"KRTVN Radio 6 and ODEN-K are thrilled to be sponsors of GanJam 4886, to be held at the Global Music Hall of Fame Amphitheater in Luxon. The concert is scheduled for three nights, May 29, 30, and 31 of next year. We will have three nights of music, and have decided to also do an RF Overnight for those who want to party until the Sun comes up. On our first night, we will feature Hip-Hop and Rock Acts, and this will be followed by the RF Overnight. Scheduled to headline Night 1 is the Hip Hop Act Riot Crew, the hip hop supergroup featuring members of Revolucion, Burning Money, and Dope Prophets. Both Salgo and Brown Paper Bag will also be playing on Night 1, as will other great bands and artists.
"RF Overnight will be something that we want to try this show to see about the feasibility of this style for future shows. Since these bands tend to be more adult oriented, the show will likely attract fans of the RF clubs in Kaliburg and Sulari to the largest livest RF show ever. Already booked to headline the Overnight is Tonya X, who is scheduled to take the stage at sunrise. Other acts include Christina Shakespeare, and Dave and the Drugs. We will have a full RF lineup and body paint will certainly be welcome, but of course, clothing will be optional.
"Night 2 will feature KME as well as three Gaduri Bands who will play the Jam as guests of LTD Records. We are excited this year to already have the commitment of three Gaduri bands: Cumbia Maestros Los Angeles Rojos, who toured Kalistan recently to sold out shows, as well as Sonara Explosion and Chaparra, the superhot Dance Musician. The Gaduri Bands will be guests of LTD Records in Kalistan and Los Angeles Rojos will headline the night. Kalistani Acts already booked for the show include La Sol, La Mas Mala, crooner Franco del Rey will also play. Night 2 will likely be a fan favorite for years to come."
"Finally, Night 3 will feature a return of Reggae and Funk to the GanJam. Headlining Night 3 and Closing the Show will be the Kaliburg Dub Alstars, who recently scored the first number 1 for a Reggae Artist in years with their anti-war anthem "Bedtime for Babylon". Also playing are roots veterans Goat's Beard and the 12 piece funk band Landmine, who are known for appearing at their shows with a smoke machine fueled by five pounds of the National Product, and which fires a massive cloud of smoke in time with the bass.
"In addition to the music, which is the main draw of the show, We will also see a restoration of the Arts Pavilions, which haven't been part of the GanJam for a very long time. This year, sculptures by Cathy Alverez, Bjorn Matthiessen, Donald Folksong, and Amy Black will be featured, as well as performance art by the Dahriel 5, and Nate Copper. Lots of other art will also be on display from across the Republic. The Art Pavilion used to be a main feature and since it is set apart from the main festival, it provides people will a nice place to take a break or to have some come down time from the previous night's activities.
"Tickets for the show go on sale in January, and can be purchased online from ODEN-K or KRTVN Radio 6. Additionally, KalAir will be offering group packages and other deals on flights from across the Republic and across the world to Kaliburg International Airport, with shuttle service to Luxon. We are trying to organize a subsidy with KalAir right now which might make all international travel to the festival free with ticket purchase. The Three Day pass is K95, while each day pass is K40. The Third Night is, as always free to all comers."
"1. We will be opening a joint programming firm with Lexington Entertainment, with the working title of 'LKG' for Lexington Kalistan Gaming for the purpose of developing open source games for the international and domestic market. As Kalistani Law requires that all source code remain open, here is an excellent opportunity to bring Hutori expertise and Kalistani innovation to the gaming world. LKG will focus strictly on building games that are made for other designers and players to mod extensively. The idea is to build communities around these games, ensuring that designers are well compensated, and ensuring that the experience is made much richer by the developers in the communities. Who knows what new ideas people can come up with on a stable and well designed platform, but we do not doubt that people will use these games to bring their own visions which far exceed the abilities of our programmers who are constrained to build something which not only will sell commercially, but also works together in a coherent engine. We also have word that Kaliburg Polytechnic is interested in building a designer major to attract those same developers to come learn how to make (and market) their own games.
"2. DMA Motors is interested in expanding into the Kalistani Market. Kalistani investors will work with the Hutori firm in three ways. First, Kalistan will permit the licensing of DMA dealerships in Kalistan. These will be stores where Kalistani dealers work with Hutori producers to sell DMA automobiles exclusively. Doing some market research, we find that while MoCo satisfies demands for regular utility automobiles, there is also a taste for foreign products, and there is a ready made demand for DMA electric vehicles which can compete even with MoCo electric vehicles to increase consumer options. The second entry into the Kalistani Market will be a joint venture plant to begin producing DMA automobiles in Kalistan. MoCo has an interest in investing in this, in hopes of ensuring that they actually participate in the decisions that will affect their own bottom line, but the lion's share of the Kalistani investment will come from private investors who see this as an opportunity to hedge on MoCo. The plant will be located in Suldanor, likely near the town of Reynoldia, which significantly opens the area up to economic development of all sorts in support of the new plant. And finally, a deal is being worked out with the major tech firm in Kalistan, KalMD's subsidiary KalTech, which creates ion batteries for consumer devices. KalTech will become the major supplier of lithium ion rechargables in DMA automobiles produced in Kalistan, an order which dramatically increases the Suldanor operations of the company, and has already led to a sharp rise in both KTH and KMD stock in the Kalsie.
"3. Two Hutori fashion houses, Nova Chic and Cooper & Probert are jumping into the nascent Kalistani Fashion market by opening retail outlets in Kaliburg and Sulari. These outlets, which will be operated by Kalistani Franchisees and will sell their respective brands exclusively, aim to supply high end fashion to prestigious customers, with the aim of eventually creating fashion which is more accessible to the average Kalistani. By selling high end goods in a retail outlet, even very prestigious ones, the brands themselves take a small prestigious hit, leaving the Endralonian firm DTG at the top of the game, but the trade off is in sales. Both houses have expressed a desire to provide high fashion at reasonable prices, the goal being to increase the exposure of the average Kalistani to fashion trends, and to put those trends into the reach of the normal Kalistani. In addition, these two Fashion Houses are planning on working out an arrangement in the near future with KalNaTexCo to begin buying high quality textiles from the Republic. This will encourage KalNaTexCo to expand its own operations within the Republic, bringing more acarage under cultivation in Suldanor and increasing the creation of all natural, synthetic and blend fabrics to sell abroad, likely making KalNaTexCo profitable for the first time in its history. It is also an option for the near future to open a fashion school somewhere in the Republic, where students in Kalistan learn from fashion designers in Hutori about design and fabrication techniques, both to supply the best and the brightest to the fashion industry, but also to improve the quality of the day to day clothing of our own people. This deal presents the best opportunity for long term growth in the Republic.
"All of these deals are tentative at this point, but on Kalistan's side, we merely need affirmation that they comply with our laws and then we begin putting together the capital investments within the Republic. The future is bright indeed for Economic Development in the Republic!"
