you should check out a couple of key online resources:
OM Community Message Board -- Positive Gatherings forum:
www.omfestival.com/ommb/viewforum.phpLots of current parties posted and updated frequently, you can also get yourself a login easily but this forum is viewable to all, as are many of the forums on this forum of vibrant, conscious and predominantly TO-based funksters.
(OM Community on Tribe:
tribes.tribe.net/omcommunity -- less frequently updated)
Then there's the OTHER tribe:
www.tribemagazine.com/board/ -- probably the most widely read party listings in town ....
... besides of course those of the critics at free weeklies NOW and Eye,
nowtoronto.com and
eyeweekly.com and of course on newsstands every Thursday
(gotta be a Facecrack ...er, Book ... member to view any FB links I believe, i.e. URLs below)
You can also sign up for the Promise/AlienInflux newsletter, a key resource "for friends and friends of friends":
www.nowtoronto.com/issues/2...vibes.phpwww.facebook.com/group.phpharvestfestival.org
And check out the Toronto BMan community and/or hit up Center of Gravity in the East end on Wed. nights to get hooked up on all things circus, juggling and fire-spinning related:
burnon.ca, and check the "related tribes" in this tribe's landing page
COG/Zero Gravity:
www.zerogravitycircus.com/ and/or
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero...ity_Circus for quick info
If you like the Afro-Latin, Caribbean and Pan-African beats, check out the monthly party Footprints -- not a rave though:
myspace.com/footprintstoronto and
www.facebook.com/group.php and watch for One Note (Uma Nota), a new series Footprints' DJ General Eclectic, Maracatu Nunca Antes and Samba Elégua (my band) are co-producing every two months at the Gladstone Hotel Ballroom (again, not a rave, but a sweet party) --- a new event series showcasing live percusion and song bands and DJs that share a similar musical aesthetics (Latin, Afro-Brazilian, Caribbean etc.)
That oughta get you started!
