HEY YOU GUYSSSSSSSS…..
1. NEW ARTHUR OUT NEXT WEEK.
You can see the cover now at
2. YOU CAN’T WIRETAP A BAR.
Stop yelling at the TV set for a minute and come rumble, soapbox, dance, plot, smoke, drink and otherwise commiserate with the left-leaning folks from Arthur magazine, LA Record and The Journal of Aesthetics and Politics every Thursday night at the Echo Park Social(ist) and Pleasure Club in the Little Joy pub (1477 Sunset Blvd in Echo Park). Bigtime Arthur contributor Dan Chamberlin starts playing full-tilt boogie (or something) for the people tonight at 9pm. Other Arthur and LARecord people will DJ later in the evening. Dress up, it’s more fun that way.
3. SATYA SAI ISHA…
ALICE COLTRANE // Sat, Feb 18 at 8pm // Royce Hall, UCLA
Last fall 68-year-old pianist-organist-harpist-composer-spiritualist-bandleader Alice Coltrane (the widow of John Coltrane) released “Translinear Light,” her first album in 26 years. Tonight, in an _extremely_ rare public appearance, Alice will be joined by son Ravi on saxophone, Reggie Workman on bass and Jeff “Tain” Watts on drums in a world premiere performance of music from that album. Prepare for an encounter with this true avatar of Universal Consciousness. Dwight Trible and his group will open.
Tickets are $45, 35 & 25. Available online at
