please sign up, more information about the list is below.

----
*Subject*: Town Hall Meeting: A Call to Arms for all Los Angeles Based Fire
Artists

*Where*: Smash Labs, 1714 Albion St, Los Angeles, CA 90031 323-227-6274

*When*: Doors open at 7pm Meeting begins at 8pm

*Who*: All members of the Los Angeles Based Fire Arts Community

*Why*: During recent interactions with Los Angeles County and State _Fire
Marshalls <http://www.film.ca.gov/LocationResources/FilmSafety.html>_we have
learned that they are in the process of designing a set of safety standards
and guidelines in an effort to standardize safety requirements within our
industry. These safety guidelines are to be implemented in the first
quarter of 2008.

We have the great fortune that our local county Fire Marshalls have
offered to allow us participate in the design of these standards.
Organizations such as the Safety Advisory for Fire and FX in Entertainment
(SAFFE)and members of the Pyrotechnics community have offered to provide
guidance or advice in the different methods of organizing ourselves and
interfacing with regulatory and enforcement entities such as the Fire
Department.

This *_Wednesday, December 12, 2007_* a Town Hall Meeting has been called to
inform the community and discuss the formation an organization comprised of
members representing the interests of the Los Angeles fire community.

******It is time for us all to come together, as a community - to openly
create our own guidelines that address issues, such as safety, performance
standards, etc. It is of the utmost importance that we collectively decide
this before it is decided for us*****

In Addition, there is a new e-mail discussion list for
fire artists and people who are interested in fire performance in the Los
Angeles area. This list can be joined by following this link:

http://www.curiousjosh.com/lafire

This list is an opportunity for us to stay in touch as a community, and
discuss a number of pressing issues that are affecting the Los Angeles fire
community such as the upcoming implementation of safety regulations,
standards, and restrictions governing our industry.

The LA Fire mailing list will be a great place to:
discuss issues affecting the fire community
share fire related tips and techniques
communicate about fire events in the LA area
and more

Please spread the word by continuing to forward this to fire performers who
are in Los Angeles, or who visit Los Angeles and perform with fire. If we
fail in this initiative then viewpoints such as "Poi is the most dangerous
tool in your arsenal" or the potential banning of poi spinning in the
direction of the audience may become a reality.

Troupes & Tool Manufacturers that have involvement in this initiative have
included: CuriousJosh, Fire Drums, Fire Groove, Los Angeles Fire Effects (LAFX),
Machina
Candeo, Mutaytor, Phoenix Projekt, Pyrophernalia / Om Fire, Sirena
Serpentina, Trick Concepts, & Volcano Flux.

push down on the lever to enter)
The "back" door is a big roll door in the last parking lot on the North side
of Main just before the train tracks - look for the La Mano Press sign. If
it's full, there is an empty lot directly across the street on the South
side of Main Street, or feel free to park on Main or Albion and come in the
front. *main thing to remember is if you've gone over the tracks, you've
passed Albion which is a TINY street and easy to miss.

case anyone gets lost.

DROP JIMMY AN EMAIL AND A CHECK IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN JOINING. DEETS BELOW.

MUCH LOVE,
KEVIN

----------------------------------

Host: James Slazas (slazas@yahoo.com)
Location: East 3RD Steakhouse
734 East 3RD Street, Los Angeles, CA View Map
When: Saturday, February 3, 8:00pm
Phone: 213 680 3003
Cost: $35 per person

Friends,

We have a special culinary/celebrity crossover in space and time. Our beloved Mr. Jimmy Slazas has organized an evening of delicious downtown dinning, drinking and dancing at a beautiful new spot known as EAST 3RD STEAKHOUSE. Jimmy is a wonderful friend to the ever hospitable owner, Jason Ha, and together they wish to welcome us all for an evening of culinary delights while the restaurant continues in its "soft opening". Jason has been feeding the hungry artists of downtown for quite some time now, and he has always been a generous supporter of the local creative energy. His restaurant is beautifully modern, yet warm and inviting. The food is a wonderful fusion of Korean, Japanese and traditional American cooking. And dont let the name fool you, whether you enjoy the carnivorous side of life or you choose tofu as your steak of choice, all will enjoy the menu in this exciting new space downtown in the arts district.

