11 AM Friday, January 6th, Chicago Hilton Towers, 720 S. Michigan Ave.

LEADING THE WORLD IN DEATH & DECEPTION - USA #1!!!

<<< Cost of War in Iraq counter: $230,532,770,436 as of January 1, 2006 >>>

<<< Iraq Body Count: 27,707 civilian deaths (min.) as of January 1, 2006 >>>

NEWS, Highlights, Updates & Corrections:

- As I approach the 3-year mark for this calendar, I ask myself why am I spending so
much of my time doing this when participation by local musicians is almost non-existent -
I can count the number of people who actively send me their listings on one hand
(most weeks with fingers left over... )  here is what the list would look like:
www.savagesound.com/submissions.htm - mostly Myopic and Muse Café -
this project has been remarkably similar to my mission to record local performances, a
gigantic and expensive waste of effort with minimal cooperation by the artists involved.
At this point, I have to question if there is any real value in continuing....

NEWS, Highlights, Updates & Corrections:

- in light of all the hype, i submit that there could not possibly be a more intense
variation of the dinner and a movie theme than dessert from Sweets & Savories
followed by Marebito at Facets (but not for the squeamish) i of course will be
celebrating in the traditional way by crawling under a rock....
(seriously, the ultimate japanese vampire/love film, don't close your eyes)

- i heard they were going to call it The Extremely Contrived Short Notice Festival
but decided on The Hawk Winter Music Festival instead....

throw him to the wolves? lame-duck to dead-duck? the figurehead has become a liability for the
neo-con agenda, but his assasination would be great fear-fodder... with the next one they should
try a little harder to get someone who can actually read from a teleprompter
