>Dec 27, FRI, 9:30PM [Paula Toledo & Marcus Martin]
'Paula's girlish voice combined
with its sense of rawness
and power captivates audiences. Her songs are original melodic
pop tunes with an alternative/folk
edge that speak about life seen
through her perspective and the
perspective of her story's characters.
she's a local singer/songwriter & actually
working with a local producer Marcus Martin (who accompanies
her on some of her songs and
will also be featured during the
evening) so they're kind of unofficially
a duo. And are keen to perform at
the LUGZ COFFEE. The third track
on my demo 'Stray' is a good indication
of what they sound like live without a full
band.
THIS EVENT WILL B DIGITALLY RECORDED, a POSTING OF IT WILL FOLLOW HERE.

lead electric guitar, bass, drums
and male vocals. Influencing sounds

Ben Harper and The Counting Crows. Lyrics are
about love, life, loss and God...

, their cafe/coffee shop performances
so far have been extremely well
received, and they are already
starting to draw a regular following. The appeal is to
both to younger and older
generations, certainly an act worth seeing.
Sarah Burnett: A young and talented singer, her
warm tone and wide range are
not often surpassed. Sarah has already
been singing for large audiences for
years, both for weddings and church events. She shall
be recording in Edmonton in December.
Tonay Quays: A trained musician (piano & guitar
) and songwriter, Tony has recently
stepped out into performing original music
on his own. Tony's lyrics carry

>Apr 19, FRI, 8:00PM [Interior Design]
Interior Design
Music is sound. But sound is not always music.
Some artists prefer to exist in those moments when sound becomes music_
the border where vibrations become tones and pulses, the fleeting vacuum
where clouds of sound begin to form discernible clusters of harmony.
Those are the territories where the possibilities become endless, where
prospects unfurl with gentle certainty.
This is the space where Interior Design thrives in. A one man mobile
musical entity, Interior Design specializes in ambient vistas of sound
for spaces both small and large. Its unobtrusive, but it's there
nevertheless- the ideal background for meaningful interaction,
conversation, and contemplation.

Perpetual Dream Theory
Everyday you get up and go to work. Or you get up and go to class. Or maybe you
don't get up at all. Whatever you do, it doesn't take long before you find that
your life has become unbearably mundane and predictable. People are boring. You
are boring. Everyday is the same as the last. And then one day something
happens. Everything begins to feel different, although you are sure nothing has
changed on the outside. (This usually occurs after that unecessary sixth cup of
coffee.) The people in your life look different -- more like wild animals than
humans. You swear the events in your life have happened before, but you can't
pinpoint exactly when they took place. It is as if you are living in a dream...
in fact, for once your dreams make more sense than your waking-life. You're not
sure whether you like this world more than the one you are used to; you're not
even sure if the world you knew even existed. You wander the streets, aware of
every sound, every movement. You sit at your desk and marvel at the absurdity
of a keyboard, of a picture frame, of a ball-point pen. You take a deep breath;
the world around you dissolves. You have entered the uncharted realm of
perpetual dreams.

>JAN 12, 2003, 8:00PM [Teen Angst Poetry]
Here's my definition: it's the poetry one wrote between the ages
of 12-18 (or later) when one is depressed or hurt and it is an outlet for the most
"profound" thoughts (or you thought so at the time- like "yes this explains everything I mean to say").
Most often it has horrible rhyming schemes and very obvious metaphors. Common themes are :
I am alone, No one understands my pain, I will never love again, fuck you, fuck off,
go to hell, and life sucks. EVENT SCHEDULE: The whole evening usualy takes about an hour
to an hour and a half depending on how many poets there are. Now the reading usually
goes something like this: I get up talk about what is teen angst poetry, then
read some of my own, people laugh, then the next performer gets up, more laughs etc.

Hey!!! Thank you lots and lots for giving me the opportunity to
perform at your cafe! I can't wait! I'd want to do this sometime in early January,
if possible. My set will be about 40 minutes long, and prices are very negotiable.
Someone mentioned something about a poster when I phoned the other day; I'm
sorry to bring this up now, but I don't have the tools to make a poster!!!
(It depends on what kind of poster you are asking for). Anyway, hope to hear
from you soon, and again, thanks a million for the gig! In case you decide
to announce future events, please use my stage name, which is 'Jagged'. Hope
to hear from you soon! :)
'Jagged's music is a mix of electronica and rock, with some early 90s grunge
influences. He has recorded 2 full-length CDs and is currently working on
his 3rd. His performance at the Starry Dynamo Cafe will be his first solo one,

in a hip singer-songwriter at the Starry.... "this is your captain speaking,
we seem to be encountering some strong turbulence. Please fasten your
seat-belts and begin flapping your arms about like a mad chicken trying to
escape the farm.."
