Dear Music Lover,


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jorge’s Corner
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In this corner, St. Patrick’s Day; and in that corner Cinco de Mayo. Which one will be more of a party?? Well, on the day of the Irish celebration, it was one heck of a party at Billy Bombay’s Nightclub in Redding.

The house was filled to capacity and there were many party goers dancing, drinking, whooping and a hollering.

On Cinco de Mayo, the Mexican celebration, there should be lots of people too because for the first time in a long time, Majical will actually be playing a Cinco de Mayo gig . . . on the fifth of May! NO, not the 6 or 7 but on the 5th.

For Majical when we have been booked to do a gig on that day, the fifth usually fell on a Wednesday or Thursday and so by Friday night when we played, not many people would show up because they were burned out already! Si senor, es la verdad.

I want to thank you for showing up on St. Patrick’s Day but if didn’t then WHY NOT?!!? Naw, it’s cool. . . I understand if you couldn’t make it. Just make it to the “Fifth of May” celebration if you can. We look forward to seeing you there.

So we had a long winter with lots of rain; rainfall that has broken all the records for March and even April I hear. So now it goes directly to summer from winter, which isn’t all that unusual for Redding and the surrounding area.

Yes, the heat is on and we would love to see you at Billy Bombay’s for the party. Oh, it’s also Leonard’s 10th anniversary at Billy’s I believe so it will be a double whammy party of parties. Well, it’s some sort of anniversary anyway so we hope to see you there. There'll be lots of hot dancing, people and música. Arriba pues!

We are playing Billy’s this Friday night the 21st of April, starting at 9pm and going until about 1am.

Then on the 22nd, Saturday, we will be doing a free concert at Caldwell Park at the Carter House Museum, or rather, in front of it or to the side, however you want to see it.

This is for Earth Day and it is FR.E.E to the public. See details below.


~~~~~~~~~~~
Earth Day
~~~~~~~~~~~

Earth Day was invented by us a long time ago to celebrate our planet but also to bring about an awareness that we need to care for her and our environment. We have fallen short of that goal but we can find ways to really do our part and possibly reverse some of the grave damage we have inflicted on mama earth.

I invite you to join us in celebrating Earth Day this Saturday, April 22nd from 10am to 4pm at Caldwell Park in Redding, right on the Sacramento River Trail and west of the Redding Aquatic Center.

There will be 4 bands, over 30 exhibitors/vendors, speakers, good food, hand drumming, dancers, poetry, kids’ activities, activism opportunities, open mic time, massages and other holistic health care.

A book and video swap/sale will be one of many activities going on and for your convenience a supervised place to park bikes and skates, and lots of FREE stuff! A schedule of the entertainment is listed below so tell your friends, tell your family, tell everyone you know to carpool, bike, skate, and run or just walk and join us for a day of fun, learning, inspiration, and action!

Environmentally Friendly

Here are some very “Friendly Earth Day” products for us and that actually protects the environment, and us included; just in time for our consciousness raising earth day celebrations.

A. For your engines.
=============================================
The product Ethos Fuel Re-Formulator is one that you will be able to finally accomplish the success you have always imagined possible. Ethos FR is a unique combination of high-quality, non toxic, specially designed esters that uses only the elements of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

This patented combination of low molecular weight cleaning esters and high molecular weight lubricating esters, reformulate any fuel whether its gasoline, diesel, methanol, ethanol, hydrogen, LNG, CNG (compressed natural gas), or bio-diesel.

EPA laboratories tests confirm that Ethos FR is 99.99976% clean upon ignition and ash less upon combustion. Ethos is also free of carcinogens.

We all drive so we need to use it. Plus for those inclined, you can make money with this product too. Visit my website and see for yourself at:

Read that and join me in the revolution. At the very least, look at the videos and email me back with any questions on how you can get some for your use.

This is timely and perfect to beat the oil companies at their own game. It’s non toxic and environmentally safe to use.

C. For your health
============================================

Have you had your spinach today?

In 1948 you could buy spinach that had 158 milligrams of iron per hundred grams. By 1965, the maximum had dropped to 27 milligrams. In 1973 it was averaging 2.2. That means you would have to eat 75 bowls of spinach to get the same amount of iron that one bowl might have given you back in 1948.

We have to have cobalt to process vitamin B12. We need vitamin B12 for healthy red blood cells. Sadly most of the vegetables that supply cobalt in the diet now test zero.

The top soil over most of the land used to grow fruits and vegetables is very much depleted. This in turn produces crops that are severely low in the necessary vitamins and mineral that our bodies need for optimum health.

The typical daily diet does not supply the necessary proteins, vitamins and minerals to properly replace the dying cells in our internal and external organs. If we fall short our immunity system is weakened leaving us vulnerable to sickness and disease.

So...are you getting the 20 essential amino acids, 14 essential minerals and 13 essential vitamins in your daily diet to insure your "good health"?

http://www.moreinfo247.com/8990168/VNU

Veriuni's Liquid Nutrition offers you a great tasting peach-flavored liquid multivitamin that supplies 100% of your daily vitamins and minerals.

The liquid, unlike many tablets, is highly absorbed by the body so that all the benefits from your investment are realized. Veriuni Liquid Nutrition consists of all natural ingredients taken from plants and the earth itself, with no fillers or binders.

Just one ounce of this unique supplement taken daily supplies 127 of the best vitamins, minerals, herbal complex and amino acid complex available.

Want your vitamins for free? Join me and you can too.
