If there is only one motivational seminar-cum-cult rock show that you need attend, it’s this one.
In The Power of the Crystals, charismatic visionary James Call [who also happens to be the frontman of Astoria band The Missing Teens] walks through the seven habits of highly destructive people, along with the corresponding crystals. The codified philosophy denounces paths that claim inner peace is the way: for millennia these charlatan beliefs have only led to wars and misery. The true path to self-actualization is focusing outwards, with twin drives of sex and anger to guide the path of destruction. Also procrastination seems to be a key mix to this self-destructive cocktail.
Ted Tappert conducts the interviews with a journalistic verve that pierces as much as enlightens the audience to The Power of the Crystals.
You will chant your way to victory above all. You will know that life is not zero-sum game, but full of zero-sum losers with one-sum winner: you.
It’s a challenge.
It’s a promise.
It’s Power, Ultimate Power, over all things in your life that you’ve been powerless against.
And the seminar is happening now, so go frickin’ see it. Or don’t – be miserable for the rest of your life if that makes you feel good.
From the Astoria Music & Arts website:
The Power of the Crystals is combination self-help seminar, cultist ritual, live rock show, and play. It's Astoria Music & Arts' first foray into the theatre world, and our first attempt at starting a bonafide cult as well. We could not be more excited to turn the stage over to James Call and the Missing Teens, who are going to explain to you the cosmic Power of the Crystals, what the Crystals are, how to find and align them, and how to achieve success, success, success.
This is your chance to learn what exactly is meant by "attaining Hawkman," how to "be angry, be reactive, be attractive," and how to balance sexy anger with pointless drudgery (to destroy the Earth, through good times). It is a strange, ominous, and yet, strangely appealing philosophy, and we want to expose it to you - through rock. Let EJ Cantu as Ted Tappert ask the hard questions, while Renee Cole and the dancing girls, and the directorial skills of Quin Gordon, massage your emotions during this strange journey.
