  • T Miss Shows of November
    Mike D’s Top 5 — Can’t Miss Shows of November Top November Alt Shows in the greater RI area 1. Friday, November 8: Tim Kasher (of Cursive/The Good Life), Laura Stevenson, Littlefoot. $12 advance / $14 day of. 8 pm doors / 9 pm show. All ages. The Met, 1005 Main St., Pawtucket, RI. Tim Kasher is one of my favorite songwriters. His songwriting themes of love, loss, substance abuse and the pursuit of whatever happiness is while having an amazing amount of self awareness makes him a modern day Bukowski. After splitting his time over the last decade-plus as lead man of Cursive and Good Life, in 2010 he released his first solo record, The Game Of Monogamy, focusing on the nuances of relationships. His new album, Adult Film, is out now. Laura Stevenson and one of my favorite new local bands, Littlefoot, round out the bill. 2. Sunday, November 17: Johnny Gates & The Invite. $10 advance / $12 day of. 6 pm doors / 7 pm show. All ages. The Met, 1005 Main St., Pawtucket, RI. What a journey for Johnny Gates & The Invite. Having formed in Rhode Island in 2005 right out of being high school classmates, the band was one of the hardest working bands in the Providence indie / emo music scene, constantly playing The Living Room and Lupo’s. After flirting with major labels and grinding to get on national tours, the band moved to Nashville in 2008 and retooled. The game changing moment for them was meeting with producer Nathan Chapman (who is known for his production work with Taylor Swift) who took the band under his wing and found them a major label and major booking agency.

  • ENGAGE Inelegant Engagement Workshop Report
    ENGAGE 2019 INELEGANCE AND WHY WE MIGHT DESIRE IT WORKSHOP REPORT Bentley Crudgington ABSTRACT In founding Gay Men’s Health Crisis (GMHC) and the AIDS Coalition To Unleash Power (ACT-UP), Larry Kramer created two of the earliest centrally organised examples of health research engagement and public and patient involvement. These activists were not rejecting the research itself but denouncing its “elegant” nature. What would inelegant engagement look like and why might we desire it? What would it look like if we acted up and queered engagement, lavishing our time, skills, creativity and resources on the public and not researchers? This participatory workshop will explore these possibilities to produce an inelegant manifesto of change. FORMAT As an introduction to the concept of inelegance, and why we might desire it, we considered some of the inventions used by ACT UP and compared them with two current areas of social theory. We borrowed from queer theory and visual culture analysis to consider how we, as engagement professionals, frame our invitations, construct our publics and operate within institutional structures. We used these experiences to identify what systems need to be in place and which barriers need managing to allow us to become inelegant. We reviewed these ideas together and clustered them into emerging themes. We then named each cluster with an action to create an inelegant manifesto. This report summarises what we learnt together. In January 1982, Larry Kramer, a New York based writer, held a gathering of around eighty gay men at his apartment to discuss the emerging reports of a “gay cancer”.
