Sleep with Circuit des Yeux @ Thalia Hall

SLEEPwith Circuit Des YeuxFacebook | TwitterAbout the Show:Doors 7:30pm / Show 8:30pmTickets on sale Friday 7/12 at 10amIt must be gratifying for SLEEP to hear the audience roar in approval when guitarist Matt Pike plays the opening notes of Dopesmoker, the live set version coming in around 40 minutes, slimmed down from the studio recording, which clocks in at a little over an hour and three sides.Years after the release of Volume One in 1991, Sleep’s Holy Mountain in 1992 and Dopesmoker in 2003, Matt Pike hard at work with HIGH ON FIRE and bassist / vocalist Al Cisneros with OM, heavy music needed one of its essential minerals back. In 2009, falling in on either side of NEUROSIS drummer Jason Roeder, SLEEP, like a wooly mammoth awoken from centuries of frozen slumber, once again walked the earth. You could almost hear the universe sigh in relief that SLEEP was back.2014 saw SLEEP release a single sided 12” with a new song, The Clarity, giving fans a glimpse of what would hopefully be more to come. And so, the wait began . . .All good things take time. In 2018 SLEEP fans will have a reason to break out their finest and get it lit because record stores all over the world will have the new SLEEP album.SLEEP has live shows slated for this year. Their studio work is tremendous. However, SLEEP in the live setting must be witnessed to be understood. That three people can create such a perfect, truly massive yet complex and dynamic sonic environment is what keeps their shows selling out. Truly, the band is not to be missed. May it never end.DISCLAIMER: Any attempts to describe the music of SLEEP render this writer almost completely useless. They are that good.PRESCRIPTION: Listen to Dopesmoker as often as possible and prepare for what is to come. - Henry Rollins

Flair Bartending WFA Yellow Certificate

WFA Flair Bartending Certificate - Yellow This 2 day course covers everything you need to know to start your journey into the wonderful world of flair bartenders. Each day will consist of 3 hours of learning and 2 hours of practice, Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday is exam day where you will be taking your WFA Yellow certificate exam, which will last roughly 20-30 minutes. Each bartender will take the exam one by one.  The course will run during the week but the exam will take place on a date on which the student will feel comfortable; wether it be the same day, 2 days, 2 weeks or 2 months after the course has run, as the exam requires practice and patience to get right. This course will grant you a Certification in Flair Bartending on completion; along with a White tin for taking the course, and a Yellow tin for passing the exam. “Flair bartending is the theatrical art of manipulating bar tools with style and grace whilst making exquisite cocktails with precision and speed”. To be a competent Flair Bartender, skill, dedication, motivation and a thriving passion to entertain others are required from any bartender who can create multiple, complex cocktails with speed and consistency. “Without the abilities of a good bartender, a flair bartender is simply a juggler.” With this new string to your bow you will notice an increase in bar intake, an increase in tips and an increase in your technical ability behind the sticks. You will also notice a new, confident bartender with a higher level of concentration and determination to get better and better. High levels of practice are required to reach the number one spot at the top of the WFA gradings. Which is why we have created a course specifically designed for the eager bartender in mind. With this course you will receive, a Mixology group certificate accredited by the World Flair Association, proving you have what it takes to perform behind any bar with character and skill, knowledge of the history of flair, and actual ability to manipulate multiple objects in mid flight, safely and professionally. The earliest record of flair bartending was bartender Jerry “The Professor” Thomas, who poured fiery streams of boiling water and flaming whisky to mix an original cocktail called the Blue Blazer in the late 19th Century. Flair really came into it’s own in the 1980’s when T.G.I Fridays hosted the first national flair bartending competition in 1986 called “Bar Olympics”. John JB Bandy was the winner of this competition and went on to train Tom Cruise and Bryan Brown for the 1988 film, Cocktail. The head instructor Brandon has nearly 10 years experience behind the sticks. With many accomplishments in the competitive field, working alongside the greatest flair bartenders in the world, in some of the best venues in the globe and with his Yellow Teaching Certification, he has dedicated his time, knowledge and passion to create a course fit for all abilities. The World Flair Association (WFA) realised that throughout the world, the standard of bartending differs from country to country. So they created gradings to set standards that can be used no matter where in the world you are. These gradings are colour coded, much like in Karate, White is the first grading with Black being the top grading (1st Place in a grand slam). This WFA accredited diploma course will expand on and perfect the techniques learnt in the introductory course. The WFA exam will cover a timed working flair routine, a timed exhibition flair routine and a timed speed round as well as a free pour test. Course Requirements This course is designed as an entry level course and as such is suitable for complete beginners, up to those who have little flair experience and wish to certify their knowledge of flair. Learning Outcomes Students attending this course are expected to leave having gained the following skills, competencies, and knowledge: WFA Yellow Certification Theory behind flair Competition and bar setup Safety and accident prevention Pours and cuts Flair pouring Garnish and ice flair Bottle – tin moves Simple craft flair techniques Practice with plastic bottles Practice with real bottles and liquid Fluid body movements Speed flair Working flair moves Exhibition flair moves Guest interactions A simple flair routine combining the whole course.
