Most unusual. Reservations Suggested I’m not really sure how I came by this optimism stuff. I mean, how could Open for Dinner I, with so many friends out of a job? Thanks to the priorities of the larger Wednesday - Sunday corporations, who prefer satisfying shareholders with larger profits rather Sunday Brunch: 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. than re-investing in America’s work force, national unemployment is Rated 1/2 by The Pougkeepsie Journal still in the 10% range. It’s stunning how callous politicians and media are 1746 Rt. 9w, West Park NY 12493 toward the unemployed lately, calling them lazy and parasitical; showing (845) 384-6590 zero empathy or even basic Christianity, no “there, but for the grace of www.globalpalaterestaurant.com God, go I” at all. It’s cut ‘em off, make ‘em get whatever minimum wage 0000092949 jobs are available, take away their food stamps, free ride is over, pal. It’s for your own good, ya bum, this government money robs your initiative, y’know. Since 1976 I have personally never known somebody who enjoyed unemployment, or used it as some kind of scam to fleece the government, and thus the HINEBECK taxpayer. Chances are good you haven’t either. Yet, you’d think these R “deadbeats” populated entire states, the way the senators and AM jocks NTIQUES squawk. “We just can’t afford it,” is the prevailing meme, followed by A “they don’t deserve it.” AIR� Oh yeah? Well, here’s some things we REALLY can’t afford, but manage F to: how about two senseless, expensive wars that will never ever be won 1976 in any conventional sense, that will only bleed the U.S.?

Or allowing energy corporations to exploit and ruin land and water (and labor for that matter) indiscriminately for their own profit. 34 I could go on, but really, helping the unemployed is totally fiscally doable, and it would be morally wrong not to, whether someone thinks OCT 9 & 10 they “deserve it” or not. Saturday 10-5 & Sunday 11-4 But I didn’t come here to rant. No, I was winding back to the inexplicable on facebook and online at optimism thing. And I think I know why I feel it: it’s the people here. I’ve come to the conclusion that the folks of the Hudson Valley are really and truly there for each other, in a whole lot of ways. RhinebeckAntiquesFair.com How do I know this? Well, some of you might know that in my parallel ENTIRELY INDOORS ON Roll life alongside Roll I’m a professional musician, playing with a host of THE DUTCHESS COUNTY FAIRGROUNDS different regional groups.

FREE PARKING DELIVERY SERVICE FOOD COURT Though some benefits were for causes outside of the region (Haiti, The Rhinebeck Antiques Fair PO Box 838 Rhinebeck, NY 12572 845-876-1989 Gulf), most were for individual causes and the local service providers like Family of Woodstock and Queen’s Galley, which are staffed by incredibly giving people who really don’t care why you’re sick, hungry, and needing some assistance. They just give because it’s the right thing to do, and help make sure those who really need the help—be it food, shelter, job training, medical, what-have-you—can get it. These folks and this valley are the source of my precious optimism, which will no doubt be sorely tested by the screaming media in the run-up to the midterm elections. Think I’ll unplug the entire month of October. Ah, but the sun is bouncing off Bonticou today, our recent CSA vegetable haul was off the hook, with a crimson bounty of (un-blighted this year—yay!) tomatoes. There’s music wafting up from Rosendale— someone’s out at the park jamming. Really love it here, hope you do too. See you out and about! Chances are good it will be at a benefit somewhere.

  • PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 and 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak a Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate
    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • Three New Acts for Northside
    MC50 2018-04-17 10:00 CEST Three new acts for NorthSide The festival has found room to add Yungblud, Soleima, and a special anniversary edition of MC5 to the line-up NorthSide announced this year's festival poster with 41 primary international acts at the end of February, but the festival has still been able to add another three acts to the NorthSide 2018 line-up. MC50 The most iconic beginning to a punk song ever was delivered by Detroit's own Wayne Kramer, who in 1968 shouted "And right now ... right now ... right now it's time to ... kick out the jams, motherfuckers!" from the stage of the Grande Ballroom in Detroit. That’s how the title song from the debut album "Kick Out the Jams" by MC5 starts, which today is considered one of the most important albums from the time just before the world fell in love with Sex Pistols, Ramones, Black Flag, and The Clash. To celebrate the upcoming 50th anniversary of the groundbreaking album, Kramer has gathered a new band around him, which he calls the MC50. The band consists of the guitarist Kim Thayil from Soundgarden, Fugazi drummer Brendan Canty, King's X bassist Doug Pinnick, and Marcus Durant from Zen Guerrilla. They will this summer perform all eight songs from the debut album plus other favorites from the MC5 catalog . MC50 will play Friday June 8th at NorthSide 2018 Yungblud One of the hottest comets on the English music scene right now is Dominic Harrison, who performs under the name of Yungblud.

