WarFire: SoCal warriors now in Kuwait
it is now official public knowledge that 1,000 Marines from our Camp Pendleton Hood in Oceanside have arrived in Kuwait. most were in training school during the Desert Storm campaign against Iraq led by General Norman Schwartzkopf. our Marines are, as many say, committed to being during American crises, "at the pointy end of the spear" -- instantly ready to deliver & sustain warfire. sez Sgt. Brian Collins, 27, "We're trained to move fast and shoot fast."
our SoCal warriors wait to go into battle in any direction, including Iraq, from which the Supreme Commander & military leaders order them to go.
should they meet opponents in war, on behalf of all of us at SoCalFire, inclusive of all personal stances among us, we wish them accurate fire whenever they launch a weapon, innocence from harming civilians, and protection from damage of all kinds. & a safe trip home, with invitation to come join us in a peaceful fire spin any time, kickin up da joy of livin together on this dope stretch of coast.
SHOUT OUT
here's a special shout out to much-loved Home of Poi SoCalFire member Raymund Phule, on duty in Japan, who's been wondering how to say "fire poi" in Japanese. Ray, we love ya, dude! ya like sushi & sashimi (raw seafood), soba (buckwheat noodles), tempura(superlight batter-fried anything), shabu shabu (assorted hotpot in soup), tonkatsu (breaded porkchops), or McDonalds Japan? have a good time, & see some madd fire stuff in the temples & all, & tell us all about it, dude! we think about ya all the time.

The Great Lix, founder of Fire Fabulon (Detroit, MI) & The Crispy Family Circus (Denver, CO) is in SoCal!
SHE EATS GLASS & she'll be here on & off for a coupla weeks, mainly in central Orange County & downtown LA. & yo, she's dying for da beach, a spin on da beach, & livin on da beach! so i told her if she comes out here with time to play, or lives out here, we could take her to a different kind of beach every night!
got to meet her over some sangria & snacks tonight with Grim, & had a great time! Lix's so smart, a lil sassy, cute, tough, direct, & loves the theatrical circus side of fire & side shows!
we wish her "break a leg" on her interviews for a senior library science day job in the City of Orange, and hope she'll follow an urge to move out here regardless, & join our pyro family out here. i personally have no doubt, if she wants that job, it's hers to do with as she pleases.
got a lil profile of her on our site, if you find it's off the home page & next events, we've moved it to features where we'll do a spotlight on her & her intensive career building fire troupes across the country!

The Scorpion King's lavish, flame-filled promo event includes fire-breathers
Sunset Boulevard, Hollywood, Monday night, Sept 30
Monday night, Craig Kornblau, vice president of Universal Studios' home video, vowed "We're going to have people rushing to the retailers," naming chain after retail chain. coz for the Tuesday release of The Scorpion King DVD, he & his marketing team were at the corner of Sunset Boulevard across from the flagship Virgin Megastore, where they put together a mammoth public event with a huge cast.
[psst! want a free $5 off coupon for the DVD? click on our link in the title of this item for the official Scorpion King webpage and find the offer in the top right of its home page!]
First a Scorpion King scene was re-enacted with screaming explosions of flame. on a raised stage worthy of this month's Official Home of Poi Male Auction Catwalk Runway show, beefstud warriors sword-dueled as belly-dancing chix slithered around. fire-breathing chicks knelt in their gypsy wraps, put fire-eating batons between open lips, & blew 4 foot dragon breaths straight up to the stars. movie co-star ms. Kelly Hu flew in from the Canadian set of her next gig, X-Men, just for tonight's street gig. the pyrotechnicians heightened the tech-flames as the Scorpion King himself rapelled down from the heavens above to the mortal audience below, landing by 3 camels.
Next thing was to get the whole crew across Sunset Boulevard to the Virgin Megastore.
so what was that really like, getting that to happen with a large bunch of pyros, belly dancers & bodybuilt, oiled, warm-weather primitive swordsmen? just like ya thought: chaos.
does this sound familiar from when you organized fire artists who don't belong to one practiced troupe? a director barkered out, "could I please have all the harem girls and all the warriors join the camels?"
the camels snickered menacing teeth and circuited the parking lot instead of waiting for humans to join them, or cross Sunset. the warriors mobbed Kelly Hu who "furrowed her brow." da loose-hipped loose-vibe belly dancer chix were too busy flirting for all da photographers invited to cover the gig to listen to some friggin director asking them to move out of the lens to da mean desert beasts.
well, when directors & the rest of the event producing staff did get the amateur-semi-pro-actin' pyro actor mob over the street, stoppin traffic, instead of a camel delivering "the first DVD" to the Virgin Megastore, the caravan's human train left the camels outside when they swarmed in around confused Virgin shoppers in the aisles.
40% of a DVD's sales happen in the first week of its release, which is why Universal Studios put so much into one live promo event, which did succeed in getting some press. The Scorpion King's total domestic gross was $90.3 million, and while Nov 1 is the traditional time to release major home-purchase media to compete for holiday sales, early release like Oct 1 for family fare chases Disney/Pixar's Monsters, Inc. which sold 11 million DVDs, VHS, and other media in mid-Sept in the US and Canada alone.
well, even through the chaos of performers unco-ordinated with their overall program, music shoppers got a kick out of the belly dance chix doing what they always do. . .spontaneous shows. and even if he may've mistook a firechick for a dude, and maybe called fire-eating "breathing," a male Virgin sales clerk gushed to his colleague, "it's awesome! did you see the guy eating fire outside?"

