> CHOCOLATE GENIUS is the brain child of singer / songwriter
> Marc Anthony Thompson. His debut 3BLACK MUSIC2 is strong and
> beautiful in its smoky ballads and haunting rock. As a
> composer he stands to bridge the gap as the link between
> Tom Waits and Tricky. Chocolate Genius challenges the audience
> and questions the boundaries of musical genres and styles.
>
> 3Not many people could get away with calling themselves
> Chocolate Genius. Then again, not many people are blessed
> with the multi-culti fluidity expressed by Marc

> APOLOGIES:
> - We do our best to ensure everyone has a good time, events run smooth

> strict door policies, so we apologize for anyone who has been turned away
> for not having picure ID. The best bet from now on (in New York's
> Guiliani clubland) is to please always bring photo ID with you,
> especially since we are making as many events as we can 18 +.

> Thanks to everyone for your support - with your presence and
