A MIND TRIP AND A KOSMIC DAYDREAM
June 2007(Oradell, NJ) – The rock band Kosmic Daydream was selected by Mind Trip
Productions for a feature role in the upcoming music film project, “Mind Trip to
Musicland’s: In the Face of Destiny”.
The film is a ‘musicfiction’, the story centers around the subject of music and
like science fiction, good against evil; a music science fiction fantasy. This
film is the sequel to Mind Trip's current project on DVD called "Mind Trip to
Musicland’s: Power Over Your Destiny”.
Mind Trip has cast actress/model Angel Monroe in a lead role. For the bands
that are a part of this feature film, it would be like shooting a music video.
Kosmic Daydream, dubbed the originator of the neo-psychedelic genre, is
comprised of Jeniffer De Los Santos (Kosmic Goddess), Jimmi Dylan (guitar), Adam
Hirschman (bass), and Jose Cruz (drums). The group performs extensively in the
NYC-metro area, and is currently recording an album.
Sol Music Management, which represents bands/artists like 'Anvil', 'Diamond
David Lee Roth', 'Dokken', 'Paul Di'Anno', and 'Twisted Sister', is also
involved in the project.

Concert Picks of the
Week
Lazlo (BlowUpRadio.com)
Friday Fairmont celebrates the release of their new cd, "wait & hope", at the Clash Bar. I may
not be a big fan of the club (read my review of Mod Fun's CD release show), but Fairmont's new
CD is really good and may be worth putting aside me dislike of the Clash Bar.

Two great shows this week!
Friday, June 22
SCREAMING FEMALES (CD release show,) The Measure (SA), Lost Locker Combo,
DD/MM/YYYY - The Parlor, 233 Hamilton St. New Brunswick - $6 ($4 with donation
of food or musical equipment for Willie Mae Camp for Girls), 8 pm, all ages
The Screaming Females are one of the most exciting young bands in New Jersey,
and there's no place better to see them than at a sweaty basement show in their
hometown of New Brunswick. A wicked combination of post-punk screech and yowl
and classic rock technique, the 'Females are guaranteed to blow you away. The
Measure (SA) are an up-and-coming pop-punk combo in the Ergs tradition, while
the Lost Locker Combo are a hilarious theatrical punk band from NYC.
Saturday, June 23
GLENN MERCER, Wild Carnation - Maxwells, 1039 Washington St. Hoboken - 9 pm,
$10, 18+
This is the CD release party for Glenn Mercer's first solo album, which follows
very much in the tradition of his classic Eighties band The Feelies as well as
his post-Feelies groups Sunburst and Wake Ooloo - murmured vocals, hypnotizing
riffs, undulating rhythms. Openers Wild Carnation has a Feelies connection -
bassist/frontperson Brenda Sauter played with the Feelies in the band's final
incarnation.

Concert Picks of the
Week
Gary Wien (Upstage)
Got two picks for this week. On Thursday, June 21st see the debut of Anton
Roolaart and his band at the Saint in Asbury Park. Anton's got a wonderful new
prog-rock CD out that is getting great radio play around the world. Then on
Friday it's Copesetic, Never The Nines, and Terminal Reynaldo at the Court
Tavern in New Brunswick. If you remember the former Brunswick band Shade,
you'll want to check out Terminal Reynaldo - several members of Shade are
involved in that band.

Jared Migden (WRSU)
Friday night will be another early show coupled with a late show in New Brunswick. First off,
David Hassle Cough makes their Southwest Burrito debut. Later in the evening, Terminal Reynaldo
returns to the Court Tavern.
