It’S Only Rock and Roll: an Interview with Don Dimuccio, Host of the Podcast About the Genre That Changed Music Foreve Shocking Development: Culture Shock goes virtual Culture Shock 2020 was one of many music festivals affected by the coronavirus pandemic, but it didn’t stop local creator and founder of Culture Shock, Chachi Carvalho. The past two years, the Pawtucket-based Culture Shock music fest filled the streets with diverse creativity and artistry, music and celebration. This year, Carvalho expects to give fans the same feeling, but the fest will be virtual. Performances will be live recorded sessions with acts such as Flawless Real Talk, Nova One, Joe Bruce, Temperamento, Brooxana, Jabubu, Kelce, Shokanti and Storm Ford. Culture Shock also will include interviews with the artists. Culture Shock has a wide selection of artists and genres every year, and this year it is expected to include an eclectic mix of sounds from Latin hip-hop to rap to ’60s vintage rock to singer-songwriter to silky soul and R&B. “I couldn’t allow this global pandemic to stop me from providing an invaluable resource to folks at this time, and that is an opportunity to feel some level of connectedness,” said Carvalho. “I feel like Culture Shock is an opportunity for artists to have a platform to perform when they haven’t had an opportunity to hit a stage throughout this whole time.” Roz Raskin of Nova One said this Culture Shock performance was the first time they had loaded their equipment into a performance space to play for anyone in such a long time. They mentioned everyone was super kind, helpful and communicative, and followed COVID guidelines, which made them feel very taken care of. “In this intense moment we are all living in, it’s still so important to feel the connection to the communities you were present in before COVID,” said Raskin. Carvalho alludes to his ambition, and said he wanted to challenge himself and the team to pull together a high level production with the hopes that it will generate some attention and funds to level up for next year (whether it’s virtual again or in person). For this year, Carvalho teamed up with HAUS, a Rhode Island-based content creating studio, and Massachusetts-based recording company, Railroad Park, to create a mashup of various and divergent artists as a film experience. Other sponsors and local supporters include Citizens Bank, Beatbox Studio and the Pawtucket Arts Fest. “I can’t help but think that this festival and this message is exactly what we need right now,” said Kyle Therrien, President of Railroad Park Recording Co. HAUS Content Creator Austin Delin said Carvalho approached them with the idea of a virtual Culture Shock 2020, aware of the challenges of live-streaming multicam performances over an internet connection as well as the precautions needed given the pandemic. Delin said they were able to film each artist’s performance individually, air out the space and sanitize the equipment between each session. The sessions were then edited and compiled into a film that will be released on December 21. “Not only was this an opportunity for us to strive for a level of quality that is seldom seen in virtual events or livestreams, but it was a way for us to give back to our local community here in Rhode Island,” said Delin. “There’s too much talent here for us to be overlooked, and that’s what we’re hoping to change.” Culture Shock is going onto its third year, and now that the festival has turned virtual for the pandemic, it provides a different opportunity to gain more followers for upcoming years. Carvalho said past events were lively and exciting, but had a smaller turnout than gatherings like PVDFest. He said Culture Shock going virtual opens up infinite possibilities given the number of people that can see it. “I believe this event being virtual is just a perfect way to end 2020. So many talented artists from different backgrounds coming together is the type of message the world needs right now,” said Latin hip-hop artist Temperamento. “I felt free and able to just get lost in my music. I don’t normally feel that because of nerves, but for this performance, it felt freeing,” said R&B soul singer Brooxana. “The name ‘Culture Shock’ says it all. It’s going to continue to wake the inspirations and passions of all kinds of artists as it did for me through this experience.” Culture Shock will be streaming at 7pm on Monday, December 21.