the camels snickered menacing teeth and circuited the parking lot instead of waiting for humans to join them, or cross Sunset. the warriors mobbed Kelly Hu who "furrowed her brow." da loose-hipped loose-vibe belly dancer chix were too busy flirting for all da photographers invited to cover the gig to listen to some friggin director asking them to move out of the lens to da mean desert beasts.
well, when directors & the rest of the event producing staff did get the amateur-semi-pro-actin' pyro actor mob over the street, stoppin traffic, instead of a camel delivering "the first DVD" to the Virgin Megastore, the caravan's human train left the camels outside when they swarmed in around confused Virgin shoppers in the aisles.
40% of a DVD's sales happen in the first week of its release, which is why Universal Studios put so much into one live promo event, which did succeed in getting some press. The Scorpion King's total domestic gross was $90.3 million, and while Nov 1 is the traditional time to release major home-purchase media to compete for holiday sales, early release like Oct 1 for family fare chases Disney/Pixar's Monsters, Inc. which sold 11 million DVDs, VHS, and other media in mid-Sept in the US and Canada alone.
well, even through the chaos of performers unco-ordinated with their overall program, music shoppers got a kick out of the belly dance chix doing what they always do. . .spontaneous shows. and even if he may've mistook a firechick for a dude, and maybe called fire-eating "breathing," a male Virgin sales clerk gushed to his colleague, "it's awesome! did you see the guy eating fire outside?"

There's a story in in the local arts and entertainment weekly newspaper on me and firedancing. It's in the Ventura County Reporter online which is at https://www.vcreporter.com/
(Oct 3, 2002).
The reporter actually understood my remarks about the psycho-anthropological origins about fire dancing. It's the best article I've ever seen on firedancing. Should you be unable to read the story, the photos are [also] at www.jdimo.com/rptr/fire
~ Maximus
When first published on Oct 3, 2002, it was on the front page online, the story right under the cover story, with this blurb:
art & culture
Fire dancing is as old as the cave dwellers that started it. Local dancer Phil Heiple says that although its refinements have made it safer, it’s still a primordial experience that offers a connection between man and his evolution.
which clicks to the main article.
Maximus was quoted on a great turn of phrase:

Earthdance 2002 ~ San Diego
San Diego, CA, USA, Saturday Oct 12, 2002
Oceanside's Valerie and the Vibe Tribe are hosts for Earthdance San Diego this year. We'll post you details in a day or so, and in the meantime, you can easily check for Earthdance detais throughout SoCal on many calendars and online.
It is being held at a suburban park, and there are no specific plans for lighting up firetoys. Valerie's crew remind us that since they anchor our pyro community's comfortable relationship with the San Diego fire marshal very well, community respect is of utmost importance. come to Earth Dance in San Diego, but don't expect you can light up for sure, it will go with the vibe of the moment, with however participants and officials feel at the time, and no specific fire performance or practice there is planned. . . as of now. . . gotta flex wit da wind on dis one!

