Feb 4: Headphone Disco @ 8 PM http://headphonedisco.com/ Headphone Disco is the silent party phenomenon that’s been rocking colleges, festivals and clubs from the UK to Uganda for the past 5 years. Surreal, insanely popular and completely unforgettable the show and Headphone Disco brand have become one of the most talked about and sought after acts in the entertainment scene in years. Unfamiliar with the concept? Take a room /tent/field full of party-people, give them all a set of specially made two-channel wireless headphones and have two DJs broadcast to them over two FM channels simultaneously. Watch as the crowd chooses their DJ with the flick of a switch then ‘get down’ to two completely different styles of music, at exactly the same time to a soundtrack that only they can hear. Taking part is amazing; watching from the side is just as much fun this show really does have to be experienced to be believed. The event sponsored by the Wesleyan Activities Council (After Dark Committee.

He started playing as a 'street performer' at local venues around Los Angeles. As a street performer Josh engages the crowd and creates his own concert hall by playing pop, jazz, hip hop, country, gospel and comes up with an improvisation that is entirely his! Through this humble 'pay if you like it' approach Josh has made the acquaintance of the entertainment elite. Josh has sold over 45,000 demo CDs from the trunk of his car. Josh has performed with the Los Angeles Ballet Academy and was featured in the 2010 NBA All-Star Game commercial narrated by the actor Common. In September 2011, Josh recorded a track for multi-Grammy award winner Cee Lo Green. In November 2011 he performed on the Ellen Degeneres show.

Feb 21: Poetry Night: Carlos Robson & Carlos Andres Gomez @ 8 PM http://www.vwc.edu/student-life/ A great night of poetry from two amazing men... Carlos Andrés Gómez is an award winning poet and actor from New York City and a former teacher and social worker. He has toured all across the country and is the 2006 Toronto International Poetry Slam Champion. His work draws attention to challenging and often ignored social issues and delivers an empowering message built on the belief that everyone is "distinctly beautiful." His new album, "Fate by the Throat," was released in August. After listening to the amazing talents of Carlos Andrés Gómez, continue on with Carlos Robson. Carlos Robson of Charlotte, North Carolina's Concrete Generation never thought he would be a writer, much less a poet. But as long as he can remember, he's always wanted to be a storyteller. And since touching his first spoken word stage in late 2005, he has done exactly that. Currently one-half of the Southern Comfort Tour, he is taking his experiences to the nation with his dynamic ability to blend soul shaking stories of love, loss, and redemption with his stylistic re-interpretations of spiritual hymns and children's songs. The event sponsored by the Wesleyan Activities Council (ICE Committee). Location: Hospitality Suite 8 p.m. For more information, contact Jonathon Snow with Wesleyan Activities Council at 757.455.3383 or e-mail josnow@vwc.edu.
