I was very tired and wondering whether I should just give up doing Crack o’ Dawn.
It seemed like such a pain to get my butt over there in the cold night.
Yes, both Frank’s presidential platform and the poem for Connie brought tears to my eyes.
People phoned in with very serious questions and Frank’s answers, were filled with depth and simplicity, it was overwhelming and for three hours I could let go of my cynicism and near despair.
The jam, + Elvis, Otis, Platters, etc accompanying Frank’s distinctive singing style was a hoot, providing balance to the callins.
To quote Linda the Great: “Hot shit!”
Love,
Barb

Subject: Artists and the Recession Survey Results
Dear Alyssa,
Thank you so much for your participation in the Artists and the Economic Recession Survey, commissioned by Leveraging Investments in Creativity, in collaboration with Helicon Collaborative and Princeton Survey Research Associates International.
As promised, here are the preliminary survey findings:http://www.lincnet.net/sites/all/files/Selected%20Findings%20Artists%20and%20the%20Recession%20Survey%202009.pdf
Highlights of the data include:
Two-thirds of artists hold at least one job in addition to making art.
Artists’ incomes are relatively low (two-thirds made less than $40,000 in 2008), and half (51%) reported a decrease in their art-related income from 2008 to 2009.
Forty percent of artists do not have adequate health insurance and more than 50% are worried about losing what they do have.
Despite the challenges, artists are optimistic about the future—89% think artists have a special role in helping strengthen communities in these times, and 75% believe this is an inspiring time to be an artist.
Some opportunities have emerged as a result of the recession—40% report they have been able to spend more time on their artwork, and one-third have seized the opportunity to experiment and collaborate more.
While direct financial support would be most helpful to artists, technical assistance, networking opportunities, and supplies are also high on the list.
A full report will be available on our website (www.lincnet.net) in early Spring 2010.
Thank you for your interest and participation,

and is this suppose to be earth shattering news? Or even shocking depressing outrage?
Actually this survey is a great piece of ironical performance art. Getting paid good money to ask those obvious questions! That is high art indeed! And I love the surreal name, Leveraging Investments in Creativity. Like how many joints did it take to come up with that new speak name, and how many more joints to keep a straight face saying it.
Btw, if you see Leveraging Investments in Creativity drive up, RUN!

hey Frank !
thanks for the shout out!
I wanted to thank you for the wonderful time I had playing and hanging out at
the Shaman’s Den! You all were so nice and accomodating.
A real warm sense of frendship and brotherhood.
Thanks for one of the highlights of my great west coast adventure.
Lets not make it another ten years!
Will see you soon buddy. Merry Christmas to you and all of the Luver staff!
cheers!
Jhon

hey, Steve! I have missed you! We have booked the Temescal performance series for the whole next year! The
dates are up at http://www.eroplay.com/events.html. The next is Friday December eighteenth . Love to have you play/jam! We are having great musicians showing up!
Can +DOG+ do The Shaman’s den on January seventeen? That is our first opening!
Hey, if +DOG+ has any Bay area gigs, I might be available to play!
Btw, my Sunday guest was a great guitarist Jhon Thumb. I asked him to be a guest ten years ago after we both played at THE WEFEST in North Carolina. Apparently he kept
my email invitation in his in-box for all of these years so that when he moved out here from New Jersey, he contacted me about being on my]
show. Wild! Anyway, he wants to get link up with musicians out here… So…
