NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions
NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard Quotable New Orleans, Part 4 Below are a number of additional noteworthy quotes on America‘s truly unique city, my fourth installment. Musicians, writers, politicians and philosophers – they all had something to offer. Hope you enjoy. New Orleans is the only foreign city in the United States. - WALKER PERCY Noisy, bustling, gossiping, and a thousand leagues from the United States. - ALEXIS DE TOQUEVILLE, who toured the United States in 1831 A restaurant is a place where dollars are exchanged for food. Neither should be counterfeit. - JULES ALCIATORE I sing God's music because it makes me feel free. It gives me hope. With the blues, when you finish, you still have the blues. - MAHALIA JACKSON New Orleans is not in the grip of a neurosis of a denied past; it passes out memories generously like a great lord; it doesn't have to pursue ―the real thing.‖ - UMBERTO ECO, Travels in Hyperreality New Orleans is like the bad-kid island in ―Pinocchio.‖ - JONAH HILL People don't live in New Orleans because it is easy. They live here because they are incapable of living anywhere else in the just same way. - IAN McNULTY, A Season of Night: New Orleans Life After Katrina Everybody started calling my music rock and roll, but it wasn't anything but the same rhythm and blues I'd been playing down in New Orleans. - FATS DOMINO There is no other place on earth even remotely like New Orleans. Don't even try to compare it to anywhere else. -
The Clash and Mass Media Messages from the Only Band That Matters
THE CLASH AND MASS MEDIA MESSAGES FROM THE ONLY BAND THAT MATTERS Sean Xavier Ahern A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2012 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Kristen Rudisill © 2012 Sean Xavier Ahern All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor This thesis analyzes the music of the British punk rock band The Clash through the use of media imagery in popular music in an effort to inform listeners of contemporary news items. I propose to look at the punk rock band The Clash not solely as a first wave English punk rock band but rather as a “news-giving” group as presented during their interview on the Tom Snyder show in 1981. I argue that the band’s use of communication metaphors and imagery in their songs and album art helped to communicate with their audience in a way that their contemporaries were unable to. Broken down into four chapters, I look at each of the major releases by the band in chronological order as they progressed from a London punk band to a globally known popular rock act. Viewing The Clash as a “news giving” punk rock band that inundated their lyrics, music videos and live performances with communication images, The Clash used their position as a popular act to inform their audience, asking them to question their surroundings and “know your rights.” iv For Pat and Zach Ahern Go Easy, Step Lightly, Stay Free. v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This thesis would not have been possible without the help of many, many people. -

CAP UCLA Presents Butler, Bernstein & the Hot 9 at Royce Hall
Press Release Friday, December 18th, 2015 Contact: Ashley Eckenweiler [email protected] CAP UCLA Presents Butler, Bernstein & The Hot 9 at Royce Hall plus New York ‘dhol and brass’ ensemble Red Baraat to open the evening Center for the Art of Performance at UCLA is proud to present ‘Mardi Gras Bhangra,’ an explosive evening bursting with talent, and a pre-party to kick things off. New Orleans piano legend Henry Butler, trumpet virtuoso Steven Bernstein and their collaborative group The Hot 9 will play re-imagined standards as well as exciting improvisations. Brooklyn-based Red Baraat, hailed by NPR as “one of the best party bands in years” provides the opening set. The party starts on the Royce Terrace, however, with a Mardi Gras crawfish boil at 6:30, so be sure to join us early. Tickets ($19-$49) for Tuesday, February 9 at 8 p.m. are available now at cap.ucla.edu, via Ticketmaster and at the UCLA Central Ticket Office at 310.825.2101. ABOUT BUTLER, BERNSTEIN & THE HOT 9 This performance proves the power of perfectly matched musical sensibilities—that of the New Orleans singer/pianist Henry Butler and trumpeter/arranger Steven Bernstein-- two students of early jazz with decidedly modern voices. Bringing in a New Orleans rhythm section with Herlin Riley on drums and Reginald Veal on acoustic bass, Butler, Bernstein & The Hot 9 was realized. Blind since birth, Henry Butler tells stories through the rise, swing, and rumble of his fingers as they channel sounds as diverse as his Louisiana birthplace: jazz, Caribbean, classical, pop, blues and R&B, among others. -
