Check out what people are saying about Shadow Screamers
Lynn Shadow Screamers knows........ January 30, 2004, 12:20 pm ---- Whenever one gives of the self without reservation, great things have been known to happen. Shadow Screamers is relentless in their mission to bring awareness to real issues, either by exposing us to their intimate experiences or, by using informations from other primary sources. In the last entry about slavery,(Band's journal) it's easy for one to sigh and turn a blind eye. After all, slavery has been with us since recorded history. But when you possess the consciousness, the humanity of Shadow Screamers, you don't allow a wrong to go on unchallenged. You confront the system and join in the struggle to right the injustices. This band's site is only getting better. Thanks for posting those web addresses on the band's journal......LBD Very Newsworthy..... January 29, 2004, 12:22 pm ---- I had to be at a meeting. Missed NPR, my lifeline. NPR is as real and reliable as it gets. I am a member of PBS and this month, finally, I am making it a mission to get a membership as well with NPR. Thanks, Shadow Screamers, for sharing some uplifting and informative news with us. I wonder if NPR could be interested in bringing Shadow Screamers band live at the Miami studio???????? This band is right along the line of NPR's social consciousness: To inform, to educate, and to entertain. Jason, go to: www.witsendpoetry.com for your info. January 28, 2004, 1:44 pm ---- Events site offers more info about poets and poetry and other upcoming events.... let me know how it all works out About National Poetry contest.... January 28, 2004, 1:32 pm ---- jason go to Delrayslam and click on Delray Poets. The page should feature one of the young women poets named Tap. and find the links. Keep on rolling, shadow Screamers Just wan to say.... January 28, 2004, 1:24 pm ---- Lasting Love is friendship turned to bliss................Find the friend in your special someone. James January 28, 2004, 12:40 pm ---- Although I don't agree with everything here,what a breath of fresh air!Keep writing and playing Shadowscreamers.Count me as a fan. All clubs January 28, 2004, 9:31 am ---- I agree!This stuff has got to be heard.This band leads the way,mind blowing!Isn't that what we need in these repressive times.Scream,Shadowscreamers!Tammy Bleeding Hearts. ........ So we are called. January 28, 2004, 9:17 am ---- Last night at Dada's I was glad to be among my fellow bleeding hearts. Awesome poets with the kind of prophetic words that make us squirm and sweat. How refreshing it was to hear others validate your vision, your take of the world. This poetry slam was attended by a true canvas of humanity. People of various ages, races, and social strata. I was particularly moved by the words of the 20 something age group. As a middle ager, I feel relieved to see that there will be a group to take over the watch after I am long gone. These young people speak with such conviction. I wish I had just one ounce of their dedication and awareness when I was their age. This one young lady poet hammered it in when she declared with defiance in her throat,"Yes I am a bleeding heart, one of those hippies you sneer at. But it is the so called BLEEDING HEARTS, dillusional hippies who are fighting to ensure that there will be a world for your children's children." As I said in my preceeding entry, Shadow Screamers would have found its spring board last night at DAda's. Shadow Screamers,there is a market out there that speaks your language. There is an audience young and old in all different stripes who are searching for your voice. Can we hear a holler from you! By the way, Jason would have been in Pig Heaven last night with all these great poems he writes. Some of the poets are heading for the National in South Carolina. Follow the trail Shadow Screamers...... Luce Tony January 28, 2004, 7:21 am ---- I play in a band and love your stuff.You guys need to get out and play again.Noone plays this kind of music,you are probably closer to making it than you think.I don't hear much originality anymore.this is really original music.Get off your asses and get playing! Call DADA's of Delray Beach... January 28, 2004, 6:28 am ---- The only thing missing last night at Dada's was Shadow screamers. The music would have been the perfect backdrop for the event.So...............call Dada's. we would love to see you at Open mike....... Just Shoot me.....................I believe in rom January 27, 2004, 7:30 pm ---- OK. I confessed. I am a romantic. February seems to bring it to the surface. It's the bombardment of Red at the Malls. By gosh, it's everywhere. Absolutely inescapable. For those of us who are left wondering about what it must be like to have a sweetheart of your own on Valentine's Day, it's easy to see green in the stream of reds . But not yours truly. I am just too romantic. I can at least vicariously share in the good fortune of others. Plus, envy sucks. So, I go about in my head creating the one and ten thousand ways to please your lover, from Feb. 1st to the 14th. Oh, did I mention passion? One day, one night just would not do, simply could not suffice. So to the lovers out there I say, forget about the chocolate, unless you are wearing it. The only card you should give this year should be hand-drawn, with you as the canvas, of course. Anything short of that you would have missed the mark! Life is short. Shed those inhibitions. Kick up those creaky heels they are in need of a good workout........Yours truly, The Java