Not Long Now...Stranded Bandits Korea Tour 2011!

Straight out of San Francisco The Stranded Bandits, a 3-piece country punk band, are breezing into Korea for a 2011 tour across the Land of the Morning Calm. Come and check them out with Sticky Fingers at Woodstock in Itaewon on Thursday March 24 and Pub 210 in Bundang on Friday March 25. 


"The Stranded Bandits found each other in the spring of 2010 and were stranded no longer. In the city of brotherly love, they rocked, rolled, and rejuvenated souls. But alas, it was not meant to last as lasses and classes left them stranded once more. One flew to LA, one flew to Seoul. One stayed in SF but apart, none were whole. Band together again, the three bandits shall. And on this land or the next, their sound will be heard once more."

The DRIPAN art walk was a roller-coaster of liminal awesomeness, everything we wanted and more.
There were words, motions, paint splashes and splotches, ears, eyes, hands, brains engaging and of course feet walking the art walk.


 The response and support was overwhelming and we'd like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone involved. All the artists, performers, business owners, supporters and audience members contributed to an incredible night of energy. 


Stayed tuned, work is still on walls and still on sale. We're going to rearrange a few things are updates will continue to come. More events are in the pipeline, watching this space and bounce over any ideas you have.

In the meantime feast your eyes on some evidence of the first few zones and Eric Scott Nelson's performance!!!(Courtesy of The View From Over Here)

DRIPAN: Public Service Announcement

See art at HBC and Maloney's Pub!! (Haebangchon/Kyungnidan)

HBC Bar in Haebangchon has been a staple of the local scene for long philosophy discussions over more than a few pints. HBC also has some great wall space which is why it's an official DRIPAN venue. Currently we have some work hung there and more to come. Get in, get a pint and check it out! (Find it via the DRIPAN map)

 














Clockwise :

• Juliet Mathes - 'Introspective'

• Lea Choi - assorted

• Anjee DiSanto - 'Blurring of the Species'

• Ripley Tao - 'Abasha'
• Casey Sword - 'Stevie Nicks '

Lea Choi

• 
  

 Casey's paintings were shipped all the way from San Francisco to get here, Anjee previously organized an art walk in Jeonju, both Juliet and Lea are local artists in the Haebangchon area and Ripley is an international man of psychedelic mystery.

Meanwhile Maloney's Pub in Kyungnidan is a great little place to listen to some live music and get a well poured pint of Guinness. It also boasts some decent wall space, which along with the Guinness makes it another official DRIPAN venue. Already some quality work is hanging there waiting to be seen. Get a pint of the black stuff and get involved! (Find it via the DRIPAN map)

From L to R:

• Anjee DiSanto - 'Swallowed'

•  Mike Hern- 'Reflections'