THEIR WEBSITE
shows a lot of performers in Russia, and from around the world including several from England, and some from China, Japan, and USA.
not surprising that at the top of their pages you can click to view the site in Russian instead of its default, which is in English.
but they don't really have a category for fire arts right now, so if you post yourself into their directory, ya gotta choose between "Juggling" and "Specialty Acts." right now, neither one seems to have fire in them, which is probably why they're looking for some pyro talent, peeps!
if their daily counter's straight up, today they added 7 performers plus 2 acts (distinction unclear). Here's what they report for "Site Popularity":
Artist profiles 32
Act profiles 28
Show profiles 25
Total profiles 85
Total visitors 774
in their online "hot jobs" section, they currently only list 2 gigs:

adamrice and Charles (INFERNO) kindly brought this to our attention, and this agency is right of Beverly Hills! some SoCalFire members have received e-mails, too, probably from HoP listings.
They seem to be rolling out promo mail to fire performers right now, at least by e-mail, and Charles is enquiring back that way, with no response as of yet.
Anyone -- in or out of SoCal -- know more about them, let us know! If not, we'll look into it next week by local phone and let our friends at HoP know what up with this agency in person.

The Global Dance for Planetary Peace in Aid of Tibet

Presale in Tucson: Sounds Fresh 520-617-8913, Phoenix: Swell 480-945-3898
General hosts: Surreal Entertainment & The Raverhouse, Joey Scarfone surrealentertainment@hotmail.com
Earthdance's SF HQ doesn't know the details of this party to post on their website, but FireMike knew where to get em for us, props to Mr. Deserttrance of Nth & to Core Graphics for Arizona's rave site, Deserttrance www.deserttrance.com! If you can get out of town, FireMike personally recommends this one. In SoCal, a Massive is usually 5,000+ peeps. From many discussions with Arizona promoters about Massives there, which are counted from about 2-3,000 heads up, this may be the biggest Arizona party of the year, and the vibe in Arizona is mainly "purer" and friendlier than in SoCal today, in any part of our region.
Surreal Entertainment sez, "This will be our third year bringing Arizona this amazing festival of life. This event will open your mind and take your breath away. Thanks for your continual support. Enjoy the universe. Our mission is to unite the positive force of the emerging global electronic music movement. . .to provide the focal point for sustaining a dedicated global community. As a community, we actively support world peace by raising awareness for selected causes.
Two Super Stages that will make history and restore all hope
Props, Props and more Props
Massive Chill area
Free, food, candy, fruit, toys, balloons, tea, CDS, tapes and T-shirts
Please do not bring: weapons, drugs, alcohol, vicks, or open or glass containers
You can bring: bookbags, cameras, video cameras, candy and good vibes
This event will reinstill all P.L.U.R. values in the scene and bring back the vibe that the Arizona Dance Community was once legendary for. You bring the vibe and we'll bring the event that will restore your faith in the scene you love so much.
Tibet House of Trust: ". . . so far already four orphanages have been built where 65 orphans are living. All of this has been possible due to your help. So we want to thank you very much on behalf of our orphans." Palden Tawo, Director, Tadra Project. "We are the same human being all sharing the same planet." His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

Earthdance, a non-profit organization, has raised over $450,000 for local charities that advance the increasingly critical goals of world peace, the welfare of youth and protection of the environment.
This year Earthdance has aligned with the United Nations internationally and the Mayor's Youth Fund in San Francisco- in order to advance the key initiatives of peace and the welfare of youth.
Earthdance visionary and founder, Chris Deckker, describes the worldwide synchronization, "The Prayer for Peace is a powerful message of peace and global unity that shows the world that there really are no boundaries among us. This hopeful message is critical to embrace, in light of our current escalating global conflicts."
Event producers around the world have joined Earthdance to bring a variety of music and dance events to 100 cities around the globe. Countries include the UK, Japan and China, as well as Bolivia, Columbia, Czech Rebuplic, India, Kazakhstan and Nigeria. Festival-goers will enjoy celebrations at venues both diverse and unique, ranging from a 300-foot deep crater in Johannesburg, to a nature reserve in Tswaing, Africa, to a sacred aboriginal cultural center in western Australia.
"Through the use of new media and these worldwide peace celebrations, Earthdance represents the model of how grass roots communities can become internationally recognized," said Earthdance Executive Producer Mike Evans. "Their powerful voice can affect global political situations today and the general social condition of humanity as a whole." As host city, San Francisco will provide the primary content for a live global webcast, available at www.earthdance.org.
Earthdance's key platforms for peace are the environment, the welfare of children, indigenous people and urban youth. These efforts are made stronger by Earthdance's global affiliation with the United Nations program 'International Year of Mountains'. The San Francisco event will support local non-profit organizations that include the Mayor's Youth Fund, Rainforest Action Network and Milagro Foundation.

