[Sep 28][Van] Street March, Rally & Party

[Sir_K]

Stopwar.ca & Wickedhouseparty.org fire up the decks for peace

September 28th, 2003:

Wickedhouseparty & Stopwar.ca will be hosting a rally/march starting at the Vancouver Art Gallery at 11:00am.

The pretexts for the war, WMD are nowhere to be found. The Iraqi people are very clear that they want to run their own affairs, not have G7 nations dicate their policy and appoint political leaders. Iraq has just been opened up to foreign investment in nearly all sectors of the economy - it's a bargain basement sale to friends of the "coalition of the willing" in the Iraqi economy.

End the occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan - Wickedhouseparty will be throwing down some music before and after the march. DJs Nate D, Sir K & Jules Verdict will be out to represent in full effect.

Stopwar estimates 3000-5000 people - so get ready to show that the bombs that should be dropped are cut to wax, not dropped out of a plane!

Info: Stopwar, Wickedhouseparty

will this be as packed as your last attempt to do this?

[simo]

I wonder if stopwar.ca knows they have a partner?

I somehow suspect they dont.

(get out to the ralley anyway though.)

[rawb]

funny how there is no mention of wickedhouseparty on the stopwar site...

[jim]

[Sir_K]

oh the drama

[jim]

You know that this makes you look like a real jerk Kris, a lot of people have worked hard to organize this and then you come along and say that it's been done by WHP. Quit trying to make yourself look good by scaming other people.

[jim]

On a side-note, is Jules Verdict still kickin those TRANCEY BREAKS???

[Special-K]

ya man not to sound like a prick or anything but When i saw this the first thing i thought was that you were using a serious issue like this just to promote yourself.

[automatic]

to be fair the stopwar site lists "wickedparty" as providing music, but they have the rally starting at 1 pm, wonder if kris et al. plan on setting up 2 hours early to make sure they get good "exposure"

Stopwar.ca is coalition of over 160 groups that togther have managed to put this togther, Kris coming along and setting up some sound gear still doesn't give him liscence to take credit for it.

If Kris wants to present it like this he should be listing the 160 other orginizations that are part of stopwar.ca. Also it's pretty weak trying to trick people into showing up 2 hours early.

Why isn't it called Day Glow 9?

[narc]

I wonder how many people you will turn away once you start playing on the decks?

[AGROculture]

I wonder if a pro war, pro USA group invited WHP to provide the beats its he would also do so

WHP & Morewar.ca presents......

I mean promo is promo right?

No offense buddy, but your post is a bit out of line. I've been to the stopwar meetings and have helped out more than a few of those 160 organizations at their smaller events and know exactly what they are about.

Myself I strongly disagree with the grounds upon the war. I went to the first major peace protest with no intention of ever playing there, was asked to help out at the third and did.

I was also asked to help out at this rally. And we are, gladly, because we support 110% the cause and the motive.

peace

Kris it's great that you support this cuase, however the way your going about it is what bothers people. As you say you are helping out with this event, yet when you go to advertise it you turn around and try to take credit for it as your own event. If all the other promo for it said WHP and Stopwar.ca were orginizing the event than fine but that's not the case. Just admit it that the way you advertised it you're trying to take credit for something that you are a small part of.

All the same good on you for helping out.

If Stopwar.ca is 160 different organizations it seems that all those other organizations are keeping their name out of it, so I suggest either type out all the organisations involved including WHP or just simply Stopwar.ca presents

The UN did not in any way sanction the invasion of Afghanistan.

Kris, I have tried to mind the gap that you have put between you and this scene, 'cause I know your heart is in the right place, but in all fairness you have a disgustingly serious issue for taking credit for shit you have no iota in creating.

I HAVE NOT ONCE SEEN YOU AT ANY OF THE STOPWAR.CA MEETINGS EVER!

And I've been going to them regularly for the last 6 months. Come out this Wednesday to the Maritime Labour Centre at 7:30 pm to prove me wrong.

I think it's great you are here to help, but at most you are part of the coalition of groups, in no way is WHP more active then the labour unions, or the rabble rousers that come out multiple times a month and pour their hearts out to get these things organized.

It should state in your header "STOPWAR.CA presents" with maybe "music provided by WHP + guests" later in the body of the promo.

It really urks me to see you misrepresenting this event, and speaking of the event you could of atleast played some tunes that were slightly less party-kid and had a message other than "OMG let's go kill brain cells, PLUR!" For example, Adam Freeland's "We want your soul" would have been perfect for the event, SHAME ON YOU FOR NOT DROPPING SUCH MADNESS! (some reggae wouldn't have hurt either)

I conclude my spiel in saying, give credit where credit is due man, I am not here to hound you like you think most people are so please take this to heart for future reference if you appreciated me sticking up for you in the past.

Kind Regards,

Mark Paul

Okay man do some homework on the world central banks, and find out who is funding and started the UN (think League of Nations 1918). I'll tell you now, they are all working for the same kabal so get this phony rhetoric out of your system. When in North America they start rolling out national ID cards and give police marshal authority (RCMP is a military branch, and just look at FEMA) you will see for yourself what occupation looks like, no wait, er..uhm, I meant freedom. Freedom comes in a military presence you know!
