Who really gives a rat's ass who plays at  the DC101 festival?!?  Maybe you've never heard the station before.  Last time I checked, it was run-of-the-mill, top-40 alternative crap.  The people who listen, the DC101 fans, will be people who enjoy run-of-the-mill, top-40 alternative crap.  So, I'm guessing, by the descriptions at the top of this thread, that this festival has been concocted to perfection for the people who enjoy DC101.  If this festival was lined up with a half dozen indie/underground critical darlings, it would not only make no sense whatsoever, but it would be insulting to the fans that support the station.  If you're the kind of person who enjoys something a bit more original or interesting, this festival doesn't show up on your radar.

Is that the Greaseman?  Haven't seen him around in ages.  I have a quick story about that.
 
 If it hasn't been figured out yet, I'm an elem. school art teacher.  The other day I had a new student to my school bring in some smocks.  One just happened to be a DC101 t-shirt from ages ago.  It had the old logo with the lightning bolts on the front.  And on the back was Greaseman's signature in Sharpie...

You have my condolences.
 
 I've been there. Sort of. I paid my dues in both elementary and middle school art classrooms. Well, that was when I actually had a classroom. I was in the worst of the Baltimore Shitty ghettos; much less pay; no supplies; no cooperation from any angle; constant assults on me, physically, verbally, mentally and emotionally; a completely ineffective union who ended up working against us; and a whole lot more other crap that you just couldn't even imagine in your worst nightmares. At least, that nightmare for me is over and done with forever and ever.

i wish you were my art teacher...my art teacher was mean and always sent me to time out then gave me an N because i didn't do the work.( i was in fuckin time out!)
 
 did you always ask your students to bring in paper towel rolls and stuff?  did you tell them they could ask their neighbors and relatives?

Christ!  That's not flattering at all.  But I guess that was the point.

I don't work in Balt., but I can say that all of those things have happened to me (except the classroom, I do have my own) but not by kids, by adults, i.e. parents, administration, board of ed., etc.  And to boot, by wife and I are both teachers and can't afford a house in our district.  What a way to say thanks, huh?  If you are not teaching anymore, what do you do?  I'd love ideas.  It is a pretty narrow field with both a B.S. and M.A. in Art Education.

I have a baseball rule, three strikes-you're out (in this case time out).  You fuck up three times, see ya!  Normally I don't have that much trouble.  
 
 I don't ask for paper towel rolls and stuff.  The germ factor is just a little too frightening for me, when some booger picker brings in TP rolls with one sheet left.  My mind starts to wander, not a happy place!  The only thing I ask for are smocks and yogurt cups with lids for paint.

I'm almost afraid to say.  Let's just say I've been smacked on the wrist before for publically airing district laundry.  
 
 You never said, what do you do now?

Do you personally own an electric kiln that's just like Mr.Jellineck's?

I don't personally own a kiln, but there is an electric one at my school.
