Organic Poetry and music hosted by Cleopache. This month is an extra special event with lots of travelers visiting to share their findings from afar:
BIO TOUR 2003 "The Bio tour is a national public awareness campaign, lead by DJ's, musicians and performers to highlight alternatives to America's fossil fuel addiction. We are traversing the United States this summer in a vegetable oil-powered bus, with a solar powered sound system, teaching people how to use vegetable oil for fuel, hosting workshops, distributing information and organizing dance parties in support of clean, renewable, peaceful energy.
2 Bands: Jackson and Retro Specto. Stephan Smith and DJ Chrome are barreling all the way from Texas to have you dancing all night long!

DJ Chrome co-founded NYC's longest running pirate radio station, Steal This Radio.

"Organic Poetry" is a monthly improv jam by poets & musicians alike that seek out those creative sessions. It is a co-collaborative forum for those fresh poets new-to-the-scene, as well as veteran wordsmiths, that have personal goals to build out their own performance poetry style. This event is especially for talented musicians that crave opportunities to jam with performance poets. They are out there !
