After
chatting with some friends about there being so many dance
events to choose from, and the fact that with so many places,
it's difficult to keep a sense of community from being diluted
into the vast Bay Area scene, SFDance Shout was born. We didn't
want people who were new to the scene to learn the hard way that
not all dance scenes are created equal, and that's a good
thing.
Friends told friends who told friends.... The
SFDance Shout is the largest read dance newsletter in SF!
SFDance is dedicated to preserving dance music
culture in San Francisco and helping to provide information to
the public on dance music.
A Week in Review
I
entered the Greek Theatre on Friday night and climbed to the top
of a hill to listen to Jill Scott. Looking out at the lights of
Berkeley I watched the colored lights that were shining on the
columns behind the stage. Jill Scott sang about love, heartbreak, heritage,
and inner strength.
"Brother, don't let nobody hold you back... ", she voiced as
the crowd cheered. Jill would sing and dance on the stage while
talking in a poetic voice. She often would give out wisdom within
the music. "We always have the best intentions even if they don't
work out...", she said as her song touched the listeners' souls.
Lifting
the energy of the crowd and weaving her words through the outdoor
amphitheater, Jill sang, "There's just me, one is the magic #."
She was referring to how important it is to not lose self.
In another song she discussed revolution, and how "we are the
ones to make change." Powerful words within powerful music...
Even though Jill had been traveling for two weeks performing
before the show, she sang a final song while in tears after the
crowd urged her back onto the stage. "Thank you so much", she said,
"it is so cold out, and you are still here. I will never forget
this!"
"God
did not design love to have stipulation". - Jill Scott

Who Is Jill Scott?:
Words and Sounds
"She combines a beautiful voice with an extreme generosity
of spirit, making her music a dreamy, soulful delight"
Even
more NEW features!
The
SFDanceShout now has links to maps of each location and there is now
a new feature called Dance Tips. Also, be
sure to check out the weekly Dj Feature and
SFDanceRadio.
And, if
you can find Jacob (that's me) from SFDance this Friday at Aranji you may win a prize and get to
attend a future event for free. Everyone likes free:) Plus, this
edition features several free events for my unemployed
friends!
If you
see me on the dance floor this week, then say hello!

Featured Dj:
Dj Dragn'fly
I first met Dragn'fly several months ago
while she was spinning at a performance at Rise. Her variety and
"hard bass" cause people to shift and meld into the music. Her listeners
become alert, aware, and often cheer as she builds them up and takes
them on a musical journey. Although known for trance, her diverse
sets cross many musical categories. Its the variety of sounds that
she mixes that bring a crowd alive.
And... she NEVER spins the same set twice!
Listen to Dj Dragn'fly on
You can also hear her co-hosting the new "Radio Teknique" online broadcasting show on Tuesdays.
You can learn more about Dragn'fly at www.djdragnfly.com

This list is about finding places
to dance, and not pick-up scenes. Although we recognize the
sexual energy abound in the dance scene, we encourage you to go
out for the sake of the music, not to cruise to use. The same
with substances, there are definitely some things that can add
spice to life, but SFDance is about the vibe and energy, not a
place to score. Meow?
The SFDance Shout is brought to you by SFDance.

SFDance Energy
Bar Makes 12
- ~2oz. Squares See commercial bar comparisons
below (thanks to Bonnie for help with this recipe)
Non-wheat eaters substitute brown rice
flour and a non-reactive multi-grain mix for the blended
cereal.
½ cup oil substitute ( try to find something made from pureed
fruit) 1 cup Fructose
Sugar ( Twice as sweet as regular sugar.
According to the diabetic packaging--Fructose causes
significantly lower rise in bloodsugar because most
fructose is absorbed with only a small amount changed
into glucose. ) 2Tbl
Molasses ( gives the recipe its brown sugar
flavor) 4 egg whites 1 tsp.
Vanilla 2 cups 10 grain cereal,
ground in blender 2 cups unbleached flour ½ tsp.
salt 1 tsp. baking powder ¼
cup cocoa powder (optional)
Nutritional equivalent
totals* per square 291 calories, 2
grams fat, 63 grams carbo, 7 grams protein
*Pseudo-scientific values using volume
equivalents of nutritional information taken from product
labels
Cooking
instructions: Prep: Heat oven to
350 degrees. Use a regular kitchen blender grind 10-grain
cereal, one cup at a time. Set aside, the cereal will still be
very textured.
In a Kitchen Aid type mixer, “cream” oil
substitute puree (3/4 c. smashed bananas, which gives a slight
banana flavor, also seem to work), fructose sugar,
"full flavor" molasses, and egg whites. Add vanilla just
before the next step.
In a separate bowl combine flours, baking
powder, salt, and optional cocoa powder. Slowly add mixed
dry ingredients to the liquid mix which becomes very, very,
thick and sticky when combined.
Add chocolate chips if desired!
Spread very sticky mixture evenly into a
prepared (greased or oil-free spray) 9X13 pan and bake.
Bake 25-30 minutes. While still warm, cut into 12 equal
size squares.