Now.... the fascinating side story to the entire evening is that the location, restaurant title and date all contain the number "3". A combination of three "3's" in an evening such as this guarantees each patron tremendous luck for a period of 24 hours and some form of out-of-body experience with Morgan Fairchild. Yes, I did say it, Morgan Fairchild was born on this very day, February 3, 1950. So, come one, come all as we gather with the finest of friends and foods to honor the opening of a unique restaurant and the 57th birthday of one truly sexy celebrity.

So here is what is being served up on platter for you:

An incredible prix fixe menu offering 5 courses

Your choice of a carnivorous or vegetarian menu

One bottle of wine or soju for a 4 person table

And as if you didn't just grab your fork already, DJ's Caparro and Wiseacre will be center stage dishing out oh-so-belly-feel-good beats all night.

The cost is $ 35 per person.

All dinners will be served family style at tables of 4-6. Seating will be from 8:00 to 10:00. For those who wish to attend but not dine, you are welcome to arrive for the late night cocktail party beginning at 11:00 where Morgan will be dancing her birthday away with the creative adventurer John Davis!

PAYMENT/RESERVATIONS MUST BE MADE BY THURSDAY FEBRUARY 1st PLEASE SEND A CHECK TO:

James Slazas
17011 Beach Blvd, Suite 900
Huntington Beach, CA 92647

Tip/service from your rock star servers is not included.

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO INVITE ALL FOODIES AND FRIENDS; WE ARE LIMITED TO 150

SOULICIOUS: THE FINAL TRANSMISSION of 2006

2006-12-22T21:58:12Z

Soul Crew Number One,

First off, Happy Holidays y'all. And secondly, when i look back on 2006 only one word comes to mind: "damnmuthafuckaswhatthehellwasthatcanigetanother"! I'm totally overwhelmed when i think of the year this group of peeps created together. Brilliant and alive. Gorgeous and stellar. We are truly blessed to have what we have in this family of friends spanning the country from New York to Los Angeles, San Francisco to Philly. So from me to you, thanks a ton for your energies and goodness in 2006.

A few SOULICIOUS '06 manifestations worth mentioning:
• Our fund raisers and collective hard work raised camp, raised the Hopium Den and raised the vibes on the playa.
• Abby Girvin becomes Mrs. Stephen Clark in the most entertaining wedding of all time (complete with custom MuffHeadz hats and magic brownies for the entire family.)
• Ashram and Soulicious play nice together in the world's greatest sandbox.
• Joseph Bertot Perez lands his first major motion picture, acting on screen with Mr. Tommy Lee Jones.
• East meets West meets North meets South. The soul crew becomes a national love puddle.
• Caparro and Braden lay it down at the SOULICIOUS holiday party. Props to Andrew for opening his home.
• The Philadelphia Experiment is in the House! Welcome Lee Mayjahs, Rafael and Marques!
• The SOULICIOUS decom at the Standard Hotel was beautiful.
• Debi Mae's bowling B-Day rocks it hard.
• Wiseacre brings the love to the 212 crew at a few choice spots.
• We've heard on many occasions from complete strangers "who are you people?", complete with a hug.
• Juan Carlos still wears his "Thursday" shirt on thursdays. Sometimes on fridays too.
• There's gotta be a ton more, feel free to chime in..

Bruce, Dale and I are off for our excursions in Asia. We'll be celebrating Christmas, New Year's and Dale's B-day Bash in Singapore, Vietnam, Malaysia and Thailand. Also scouting for new playa gear for both camps (maybe we'll bring back a 4-story tall Buddha for our BRC landmark.) On the return trip, I'm flying from Bangkok to Baja for dennis' big weekend. Nothing solves the jetlag problem like a bachelor party in Mexico with 2 houses on the beach. Alright amigos, see you in the new year, sometime in late Jan.

Hello 2007.

Mad love,
Kevin

SOULICIOUS
