Politaoke

I have to wait for 8 hours in Raleigh on my way to my show in Charlotte, so I’ve gotten to work on uploading photographs from most of the past shows onto Flickr. I hope soon to be adding some new videos in the next week or so. I’m preparing for the last round of shows, adding new speeches and passing out buttons along the way.

You for Office!

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 5 – 9 PM
55 NOTRE-DAME WEST (METRO PLACE D’ARMES)

The Art + Anarchy Montreal 2008 collective is pleased to invite you to the opening of a new exhibition in Montreal, *Dissident Art, *on September 5th from 5pm – 9pm at 55 Notre-Dame West (in Old Montreal, metro Place d’Armes).

The vernissage will feature performances by Diana Arce (Berlin),
showcasing her political speech karaoke Politaoke in Montreal for this first time (with laughable extracts from Brian Mulroney, Stephen Harper and more!), and The Shining Mantis (New York), engaging in a spontanteous chalk-on-black-wall drawing war between the collective’s two members.

Here is an update on where to get updates on all the Politaoke happenings across the US!

So the opening at the Hallwalls went really well. Many people decided to perform a wide range of speeches from various candidates. It was a very great evening and I can’t wait to see what tomorrow will bring. In the next few days I will post images as well as video and audio of the first show. Tomorrow the show will begin at 8:30pm and rather than closing at 9:30pm, the event will go to open end allowing everyone to perform if they want to.

Here are some of the playlist highlights:
