GREEN BUILDING EXCHANGE OPENS FIRST EVER YEAR-ROUND BUSINESS AND EDUCATION CENTER DEDICATED TO ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY BUILDING PRACTICES JULY 28 55,000 SQUARE FOOT FACILITY ENCOURAGES BUILDERS, DEVELOPERS AND CONSUMERS TO ‘THINK AND LEARN GREEN’ REDWOOD CITY, CA -- Green Building Exchange, a year-round center dedicated to vendors who adhere to environmentally friendly building practices, is celebrating its Grand Opening on Saturday, July 28, from 10 a.m. through 3 p.m. at 305 Main Street in Redwood City. The public is invited to tour the 55,000 square foot marketplace facility and check out vendors who have already become part of this timely and ambitious enterprise. In addition to learning first-hand about everything from solar panels to bamboo flooring, energysaving coil bulbs, and water-saving irrigation systems, Green Building Exchange will also feature organic wine, nibbles and informative presentations by experts in the green building industry. Green Seed Radio, hosted by Ginnie Waters and heard every Saturday, 2-3 p.m. on 960AM “The Quake,” is broadcasting live from the event. Green Seed Radio, produced by Green Building Exchange, is the first commercial radio show dedicated to green building and the environment. For more information, or to participate in this program, call Green Building Exchange at 650.369.4900 or email info@greenbuildingexchange.com. Visit Green Building Exchange on the web at www.greenbuildingexchange.com. “We feel that the time is right for this kind of marketplace, providing the information on every aspect of the current wave of interest in sustainable communities,” said Michael Schaeffer, President and CEO of Green Building Exchange. “As someone associated with the construction business, I was quick to realize that there was a tremendous interest in environmentally friendly construction, but there was no single source that could provide information on all aspects of the industry. Hopefully, we’ll fill that need here with the opening of Green Building Exchange.” Speakers at the event include Eric Corey Freed, founder of organicARCHITECT, recognized for the tradition of Organic Architecture first developed by Frank Lloyd Wright, will share his approaches to organic and ecological design; Sustainable Spaces founder, Matt Golden, who was highlighted on NBC’s “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” addresses a holistic system of identifying improvements in comfort, air quality and energy efficiency in the home; Green Builders of Marin founder, John Shurtz, will discuss healthy approaches to renovation, reuse of materials in building, and structurally sound building practices; and Scott Fossel, from Green Century Institute, will look at the vision of a whole system approach to ecological and economical urban development. GCI is a founding sponsor of the upcoming 2008 Eco City World Summit in San Francisco. About Green Building Exchange Green Building Exchange acts locally to impact the green movement nationally.

Pink Floyd Laser Spectacular
Where: Fox Theatre
Date: 2007-05-04 20:00:00
Type:
"Ask anyone who has ever attended a concert by the band Pink Floyd and they will likely comment first on the mind-melting visuals employed by the band as accompaniment to their psychedelic/progressive music. The amazing custom-designed lighting effects and the heavy use of lasers are what has always set apart a Pink Floyd show from every other touring band, great or small. In terms of sights and sounds working in tandem, a live Pink Floyd concert experience is wholly unique and second to none. While the Brooklyn heavy metal band Blue Oyster Cult were the first to introduce the use of lasers into a rock concert setting during the late 1970s, it was Pink Floyd who evolved lasers from a nifty parlor trick to an art form unto itself. Though the band members themselves will not be on stage performing this evening, the authentic recordings of Pink Floyd will be pumped throughout the confines of the Fox Theatre in full stereo effect as the well-seasoned crew of Steve Monistere’s Pink Floyd Laser Spectacular present a breathtaking laser light show computer-choreographed to the familiar strains of the Pink Floyd songbook."

Fred Eaglesmith
Where: Little Fox Theatre
Date: 2008-01-20 19:00:00
Type:
Award-winning singer-songwriter Fred Eaglesmith inspires comparisons to icons like Woody Guthrie and Bruce Springsteen, tops the roots music charts, and boasts devoted fans that include a slew of his fellow songwriters. High-profile tastemakers in the know — fellow musicians like Toby Keith and The Cowboy Junkies as well as film folks like Martin Scorsese and James Caan, to name a few — consider him one of the stellar musical and lyrical talents of our day. Though a decidedly grassroots artist in the thematic focus of his songs and how he pursues his career, playing some 180 shows a year across North America as well as Europe and Australia and releasing his own records under his cheekily-titled A Major Label imprint, Eaglesmith boasts an impact that far better known musical acts can only dream of. He has won a Juno Award — the Canadian Grammy — for Best Roots & Traditional Album and a Canadian Independent Music Award for Folk/Roots Album of the Year. "It is not an overstatement to say that Eaglesmith is one of the finest songwriters in this country," says the New Brunswick Daily Gleaner. "His canon of well over 1000 songs is stunning." It’s time to get hip to Fred Eaglesmith, cult sensation and Americana Music Hero, songwriter's songwriter and critics' favorite!
