Hey all,
The following is the original post and a follow up message about a very kool idea by Roger. There will be a lot of fire artsist coming together at the Crucible's Fire Arts Festival (FAF)
www.thecrucible.org/calendar/faf_04.html
that are friends or at least acquaintances but live in various communities throughout California. This will be an excellent opportunity for us to hook up with our friends and have an amazing spin jam like never before.
The original thread is on the SF Bay Fire Salon tribe (see "fire fest")

I think drummers would be a very kool addition to this as well, so spread the word and let us know who's interested and how many of you will be coming from your fire & drumming groups.
peace

The Fire Arts Festival's coming up soon... I imagine there will be fire folks visiting from out of town (I KNOW there's going to be an LA contingent) and was thinking it would be cool to organize a gathering somewhere so we can hang out and spin.
1) Any suggestions for a good, discrete location? Lake Merritt might attract a bit too much attention. Maybe somewhere across the bay? Maybe someone has access to a nice private spot? I was thinking the Alameda spot, but maybe that's a bit too out-of-the-way?
2) What do y'all think would be a good time? Thursday night when the fancy-schmancy show's going on? Maybe some other night? Maybe a daytime gathering without fire?
If you think you'd come to something like this, please post a reply so I can guage interest!

Re: Fire Fest
Leave it to Orbit to come up with the fabulous networking ideas …Sounds great - I would love hangout with the LA and FAF people outside of the festival.
My friend just opened up a small warehouse space around the corner from SubLounge.. maybe she would be willing to hosting a gathering? It ’s a little too small for inside burning, maybe smaller toys? But Ro, Andy and I performed there last weekend outside the building on the sidewalk. They opened the roll-up door and the party guests looked down on us from the inside –it worked pretty well. A cop drove by while we were performing and shouted in his megaphone “just don ’t burn the place down ”and kept going. hee hee. It might be an option if were looking to do more talking/learning/spinning without fire, less but maybe some burning.
If we want to do a lot of burning and can ’t find outside private property, then I suggest the AIDS Memorial Grove/Glen in the park. It ’s pretty secure/private.. if you include the grassy area.. it can hold a lot of people.
As far as timing.. hmm …maybe Sunday night after the closing ritual …throw a celebration party - if one ’s not already happening? Who am I kidding, there's got to be a party planned already?! I like the idea of meeting during the day, but I ’m also thinking of taking some of the daytime workshops @ the FAF and don ’t want to miss out on anything.
Blessings, jaden rose
