Bibit Magnus is a tall cool drink of water, in a glass or on the Rocks. She will astound you and leave you crying in your Beer or laughing in the Wilds. Whether portraying incredible likenesses of herself or her other 'selves' you will feel really feel that you understand the pain, the sweet merciful humor, and utter humaness, with all the frailties, reckonings, and command of a well hung army drill seargent (nope).
A virtuosa! A songstress! Insane nonetheless! Singing deeply in throaty bass or a well pitched descant soprano, the variety of influence and creativity with this vocal artist will leave you wondering if you just heard what you just heard. Stay tuned for samples of this artists work, coming up soon on this sight.
From Jazz scat to Beat boxing...A well set of pipes! She toots in many languages and styles!

If you have any friends who would be into auditioning send them our way. We will give you $20.00 if it works out. And could you keep this comment up so maybe someone will see it? Thanks again for being our friend, you rock.

State Representatives Frank Boyle (D-Superior) and Mark Pocan (D-Madison) have announced plans to formally introduce a bill, "The Jacki Rickert Medical Marijuana Act" seeking to protect Wisconsin Medical Marijuana patients from State prosecution. It is now being circulated for cosponsors and will be formally introduced and given a bill number in early October.
Ten years ago in September 1997, Rickert led 15 medical marijuana patients on a 210-mile wheelchair "Journey for Justice" from Mondovi to Madison, which reached the Capitol on Sept. 18, 1997. The 1997 Journey for Justice was dedicated to the memory of Jacki's late physician, William E. Wright, of Mondovi, who gained approval for her participation in a federal medical marijuana program only to see George Bush the elder close it to new patients in 1992.
Contact your Assembly Representative and State Senator, and ask them to join as co-sponsors. Call the State Legislative Hotline Toll-free at: 1-800-362-9472, or you can send a pre-written letter via this link, but personal letters or phone calls are better.
Hey Hey,
Just checking in to see how things are going these days? Looking forward to meeting up at a show at some point. Keep in touch.
Cheers,
Matt & Kane
