**********************************************************************
FEB 28TH “THE WILMINGTON TEN...SPECIAL SHOWING:
Local filmmaker Francine Decoursey brings her work in progress to The
Gypsy. The Wilmington Ten were a group of civil rights activists that
spent nearly a decade in jail after being convicted of arson and
conspiracy in 1971. The case became an international cause celebre
amidst widespread beliefs that the individuals in the case were only
guilty of holding dissenting political beliefs. Amnesty International took
up the case in 1976 and the convictions were finally overturned on a
technicality in 1980. **A panel discussion with 2 of the members of the Wilmington Ten will follow the film.**

LIVE @fterwards, STRESS APE ( Chicago,IL) The band literally sounds like white noise, seemingly overlaid with bootlegged tapes of some disturbed soul's primal-scream therapy session. When grooves and harmonizing occur, it's purely accidental—the intentionally crude recordings only resemble songs in that they contain repeating parts. The rest is random.
