			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://ideasforacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/images1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-4803 alignleft" title="images" src="http://ideasforacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/images1.jpg" alt="" width="193" height="261" /></a>ANTICS and SEMANTICS is Dan Bennett’s unique brand of comedy that is decidedly appropriate for the professional audience. It combines skilled manipulation of sports equipment and everyday objects with original wit, energy and enthusiasm. His Corporate presentation is a “Tour de Force” of extreme “Edutainment” that offers everything from hysterical history to physics made funny. And this can be customized for your organization’s needs or just offered as pure entertainment for your group.</p>
<p>What happens when a hilarious professor of mathematics performs a lecture with object lessons and world class juggling? You get nonstop laughter, “infotainment” and amazement. Right from the start Dan engages the audience with fast paced standup comedy and mesmerizing physical feats. The result is a highly entertaining and educational treat.</p>
<p>Making the common uncommon is one of Mr. Bennett’s signature routines. Using racquets and a can of tennis balls, Dan performs a brilliant original piece with the comedic backdrop of psychology. “Legislative physics” is another unforgettable topic by the funny instructor: basketballs spinning on each hand while doing a backward summersault, or one atop the other with the vernacular of quantum mechanics. “Soft landings for weighty matters” <a href="http://ideasforacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/images-1.jpg"><img class="alignright  wp-image-4804" title="images-1" src="http://ideasforacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/images-1.jpg" alt="" width="173" height="144" /></a>is the title theme for the corporate event and involves Newtonian physics, market corrections and a bowling ball being caught on the face!! Economics and the invention of baseball, evolution of soccer balls to volleyballs, and creative problem solving with Frisbees are just a few more themes covered by this distinctive presentation.</p>
<p>ANTICS and SEMANTICS:” SOFT LANDINGS FOR WEIGHTY MATTERS” is the answer for your corporate event. It is the merger of comedy, education and company team building. Dan Bennett is a mathemagician of the first order, a language and prop manipulatist of professorial proportions and world record legerdemainiac with a name you can swear by.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lawrence in his own words:  <a><img class="alignleft" src="http://www.lsguitarevents.com/uploads/5/4/4/3/5443969/8076118.jpg?346" alt="Picture" /></a></p>
<div>With nearly forty years of guitar playing, my background includes being a featured soloist for guitar concertos with symphony orchestras, playing at weddings and restaurants, composing, recording and earning a Bachelor of Music Degree in Guitar Performance from San Diego State University.I began playing the guitar in 1972. After experimenting with various styles, I decided to focus on classical guitar in 1978 under the direction of Vicente Gomez. Maestro Gomez  composed for classical and flamenco guitar and he and his music are featured in many famous hollywood movies in the 1940&#8242;s and 1950&#8242;s. In 1985 I pursued guitar studies with Los Romeros , the well known family of classical guitarists from Spain. From them I learned a new approach to the technical challenges of the instrument-a method of solving its seemingly complex technique in a systematic and relaxed manner. During this time I was residing in Los Angeles , then in 1987 I moved to San Diego to be closer to Los Romeros and enjoy more intensive studies. I also enrolled and San Diego State University where Celin Romero was on the faculty.</p>
<p>In the summer of 1990 I traveled to Salzburg , Austria to participate in a three week long master class of Pepe Romero. This was given at the Mozarteum in honor of the composer who was born there. That same summer I traveled to Malaga, Spain to attend a one week master class with 3 members of the Romero quartet. The following year, I went back to Salzburg to the same master class attended previously. In 1991 I graduated with a Bachelor of Music degree in Guitar Performance.</p>
<p>Since graduating, I have performed many guitar concerto&#8217;s and recitals. In 2004 he released his first CD, “Romantic Evening” a collection of classical guitar music to create the perfect romantic mood.</p>
<p>I am now near completion of  a long awaited CD of original music written  in the New Age and Ambient music categories for guitar with symphony orchestra.</p>

Rounding out the four piece ensemble (classic lineup) is crowd cheerleader and comic foil Brian Johnson..</p>
<p>The scale of STRANGELOVE’s theatrical stage production is unparalleled, save for the real article. Multiple projection visual programs assault the euphoric concertgoer’s senses and further the illusion that they are witnessing an actual Depeche Mode concert.</p>

He plays with an exciting down to earth swing beat.  Because Joz is a swing dance performer and teacher, he plays the beat the dancers want to hear. Along with the great swing classics, Joz also sings and writes his own original swing music and harmonizes beautifully with Ginger Berglund. Ginger, who adds a wonderfully feminine touch to the band, is a talented, beautiful singer who style is reminiscent the great singers of the 1940’s like Peggy Lee and Ella Fitzgerald.</p>

<p>As a kid, Sarah’s mother was a dancer, and her father a drum builder. Sarah has both a younger and an older brother who both play instruments as well.</p>
<p>Growing up, art, music – It was everywhere.</p>
<p>From an early age, Sarah’s parents recognized her love for the piano and did everything, literally, to help nurture that.  Not too long after she began playing, she began writing, and again- her parents did everything in their power to help encourage it.</p>
<p>Through the course of her life and up until this point she has had experiences, some great, some not so great, but all in all together the reason she does what she does.</p>
<p>It’s life that gives her the thoughts she puts on paper.   And a beautiful and talented job she does at that.  As <a href="http://ideasforacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/l.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-4756" title="l" src="http://ideasforacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/l-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a>both a creator of music and as a singer.  Sarah says, “I create music, and there is nothing I’ve found that compares to the joy I feel when I hear that the music I’ve written has become a part of someone else’s experience.”</p>
<p>Sarah was classically trained from the age of three.  Attended the Idyllwild Arts Academy and holds a Degree in Composition from UNLV.</p>
<p>Albums out: The Sarah Sessions, The Joshua Tree Sessions, Itunes Compilation</p>
<p>Expected Date of New Album Release: Late September 2010</p>
<p>Her song “I Won’t Let You Go” has been featured on <em>One Tree Hill. </em>Sarah can perform her own works, or perform more widely recognized repertoire of music.</p>
