Publishers (ASCAP), a “performance rights” organization that recovers royalty pay- to WhiteRock ‘n’ Roll ments for the performance of copyrighted music. Until 1939,ASCAP was a closed BY REEBEEGAROFALO society with a virtual monopoly on all copyrighted music. As proprietor of the com- positions of its members, ASCAP could regulate the use of any selection in its cata- logue. The organization exercised considerable power in the shaping of public taste. Membership in the society was generally skewed toward writers of show tunes and The history of popular music in this country-at least, in the twentieth century-can semi-serious works such as Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart, Cole Porter, George be described in terms of a pattern of black innovation and white popularization, Gershwin, Irving Berlin, and George M.

  • Bounty Killer
    KickArc and Raindance Entertainment present a Kickstart Production in association with Just Chorizo Productions Bounty Killer Directed by Henry Saine Written by Jason Dodson, Henry Saine & Colin Ebeling Produced by Jason Netter Produced by Colin Ebeling & Henry Saine Executive Produced by Bobby Gerber Tucker Moore Bounty Killer Synopsis It’s been 20 years since the corporations took over the world’s governments. Their thirst for power and profits led to the Corporate Wars, a fierce global battle that laid waste to society as we know it. Born from the ash, the Council of Nine rose as a new law and order for this dark age. To avenge the corporations’ reckless destruction, the Council issues death warrants for all white collar criminals. Their hunters -- the bounty killer. From amateur savage to graceful assassin, the bounty killers now compete for body count, fame and a fat stack of cash. They’re ending the plague of corporate greed and providing the survivors of the apocalypse with retribution. These are the new heroes. This is the age of the BOUNTY KILLER. ____________________________________________________________________ Two of the highest ranked bounty killers in the Thrice Burned Lands, Drifter (Matthew Marsden) and Mary Death (Christian Pitre) team up to exterminate a party full of yellow-tied corporate criminals. Drifter’s explosive killing style is in stark contrast to Mary’s graceful way of delivering death to white collar scum. Despite their difference in style, they exhibit level of comfort with one another that seems to indicate a long and dynamic history between these celebrity assassins. After the fight moves to a skyscraper’s rooftop, Drifter disposes of his intended target and saves Mary from falling to her death -- just another day at the office.

The tour will open in Bethel, NY on Friday, June 8th at Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, where Daltrey and his band will be joined on stage by the acclaimed Hudson Valley Philharmonic, showcasing the beloved classics from the 1969 rock opera, including “Pinball Wizard,” “See Me, Feel Me” and more.

Roger performed it in its entirety with his band during his 2011 solo tour. The opportunity to bring an orchestral dynamic to the raw emotion and cathartic impact of the songs that cemented Daltrey’s legacy as a vocal powerhouse adds a compelling dimension to the music’s timelessness.

Ted Harrison IV Vice President .......... Edward Redwinski Jr. Secretary ............... Katie Harrison Treasurer............... Nancy Keslick Asst. Treasurer .......... Amber Rennard President’s Letter It is my pleasure to welcome you to the 70th Annual Goshen Country Fair. In the 70 years that the fair and the fire company have been in existence a lot has changed in the area surrounding these fairgrounds. One thing that has remained constant is that the community continues to come together to put on the Goshen Country Fair in an effort to raise funds for the Goshen Fire Company. So I encourage you to come join us for a good old fashioned fair. I look forward to seeing you. Ted Harrison IV President,Goshen Country Fair The Idea for the Goshen Country Fair In the late 1940s an idea was brewing in the minds of a few men in Goshen Heights - a hamlet off Rt-3 knows as East Mill- town by the Red Arrow trolley line which ran from 69th Street to West Chester. Their concern was fire protection being four miles from West Chester’s volunteer fire companies. Conversations started on how to start their own fire company. Many evening they met to discuss the need, progressing in to the how. I have a memory of these discussions in our cellar as my father, George Parry, painted Venetian blind slats! Since this was over 70 years ago, I don’t remember (or never knew) details, but it was decided to hold a fair to raise money to start a Volunteer Fire Company.

  • The Eddie Cochran Story
    SHOW OF STARS 95 bassist Emory Gordy, who'd go on to play with or produce Emmylou Harris, Steve Earle, Roy Orbison, and George Jones; drummer Dennis St. John, who'd later work with Neil Diamond, Carole Bayer Sager, and the Band; and keyboardist Spooner Oldham, who'd played with Percy Sledge, Wilson Pickett, and Aretha Franklin and who'd later work with Neil Young, Bob Dylan, and Jackson Browne. Kindred was persistent. I recommended to them some great players; they'd decided that only I would do. Since they were already signed to Warner Brothers and had tremendous touring and recording potential, I decided to join them, recording a pair of Kindred albums in 1971 and 1972 and touring throughout America and Canada opening for Three Do,g Night. Through our shared management connection, I soon got a call from Jerry Edmonton, the drummer from Steppenwolf. They want ­ ed me to join their band. I stayed for three albums and four years as the group's lead guitarist, one of its songwriters , and a co-lead and backing vocalist. Toward the end of my tenure with "the Wolf," I received a call from the Flying Burrito Brothers, the country-rock outfit founded by Gram Parsons and Chris Hillman of the Byrds. They needed a guitarist for a two -week tour. I went down to the rehearsal hall, jammed with the group, and found myself a Burrito for the next fourteen months.
