Volume 38, No. 3 © Central Texas Bluegrass Association March, 2016 The Experts Were Right! arlier this year, the experts predicted there would be bluegrass in 2016. And for once, the E experts were right. Just take a look at the display ads in this issue of the newsletter to see what’s coming up this spring. Although most of these are not in Central Texas, some are in fea- sible driving range, or some of our readers may be traveling that way and want to know about upcoming events along the route. Here’s what we know about this spring: March 5: McDade pig roast March 6-12: RV park jam at Texarkana March 18-20: Perrin bluegrass festival March 19-26: RV park jam at Jasper March 31-April 2: Glen Rose spring bluegrass festival April 2: Brazoria bluegrass festival April 9: Bluegrass concert at Kay Theater, Rockdale April 8-9: San Angelo bluegrass festival April 22-23: Lone Star bluegrass festival, Arlington May 26-29: Memorial Day festival, Salmon Lake Park, Grapeland Closer to home, the CTBA Board of Directors has announced proposed dates for the following events in Austin: May 22: RayFest at Hill’s Café July 3: Annual CTBA band scramble and garage sale November 6: Annual CTBA membership meeting Unfortunately, there will be no Bluebell and Bluegrass Festival in Llano this year. The Llano folks are hoping to promote some sort of smaller-scale event, though, so stay tuned and we’ll let you know what they come up with. Meanwhile, there are a couple of new monthly jam ses- sions to check out in Dripping Springs and Lampasas; see the jam listing at the end of this newsletter. And the Binion Creek Ramblers will be playing at the Fuel Coffeehouse in Llano on Saturday, March 5, 7-9 PM. http://fuelcoffeehouse.org/ Wires and Wood in concert at Heart’s Home Acoustics, February 20, 2016.

Well, it happens that Boerne has its own version of Fiddler’s Green. It’s called Heart’s Home Acoustics, and it’s easy to find. It’s locat- ed on top of the hill on a side street just off South Main Street, the main north-south thorough- fare in Boerne, at 109 Oak Park Drive. Hours are TThF, 10-7; W, 10-6, and Saturday 10:30- 5:30. They carry guitars, banjos, fiddles (and a few other kinds of instruments such as viola and cello), strings, picks, amplifiers and the usual sorts of things you’d find in a shop of this nature. You can call them at (830) 331-9840. They offer music lessons, too, although this isn’t really a bluegrass-oriented shop, and many of the banjos are tenor banjos rather than five-string. The shops carries guitars by Allison, Bam- burg, Blanchard, Bourgeois, Charis, Ensor, Knaggs, Lowden, McPherson, Musser, Olson, Pe- terson, Petros, Redentore, Renaissance, Robertson, Sahlstrom, Simpson, and Stonebridge. On Saturday evening, February 20, I paid a visit to the shop to hear CTBA member band Wires and Wood (not to be confused with Wood and Wires, which is an entirely different band) play a two-hour concert in a very nice, high-ceiling listening room with good acoustics (and plenty of spare guitars on the wall, if you need one). Well worth the trip. The music was great. 3 Above, wall o’ banjos at Heart’s Home Acoustics in Boerne. Not many five-strings here. Below, Wires and Wood in concert, February 20. Photos by K.

Photo by K. Brown. arch 27 will mark five years since Jake Jenkins, along with his parents, was tragically M killed in a single-engine plane crash in Dickens County. Jake was from Rockdale, and his parents lived in Minerva, a small community just up Highway 77 from Rockdale. He gradu- ated from Rockdale High School in 1989, then from the bluegrass program at South Plains Col- lege in 1992, worked at Collings Guitars (1993-96) and then began traveling part-time with Karl Shiflett when the Big Country Show was formed in 1993. He went to a fulltime basis in 1996, but later quit to spend more time with his family. By then, he lived near Dickens, about 60 miles east of Lubbock, and was an equipment operator for the Lubbock Fire Department. In 2009, he joined east Texas bluegrass favorites Hickory Hill on banjo, on a part-time basis. Jake can be heard on several of the Karl Shiflett recordings: Karl Shiflett & Big Country Show (Rebel 1752, 1999, with “Where the Smoke Goes Up” and 12 other cuts); In Full Color (Rebel 1772, 2002, with his instrumental “Jakebrakes”); and Worries on my Mind (Rebel 1792, 2003, with the title song written by Jake). There is also a tribute compilation CD (A Tribute to Jake 7 Jenkins) issued by Karl Shiflett and the Big Country Show, consisting of 11 cuts from the Rebel recordings along with another (“Whole Lot of Loving on My Mind”) previously unrecorded. Jake was also a pilot, and at the time of the crash, was leaving a private airstrip near his home in Dickens, flying his1946 Stinson 108 light plane, intending to return with his parents to Rock- dale. His parents had been helping him build a log cabin for his family. Jake also played guitar, mandolin, and bass, but banjo was his primary instrument. My own strongest impressions of Jake come from the stringbending style (whether using Scruggs tuners or just choking the strings), reminiscent of the pedal steel, that he brought to the Shiflett band. It fit well with the honky-tonk sensibility of the band. And of course, the other thing that I re- member most was his story about Mrs. Potts, the snake — a story that I think he must have told at nearly every Shiflett show. About midway through the story, when the audience started whis- pering among themselves (“Is he going to get through this unscathed?”), he’d stop and say, “Don’t worry, folks, I’m a professional.”’ And he was. CTBA at Pearl Several CTBA members visited Pearl for the February 6 jam, and Mike and Nan Hurlbut set up a display in the hallway as part of a drive to recruit more members. Kudos, y’all. Board members Mike and Nan Hurlbut staff the CTBA promotion table for the February monthly jam at Pearl.

