Camp TLC:
'via Blog this'
TLC are friends of my buddies DoArt Foundation. As you will read, they are in the planning stages but this is such a great program at this time of destruction and devastation that the people of the NY Tri-State metro area has never seen. To try to create a healing arts space, especially for kids, is an excellent idea. Young people in particular will bear the brunt of this trama. Things that can provide some comfort and restore the belief in safety is as important as getting them back into a a safe and secure home, back to school and eventually returning to daily routines. Please keep TLC bookmarked and help them however you can. We are all "Together Living A Challenge".
Peace.
We are all members of The Tribe

We hit the ground running and quickly nested inside the Liberty
Theater on 42nd Street in Times Square, right in
the heart of‘Broadway’, WOW! After days of rehearsals, costume
detailing, lights, sound and tech we launched opening night with a BANG.
The venue was at SOLD OUT capacity all night, a full house of revelers
and party seekers. The door reported that they turned away over a thousand
amazingly dressed people who
decided to take a chance on last minute door tickets
rather then getting them in advance. But for those that made
it inside, it was a blast! We saw a lot of friends from the West
Coast,
thank you to all of you that made the journey!

Then we got the news that Hurricane Sandy was making her way to the
East Coast. Just a mere two days after our opening night the devastating
storm touched down. It was the largest Atlantic hurricane on record,
as well as the second-costliest Atlantic hurricane in history. The
city fell silent; the trains, subways and buses came to a halt and much
of Manhattan and the surrounding
cities fell into darkness.

We had our second show at the theater the following Saturday and though
the room filled with beautiful souls excited to feel some joy and playfulness
in all the darkness, we definitely felt the effects of the storm that
night. There was a good turn out of people ready to stretch their
restless limbs again but there was also a feeling of sadness for those
still affected by the storm.
After all that, this Wednesday brought in the Nor’easter, New York’s
first snow storm of the season…Mother Nature just keeps on working overtime
it seems… hundreds of thousands of people are still without power as the
temperatures continue to drop.

This Saturday as we go into week three we find ourselves, more then ever, wanting to give what we can to the relief efforts that surround us. This Saturday the Liberty Theater in conjunction with Lucent will be having a coat, blanket and food drive fundraiser for the victims attempting to put their lives and homes back in order. We will dedicate this weekend and a portion of profits to this effort. Please come join us, bring coats, blankets and food to donate to the needy.
We will be waiting for you…
you can get advanced tickets to our event HERE
 Shine on,

How the NY tribe rolls
As news started coming out from the 5 boroughs via social networks, I caught the "Dumbo" section of Brooklyn mentioned but as my internet access was on my phone which I was having to charge in my car or by draining what was left of the battery on my laptop, I couldn't do any further research to learn more. I've known about Galapagos for a couple of years now thanks to a fellow blogger, "Arjan Writes". I was generally concerned for the club as they are new and are offering a great arts space.
Well, my concerns were addressed in an email from Galapagos yesterday. They had indeed sustained serious flooding from Sandy. Furniture was afloat and stage pieces were under water.
But....
But...
Neighbors and friends came to their rescue and the show will go on. If you're in the area, want some place warm, bright and friendly to come together with fellow Sandy survivors, swing by Galapagos.
