email me I have a Clubplanet Challenge for you. Lainie@clubplanet.com

True is some regards. But with over 10 million clubber in the US alone. I hope some of us will step up to the plate.

We need to support our community on this. If we can't rely on fellow clubbers, ravers, promoters, etc... Then we will become a dying breed. SUPPORT!

|| SIGN THE PETITION || URGENT action is needed to fight The RAVE Act! || ACTION ALERT Sign the online petition at www.buzzlife.com S 2633 - The RAVE Act For the full text of this bill, please go to http://thomas.loc.gov/ and search for S 2633 Purpose: Senators Grassley and Biden on June 18th proposed the Reducing America's Vulnerability to Ecstasy Act of 2002 (S2633). This RAVE Act is in the Senate now and is awaiting a vote. This proposed bill focuses on establishments that feature electronic dance music. Under this bill, the federal government would have the power to prosecute law-abiding, tax paying venue owners and event promoters for the actions of their customers. Status: This bill is awaiting a vote in the Senate and can be voted on anytime on or after July 8th, 2002. Background: Senate Bill 2633 is an attempt by legislators to reduce the illegal use of ecstasy by re-writing Title 21 U.S. Code Section 856 (aka the "crack house law") so that it can be easily used to shut down electronic dance music events. This legislation adds a $250,000 minimum civil liability clause to the existing criminal penalties of up to 20 years imprisonment and possible $500,000 fine. This legislation could have a devastating effect on the electronic dance music community. The RAVE Act along with other bills such as H.R. 3782, known as Clean, Learn, Educate, Abolish, Neutralize, and Undermine Production (CLEAN-UP) of Methamphetamines Act of 2002, seriously jeopardize the liberties of law-abiding promoters and partygoers. Language used in both bills specifically target electronic dance music, even identifying events or raves as places with bass heavy sounds and repetitive rhythms. Targeting a music genre clearly violates our civil freedom. For more information on the effect this could have on you, visit www.aclu.org and search for "rave". What You Can Do: Take action NOW! S 2633 was introduced under special rules and could be voted on as soon as July 8th, 2002 1. Sign the online petition, go to http://buzzlife.com/buzzdc/page.cfm?pg=contests&contest_id=13 2. Write or call your respective Senators and House Representatives and make it clear that you want them to vote against the RAVE Act in the Senate, and the CLEAN-UP Act in the House. You can contact your representatives by calling the Capitol Switchboard at 202.224.3121. To find your representatives, go to http://www.vote-smart.org/. 3. Spread the word! Tell your friends, family, coworkers to sign the petition and call their representatives. Some Points to Make: The electronic dance music industry and culture has existed for 20 years. There is a viable industry of electronic music professionals that in no way profit or promote drug use. Electronic music is a part of our mainstream society. Corporate entities such as Volkswagen and Gap Inc are currently featuring this music in their commercials. Law abiding, tax paying venue owners and event promoters should not be held accountable for the actions of their patrons. Electronic dance music has saturated the US at nightclubs, concert halls and festivals, as well as on TV, radio and cable. It is a form of artistic expression, which is NOT synonymous with drug use.

JULY 4TH DEEP DISH @ BRAZIL HAMPTON BAYS, NY LIMITED TIX AVAILABLE DEEP DISH TICKETS Grammy award winning DJ duo Deep Dish are two of the most well-known and respected artists/producers in electronic dance music today. Recently honored as Rolling Stone magazine’s #2 pick for the year’s “Best Dance/DJ Artist”, Deep Dish is poised to continue where they left off following an exciting 2001. Ali ‘Dubfire’ Shirazinia and Sharam Tayebi, the Washington, DC-based DJs known collectively as Deep Dish, first rose to prominence following the 1998 release of their groundbreaking debut album, Junk Science. Since then, the two have spent the bulk of their time trotting around the globe at the request of the world’s most famous clubs. Characterized by diverse and unexpected grooves, Deep Dish continues to enjoy mainstream success and underground respect. In addition, DEEP DISH ranked #10 in DJ Magazine’s (U.K.) Top 100 DJ’s readers poll for 2001--a direct result of constant touring and well-attended residencies from 1015 in San Francisco to Buzz in D.C. to The End in London and beyond. This month, they set off on the second leg of a DJ tour in support of Global Underground. Just as active in the studio as the DJ booth, Deep Dish has been called upon to employ their innovative remix style to hits by top artists such as The Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson & Janet Jackson, Dido The Pet Shop Boys, and N-Sync. So it came as no surprise when Madonna decided to get in on the act by choosing the guys to remix the debut single from her latest album Music (Maverick). Resulting in an infectious dance floor hit, the reworked track won dozens of accolades, including a Grammy award nomination for “Best Remixer of the Year.” Madonna was so pleased with their remix, she invited Deep Dish to warm up the crowd for her one-off North America live show at New York’s Roseland Ballroom. <p> In recent months, Deep Dish has continued the fevered pace that has made them two of the hardest working guys in dance music. They provided music for a number of Versace fashion shows in Paris, Rome, and Milan. In the ensuing months, they released Yoshiesque 2, and embarked on a global tour that included Tokyo, Ibiza, Norway, Moscow, and major cities within the US. The appearance in Russia inspired the most-recent installment of the much-lauded Global Underground series, featuring the guys at Moscow’s renowned Club XIII. Finally, Deep Dish won their first Grammy for “Best Remixed Recording” for their take on Dido’s “Thank You!” JULY 4TH DEEP DISH @ BRAZIL HAMPTON BAYS, NY LIMITED TIX AVAILABLE
