    All bands, slam fam to bluegrass move ass 
    metal, country grime get up reforge time
    symphony orchestras, big bands and choirs
    get it together, no time to wallow in the…

    shout loud from spires what inspires
    sharing live facts that transpire without tiring
    an army of artists from all walks working
    all sound systems all DJ’s ALL MC’s
    drop your mic-guard open up to neighbartists, please
    bring rap blues jazz reggae rave jam together
    oh wee la laa, we ready to perform in any weather

    promoters join forces, venues too, join voices
    we live as one family festival people this is true
    find the others and write and regroup
    build an undefinable genre-busting free-jazz beatbox troupe
    be mobile and drop your mobile for a while
    come out into the fields and greet fly masked smile
    all graphical wizards, kings of all boroughs, all trains
    graffiti street artist thrive, up bold holding reigns
    galloping tour buses and managers and labels
    and we’re off, come on, stop grooming stables
    turn the tables, take a task and cash that ticket
    it’s tea time and I bowling for collabs to make bind
    protecting wickets from the wicked at your neck.
    ready-break

    together as adjacent to the grass-roots change
    use art to channel love, and sometimes channel rage
    use sound, paint by hand, try to get off the page

    all bands and all artists, designers and singers
    rappers and poets and painters and sewers and
    funders and growers and drivers and cooks and
    dancers and actors and film-makers and sculptors and
    teachers and playwrights and coders and stage-workers
    clean up crew and lighting folk and studio hands
    and hardware brands and audio engineers and digital
    pioneers let’s get together and secure our futures.

    Come Together“–The Beatles.
