Scorchin Night of Reggae April 27, 2007
Berkeley, California 94704
NATIVE ELEMENTS
San Francisco's reggae favorite Native Elements (now in their 10th year as a cohesive unit) never fail to bring postivity and niceness to all of their music gatherings. As recording artist's they spin a curious fabric of luvers rock, roots and conscious dancehall wrapped cozily in a bright "frisco-pino" treatment. A family before anything else Native Elements strives to make their show a warm and inviting experience for all; young and old, red gold and green and everything in between.

BINGHI GHOST. Hailing from a little island in the Caribbean called St. Croix, Binghi Ghost was raised with all the ingredients to make him a reggae force to be reckoned with. The culture of the island and the direct linkage to old, West African customs and cultures, has given Mr. Ghost all the tools he needs to go in a straight line with his music, as he likes to say..."forward ever, backward never". Plus, he is an individual who truly feels the music and lets it envelop him in its pulsing rhythms and melodies.

So don't fuck with kids, sure, but I just wanted to pitch this, and if I come off a nutter please blame the $3.99 wine at Andronico's...but imagine this: A couple dozen santas (or, er, 15, with 31 watching, and personally I think 31 people showing up to watch 15 drunken santas is almost more interesting than the santas themselves) appear in the santa-area of the mall and set up shop (folding chairs, mini-christmas trees, etc) to COMPETE with the mall (read: Underpaid, about to commit homicide at any moment) santa: Zombie santa, Hannukah santa, anti-globalization santa, The Government Is Trying To Kill Me Because I Know THE TRUTH About The Alien Conspiracy Being Perpetrated By Ronald Reagans Immortal & Superintelligent Genitals Santa, etc.
Gimmicky and vague, but I guess I'd just love to do something that would give kids a kick...I saw a stat somewhere that only 40% of children want to sit on santa's lap; go to any mall and watch the line and you'll see that a lot of the lil un's are bored out of their minds, and that's certainly what I remembered: Why do I have to sit on the lap of some poor sap in a costume so a picture can be taken? Why am I telling him what I want for Christmas when both he and I (or at least I, and I hope very much he) know that he has no control over the swag I receive? Why can't something INTERESTING happen? Anything near kids (or perhaps anything that monkeywrenches sacred mall rituals) is iffy, but I had to put it out there.

What about us bad santas that can't get it up before noon? Any chance for an afternoon rendezvous? (Zeitgeist again at 3 or 4:00??)
disrupsean
to f.l.d.: no set meeting place/time in the afternoon. if you want a less anarchic gathering go to the mall. otherwise, meet us 11:30 or earlier, or get the mobile phone # of a friend who's going
(f.l.d. you're really working hard at being lazy.. we already answered you on tribe. now run and get me a scotch on the rocks.)
disrupsean
and yes its in the a.m. cheers!
fizzyliftingdrink
to c.b.: thanks.
(c.b. yeah, I guess it's more of an early-morning-lazy thing than a general-lazy thing. I'll see you Saturday w/ my penance in a glass for your imbibing enjoyment.)
disrupsean
