  • A Cultural Geography of Civic Pride in Nottingham

Thanks to the people of Nottingham and all the participants I interviewed. Thanks to my family. Thanks to Kate, Dan, Rachel, Martin, Tom, Sam, Luca, Taylor and to everyone who has heard me witter on about civic pride over the past few years. iv Abstract This thesis examines how people perceive, express, contest and mobilise civic pride in the city of Nottingham. Through interviews, participant observation and secondary resource analysis, I explore what people involved in the civic life of the city are proud of about Nottingham, what they consider the city’s (civic) identity to be and what it means to promote, defend and practice civic pride. Civic pride has been under-examined in geography and needs better theoretical and empirical insight.

  • PRESSEMITTEILUNG 17.07.2019 Friendly Fires Spielen Exklusive
    FKP Scorpio Konzertproduktionen GmbH Große Elbstr. 277 a ∙ 22767 Hamburg Tel. (040) 853 88 888 ∙ www.fkpscorpio.com PRESSEMITTEILUNG 17.07.2019 Friendly Fires spielen exklusive Show im Berliner Musik & Frieden Acht Jahre sind seit dem letzten Album „Pala“ der Friendly Fires vergangen. Dabei hat das Synthie-Pop-Trio aus Hertfordshire einen Aufstieg sondergleichen hingelegt. Schon das Debütalbum wurde für alles nominiert, was wichtig ist: NME Awards, Brit Award, Mercury Prize, just name it. Ursprünglich kamen Ed Macfarlane, Jack Savidge und Edd Gibson aus dem Hardcore, bevor sie auf ihrem selbstbetitelten Debüt den Beweis antraten, dass Dance, Electro und Disco auf der einen, Indie und Post-Punk auf der anderen Seite gar keine Widersprüche sein müssen. Es folgte mit der erwähnten letzten Platte „Pala“ ein Hybrid aus coolem Sommerbrisen-Sound, Oldschool-Disco und hedonistischer Demo „that sounds more like a ten minute holiday on a white yacht“, wie Friendly Fires es selbst einmal bezeichneten. Umjubelte Auftritte rund um die Welt und auf allen großen Festivals bewiesen, dass solche Aussagen keinesfalls übertrieben sind. Es folgten noch ein, zwei Statements: Man wolle sich neuer Musik zuwenden, hieß es von der Band, keinesfalls ein weiteres Pop-Album wie „Pala“ aufnehmen – danach war Ruhe. Und dann, wie aus dem Nichts, erschienen im vergangenen Jahr die Singles „Love Like Waves“ und „Heaven Let Me In“– co-produziert übrigens mit den alten Helden von Disclosure – und eben erst „Lack Of Love“ und „Silhouettes“. Es folgte ein legendärer Auftritt beim Glastonbury Festival, und alle wussten mit einen Schlag: Friendly Fires sind zurück. Im August erscheint mit „Inflorescent“ die dritte Platte voller cooler Tanzmusik, die abwechselnd wie ein Rücksturz in die 80er daherkommt, um dann wieder mit modernen Beats die Zukunft zu pumpen.

    Copyright by John F. Cline 2012 The Dissertation Committee for John F. Cline Certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Permanent Underground: Radical Sounds and Social Formations in 20th Century American Musicking Committee: Mark C. Smith, Supervisor Steven Hoelscher Randolph Lewis Karl Hagstrom Miller Shirley Thompson Permanent Underground: Radical Sounds and Social Formations in 20th Century American Musicking by John F. Cline, B.A.; M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2012 Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to my mother and father, Gary and Linda Cline. Without their generous hearts, tolerant ears, and (occasionally) open pocketbooks, I would have never made it this far, in any endeavor. A second, related dedication goes out to my siblings, Nicholas and Elizabeth. We all get the help we need when we need it most, don’t we? Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my dissertation supervisor, Mark Smith. Even though we don’t necessarily work on the same kinds of topics, I’ve always appreciated his patient advice. I’m sure he’d be loath to use the word “wisdom,” but his open mind combined with ample, sometimes non-academic experience provided reassurances when they were needed most. Following closely on Mark’s heels is Karl Miller. Although not technically my supervisor, his generosity with his time and his always valuable (if sometimes painful) feedback during the dissertation writing process was absolutely essential to the development of the project, especially while Mark was abroad on a Fulbright.

VOOR Er bestaan in mijn optiek maar twee stromingen binnen de muziek, te weten goede en slechte. De goede is doorgaans authentiek en de gevoelens die Ian Curtis, frontman van Joy Division, bezong leken mij als tiener in de jaren 80 oprecht, hij had er niet voor niets een einde aan gemaakt. De muziek hoorde bij de stroming New Wave, waar ik actief onderdeel van werd . Generatie Nix, de naam die mijn generatie meekreeg, zou toch geen werk vinden en de atoomoorlog zou spoedig beginnen. I wear black on the outside because black is how I feel on the inside zei Morrisey en daar kan ik me tot op de dag van vandaag in vinden... In dit referaat ga ik op zoek naar mijn muzikale en sociale roots en naar de achtergronden van het verhaal van een bijzondere en alternatieve onderneming. New Wave, de stroming voor de subcultuur der alternatieven waarvan Ian Curtis pionier was, vond zijn oorsprong halverwege de jaren 70 in de tegendraadse Punk.
