EventWorks Is Buzzing With Anticipation! Earth Wind & Fire Live This Week!

-

Dear Friends!

There is a special buzz going through the office this week! We are busily setting up for "Hooray Los Angeles", the Final Night Closing Party for the 2012 International Pow Wow. We are expecting 3,500 guests and a lot of amazing entertainment but the main live concert is something we are all especially looking forward to!
Courtesy of the Grammy Museum, Earth Wind & Fire will take the stage and we will all stay late, whether we have to or not! Read below how DJ Matt feels about the legendary EWF!



"Probably one of the hardest things I've been asked to do in recent history is having to choose one, just one,  Earth Wind & Fire song, out of a catalog of 20 studio albums, 4 live albums, and 62 singles,  
and with a music career spanning over 40 years. And PS, in my book, you'd be pretty hard pressed to find an actual bad EWF song. Seriously. Scientists have recently discovered that the music of EWF  
is just as potent and powerful as any element known to man. Don't even get me started on how many musical careers would not be (Michael Jackson, Prince, every single 90's and up R&B act) if Earth Wind &  Fire didn't happen. You getting what I'm saying? I chose the song "Fall in Love With Me" because it is but one of countless examples, of their untouchable genius.  This song is one of those hybrids of  
everything: jazz, funk, soul, R&B, electronic, horns, rock, percussion, that I don't know any other act that could even attempt.  The EWF are so good in fact, I think it should be mandatory to learn  
about their music and influence in grammar school, along with the other essentials, like reading writing and arithmetic. Nuff said I think"  : ) ~ DJ Matt Cornwall

Site Report from The Fabulous Forum in Inglewood

We recently had a Fabulous Tour of the Fabulous Forum, courtesy of our friend Jill Przelenski, Director, Special Events & Family Entertainment. In a nutshell: the re-invented Forum deserves the media hype it received. Eagles' Glenn Frey exclaimed: “The Forum is the best sounding large building anywhere in the world. Take my word for it, we’ve played them all.” It also offers exquisite event space possibilities that allow us to create a VIP Experience of any size! The legendary Forum Club serves as special entrance for private and corporate events. It's a VIP Experience from the first moment onward as this area has special parking privileges and street access.  Painting and maintenance crews were hard at work inside and outside of  the new hall that reopened in January 2014.  Jill Przelenski: "We don't allow any wear and tear. Paint, carpets, furnishings - everything gets lots of attention and is constantly updated." Forum Red, inspire...

San Luis Obispo Museum of Art - wrapped in The Red Line by Doron Gazit. Since we last checked in with Doron Gazit, the artist and industrial designer has lined multiple locations in California with The Red Line and his art work is currently on exhibit at the San Luis Obispo Museum of Art as well as The Loft at Liz's in Los Angeles. He is being mentioned in one breath with Cristo! We look forward to working with Doron to wrap an environmentally themed event. We were happy to report on The Red Line at the Dead Sea in September 2015. In the 8 months since, Doron has installed his environmental awareness art project in several locations in drought ravaged California. As always The Red Line concept highlights the impact of Global Warming on the environment. In December of 2015, The Red Line snaked through the Pyramid Lake burn area, just North of Los Angeles. Doron Gazit: "After my Red Line installation in the sinkholes of the Dead Sea, I continued to draw the line...
