Next Wed, Jun 2 @ 5-7pm the guys from Alwun House are hosting a neighborhood meet & greet... Food from Ranch Market, also potluck side dishes... Maybe entertainment from locals. Really trying to encourage newer folks from the arts community, even ASU to get to know their neighbors. NE corner of 12th & Roosevelt. Thx.

Alwun House was one of the first places I ever went when I moved to AZ (about 1993). Played some shows there. Had some car speakers stolen. Ha. I believe I even saw Yolanda Snow Songs sing a Sinead O'Connor tune a'capella there. Yep.

Don't live in the hood, but I believe Mig is close by. Bring some jalepeno cake for potluck? j/k

At first I thought you meant Jon Davis was going to be somewhere signing books and taking pics with fans.

And Garfield, Odie and Nermal full size costumers.

That's cool it's Alwun House though. I live on the opposite end at 11th ave and roosevelt, so I guess I don't qualify.

I would be too late anyways. C'est la vie

All the time when I tell people what I do they say, "Oh I don't understand art, I can't even draw." (or worse, "I only like art I can understand.") Well, ya know what, I don't know how to make a car, but I sure appreciate being able to drive one.

Not in Garfield, but definitely within walking distance. I'm on the northside in the (soon to be) Coronado district.


I knew of the Alwun house for years before I ever actually went there within the last year for Femocracy.


I love the place and miss the fact I had never been there previously.





Fourthed on thinking this was about Jon Davis

People don't give a shit, unless it affects them personally, this affects me personally!

This is The Shizz.



Chromelodeon manages to get all the furniture from their hotel into the lake a few years back...and people are worried about shizzies?

hehe

while calling the place nice might be a stretch, it's come a long way towards being a good place to live in the last several years. it's moving quickly toward being a funky arts/college ghetto rather than a good ol fashioned poor, gang ridden, primarily migrant hispanic ghetto... still quite diverse & interesting, just less dangerous :-)

edit - yeah, Donald, I think you're definitely close enough, if you wanna come by. If they hadn't put the freeway through in the 1980's you'd technically be in North Garfield.

My thesis is called the "Black-Emperor-Says Theory" and holds that any any Phoenix-area indie rock festival there is a 100 percent probability that Emperors of Japan, Black Carl, and/or What Laura Says will be on the bill.
