Cut&Paste Rock&Roll (CPRR) is a celebration of music and art supporting queer culture and
creativity within LGBTQIA community within Southern California. Currently we are working on
obtaining an official 501(c)(3) status for The AMP Organization which eventually will be
responsible for CPRR and other queer events. The AMP Organization Art, Music and Philanthropy
was formed in 2010 believes in empowering the talented people within the LGBTQQIA
community. www.amporg.org
The AMP is planning yet another Cut&Paste Rock&Roll event on August 20th happening in Los
Angeles along with Queer movie night, zine events, dance parties, music & art workshops and
more soon to be announced. Make sure to follow @CutandPasteRnR on twitter for the latest
news and updates.
Cut and Paste Rock and Roll is a grassroots night of celebration and recognition of queer
musicians, artists and community organizations within the Los Angeles area. Based in Long Beach,
CA founder Annie Parkhurst first organized this event in response to the queer movements
happening in larger cities like San Francisco "Long Beach and LA need to hear our local queer
voices" Parkhurst said "and the queer people of socal need a place to call their own, something
different than the mainstream gay events."
People from all over Long Beach, Los Angeles, Orange County, Riverside, San Diego, Bakersfield
and more gather together to be apart of this event each time. The queer performers range
from indie bands to spoken text and art is displayed on the walls, table tops...and people! You'll
find crafts on every table allowing every attendee to make their own queer art all night for free.
At every CPRR local artists, bands, companies and other groups pitch in to the Queer Survival Kits
given to each attendee. These bags are hand decorated by local queers and in the past have
included treats from: Condom Rev, Blackheart Records, Daisy Rock Guitars, Queer Control
Records, The New Gay and The Trevor Project just to name a few.

At CPRR you'll notice that instead of saying gay, the word "queer" is often used in its place.
Queer is an umbrella terms designed to be inclusive of a broad range of self-identifications.
Within the gay and lesbian community, there are those who identify as bisexual, transsexual
or transgender as well as those who do not want a label at all. Rather than use the more
cumbersome acronym ‘LGBTQ’ (lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, trans- and queer), we find the word
‘queer’ to be a more inclusive term for sexual minorities and simpler. The term ‘queer’ is also
used by a number of organizations for this reason and is well-recognized.