Christmas in Quarantine: Crock of Gold – a few rounds with Shane MacGowan This Julien Temple directed, Johnny Depp produced documentary shines a spotlight on Pogues singer, Shane MacGowan. Crock of Gold starts with MacGowan talking about growing up in Ireland living in a crowded house, without electricity or indoor plumbing, where he worked in the field with his uncle, and how his aunt would bribe him at the age of 5 with whiskey to read the Bible. The one part of Crock of Gold that irritated me was the overuse of stock film by Temple (one of his trademarks from his other films about Joe Strummer and the Sex Pistols) to re-enact MacGowan’s childhood. This is interspersed with MacGowan, his wife Victoria Mary Clarke, and Johnny Depp having drinks in a pub while MacGowan shares things like his belief that “God chose me to save Irish music.” When Clarke asked him why, MacGowan replied with a cackling “because God is Irish.” MacGowan’s family moved to London where MacGowan got kicked out of schools, began experimenting with drugs, and joined a gang after enduring an initiation where he got beaten with a stick while having a trashcan over his head. During his teens in the late ’70s, punk rock explodes in London and bands like the Sex Pistols inspired MacGowan to start a band of his own, which eventually comes to be called The Nips. After punk rock fizzled out of fashion, MacGowan started a band with Spider Stacy called Pogue Mahone to breathe new life into traditional Irish music fueled by the energy of punk rock. The band name only gets shortened to The Pogues once a TV show the band was to be on discovers that the Gaelic translation of Pogue Mahone is Kiss My Arse. There is great early footage of The Pogues, covers the creation of the iconic Christmas classic “Fairytale of New York,” and ends with MacGowan getting a medal from the President of Ireland for contributions to Irish culture in a star studded 60th birthday concert. Crock of Gold features interviews with MacGowan’s sister, parents, politician/Northern Ireland peace broker Gerry Adams, Nick Cave and Bono, among others. The movie is out in theaters (if that is ever a thing here again) and streaming platforms – check crockofgoldfilm.com for screening options. Low Cut Connie — Private Lives If Private Lives is not the best rock album of 2020, it is definitely in the top 5. The double album is a hot pie stuffed with American music. The ballad of “Look What They Did” covers the fall of Atlantic City after being raided by billionaire developers. Swagger-filled romps run wild from indie guitar squalor of “Tea Time” to the New Orleans boogie “Nobody Else Will Believe You.” “Help Me” has singer/keyboardist Adam Weiner singing about “hanging like a scarecrow” before the gospel chorus kicks in like a choir. “If I Die” belts out the blues. “Stay as Long as You Like “ is even like an ’80s pop ballad. Private Lives stylistically plays like a jukebox, shuffling between genres with Weiner’s lyrics pushing a comforting message of hope through the joys and sadness. In addition to this absolute beast of an album, Low Cut Connie does weekly streams every Thursday and Saturday for their close-lnit community of fans that Weiner has dubbed “Tough Cookies” – check out their social media pages for info. Private Lives is the soundtrack for the turbulence of 2020. The Replacements – Pleased To Meet Me (Sire/Rhino Records) This deluxe reissue of this 1987 classic includes three discs and one album of previously unreleased songs, demos and alternate mixes. Among the highlights are the Mats last recordings with original guitarist Bob Stinson on the Blackberry Way demos before they went to Memphis to make Pleased To Meet Me with legendary producer Jim Dickinson as a three piece. In a break with tradition, the vinyl offering is a completely different version of the album with some non-album songs sprinkled in, and a mix that has a raw demo quality. Pleased to Meet Me showcases singer’s Paul Westerberg’s lyric creation process as he’ll sing different lyrics before settling on the final version. Pleased To Meet Me also provides a snapshot of the infancy of bassist Tommy Stinson’s development as a songwriter. In a very Replacements-esque fashion, the boxset appears to have no involvement of the band members and was largely compiled by Mats biographer Bob Mehr. Pleased To Meet Me is a treasure trove for any Mats lover on your Holiday shopping list. Tom Petty – Wildflowers & All The Rest (Warner Records) Long rumoured to be the works, the deluxe version contains unreleased tracks that were originally intended to be part of Wildflowers as a double album. There is some filler (I’m not sure it was really necessary to buy the 9 vinyl version) but rarities like “Leave Virginia Alone,” the scorching psychedelic romp of “Driving Down to Georgia,” and “Girl on LSD” are pure gold.

Who is the man behind all this success? A man of tal- ent, prestige, dedication, and strong morale, Coach Ivy has taken the Gators’ season by storm. Coaching football for forty-six years in places all around Louisiana and some parts of Texas, Coach Ivy has nabbed numer- ous state titles, district championships, and winning games. But football isn’t all about winning. “My favorite part of the game has to be the defensive side. Everyone gets so excited about the guy that gets the ball, but I think the side that can stop the ball on defense is fun to watch.” Success for a football team all depends on the kind of program being run. “The more dis- cipline one has in the classroom and on the field can make a difference in how successful a team can be,” Coach Ivy states. But what most people don’t know is the man away from the bright lights of Lee Hedges and the dusty practice field of the Swamp. Coach Ivy is a man of many tal- ents and gifts. He has not only Submitted Photo coached football for almost half a cen- Coach Ivy leads the Gators to victory.

Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (March 2013) Drive-Thru Records Founded 1996 Founder Richard Reines Stefanie Reines Distributor(s) INgrooves Genre Pop punk Alternative rock Indie rock Post-hardcore Country of origin USA Location Sherman Oaks, California Official website http://www.myspace.com/drivethrurecords Drive-Thru Records logo used on You Can't Do that on Vinyl Drive-Thru Records, established in 1996, was a California-based record label owned by siblings Richard and Stefanie Reines. The label was responsible for popularizing the pop-punk/emo sound of the early to mid-2000s. After facing financial obstacles in getting their bands' music into stores, Drive-Thru entered into a distribution deal with MCA/Universal. MCA was dissolved and changed into Geffen Records. One of the clauses of that agreement was MCA/Geffen being able to sign any band of their choosing from Drive-Thru's roster. Once the Universal deal ended, they signed a contract with independent label Sanctuary Records. Starting with a new roster, the label garnered a top 10 platinum hit with "Here In Your Arms" by the Hellogoodbye. However, Sanctuary was on the verge of bankruptcy, and sold their assets to Universal Music. Drive-Thru Records got trapped in that deal, and were stuck with UMD, the catalog division of Universal. The label's last release was in 2008, when Richard and Stefanie Reines decided to concentrate on artist management and put Drive-Thru Records on indefinite hiatus.
