SILLY FOR PEACE AND FRIENDLY FOR FUN!

yaaaaaaaay!!!!!!!!!!
the subway party is happening!!!!!!
here are the most important details.
get your costumes, instruments, friends and excuses to talk to strangers ready because there will be a fabulous
RUSH-HOUR SUBWAY PARTY!!!!!


when?

The Morning of Monday June 2nd at 7:30 AM sharp!
(yes it's very early so get some rest or stay up all night the night before) *If you don't think you can wake up on your own set up a phone tree with friends....you don't want miss all the fun do you?
*the party is schedualed this early because there has been great sucess at previous parties which have been this early. Everybody on the train loves the party because they are all on the way to work or on the way home from their night shift and they need some cheering up. most of us aren't morning people..but this is worth it.

where?

The north end of the platform at Downsview Station...once you get there just look for the other freaks.
*it takes about 20 min to get to Downsview from Spadina Station


what?

picture this.....
A normal early morning on the subway car. Suddenly people start to decorate the train with streamers and balloons and home-made art. People on the train exchange strange glances. Next stop - a drummer and other musicians get on the train and start to play music. More strange looks. Next stop, a giant fish and people in other silly costumes get on the train and start dancing, inviting others to join in. The cold mood of the train melts into a wonderful and unexpected celebration!!!!! hoooray it's a subway party!!!!

a subway party is a great way to start your day. you can dance, laugh, play instruments, make art, talk to strangers and participate in spontaneous acts of creativity and kindness. if you think of something you'd like to see at the subway party...bring it on!

*Another good trick to do is to dress up like an every day subway rider (you could wear a business suit, a school uniform, whatever). Sit and stare in awe as the party begins, but when someone asks you to dance, let your hair down, loosen your tie and get down! Other people on the train will be inspired by your liberation and they may join in on the grooviness.

why?

because nobody talks to each other on the subway let alone look each other in the eye!

because on a monday morning nobody expects a celebration and that is likely just when we all need one!

because subway parties are a great way to overcome apathy, loneliness and bitterness among other nastiness!

because SARS has made people afraid to interact with strangers and that sucks!

because the subway is a great alternative to smog producing cars!

because you'll never feel the same on the subway after you've been to a subway party!

because it's an idea that has been capturing peoples imagination and you can help to make it happen!

because people you'll never forget the look on peoples faces when the streamers and balloons go up and the party starts.

because it's boring to have your fun packaged, sold and served to you in a nice tidy little package.

because there is no better way to start your day than to dance with a stranger on the subway!

because you could make someones day!

because it's a great (and cheap) way to have fun!

SOOOOOOO.....

start planning now. get your party gear together and figure out how you can wake up early enough to get to the party.
(for those of you who can't make it to the party....hopefully you can make it next time).

MONDAY JUNE 2ND @ 7:3O AM DOWNSVIEW STATION