    Notes from the Underground: a Cultural, Political, and Aesthetic Mapping of Underground Music

    Notes From The Underground: A Cultural, Political, and Aesthetic Mapping of Underground Music. Stephen Graham Goldsmiths College, University of London PhD 1 I declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Signed: …………………………………………………. Date:…………………………………………………….. 2 Abstract The term ‗underground music‘, in my account, connects various forms of music-making that exist largely outside ‗mainstream‘ cultural discourse, such as Drone Metal, Free Improvisation, Power Electronics, and DIY Noise, amongst others. Its connotations of concealment and obscurity indicate what I argue to be the music‘s central tenets of cultural reclusion, political independence, and aesthetic experiment. In response to a lack of scholarly discussion of this music, my thesis provides a cultural, political, and aesthetic mapping of the underground, whose existence as a coherent entity is being both argued for and ‗mapped‘ here. Outlining the historical context, but focusing on the underground in the digital age, I use a wide range of interdisciplinary research methodologies , including primary interviews, musical analysis, and a critical engagement with various pertinent theoretical sources. In my account, the underground emerges as a marginal, ‗antermediated‘ cultural ‗scene‘ based both on the web and in large urban centres, the latter of whose concentration of resources facilitates the growth of various localised underground scenes. I explore the radical anti-capitalist politics of many underground figures, whilst also examining their financial ties to big business and the state(s). This contradiction is critically explored, with three conclusions being drawn. First, the underground is shown in Part II to be so marginal as to escape, in effect, post- Fordist capitalist subsumption.

  • December 2020 Newsletter

    December 2020 Newsletter Musical Heritage Center, aka… The Fiddle & Pick Hello Everyone, I hope this letter finds you well. I find it doesn’t take much to know that I have so much to be thankful for. Even in trying times, we learn so much and grow in faith. We had a very different November then ever for multiple reasons; one of which was our beloved annual Irish Music Weekend was not able to be as it has been our tradition and our biggest MHC event for the past 12 years. Despite obstacles, we were most fortunate to have two virtual workshops hosted by Rose Conway-Flanagan on Irish fiddle and Andy Kruspe on the Bodhran (Irish drum). I thank them so much for their time and talent and expertise! Both Andy & Rose have been instructors multiple years (Rose has been here for all the years) and it is such a blessing to have their hosted workshops as a “marker” for our 12th annual IMW! God willing, I cannot wait to have them back again along with so many other great instructors on all the Irish instruments at our 13th annual Irish Music Weekend Nov 11-13, 2021! ~ Reflections on November: First weekend of November Tim & Gretchen went to the Bluegrass Hall of Fame Museum in Owensboro Kentucky. I was very impressed by the Riverfront Park and the New Hall of Fame museum! I thought about how fun it would be to have a Fiddle & Pick group field trip there someday! Like all events these days, there were adjustments. Tim was slated to play a concert with Rodney Dillard.
  • Real Rock: Authenticity and Popular Music in Canada, 1984-1994

    Real Rock: Authenticity and Popular Music in Canada, 1984-1994

    REAL ROCK: AUTHENTICITY AND POPULAR MUSIC IN CANADA, 1984-1994 PAUL DAVID AIKENHEAD A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN HISTORY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO SEPTEMBER 2018 © PAUL DAVID AIKENHEAD, 2018 Abstract This dissertation investigates the production and reception of English-Canadian rock music sound recordings, from 1984 to 1994, in relation to mutually constitutive understandings of race, ability, gender, sexuality, class, age, and place. It examines how different forms of domestic Anglo rock served to reinforce or subvert the dominant ideologies undergirding the social order in Canada during the late twentieth century. This study analyzes a multifaceted discourse about authenticity that illustrates the ways in which a host of people – including musicians, music journalists, record label representatives and other professionals from across the music industries, government administrators, and consumers – categorized recorded sound, defined bodily norms, negotiated commerce and technology, and evaluated collective communication in Canada. This study finds that the principle of originality fundamentally structured the categorization of sound recordings in Canada. Originality, according to rock culture, encompassed the balancing of traditionalism with innovation. This dissertation determines that Whiteness organized English-Canadian rock culture in terms of its corporeal standards. White bodies functioned as the norm against which racialized Others were compared and measured. This study also shows how the concept of autonomy encouraged the proper negotiation of commerce and technology in an increasingly neoliberal political and economic condition. Independence of will fostered acceptable behaviour. Finally, this dissertation reveals that the rock status of a given concert rested upon the actions of the performers as well as the composition and reactions of ticket holders in the audience.
