COMPETITION IS NOW OPEN!
The Downtown Los Angeles Neighborhood Council is a grassroots-level advisory committee set-up by a 1999 revision to the City of Los Angeles Charter that created the Neighborhood Council system. We represent our community on issues ranging from affordable housing and sustainability to arts, land use, education, and public safety.
Our 28-member volunteer Board of Directors represents residents, business owners, public and private sector employees, the homeless, social service providers, artists, and educators across Downtown and is elected by stakeholders every two years. Past successes include ArtWalk and other community events such as Park[ing] Day LA, Project Homeless Connect, community mixers and advocacy on many community issues.
The Downtown Los Angeles Neighborhood Council logo competition is now open through May 12, 2009 and we're looking to redefine our image to reflect the qualities of Downtown and the neighborhood we so proudly represent.
How to Enter: Enter up to three submissions and help us define our organization by emailing your submission to logo@dlanc.com. If you have any questions, please email us at logo@dlanc.com All entries will be on display for public viewing at the May 14, 2009 ArtWalk! MORE INFO AFTER THE JUMP

“LoveLikeFire presents beautifully orchestrated rock in a style similar to that of Arcade Fire... Yu's girlish vocals soar over Farwell's propulsive pounding and Parker's thick riffs with an intriguing sweetness like that of Blonde Redhead's Kazu Makino on "Skin and Bones.” - Spin.com
“In today's musical landscape, a barren and passionless field, Love Like Fire rises above the clutter and makes listening to music enjoyable once again. Their sound is a mixture of Radiohead, Pink Floyd, Sonic Youth and The Killers all rolled up into a fireball of raw emotion and ethereal distinction... The band captured the complete attention of the entire audience."

KAMRAN’S BIRTHDAY BASH
So, yeah. My dad had me when he was forty… His bday is March 19th. Mine is March 25th. We’re both in LA and having a party. He likes Sinatra. I like Prince. Come party with the Persians. Join us in your best new-wave glam or rat-pack inspired garb. 1999+10: I’m thirty.
Like before, its for charity AIDS Project Los Angeles. Last year we made over $800. Having said that, its completely voluntary. Times are tough. Come have fun. No pressure on the charity but if you can give, either give at the door or donate via PayPal. Either way, NO GIFTS PLEASE! Your gift to me would be showing up and most importantly DRESSING UP.
Confirmed Performances by Summer Darling, vosotros, Love Grenades and Club Underground DJs [diana b. goode(underground / black candy), soft touch (underground / funky sole), supercrass (underground / am/fm)] all playing Prince and Sinatra all nite. Maybe more to come. - KAMRAN

What is in a name, like the one possessed by Nico Stai? Nico is an L.A. based musician and his new release, his 3rd in all, The Victory Of Miss Friday is his most decisive to date. The trappings of creating records has not affected Nico as it is apparent on his newest creation. The music is entrapping, grabbing your brain cells and lulling you into a beautiful stupor. Bob Dylan, you have company now …., someone who can create a stunningly simple acoustic piece and reign in a legion of fans, but with consumer friendly smooth vocals. The music on The Victory Of Miss Friday has engaging rhythms like with in the track “Scream,” which has ensnaring vocals of the pleasant and hypnotic gesture along with driving acoustic rhythms and above all, horns. Any artist that incorporates horns into their music is my hero. “The Skies Over Your Head” offers something different, a strumming bass line behind the acoustic guitar with Nico’s urging vocals lying overhead. Dead Pony was an advancement for Nico but this is the just deserts. Stunning acoustic movements with frantic moments here and there are Nico’s calling card. Go check them out and make Nico Stai your next musical love. Check him out this March at for his Monday night residency at Spaceland. -Jeffrey Easton

Echo Park Named One of Top 10 Great Neighborhoods
And when you hear that, you might find yourself asking which Realtor came up with that ranking. Luckily, this time there is some creditability behind the designation: the American Planning Association. They "singled out Echo Park because of its breathtaking topography set in the hills above downtown, historic architecture, pedestrian-oriented streets and stairways, and engaged residents who, over the years, have gone to great lengths to protect and preserve their community," according to an APA release (add: their website has more info and history on why EP was chosen) .... more after you click on the image!
