A.D. spoketh in his Jan. 6 Icepack:
Welcome to 2010, Icepackers, where good and bad feelings mix and mingle in an unhealthy stew but with soft, CoQ10-drenched skin. Example: Is it good that Rich Wexler gives up his Sherman Arts Web site/booking gig to head to school, and find personal happiness? It’s luuverly for Wexler, but sad for the community. (I’m a crammer: everything all at once.) The just-out All Creatures Sherman compilation (37 artists!) celebrates 10 years of weird quietude with a release gig at Green Line Café (Jan. 15) featuring Eliza of Buried Beds, Stephen Bluhm and more. There’s also a Sherman cabaret starring scads of Wexler pals and film bits hitting National Mechanics Jan. 11. He’s passing Sherman Arts’ Web and booking to Emily Bate, West Philly muso and booker of The Mitten. She seems a sweet applicant for the Sherman spot — not replacement. No one fills Wexler’s shoes. Sob.
Sherman Arts, which dedicated itself to promoting indie arts events, will go by Quaker Inch Arts in Wexler’s absence. But before Wexler goes off into in the Ivory Tower, he’s looking to get 500 people to download his All Creatures comp that includes the likes of the Baird Sisters, Joe Jack Talcum and Birdie Busch. As of his mailing yesterday, he had 137 downloads, but help him get to the half-grand as a proper send-off, why dontcha? You can also download older comps for free. Just click here, scroll to the bottom of the page and unzip.
