Of Montreal EU’s reviewer of Of Montreals recent show in Chicago describes it like this: “The band was adorned in their usual smocks that combined glam aesthetic with whatever term you would use for the fish-man on the cover of it. When you couple this with the three simultaneous videos playing on the screens, you get a sense of what a Velvet Underground/Andy Warhol collaboration must’ve been like. The videos combined psychedelia with bizarre, yet cute, children’s book images. Throw this bizarre presentation in with completely eccentric keyboard-driven pop and neat props, such as 10-foot long dresses and lobster claws, and you get a show that’s more like a contained carnival. I guess you just need to see it for yourself to really understand.” Read the entire review on page 23. Also playing, Loney Dear and Pigeon John.

  • Sam Quinn's Posthumous Visit with Gram Parsons by Carole Perkins 2008
    Sam Quinn's Posthumous Visit With Gram Parsons by Carole Perkins 2008 Sam Quinn and his band, the everybodyfields, recently stayed at The Joshua Tree Inn where legendary singer/songwriter Gram Parsons died from a drug and alcohol overdose in 1973 at the age of 26. Quinn, Jill Andrews, Josh Oliver, and Tom Pryor, comprise the everybodyfields whose music has been described as, "a fresh set of fingerprints in the archives of bluegrass, country, and folk music." The band was touring the west coast when Quinn discovered the band was booked to stay at The Joshua Tree Inn. The Joshua Tree Inn is a simple but mythical motel in California, about 140 miles east of Los Angeles. It was popular in the fifties for Hollywood rabble rousers and trendy in the seventies for rockers and celebrities. These days, the main attraction is the room Parsons passed away in, room Number Eight, where thousands of fans pilgrimage every year to pay homage to Parsons. Quinn says he's been a fan of Parsons since he was eighteen but never dreamed he'd be sharing a wall with Parson's old motel room one day. "It was really far out to find out we would be staying in the Joshua Tree Inn. I had just woken up in our van that was parked about a mile away. I knew we'd be in the vicinity of where Gram died but sharing a wall with Gram, no, not a chance," he says. "So we walk into the lobby and the lady at the front desk gives me a key to room Number Seven, the room right next to the one Gram died in.

  • Mtv and Transatlantic Cold War Music Videos
    102 MTV AND TRANSATLANTIC COLD WAR MUSIC VIDEOS WILLIAM M. KNOBLAUCH INTRODUCTION In 1986 Music Television (MTV) premiered “Peace Sells”, the latest video from American metal band Megadeth. In many ways, “Peace Sells” was a standard pro- motional video, full of lip-synching and head-banging. Yet the “Peace Sells” video had political overtones. It featured footage of protestors and police in riot gear; at one point, the camera draws back to reveal a teenager watching “Peace Sells” on MTV. His father enters the room, grabs the remote and exclaims “What is this garbage you’re watching? I want to watch the news.” He changes the channel to footage of U.S. President Ronald Reagan at the 1986 nuclear arms control summit in Reykjavik, Iceland. The son, perturbed, turns to his father, replies “this is the news,” and lips the channel back. Megadeth’s song accelerates, and the video re- turns to riot footage. The song ends by repeatedly asking, “Peace sells, but who’s buying?” It was a prescient question during a 1980s in which Cold War militarism and the nuclear arms race escalated to dangerous new highs.1 In the 1980s, MTV elevated music videos to a new cultural prominence. Of course, most music videos were not political.2 Yet, as “Peace Sells” suggests, dur- ing the 1980s—the decade of Reagan’s “Star Wars” program, the Soviet war in Afghanistan, and a robust nuclear arms race—music videos had the potential to relect political concerns. MTV’s founders, however, were so culturally conserva- tive that many were initially wary of playing African American artists; addition- ally, record labels were hesitant to put their top artists onto this new, risky chan- 1 American President Ronald Reagan had increased peace-time deicit defense spending substantially.

Of course, that was the aim of his magisterial scholarly work, and while unquestionably impressive, his tome turned out to be by no means the last word on the topic. Indeed over the intervening quarter century, quite to the contrary, we witnessed a continuously increasing outpouring of specialized political science, historical, philosophical, psychological, and other disciplinary studies with clearly ―no school of leadership‖with a single unifying theory emerging.
