Bowery Songs

roughly 24 years old. This, in part, is due to our desire of to help eliminate stress in between the major test taking periods. This will allow graduates and undergraduates to experience a night of letting go of their worries and enjoying their time out at a live musical event for a reasonable price. With this intention, a handful of artists have agreed to team up with us to assist in creating the desired effect. We will be mixing genres and sounds in a way to appeal to an overarching audience, but still allowing them to express themselves individually. From soul to rock and pop punk, we will be providing a diverse show with hopes of appealing to a diverse young adult audience and persuade them to attend. Let Go & Let Live will be held at the Bowery Ballroom in NYC, on November 10th , 2017. This will be the first run of our event which will determine if we will continue to hold it and even if we will grow it.

Mission, Vision, and Values Our mission is to create an event that allows students a break between midterms and finals, giving them an opportunity to relax and express themselves in a loud and upbeat environment. Giving them a chance to break away from their schoolwork and enjoy the music and atmosphere. Our vision is to communicate to our audience that your grades do not define you and to not let them control your life. We hope that…

In the initial three chapter , Jimmie battles an rival gang, a part of his own pack and strikes his sister. His father kicks his child and battles with his wife. Maggie drags the distress Tommie down the road to the apartment. her mother who also does violence to her spouse and destroys the furniture and beats…

Maggie and the American Dream The American dream is a cultural phenomenon among Americans, the belief that you can become better than the situation you were born into. Many people, in real life and fiction, are examples and success stories of this dream. Many other people, however, fall short of reaching their goals. In Maggie, A Girl of the Streets by Stephen Crane, that idea of the disillusionment of the American dream is on full display. Crane shows disillusionment through the setting…

In “Song of Soloman”, Morrison tells a remarkable story reflecting the absence of a father figure in African American homes. Instead of looking at the absence of the black man in a blackm family, she depicts this men not as traitors or deserters, but as strong, exploratory spirits providing a solid foundation for their children, even if his absence affects them. Morrison introduces the imagery of flight, using this to capture a vast foreshadowing to the family’s changing aspects of “Song of…

One of the more neglected parts of the Bible is the Song of Songs (also called the Song of Solomon). Although it is easily found, right in the middle of the Bible, it is a book that is rarely read and hardly known; usually it is known to Muslims through just one verse, which we will come to later. Such neglect does not befit any of God's word, because as it says elsewhere in the Bible: “All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in…

The Song of Songs, additionally referred to as the Song of Solomon, is predominantly known for its direct contrast to other sections located within the Old Testament. Its name ‘Song of Songs’ strongly implies that it is the most substantial of songs. When compared to separate portions placed in the Old Testament, differences such as the Song of Songs’ lack of vengeance, its use of poetic devices, and its enigmatic references to God is enhanced and highly emphasized. Although violence and…

The most obvious ones to me were in teaching types of literature and figures of speech. I decided to make this a Monday activity, to add energy and interest to my classes on a day that would benefit the most from it. I wanted to be sure to pick songs that fit my curriculum needs but I thought it was also important to use music of a variety of genres. I looked through my music collection initially and chose four songs. My plan was to use the first verse or two of each song, display the lyrics and…

started when I was babysitting one night and 8 mile, a movie loosely based on the life of Marshal Mather’s better known as Eminem, came on (don’t worry, the kids were already sound asleep). I loved the movie and the music in it so much that I started researching Eminem’s life. I mean the man is a lyrical genius how can you not become slightly obsessed with him at some point in your life. I started listening to his music. I bought all of his albums. Every last one. And out of all 19 albums, the…

Some say music is the key to the soul, and the way music is turning in recent years many believe it is making a turn for the worse. Ten years ago with songs like, “We belong together” by Mariah Carey and “Let me love you” by Mario showed more thought and substance when it came to the concept of love and intimacy. The songs created in past years showed more conservation and used clever metaphors to insinuate sexual relations, rather than blatantly stating it. In more recent years, with songs like…
