    ART EXHIBIT LISTING

    Well of course I am going to wish you a Happy Healthy 2004! Read the latest posts to see what is happening!

    I worked (a little) harder during the holidays, hope all your packages were delivered in one piece? Even though I was still in town and paying rent at "the Barracks" I was kind of on a vacation: For about two weeks I had my own house, dog and front yard; I just needed to take in the mail, water the plants, write phone messages... YES, I house sat for friends while they were in Japan (Brrr!). GOT HOUSE? 2004 is NOT booked just yet!

    I've been doing ALOT of pondering lately (the latest is in print in the VIEW Newspaper, See LB WEEKLY) and I am REALLY thinking there are things we can do to help make LONG BEACH a safer, better place to live. (I better stop here before I go into a tangent, but I reserve the right to RANT!) If YOU have ideas to share, I'm all ears... and of course I'm looking to hear New Music as well!

    This brings me to remind you that TPSradio is now on KBEACH.org every FRIDAY NIGHT beginning January 9, 2004. THE PRIME SPOT Special Guest will be DOC ANELLO - visit his site to hear his awesome music before our interview: DOCANELLO.com and also CEXTONRECORDS.com In FEBRUARY I plan on SPOTlighting "Creative Couples", so if you know of any (or are 1/2 of one), send me an email at theprimespot@aol.com

    What are YOUR New Year's Resolutions?

    I've got some New Year's Resolutions to deal with: 1). Budgeting my money better 2). Staying "100% Natural" (I just declawed myself, call me "nubs", I can no longer afford the luxury of acrylic nails) 3). Taking better care of myself, maybe indulging a little more in vegetarian foods (mad cow is mad for a reason). I have discontinued THE PRIME SPOT Open Mics which will free up some of my time, and changed TPSradio so I no longer have to take a vacation day from work to play you the BEST OF LONG BEACH Music!

    Before I close, I want to relay an important message from SHELLEY RUGGTHORP on behalf of KOOS.org, a local, BRAND NEW "All Ages" venue in LONG BEACH's East Village Arts District. I was hoping to see bands like www.RILYN.com and www.OFFTOPICTHEBAND.com play at KOOS; where else are two 12 year olds and a 14 year old going to play?!! Certainly not a bar. Put Tuesday, Jnaury 6th on your Calendars if you care. This email is also posted under Subj Heading KOOS NEEDS YOUR HELP... Ciao4Now, KaRi


    Dear Koo's Supporters,

    We need your help!

    Koo's has been called to a public hearing at Long Beach City Hall regarding the issuance of an entertainment license that would allow them to have live music performances in their location at 540 E. Broadway in Downtown Long Beach.

    Due to erroneous misinformation that has been reported to the City of Long Beach by members of the vice police department, the entertainment license that Koo's was granted back in July 2003 is facing the possibility of being denied.

    It is important to the fiscal health of Koo's that they be allowed to continue to hold evening all-ages music performances, as this provides a steady source of revenue to cover the costs of keeping their doors open.

    That said, it is important to note that Koo's is much more than a music venue. Koo's is an art center that is home to visual art exhibitions, plays, workshops, and any number of programs that local artists (visual or performing) may propose. It provides a location where artists of all disciplines can come together for a sense of community.

    So, please join us at the City Council Meeting on Tuesday, January 6 at 5:00 p.m.

    Critical Mass! We want to fill the chambers with as many bodies as possible to visibly represent to the City Council the kind of support Koo's has from the community. We need artists, musicians, actors, dancers, business persons, neighbors, kids, parents and grandparents to show up at the meeting and create a presence.

    Parking at the Long Beach City Hall parking structure:

    From the 710 S., take the Broadway exit, continue on Broadway a few blocks and pull into the entrance on the right, just past Chestnut and just before Cedar.

    From elsewhere in Long Beach, head west on 3rd St. After you cross Cedar, turn left on Chestnut then left again on Broadway. Pull into the parking structure on the right, just before Cedar.

    See MapQuest for general location of City Hall: Click here

    To the Council Chambers:

    From the lot, head south towards the tallest building. If you enter on the North side, keep to the left and you will come to the council chambers. If you enter on the East side, keep to the right to find the entrance to council chambers.

    We would also like as many people as possible to write letters to Dan Baker's office. His email address is: baker@c... His mailing address is: Dan Baker, 2nd District Council Person, City of Long Beach, 333 W. Ocean Blvd., Long Beach 90802. His phone number is (562) 570-6684.

    Please forward this column to anyone you think would be interested.
