo essay

We rolled through to the Outside Lands last Sunday to check out Jack Whites new band Dead Weather fronted by the chick from the Kills. I got lucky and ended up in the VIPS VIP to watch M.I.A. whom had the best set of twin dancers ive ever seen.
All in all, the show was not as good as last year because how in the hell are you gonna top Radiohead? Still we had a good time so whatever. Ill be back next year.
