On Friday, February 29th 2008, Orlando's celebrated performance artist, Brian Feldman will leap off of a 12-foot platform every 4 minutes, for a total of 366 leaps, falling a total of 4,392 feet or 0.83 miles in all.
The piece was designed for Leap Year Day because it is an extra day in the year, to make people think: "How are you spending your 1,440 minutes?"
Brian is searching for volunteers; visit www.BrianFeldman.com for information. Featuring the scenic and lighting design of Curtiss Lee Mitchell and sound design by Jason Kupfer. Also appearing in this video is Terry Olson, Director of Arts & Cultural Affairs for Orange County.

The first ever ELLA Music Festival took place at the Rogers Building in downtown Orlando in October 2007. The festival was a celebration of female singer/songwriters and female fronted bands.
In this video, one of the performers, Rachel Goodrich, turns the tables and interviews our host Becky for a change! We also get a sample of Rachel’s musical stylings in the background, recorded upstairs just minutes earlier.

This weekend Becky and Ryan will be attending and videotaping the 2007 E.L.L.A Music Festival at the Rogers Building (the old DMAC at Pine and Magnolia). The event starts at 7PM Friday and Saturday, October 5th & 6th.
These are the sort of events we really love. Local artists representing a niche, but with a message strong enough to reach a wide audience. Instead of waiting a few years for this event to gain popular acclaim, you can be part of the very first adventure by our friends at Gamble Records.
There will be some amazing female-fronted bands at this festival:
Friday October 5th
The Actomatics, Geri X, Victoria Lynn Shultz, Channing Deren, Jenny K. Surrounded by Wolves
Saturday October 6th
Raffa and Rainer, Sunny, Jen Pumo, Rachel Goodrich, Holly Riggs
Tickets are $10/day or $18/two day in advance and $12.50/day or $20/two day at the door. A Portion of Proceeds will benefit: Florida School of Herbal Studies; Simple Living Institute; The Solilla School 4 Creative Kids.

47 E Robinson St is the location of the new B&S Daily Market. Ryan Price talks with Manny and Ben about freshly roasted Volcano Coffee from Longwood, FL as well as a selection of beers, wine, magazines, newspapers, drinks, cigarettes, snacks and other daily needs. B&S is a fantastic alternative for those seeking a less corporate cup of coffee and friendly service. Did I mention free Wi-Fi?
