dear readers, 3 Restaurants Under One Roof ell, looks like we went and did it: a issue. 3 Chefs and a 4th Guest Chef Each Wednesday Evening We didn’t try to, honest. It just kinda happened incidentally, the way these things do. Feels right this DEPUY CANAL HOUSE NATIONAL REGISTERED PROPERTIES w month, somehow. FINE DINING Oh man, it can’t have been 40 years ago that my parents drove me and my brothers to see Woodstock, the movie. It’s safe to say my parents would have been labeled “hippies,” pretty well tuned-in to the zeitgeist that was coming to a head that summer, so it was worthwhile to them to make a long drive—100 miles to be exact—to see the movie. It seemed almost like a cultural imperative, actually.

TH Being all of seven years old and a total Beatles/Herman’s Hermits kid, I 40 ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION was vaguely aware of who the bands were, particularly Hendrix and the Events in the planning include an Epicurean Farm Tour of Who. So my young mind wasn’t sure what to make of Richie Havens at small town farms and historic sites in the heart of the Catskills. first—I didn’t really have a cultural reference for what he was doing, For information on celebration events, email John Novi at [email protected] having grown up in New Hampshire, yet to be exposed to Muddy Waters, Leadbelly, Odetta. Pretty soon though, Richie and his backup—second guitarist and percussionist—had my full attention, and he rocked the ECLECTIC BISTRO house…“Handsome Johnny” is still to me one of the best performances in AT CHEFS ON FIRE the film. Or any concert film, for that matter. in the DePuy Canal House Wine Cellar From then on, it was quite a movie. All the split screens, cool backstage footage, wide shots taking in the sheer enormity of the event. You couldn’t AUTHENTIC FARE help but smile along with John Sebastian’s set; it’s such a well-captured good vibe moment. The Who and Hendrix are splendid of course, but holy FROM JAPANESE CHEF crap: Santana! Sly and the Family Stone! Where had these guys been hiding? MAKIO IDESAKO Not in New Hampshire. And all through it you get to know , one of the promoters, working behind the scenes with his trademark open vest/no shirt—a look that incidentally seems to be making a comeback nowadays with the guys in MGMT. The positive vibe of that movie hit Route 213, High Falls 845-687-7700 for hours me and stayed with me for quite sometime. You could say that at seven I www.depuycanalhouse.com became one of the so-called Woodstock Nation; guess I’ve been a citizen ever since.

So, I wasn’t sure quite what to expect when I finally first came to the actual town of Woodstock, 35 years later. The one the concert was NOT held at (that would be Bethel). Woodstock seemed to enjoy its uniquely iconic trademark anyway: the ubiquitous guitars, the tie-dye mercantiles mixed with high fashion and art galleries, the gatherings on the green, the weekenders from the city trying to see if there’s anymore juju up in the hills. The town looked the part, and still does.

But after hanging around and getting to know more Woodstockers, there’s a whole lot more to it than the surface implies. The sheer amount of artistically activated people in the area is astounding—so many great artists, musicians, actors, performers, chefs, creators, healers, teachers, forward-thinkers. The history of Woodstock as an arts colony is strong and significant; as the editor of a regional arts magazine, I can honestly say that I can always find an interesting subject in the Woodstock area. And yes…this would undoubtedly be the case even if the concert had never happened.

So OK, “Woodstock” didn’t happen in the town of Woodstock per se, but sometimes it bears reminding: Woodstockers made “Woodstock” happen. ’s new film —discussed in this issue with cinematographer James Schamus, courtesy of Jay Blotcher—tells the story from the perspective of Elliot Tiber, who played a pivotal role in connecting the festival with its eventual location. in tandem with Lang’s new memoir, they both explain why Woodstock, the town that is, deserves as much continued recognition for the Woodstock phenomenon as the concert.

So here’s a toast to Woodstock the Town, and may its many diverse artists and residents continue to find contentment and creativity in the Catskill foothills. Here’s to the Woodstock Nation who, now that they’re (we’re?) running things, better follow through on the good part of the dream. And thank you Michael Lang…for a great party 40 years ago people are STILL talking about.

And to those of you who ate the “brown acid?” Can’t say you weren’t warned. Cheers, Ross Rice, editor 2 | rollmagazine.com Gomen Kudasai color ad 7/30/09 3.50"W x 4.75"D

wassaicthe p r o j e c t By Jennifer Kiaba

Something big is coalescing in the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it hamlet of Wassaic this summer. Just as the Bard Summerscape festival is winding down on the other side of Dutchess County, an entirely new type of arts festival will begin its seasonal celebration. For the second year running this oft-forgotten rural community (nestled in the breathtaking Harlem Valley) will play host to the weekend long arts festival this month; the Wassaic Project looks forward into the vibrant future of the arts, while reclaiming post-industrial space in an upstate New York town.

James Schamus, the celebrated screenwriter-producer for Focus Once Tiber places his call to Woodstock Ventures, the world around Features, recalls the day when his longtime collaborator Ang Lee him changes. A fleet of festival organizers, led by a curly-haired biker (their film projects include Eat Drink Man Woman, The Ice Storm, in a fringed leather vest (Lang) descends on El Monaco. The place Brokeback Mountain. and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) came hums with life, as freaks and hairies follow to secure rooms, camp to him with a new idea.

