The 507 Effect

Big Thanks to Moe’s Alley for a great show on Tue. night!  Much love to Junior Boogie, and all of our friends who came out on a cold and rainy Tuesday to help make this a special event.  This was our first time back at Moe’s in 3 years, and it was an amazing show.  Russell sat in on keyboard and the sound was mixed excellent.  ClayChollar of Constant Creations Studio added amazing visuals with his live graphic art.  If anyone has any pictures of the show, please email them to me at theomegaproject@onebox.com .

Happy 15th birthday to WAMM and much love to everyone who came out to the 420 celebration!  This was a great event and I am beginning to  realize how amazing Santa Cruz is!  Mike and Valerie Coral didn’t need to dress up, because they are SuperHeros.  Below is Valeries response to the UCSC 420 Lockdown…

Valerie Leveroni Corral’s 
Opinion of The UCSC 420 Lockdown

UCSC’s 420 lockdown is not about 420. It is an aggressive action against peaceful assembly. Students vote. In Santa Cruz county more that a decade ago medical marijuana passed by 71% and last year marijuana was declared the lowest priority of the law. UCSC, take a breath!

Among the responsibilities of every institution of higher education, including UCSC is: to uphold the constitution, to protect the rights of each student, not to violate them, and to provide public access to citizens of our community whose taxes support UCSC.

Ask yourself, should UCSC be denying the right to peacefully assemble? When 4000 people assemble in support of a common interest this community takes note. The university seeks to create chaos out of peaceful assembly. Shame on you! We thought we taught our elders better! See: The First Amendment of the Constitution.

We welcome everyone (including all people turned away from UCSC) to our free party to celebrate WAMM’s Quinceñera — 15 years of serving each other with medical marijuana. DIY 4/20 at 4:20pm. Join the revolution of consciousness with us. The Free DIY party begins in the parking lot behind Pearl Alley at Lincoln and Cedar and features: Omega Project, Genea Gjaguar, Clown Burlesque, Radical Cheerleaders, Lisa Dewey, Kinetica, Ariginal and Las Palamitas. Simultaneously for those 21 or over with a valid ID our beloved Club Dakota is donating all proceeds from the door to WAMM and DJ A.D. will be spinning Motown. This event is proudly sponsored by the Santa Cruz Dyke March. Dress as your favorite Superhero/Villian. Peace Santa Cruz.

Big thanks to Radical Russ, Cannabis Karri, and NORML for the interview on April 10Th’s Daily Audio Stash. And for including us in the Weekend Music Stash. It was Carlos’ 27TH birthday and everything went great. The conversation danced around the absurdity of the War on (some) Drugs. Allow me to recap: Over 800,000 arrests each year for marijuana. Over 700,000 of those are for possession only. 5 states spend more money on corrections then education. 60% of prisoners are incarcerated for drugs. 3 strikes law means 3 felonies = natural life!!! 5000 years of recorded cannabis use and not 1 recorded overdose. Global Warming, resource wars, pharmaceutical companies shoving pills down our throats, Its time to legalize cannabis for medical, recreation, and industry. END THE WAR ON (some) DRUGS!! Set the Captives Free! Cannabem liberemus! Hear them both: April 10Th’s Daily Audio Stash Weekend Music Stash

Thanks to everyone who came out to The Atrium in The Catalyst! That was our first show there are and about 100 people heard us play. Semi-Large and with large gaps (the doors and the stairs), the sound and energy seemed to gust out of the room. The Atrium is interesting because they don’t run the whole band through a PA, so the mix, consisting of 2 vocal mics, 1 kick mic, and Patience and my amps, was muddy. But that added to the style that developed over the set, and we locked in to places we haven’t went live before. Much love to The Atrium’s soundguy Kyle. BIG UPS as always to WeareCAgrown.com

Thanks to everyone who came out to party with us at Don Quixotes last Wed.! It was a smokin hot show and there was a great turn out. BIG UPS to Clay Chollar of constantcreations.org who airbrushed live during the second set. Also, thanks to Wild Bill who showed his work and donated a piece to the auction. The acoustic set was sweet, Patience and I are really enjoying working with such great sound equipment and such talented sound people. (Thanks to Lake Barnett! - Don Quixote’s great sound guy) This was only our second show with Frank, and at the last one we had Russell on keys. So this was the first time that we played out together, the distance that we have covered in two shows amazes me, and each time I play with Frank we find our voice more and more. %10 of the proceeds went to The Marijuana Policy Project. MPP.org If anyone has any good pictures of the show please contact me @ theomegaproject@onebox.com .

Thanks to Wild Bill for the pictures!
