On Saturday September 18, 2010 the cast of “Ampey!” hit the streets of San Francisco
with some short and powerful vocal performances. We performed in front of Rasputin’s
on Powell Street, Powell and Market, Civic Center and 16th Street BART Stations
from 3p to 6p. It was very exciting to see weekend shoppers stop and take notice of our
grassroots advertising strategy. We didn’t introduce ourselves. We just entered
whatever public space we decided to perform in, began to sing and pass out fliers. A
special shout out to Inez for helping us with that. We would actually love for more folks
to help us pass out fliers during our next set of “Ampey!” animations. It’s a little bit
tricky to stay unified and pass out fliers at the same time. Our next set of animations
will happen from 5p to 10p on Friday October 1st at the Oakland Art Murmur and
3p-ish on Sunday October 3rd at Life Is Living in Defremery Park, 1651 Adeline,
Oakland. See you there.
