Dunn" Subject: NEC: Artists Against War benefit concert I'm now involved in the "Artists Against War" coalition -- we're having a benefit concert this Sunday in Toronto to raise funds for an AAW conference in November. The deets (notice Paul is quoted in this... hehe) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sunday, August 10 Artists Against War Benefit featuring Alun Piggins & the Quitters, the Stephen Stanley Band, Great Lakes Swimmers, and Su Alexanian Doors Open 8 pm Show @ 9 pm Admission $10. For info contact 416-532-8176 or artists_against_war@yahoo.ca. An evening of incredible music for a great cause is brought to you by Artists Against War. Featuring some of the finest roots rock9n9roll, and folk of the Canadian indie music scene. One night only at Lula Lounge. Rock out with the coalition that organized the One Big No Festival at Nathan Phillips Square in April. OBN drew an estimated 20,000 people to oppose the war on Iraq through art, music and performance. It was the largest political arts event in the city in two decades. And the struggle continues with this unique musical evening at Lula Lounge. Have a great night out and take a stand against war and occupation. The Stephen Stanley Band: Stephen9s biggest splash is as a co-founder of the Lowest of the Low where he shone as guitarist and songwriter. He9s recently released his own album of songs, That Thin, Wild Mercury and has been in the studio recording a new Low album. Alun Piggins: Formerly of the early-90s "Ontario rock9n9roll machine" The Morganfields, Piggins has his own distinctly clear, balladic sound. According to Exclaim Magazine, Piggins "has a knack for powerful and intense songs that could pass as anthems in the hands of someone less subtle." Great Lakes Swimmers: The GLS recently released their debut album to critical acclaim with the Toronto Star describing the self-titled release as "an early candidate for the year's most subtly intoxicating album." Eye Magazine gave four-and-a-half stars to GLS9 * ] [ WWW: http://www.aquezada.com/staff/julian/ * PGP: 0xFDC205B9 ] [ "sometimes you win, sometimes you lose / and most times ] [ you choose between the two" - carole king, "sweet seasons" ] ------------------------------ End of headline-girl-digest V6 #138 ***********************************