SoCalFire friends, it's being held at a suburban park, and there are no specific plans for lighting up firetoys. Valerie's crew remind us that since they anchor our pyro community's comfortable relationship with the San Diego fire marshal very well, community respect is of utmost importance. come to Earth Dance in San Diego, but don't expect you can light up for sure, it will go with the vibe of the moment, with however participants and officials feel at the time, and no specific fire performance or practice there is planned. . . as of now. . . gotta flex wit da wind on dis one! Great line-up, highly tekno:

General hosts: Surreal Entertainment & The Raverhouse, Joey Scarfone surrealentertainment@hotmail.com
Earthdance's SF HQ doesn't know the details of this party to post on their website, but FireMike knew where to get em for us, props to Mr. Deserttrance of Nth & to Core Graphics for Arizona's rave site, Deserttrance www.deserttrance.com! If you can get out of town, FireMike personally recommends this one. In SoCal, a Massive is usually 5,000+ peeps. From many discussions with Arizona promoters about Massives there, which are counted from about 2-3,000 heads up, this may be the biggest Arizona party of the year, and the vibe in Arizona is mainly "purer" and friendlier than in SoCal today, in any part of our region.
Surreal Entertainment sez, "This will be our third year bringing Arizona this amazing festival of life. This event will open your mind and take your breath away. Thanks for your continual support. Enjoy the universe. Our mission is to unite the positive force of the emerging global electronic music movement. . .to provide the focal point for sustaining a dedicated global community. As a community, we actively support world peace by raising awareness for selected causes.
Two Super Stages that will make history and restore all hope
Props, Props and more Props
Massive Chill area
Free, food, candy, fruit, toys, balloons, tea, CDS, tapes and T-shirts
Please do not bring: weapons, drugs, alcohol, vicks, or open or glass containers
You can bring: bookbags, cameras, video cameras, candy and good vibes
This event will reinstill all P.L.U.R. values in the scene and bring back the vibe that the Arizona Dance Community was once legendary for. You bring the vibe and we'll bring the event that will restore your faith in the scene you love so much.
Tibet House of Trust: ". . . so far already four orphanages have been built where 65 orphans are living. All of this has been possible due to your help. So we want to thank you very much on behalf of our orphans." Palden Tawo, Director, Tadra Project. "We are the same human being all sharing the same planet." His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

Thanks, FireMike.
We were already on the case. We carpooled up from Ventura for the Earthdance ceremony in Santa Barbara.
There was at least ONE THOUSAND people there for the anti-war demonstration and march followed by the Earthdance at the beach.
Didja hear about it in the news? I'll bet not...
We hula hooped and spun white poi all day for peace.
What a great experience.

i just checked online pretty completely, naw, sorry, no one in all the SoCal major papers reported on Santa Barbara rally, nor Earthdance, shizza! & even in Santa Barbara, only local 1 i dunno is if Santa Barbara News-Press did, it charges online even for today's articles, so i skipped it.
which is why i'm totally glad to hear of it from you! only old mention was about Santa Barbara congresswoman votin against Iraq war approval, & that a protest was still being planned.
so did many of the marchers go to the beach with you for Earthdance?
spun white poi, whooo! ya mean unlit flag-poi, righT? how many peeps at Earthdance Santa Barbara, & how many spinners?
i went with Myst & FireProof to University Heights San Diego Earthdance, towards the end, where most were spinnin orange flag poi!
was good good vibes tho modest size, maybe 200 peeps spread in a smallish but very nice swatch of grassy park in a mid-funky hood, had mebbe 300 peeps max, prolly, good vibe, good DJs. pozee & Kinudin were there, heard Kinudin just left before we got there, HoP/OF's LLcoolPat was spinnin orange poi, & Veronica the Fire Goddess walked some stilt, i think. ya gotta come down sometime, meet all the spinners we got around here, and more are connecting to our network at the time, maybe a dozen from yesterday at Earthdance. also da core SDRavers crowd came out. few of us had good dance with a good-lookin gray-white specked dog too, (sorry dogbro, can't quite remember your human name).
Kinudin, hey, just missed ya dude, how was the party during the middle time?

