2.02.2009


It was a long, arduous journey but we made it. I am proud to say that I was there to bear witness. Now it's time for the next phase of this fantastic voyage to begin. Let's not stop the hard work that brought us to this point. Rather, let us redouble our efforts!

That said, let's get back to what's going down in beatown. It's been awhile since I've made an update and I'm pleased to say that a lot has been jumping off. Artists, promoters, DJs, and nightlife enthusiasts have been putting in a lot of hard work to make Boston a better place and it's paying off. A debt of gratitude for this is owed to the Greatest Minds participants who have been making it happen for months now. You too can put your head together with some great minds tonight!

Come to this event and meet Boston's most interesting people that want to make it work!

We also are finishing our ACTION STEPS for each of those areas and plan to present them at Hibernia Hall in February 2009. We are also working on the GREATEST MINDS Conference in June 2009. So stayed tuned.

We suggest that you bring flyers for your upcoming events and business cards to pass around.
For our conversations and feedback from people, there have been many new collaborations that have come out of the GREATEST MINDS meetings. Why not join in the fun!!

On a totally unrelated note, I just want to add my congrats to Erykah Badu and Jay Electronica on the birth of their baby girl yesterday afternoon. Celebrate life!
