Roller Derby and Marketing Monday

What a grand weekend we're having and still trying to stretch it out over here!  The sports were all exciting.  The Derby Dolls was so much fun and the L.A. Sparks won.  Check out the L.A. Derby Dolls!  First time ever attending live roller derby event, but will not be my last.  Healthy, inexpensive food choices.  Great big beers and wine, affable crowd and my Life Partner won the Raffle: "Black Label" Dead Poet Series special skateboard and  t-shirt (I got that) out of the millions (seemed like)  in attendance.  She's so lucky!

In the meantime, share some love today!

Cubic Zirconia- Black & Blue Official Video!

Happy Friday!

Welcome new followers.  This is my first sports-related blog, so don't be discouraged but can't stop dreaming of all the sports that will be filling my weekend--not active, mind you.  Who else has FIFA World Cup Fever?  I do.  Can't wait to see as much of the games as possible.  I would have given my eye teeth to be in South Africa right now.  The Anthems will be in rotation in Funk Sanctum soon. 

Tomorrow we are going to my-first-time-ever event women's roller derby.  That's right!  I said Women's Roller Derby!  Can I get a double woot??  Maybe some of you remember watching from your mother's knee?  One of my guilty passions as a young girl, so tomorrow will be cheering on the L.A. Derby Dolls.  It will be attending the Los Angeles Aftershockers v. Arizona Derby Dames, Sat. June 12, 2010, 1910 W. Temple St., L.A., CA.  derbydolls.com/la . . . Yeah, baby!

Sunday going to Staples Center to L.A. Sparks v. Minnesota at 12:00--will be attending and am VIP of the Sparks.  They don't need a link (wink).  And of course the Lakers v. the Smeltics later on that day! Bring it!

Meanwhile, this is definitely worth a listen . . .




Woot!

Also, Happy Friday, and again welcome all new followers.  Have you heard this yet?

Greetings,

Today's "Jewel" -- free download from dj Spooky
DJ Spooky and Chuck D (Public Enemy) -- Remix of By the Time I Get to Arizona

CLICK HERE TO LISTEN AND DOWNLOAD THE TRACK

          "In the wake of Republican Governor Jan Brewer's appalling anti-immigrant law, me and Chuck D were rappin' and we decided to put together an update of his classic track By The Time I get To Arizona. Anyone who knows about hip hop from the early 90's remembers John McCain's unwillingness to endorse creating a local version of Martin Luther King's birthday. The update here is a 21st century look in the rear view mirror. The cliché that "those who don't learn from the past are doomed to repeat it" still holds sway in our hyper amnesiac culture. I remixed D.W. Griffith's infamous film Birth of a Nation with a bit of Public Enemy in mind, and later on, they named an e.p. with the same name as my project. Me and Chuck D have done several projects in the past around progressive, non knucklehead hip hop.

          Please feel free to download this track and pass it around. We are the media. Feel free to pass it around!

          By the way, this is a mashup, and it's basically not really for sale. I just took a riff from Philly Sound (http://www.funkadelphiarecords.com/), and flipped it. The result, is what you hear here. It's free, and open. No $!!  in peace, Paul aka DJ Spooky"

I love dj Spooky.  The more famous he becomes, the more he gives!  You can meet him through this video:



Enjoy, love,
Me
