2009-10-02T16:59:00.000-07:00

We are having our Team Hope Walk for Huntington's Disease. The Team Hope is a nationwide fund-raising campaign designed to provide hope and support for those touched by this devastating disease. Team Hope is a way to show the nation how a team of inspired individuals can join together to make a difference. More than a fundraiser, it is a time for the entire Huntington's Disease community to join together in a day of camaraderie, inspiration and above all, hope.
The walk is October 3, 2009 at the Taylor Pavilion in Belmar, NJ. Registration begins at 10:30am with the walk stepping off at 11:30am. We are asking volunteers to be at the Pavilion between 9:30-10am. The Taylor Pavilion is located at 512 Ocean Ave., Belmar.

Happy Birthday Bruce!

Dear Urban Word,

You guys did a show at my High School, and I have to say, I was quite inspired by it. Up until then, I had really looked down on free-verse, spoken-word poetry, thinking that the ultimate poetry was that expressed with periodic rhyme and meter, i.e. sonnets. However, after seeing your performances, I realize that true poetry is in meaning, not in meter. I was especially inspired by the story of Xavier, the deaf poet, as portrayed by Amanda. I make this compliment not to diminish the talent of those at the performance, as it was all both inspiring and entertaining. I hope your organization continues to do what it is doing, and if I do, in fact, end up going to school in the New York City area, I would love to become involved with Urban Word.
Sincerely,
Adam

This Guitarist is Amazing~~Bradford Tretola

Delta Blues tradition combined with heartfelt acoustic instrumentals and soulful songwriting.

2009-05-02T07:52:00.001-07:00

Hailing from the Garden State, Bradford Anthony Tretola grew up in a very influential musical family. His father a great Hammond organist and pianist, his mother a passionate woman with a love for the Beatles and all the music of the 60's and 70's. At a very early age Brad began soaking up his parents vast record collection. Paying particularly close attention to the music of John Lennon and the Ventures, he began to fall in love with pop music. But upon hearing Chuck Berry and Eric Clapton he became obsessed with the electric guitar. After his parents suprised him on his 9th birthday with a black Series 10 electric guitar and a Gorilla practice amp, there was no looking back. At age 12 he was performing in bands with guys twice his age. By 15 he had begun his career as a touring musician, which exposed him to the musical and cultural influence of cities such as New York, Memphis and New Orleans. Growing deeper into the sounds and feeling of the Blues and Soul music, Brad eventually migrated to Austin, Texas in the Spring of '97, where at 19 he began working with some of the greatest and most passionate musicians this planet has to offer. He says his time in Austin proved to be the most pivotal and influential time of his life. Known particularly for his electric, acoustic and Delta styles of playing as well as his ability to feel at home in a variety of musical situations, Brad has traveled the country several times over and has been blessed with opportunities to meet, perform and record with some of his biggest musical heroes, including Tommy Shannon and Chris Layton of Double Trouble, Robben Ford and Phil Keaggy. Brad continues to tour the country in support of his passion for performing the music in his heart and the pursuit of the moments that transcend time and space. ..

14th Annual Taste of Southern Ocean County Hunger Relief Dinner

2009-04-25T11:44:00.000-07:00

IN THE WORLD’S WEALTHIEST NATION, no child
should have to grow up hungry. Despite the devastating
consequences of childhood hunger, it is, for the most part,
invisible. Hunger doesn’t discriminate. It can affect any child,
even those you’d least expect. In Ocean County, more than
50,000 people live in poverty —one in every six is a child.
Since its inception in 1995, the Taste dinner has raised over
two hundred and fifty thousand dollars in an effort to support
anti‐hunger and anti‐poverty initiatives in our community.
The 2008 Hunger Relief Dinner raised nearly $50,000. The
money was distributed to these local food pantries:
Barnegat Food Pantry
Lacey Food Bank
Ocean Community Church Food Ministry
St. Francis Center Food Pantry
Ken's Kitchen‐St. Mary's Church
St. Stephen's Episcopal Church Food Pantry
Tuckerton Area Inter‐Church Food Pantry
In this time of recession the number of families in need of
assistance has ballooned to unprecedented proportions.
Our neighbors need our help now

Lyrics for today,

2009-04-08T08:56:00.000-07:00

Travellers

We stood in the moonlight and the river flowed
And God walked through the garden
A mist came falling down to the ground
I watched it all with no obligation
This is your sister, this is your brother
This is your mother, not somebody's dream
And all our lifetimes drifted through the trees
To that place of moments where all was certain
Travellers on an olden road
With all the baggage of our days and years
We're life's carriers to the next unborn
And I'll carry you
Till this great race is over

We stood in the garden
And the river flowed....

I would like to watch you sleeping,
which may not happen.
I would like to watch you,
sleeping. I would like to sleep
with you, to enter
your sleep as its smooth dark wave
slides over my head

and walk with you through that lucent
wavering forest of bluegreen leaves
with its watery sun & three moons
towards the cave where you must descend,
towards your worst fear

I would like to give you the silver
branch, the small white flower, the one
word that will protect you
from the grief at the center
of your dream, from the grief
at the center. I would like to follow
you up the long stairway
again & become
the boat that would row you back
carefully, a flame
in two cupped hands
to where your body lies
beside me, and you enter
it as easily as breathing in

I would like to be the air
that inhabits you for a moment
only. I would like to be that unnoticed
& that necessary.

Springsteen and his E Street Band rocked through a 30-song set, playing several classic tunes, including the opening song "Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out." They also jammed out favorites like "Badlands," "Born to Run," "Dancin' in the Dark," and more recent hits like "The Rising." Most agree, it was the best ever. The Boss was in great form, rocking until 11:50PM.

Ian Curtis
...then listen to joy division

A British film about the life and death of Joy Division singer Ian Curtis, starring a first-time actor sam riley...directed by anton corbijn...the screenplay is based on the book 'touching from a distance' by deborah curtis who also co-produced.standout performance by riley as the tortured curtis. samantha morton gives her usual stellar performance. all live joy division songs are performed by the actors. 'love will tear us apart' and 'atmosphere' are featured by joy division. the credits roll with a cover of 'shadowplay' by the killers.just a superb biopic....filmed in black and white with shades of gray...we see curtis's melancholic tortured soul.... he stands a man alone.
