We're about to see a Progressive Arts Tragedy occur. But we can yet
avert it.
I got a call yesterday for the New York NLG that Reverend Billy and the
Church of Stop Shopping will be HERE IN TOWN on Sunday 12/11, at
Sabathani (310 E 38th St, Minneapolis) from 2 PM - 3:30. They will be
here with Morgan Spurlock (Supersize Me) for both a fantastic show AND
a fantastic direct action thereafter of potentially legendary
proportions. The audience will be invited to participate but that's
all I'm at liberty to say at the moment.
However, there's a problem. I was on the phone with Billy Talen this
morning and found out that the person handling local publicity has
really botched. Very few people know that he's coming. It's
late-late-late, but I'm trying to help get the word out through the
best Progressive medium
- grass-roots word of mouth! (And yes, I've sent them off to KFAI and
other venues, which I CAN'T BELIEVE weren't told a thing...)
So, I would hope that all you folks would join the fun, with very
little effort, by -
- Spreading the word about the performance on your various email lists
and listservs, and
- Coming to the performance (they SO kick butt!!!) on Sunday afternoon
and considering joining what promises to be a terrific
anti-corporate/anti- consumerism demo (and yes, the Guild will be there
with observers) complete with chauffer service to the location from
Sabathani.
This could be the most fun holiday event this year, so I do hope that
you can make it and that you let others know! I will try to get more
and better info out to more folks later. Their website is
www.revbilly.com.
