Live for Today

I just found a piece of old writing of mine in which the final lines were:

"Panties down. Live for today."

That saying is now posted in large letters on my wall for maximum daily reflection.

So Sweet: Now on YouTube!

Dryers

Dryers help protect the environment. They save trees from being used for paper towels. They eliminate paper towel waste. They are more sanitary to use than paper and help maintain cleaner facilities.

Calling All Idealists!

I love this organization! Please join and let's *@!* up the world in a good way. :-)

Launching This Week: A Global Network of Idealists - at Idealist.org

It’s time to build a global network that will serve and support all those people who want to make the world a better place, online and in person.

This is the idea that has always grounded and fueled our work. We believe that all over the world people and communities face three common challenges:

* There is often a big gap between our good intentions and our actions.
* Our problems are connected, but we are not.
* The world is full of good ideas that don't spread quickly enough.

What we need, then, is a network, a movement, an ecosystem that will:

* Make it easier for people and organizations to move from intentions to action.
* Connect people, organizations, and resources in every possible way.
* Find good ideas wherever they are, and distribute them as widely as possible.

If we can do this, and do it well, most of our local and global challenges will be easier to deal with.

At http://ping.fm/0IzIs you can read the vision behind this in more detail; follow along on our Imagine, Connect, Act blog; and sign up to help us get started.

Will you join us?

New Video: So Sweet, Indeed

Check it out!!!

Director DJ Mendel from New York just made us a video for our tune "So Sweet" off the new Evangenitals EP (now availalble on iTunes, CDBaby, etc)

We met DJ in Scotland while at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. He directed Cynthia Hopkins' "Accidental Nostalgia" (featuring the band Gloria Deluxe) and the cast and crew of that show made appearances at several Evangenitals gigs. In fact, their fiddle player Philippa Thompson even sat in with us on violin and harmonies at our last show! Glorious deluxe, indeed!!!

It was a love fest, indeed, and the lovin' continues with this cyber-collaborative video.

Please take a look and leave a comment!!! Post, share, etc. Spread the love! :-)

TONIGHT at the TRIP in Santa Monica

On Thursday November 5th the Evangenitals are taking a pilgrimage to the West Side for a family affair funk & junk shaking evening with our good friends Cousin Junebug at THE TRIP in Santa Monica.

This is a cool club with a really nice promoter who is trying to create something lovely over in Santa Monica, so please come out and sing, dance, and support the great night of music!

Opening the night is CHARLIE CHENEY -- Pirate Superhero Citizen Adventurer -- on a wild Amtrak tour Michigan and he's stopping in to play for YOU. Rumor hasn't it that Juli Crockett of the Evangenitals is gonna duet with him too. Oooooh! Let's duet!

Then the Evangenitals will make love to your ear holes, and then Cousin Junebug wil funk you up. And then the Catch and Waves will funk, fusion, freestyle you into oblivion.

All for just $5.

Julio's Dad was born in Alabama to a family of Lunatics.

Dad was hit by two cars in the same day and had a staple shot into his head. He wrote a book on the history of Alabama, became a history professor, and had affairs with his students. He won 2nd place on Jeopardy but was unable to claim his prize because he hadn't paid child support since the divorce. Dad had an awful temper and would often be sent to his room, by Mom. Mom would make us put ice in his pants to calm him down. He once made scrambled eggs with sugar in them and threw them against the wall. He hid the household bills in shoeboxes that he kept in the closet and recorded porn movies at the end of our cartoon tapes. He tried to make me eat orange peels and hot dogs with peanut butter and cheese because "it all went to the same place anyway." Dad got born-again and wrote a 3000 page novel on the sex life of Jesus Christ. He married a Norweigian woman he met on a cruise ship and moved to Puyallup, Washington where they ran a tuxedo rental business. They would not loan my brother a tuxedo for prom. The new wife fell off a horse, hit her head and went insane. Dad heard Jesus telling him what numbers to play in Vegas. He developed cancer of the lymph nodes and died, right around Christmas time.
