WOW--------

what is w. sun ra wanting to buy federal plots of land???? i never heard that b4!!!!?!??!?

Would be very interested in learning more about the "secret society" of Ra & Abraham. "Space Is The Place", etc. has never really done it for me in terms of what Ra was really up to.

Will an exhibit guidebook be available for sale?

lets talk more about this--- sun ra was buying plots of land to start his kingdom? what is going on here. tonight got a sun ra lp i didnt have: night of the purple moon! thought i had it, but didnt - so i got it!

From the website:

...Ra and Abraham were actively looking for expanses of land to annex via federal programs...

So I don't think they were looking to buy land as much as aqcuire it through federal grant.

"with Henry Grimes and gang"

...man, what a wild, in the mix board. I sometimes feel as if you guys are just so in as part of a generation that I can only remotely admire.

I heard about this exhibit, and wish I could go (writing a thesis/coping with kid stuff).

I'm not sure anyone would confuse me with being "in" but I became friends with Henry and Margaret a few years ago and look forward to hanging out with them this weekend.