Queen How Generous of You.......... January 27, 2004, 3:56 pm ---- In the spirit of unity Shadow Screamers has made this Fan Journal available to all who support the band and its mission as a place to share comments about the band and offer suggestions on how to further increase the band's following. To remain silent does not mean that you don't have an opinion or feeling on matters that are of importance to you. Quite the contrary. When you silence yourself you give up your voice to others to speak in your good name. What a travesty! You know you want to be heard. Takes but a few minutes to check this awesome, messenger of thruth site out and you feel good for a good while after that. Come on now, scream, yell, laugh or cry. Say something. Shadow Screamers are listening. I could kiss Sting this morning...........Oh yes, January 27, 2004, 6:15 am ---- I could kiss Sting this morning for these words in one of his songs:" Don't judge me. This could be you in another life, in another set of circumstances." It is in our nature to judge others. There is safety in dissecting, evaluating our neighbour, our friends because the pronouncement we make on others prevent us from getting too close to home, too close to ourselves. We don't show empathy perhaps because we confuse empathy with condoning. Or is the fear of transference. The fear of being susceptible and therefore vulnerable. After my own experiences of how one can fall short of the loftiest standards, I have made it my personal mission to remember and practice this ancient virtue: Judge not, lest thou be judged.......Lucienne The Eyes of Love Tell Lies. January 26, 2004, 4:40 pm ---- To be in love is to be blind. To be in love is to be deaf. To be in love is to be foolish. The eyes of Love make you see things that don't even exist. The ears of Love hear words of tenderness that will never be said. To be in love is bitter and sweet. Sweet it is to own such feeling of joy and ecstacy. Bitter it is when that Love cannot reach the shelter it was intended for. They say that time has a way of healing most things. I am hopeful that time will be good to me. The grass might might not be greener, true. But they vary in the scope of life's challenges. Some have more holes and even perillous canyons, while others just have some patchy brown spots and a few dandelions....... The Hunchback..... January 26, 2004, 6:15 am ---- I am a hunchback. We are all hunchbacks to some degree. It's so much easier to see your neighbour's hump than your own that has so aptly merged with your back; after all, we don't have eyes behind our backs. What is out of sight can expediently become out of mind. I am mortal just like my fellow men and thereby succumb to all the tendencies of human fallacies. I know that I have fallen short of my own responsibilities to Humankind. I eat not very much, but I eat very fancy. My house is too big. My perks, too many. When I look at my neighbour, I see me. I see my consumption and I feel shame. It's so scandalous for me to preach about the planet, about giving, about changes when I am so intrinsically marred in the problem. If there is to be a solution, I must deal with my own saddle, shed the excesses in my own life and make time to be directly involved and contribute toward that better vision. Until then, I am just talking. Just talking.....Peace, Luce Keep the faith January 25, 2004, 5:52 pm ---- As one who believes in Shadow Screamers' mission, I am all the more pleased to read in Jason's entry(check band's journal)the possibility that the band and its site might be seriuosly consired by some socially conscious manager. I know that such individuals do exist and should be vigourously sought out. There is so much noise out there and as many people with nothing to say. Shadow Screamers must keep the momentum and raise their own voice and be heard. Who knows! Maybe a tour could be in the making;Summer is near, for the optimist anyway.......Peace, Lucienne Now is....Love now. Live now. Feel now. Now is January 25, 2004, 5:33 pm ---- Spring is near. Well Spring is near for the optimist. I am always so fascinated if not perplexed by the seriousness some people attached to the rituals of spring cleaning. Dust those shelves. Turn up the whole house for those unwanted pesky cobwebs. Might want to put up some new, fresh curtains. Don't overlook the overhaul of your wardrobe. Out with the Old. In the New. Let's revamp everything. Make it fresh and relevant. So then I wonder what if this spring, this year, these folks were to turn this tradition on its head? What if they were to make themselves the subject of spring cleaning? What if they were to look at their souls, their lives, their choices and look for the cobwebs that lurk in those secret places, Spring, after spring, after spring. It's so easy to get lost in the details, the mundane, anything at all to keep us busy is so readily embraced as we throw a furtive look at the lives on the shelves; and the dust, and the cobwebs of years multiply until we cease to notice. So we fail to remember that Life is now. Now is now..............Lucienne Alvin January 24, 2004, 4:19 pm ---- This band has an evolutionary voice,very important!I like the second album,but have you checked out their first album under the name,'Tired Eyes',killer shit! Inspiring..............Exactly my motto to survive January 23, 2004, 4:42 pm ---- DANCE as though no one is watching you. LOVE as though you have never been hurt before. SING as though no one can hear you. LIVE as though heaven is on earth. (by SOUZA )