  • The Music of Pierre Jalbert
    " an acknowledged chamber-music master." – THE NEW YORKER American composer Pierre Jalbert has been recognized for his richly colored and superbly crafted scores and “music of fierce and delicate inventiveness [with] kaleidoscope of moods and effects.” (Cleveland Plain Dealer) Painting vibrant and picturesque sonic portraits for the listener, he has developed a musical language that is engaging, expressive, and deeply personal. Among his many honors are the Rome Prize, BBC Masterprize, Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center's Stoeger Award, given biennially "in recognition of significant contributions to the chamber music repertory," and an award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Jalbert’s work has drawn inspiration from a variety of sources ranging from plainchant melodies to natural phenomena, and his French-Canadian heritage, hearing English folk songs and Catholic liturgical music growing up. He has earned a reputation for his mastery of color, in both his chamber and orchestral scores, creating timbres that are vivid yet refined and tonally centered, combining modal, tonal, and dissonant sonorities as it travels new and unusual paths, while retaining a sense of harmonic motion culminating in a completed journey. His music has been commissioned and performed worldwide, including the St. Paul and Los Angeles Chamber orchestras, the American Composers Orchestra, and the Symphonies of Houston, Vermont, Albany, Budapest, London, Boston and Milwaukee, the National Symphony, Cabrillo and Eastern Festival Orchestras. He received two Meet the Composer grants, including one for its “Magnum Opus Project.” Jalbert served as Composer-in-Residence with the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, California Symphony and Chicago's Music in the Loft.

Sponsored by The Valley Advocate, 93.9 The River, WGBY TV57 and JR Lyman Co. About the Program "The American Beauty Project" is a special tribute concert to the Grateful Dead's most important and best-loved albums, Working Man's Dead and American Beauty. In January 2007, an all-star lineup of musicians that Relix magazine called "a dream team of performers" gave the premier of this concert in front of an over-flowing crowd at the World Financial Center's Winter Garden in New York City. The New York Times' Jon Pareles wrote that the concert gave "New life to a Dead classic... and mirrored the eclecticism of the Dead," and a Variety review said that the event brought "a back- porch feel to the canyons of Gotham's financial district. The perf's real fire came courtesy of acts that like to tear open the original structures of the source material and reassemble the parts afresh - an approach well-suited to the honorees' legacy." Now, a select group of those performers, including Ollabelle, Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams, Catherine Russell, and Jim Lauderdale are taking the show on the road.

His father Willis Daugherty (1929-2011) was a jazz and country and western drummer, his mother Evelyn Daugherty (1927-1974) was an amateur singer, and his grandmother Josephine Daugherty (1907- 1991) was a pianist for silent film. As a GRAMMY® award-winning composer, Michael Daugherty is one of the most commissioned, performed, and recorded composers on the American concert music scene today. Daugherty first came to international attention when the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, conducted by David Zinman, performed his Metropolis Symphony at Carnegie Hall in 1994. Since that time, Daugherty’s music has entered the orchestral, band and chamber music repertory and made him, according to the League of American Orchestras, one of the ten most performed American composers.

  • Luther Dickinson and Sisters of the Strawberry Moon Solstice
    Luther Dickinson and Sisters of the Strawberry Moon Solstice “Most of the work was in getting the spark lit,” Luther Dickinson says of assembling the all-star cast for his extraordinary new project, Luther Dickinson and Sisters of the Strawberry Moon. “It was sort of like throwing a party. Once you manage to get everybody together, you can just step back and let it all happen.” Like any good party, Luther Dickinson and Sisters of the Strawberry Moon’s debut album, Solstice, comes complete with a great soundtrack and an impeccable guest list, one that boasts ​ Amy Helm, Birds of Chicago, Amy LaVere, and Shardé Thomas among others. And like any good host, Dickinson manages to put the spotlight on his friends here, taking a step back from the microphone in order to focus his efforts behind the scenes and flex his considerable muscles as both a producer and a guitarist. The result is an album that stands apart in Dickinson’s extensive catalog, a collection that brings together some of the most captivating female voices in modern American roots music and filters each of their distinctive personalities through a singular vision of artistic community and musical exploration. “The whole idea of this album was to introduce a bunch of friends and get them to collaborate with each other,” says Dickinson. “I wanted to let the chemistry flow, to create an environment where everyone’s flavors naturally blended together and each artist could just be themselves. I think you can feel that freedom in the music.” Freedom has long been Dickinson’s sonic signature, both on the stage and in the studio.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MARCH 2021 CELEBRATED SINGER/SONGWRITER AMY HELM RETURNS WITH WHAT THE FLOOD LEAVES BEHIND ON JUNE 18 HER MOST PERSONAL ALBUM TO DATE EXPANDS HER SONIC PALETTE WITH PRODUCER JOSH KAUFMAN LISTEN TO SOULFUL FIRST SINGLE “BREATHING” HERE "Helm sings with restrained yet obvious passion…” – American Songwriter Nashville, TN – Acclaimed singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Amy Helm is set to release What the Flood Leaves Behind (Renew Records/BMG) on June 18th. Produced by Josh Kaufman (Taylor Swift’s Folklore, Bob Weir, Bonny Light Horseman) who is also featured on piano, guitar, and mandolin, the record brings Helm’s powerful, emotive vocals to the forefront. Listen to the captivating first single “Breathing” HERE. After recording 2018’s This Too Shall Light in Los Angeles, Helm returned home to Woodstock and Levon Helm Studios to record What The Flood Leaves Behind. The historical significance of returning to that special place built by her father clearly resonated with Helm. “Going back to the place where I learned so much about how to express music, how to hold myself in music, how to listen to music,” she begins, “It was humbling in a funny way. I could see clearly where I came from and where I am now in my life. I was singing from a different place now and for a different reason.” With the studio acting as the vital supporting actor, the ensemble cast consisted of a band of renowned players. The synergy of Helm, Kaufman and Phil Cook (keys, harmonica), Michael Libramento (bass, organ, percussion), Tony Mason (drums), Daniel Littleton (guitar), Stuart Bogie (saxophone), Jordan McLean (trumpet), and her son Lee Collins (congas) brought out the highest heights.
