Guest GAIALAU Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 War and Peace, Chapter 1 is ON for tomorrow, Monday March 17th, 10pm-4am! at Flamingo East, a two story club at 219 Second Avenue between 13th and 14th, 21+. We have two different rooms/great sound systems for a free party with 2 strains of trance and other music. We have so far 8 DJs, Ben Light-o-matic doing intelligent lighting for the War Room, Israelis, Russians, Atmic Juice doing projections, and artists for the War area and the Peace areas. We need everyone to come out and show their support for however they feel about war in Iraq. This is a free party but there will be donation buckets to help defray my costs. If this works out we will do it as long as the war effort continues. So please, everyone, please come help us make this "winning" concept a reality. It's St Patrick's Day, the day the US may strike Iraq, and Purim, the Israeli halloween, so there should be an insane crowd. The official flyer is going out tonight. If you want to get involved in any way call me at home tonight 718-686-2753 or tomorrow at 646-752-5456. Some ideas: Peace Train Station upstairs, with melodic trance, Beatles, 60s music, antiwar music, incense, chai, candel vigil, peace signs, shamanistas, drums, flowers, belly dancers, indian tapestries, guitars, amiley faces, particpatory art, petitions, Michael Brownstein reading from World on Fire. The War Room downstairs will have Dark Soho, Parasense, har guitar trance, techno, hardcore, punk rock, subtle chaos, projections of war footage, intelligent lighting, alcohol, omstikas, a fluoro Amerikan flag, miltary garb, water guns, smells of airplane glue, bondage gear, whips, chains, cigarette smoke, and vodka. I already have 15 people working for this, and we need everyone to come together to really make it happen. If we get enough people - 150-200 - we will do this every three weeks. So don't stay home on this most important of days! Tell everyone you know, fwd this email to the world. Flyer out tonight. Quote
Guest .:::EP Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 This is a sick way of thinking dude. So you're doing a party that support war and even associate bands with war in the "war room"? And then you also make a "peace room". In my mind you just do this to be different ! But the idea dies in my opinion when you start to blend the 2 sides with eachother... War is never good as of peace will always be good.... I just hope that whoever play in the "war room" will protest loud and clear to this sick way of partying.... And if USA win the war then what? A party filled with American flags? Very sick in my opinion. Why at all make a party associated with war and peace? What is your intention with this manifest? Quote
Guest .:::EP Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 btw I don't see the start of the war as "one of the most important days". I think it's one of the worse days! Quote

Guest mescalinium Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 man, you europeans have no sense of humor! go to Jeff's (Machinelf) website, www.brainmachines.com to get a better feel for his "style" obviously, most of the people attending will be very much in the anti-war camp (yes, even in America!). nonetheless, i think part of the idea behind this party is to be able to express one's ideas about the war, whatever they may be, in an open forum. more importantly however, many of us (myself included) have been out on the streets protesting this ridiculous conflict, but alas, it seems our efforts have not swayed the elites who are in charge. so why not go to a goa party, one that sounds cool to my ears, and try to have a good time in spite of what's going on? whatever happened to good old-fashioned, hedonistic escapism?

Guest .:::EP Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 Humor? well then you yanks have a very weird sense of humor !!! Is war and a "war room" with army things a good sense of humor? I think not...... but I am very curious to find out how many people will be in that room..according to all polls it should be 68% of the american people... let me know ! Quote
Guest Infinite Sun Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 http://www.brainmachines.com/WarandPeaceChapter1.html check out the e-flyer for the party, i'll be in the peace room helping out if anyone wants to debate in person. Quote
Guest jonathan Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 U guys need to make 3 rooms: 1 war room 1 peace room 1 war room only with UN approval. sounds like a pretty fucked up party, I would probably check it out if I lived whereever the party is being thrown (I'm assuming NY) Quote
Guest psyfi Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 if no city is mentioned, one can assume that it is NYC Quote
Guest jonathan Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 fucking arrogant New Yorkers. Every other place in the world is just a village for them. Quote
Guest Setsuko Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 sounds like a silly project to me ... a fluoro american flag ... even worse . GET A LIFE !!!! Quote
