1800 Market @ OctaviaTim'm is a funky fabulous performer who spits lyrics ‘bout poetics, politics, or the country side, and he's proud to be a memba of the Deep Dickollektive tribe. His book and CD are in the process of being weaved together to produce a Hip Hop theatre work, tentatively called “7th Breath”. He expects to tour this work in early 2005. Though in DC, 25 is still very much active in this band of Diasporically Displaced Colored Boys. More information about Tim’m at www.reddirt.biz
Transition consists of the next wave of angsty teen idols, Butch Greenblatt and Crystal Vines. They came together at San Francisco State University where they study their hot intellectual asses off. They express their broken hearted struggles through emotional rock confessions. This contemplative trannyboi and hot luscious engineer lady lover are going to rock your genderfucking socks off! Soon to come: www.transitionrock.net!