FireMike, you got the basics right: Santa Barbara, USA, the mayor came out as anti-war, i.e. anti-invasion of Iraq.
She got heavily criticized--and the people of Santa Barbara have been turning out in support of her every Saturday.
While the demonstration drew about a thousand, the Earthdance celebration drew about two hundred. We made our own streamer poi out of white silk.
Details, later.
I have an advanced fire injuries class to to take...

Surfer With 'Positive Vibe' Is Mourned
The body of car-bomb victim Steven Webster is still in Bali; his injured friend is back in Orange County.
By Jennifer Mena, Times Staff Writer
A day after his death was confirmed half a world away, Steven "Webbie" Webster was mourned Tuesday by friends who called him a happy-go-lucky surfer, fisherman and golfer who shared his positive spirit.
Webster was killed last weekend in a car-bomb attack in Bali; he had gone to the Indonesian island on a surfing trip with friends to celebrate his 41st birthday.
One companion, William Steven "Crabbie" Cabler, arrived home weak and sick early Tuesday. Friends and family took him to Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian, where he was admitted with a broken shoulder, third-degree burns and an injured eardrum.
The two men were at the Sari Club in Bali on Saturday night when a car bomb detonated, killing nearly 200 people. A bar across the street, the Paddy Club, was also hit. Both are frequented by surfers from around the world.
Cabler, 42, of Newport Beach, and Huntington Beach residents Webster, 41, and friend John Parodi Jr., 42, went to Bali to surf. Parodi, who was not in the bar at the time of the explosion, spent days looking for Webster in hospitals and morgues. He identified Webster's body late Monday night. Family members are sending dental records to Bali to reconfirm his identity before the body can be returned home.
Word quickly spread Tuesday through the Balboa Peninsula neighborhood where Webster had an office. His family kept a vigil at his Huntington Beach home, where a sign outside read "High Surf for Steve Webster."
Friend Todd Garrison was among those who helped set up a makeshift memorial to Webster outside his office; it includes photographs of Webster, a tall, tan Californian with wheat-colored hair. He is shown the way neighbors said they will remember him: surfing the waves in Newport and holding up big prize fish. There are surfboards pressed against the office window and T-shirts on hangers that read "Terrorists Don't Surf."
Webster and his wife, Mona, along with son Dylan and stepdaughter Samantha, were fixtures on the shore. Webster, co-owner of the engineering firm S&S Commercial Environmental Inc., spent his lunchtimes surfing, friends said.
"We would surf at least four times a week. We are a tightknit community here, and we will miss him terribly," Garrison said. "All he did was give out a positive vibe, including advice that really helped people."
Nick Johnson, 17, looked up to Webster, who had taught him surf etiquette when he began surfing at age 8. He saw Webster the day before he left for Bali with the new Town & Country surfboard he had bought for the trip.
But other friends said they had been worried about the possibility of terrorist violence in Indonesia.
"It was not a good time to be leaving," said Mike Sarcoz, Cabler's roommate. "We all knew it. [Cabler] knew it.''
Cabler said he and Webster were in the back of the crowded bar, celebrating Webster's birthday, about 11 p.m. when they heard a blast at the Paddy Club.
"Before I could say anything, our building blew up.... I saw the roof collapse on him. I looked and saw young girls burning. I saw people burning," Cabler said.
He said he realized that he was trapped in the bar, so "I pounded my shoulder eight to 10 times" against a metal wall and "popped my way out."
"I ran down the street. I thought I was going to be picked off," he continued.
Two people in a passing car picked him up and took him to a clinic, but it was full, so they got him a hotel room.
"Every time I close my eyes I see the burning people," he said.
Although family members do not expect Webster's remains to be returned until next week, they are planning a tribute to him at 10 a.m. Saturday at 52nd Street and Seashore Drive in Newport Beach, said family friend Trent Walker.
