    .....................BEST KEPT missive May 22, 2002

    Whaddup you beautiful peoples!

    What-what is that bright...sh-shining orb outside? It's...it's lighting up
    the sky, and when I stretch my arm out as far as it goes out the window,
    it...it feels warm.

    Ahhhhh...THE SUNSHINE!

    So easy to forget. Yes, it was only another FULL DAY OF DOWNPOUR yesterday
    after a nice sunny weekend, but isn't the saying 'April showers bring May
    flowers'. The operative term here being April showers. So take 30 seconds
    now...close your eyes...and start singing to yourself this mantra in a nice,
    soft voice:

     'summer, summer, summertime...time to sit back and unwind...'.

    We'll bring on the 'hot hazy humid 40+ C' gods in no time...

    To get the psychic energies flowing in the right direction:

    :::::TONIGHT:::::

    The BEST KEPT gyals welcome Jah Reverend to the CHRY studios for a serious
    throwdown of all things dub, roots, and dancehall. Reverend's is version
    master extraordinaire, playing all over Toronto for the last few years and
    bringing the healing sounds to all massive. If you're a fan of riddims,
    don't miss this, and definitely don't miss out on Reggaemylitis II, going
    down tomorrow (Thurs May 22). Reverend will be throwing down tunes
    alongside selectahs Chocolate and Jelly, while The Resinators and The
    Movements bring live dub and reggae to the place. Also performing will be
    guest vocalists King Ujah and Wayne Passion, and guest MC Whitey Don. Phew!
    All happening at Kathedral (651 Queen St. W @ Bathurst), and only $10 at the
    door.

    Yeah yeah!