In a telephone interview from his decades ago. Manhattan office, Schamus recounted the subsequent conversation between the pair. Schamus had been a fan of comedian , who plays Elliot, and lobbied for him as the lead of the film. “I think Demetri is “I’ve been reading and enjoying it… and I don't know if there’s a just an incredible find and I'm very proud that Ang took the leap of movie there. There might be, but take a look,” Schamus then read faith and he’s thrilled with the results,” Schamus said. the slender volume and was charmed. He called Lee, employing the signature candor that has marked and sustained their working Martin plays the dutiful son who comes to understand not only relationship for more than 15 years, saying, “Ang, we’ve found the world and his parents, but also himself, as he faces his something for you to do that’s not completely depressing, like your homosexuality. Schamus’s poetic license depicts Tiber as a wide- last six movies. Let’s give this a shot.” eyed naïf who grows spiritually and sexually. In the book, however, Tiber was a seasoned veteran of S&M gay bars, and claims to The author of the memoir, Elliot Tiber, tells his side of the story have taken an activist who took part in the June 1969, Stonewall in a telephone interview from his Manhattan apartment. “I knew Riots that heralded the gay rights movement. who (Lee) was and I told him how much I admired his work,” Tiber recalled. “'But,' I said, 'In all of your films, everybody dies in the end.' The canvas of Taking Woodstock is crowded with colorful, outsized He laughed. I said, 'Wouldn’t you like to do a comedy?'” characters that seem more archetypes than people, but the conceit melds nicely with the fairy-tale quality of Schamus’ screenplay and Black comedy is more to the point in Taking Woodstock. In 1969 Tiber (ne Eliyahu Teichberg), the son of two ne’er-do-well Eastern European immigrants, was helping his parents operate a failing motel called El Monaco, in the Sullivan County hamlet of White Lake. One day in July 1969, Tiber learned that a group of event promoters had just been thwarted in their plans to stage a rock concert in Wallkill. According to the book, Tiber got Michael Lang on the telephone, lured him over to the dilapidated motel and then connected the group with dairy farmer Max Yasgur, a neighbor down the road apiece in Bethel. Yasgur offered up his cow fields for the concert- without-a-home.

Lee and Schamus decided to move ahead with adapting Tiber’s book, the screenwriter-producer said, “it was the opportunity to n a

make something that was very modest, very simple, very joyful. For e g us, maybe it was the time in our lives, but also the time in Ang’s R career; I thought it was really important for him to do something that e n K

was about something hopeful and restorative and, in an important b y , way, fun.” a i l m

In crafting the screenplay of Tiber’s reminiscences, Schamus wanted V

to illuminate what he saw as a chain of serendipitous events that led r i n e a to the gathering in Bethel, starting with Tiber’s phone call to Lang, - M

which he refers to as “a shot in the dark” which launched “a much e x bigger, insanely impactful, world-historical event.”

“ ” “ It’s not as if Elliot produced Woodstock, Schamus added. Michael d r e s s i n g Lang and Joel Rosenman and John Roberts and Arnie Kornfeld - produced the event. But it’s just one of those things that happened. r o s s c

s

You know, some guy’s sitting in a motel in Bethel, New York, and a there’s not much going on, and he reads the story in the local paper and he says, Oh, I've got a permit, whatever, and called them up.” h r e i b e r c

The film Taking Woodstock is rife with magical flourishes, reflecting S i e v

the ethos of a generation of youth living during the Age of Aquarius. L

18 | rollmagazine.com Revisiting the roiling, hectic but ultimately fulfilling days of 1969 was not difficult for Tiber, who became an award-winning writer and playwright in Belgium. The real challenge was containing the sprawling tale of his life. The first draft was 1,000 pages and took five years. But, Tiber insists, “I remember every detail as if it was yesterday because—and the reason for the title—I’ve been 'Taking Woodstock' with me for all of these years. That was no problem. It was just a question of organizing the material with Tom (Monte, Taking Woodstock book co-writer and editor) so it had a beginning, a middle and an end. I write in stream-of-consciousness style which publishers hate.”

James Schamus, in streamlining the story for film, subtracted some stirring—and salacious—details from Tiber’s fitful journey to becoming an openly gay man. While some of the accounts beggar belief— sharing Lee’s direction. As in Louis Malle’s sentimental Atlantic City, Taking drinks in a gay bar with Marlon Brando and Wally Cox, Woodstock’s plot demonstrates that destiny is always lurking being a protégé to artist Mark Rothko, having a drug-fueled sexual around the corner, in perfectly timed newscasts, lucky telephone encounter with Tennessee Williams and Truman Capote. Tiber is calls and random but valuable people. Lee chose to employ a especially vivid in depicting the travails of gay life in the 1950s and multi-screen technique to tell his shaggy-dog story, an homage to 60s: an era when gay men were hassled and assaulted constantly, Michael Wadleigh, who did the same for his still-electrifying 1970 not only by street thugs but also by rogue policemen. documentary Woodstock. “We were very influenced by that film,” Schamus said. “It’s not simply a document of the time; it’s a true By nature a pushy person (a quality transmitted through the womb work of art.” by his equally fearless mother) Tiber was pleased to have the chance to shove his book into Ang Lee’s hand in 2007. “I told him about If Taking Woodstock wears its heart on the sleeve of its peasant shirt Woodstock and my involvement and I gave him my book and that with unabashedly sentimentality, we are so charmed by the results was it. I was just thrilled because to get to him is impossible, let that we willingly join the time-travel. Production designer David alone submit something.” Gropman and costume designer Joseph G.

When conversation comes around to Michael Lang’s book, The Road to Woodstock, Tiber begins to bristle. After all, the pivotal action of his book, that he introduced Michael Lang to Max Yasgur, does not appear in Lang’s book. The co-organizer of Woodstock claims that colleagues, not Tiber, introduced Woodstock Ventures to the shrewd dairy farmer.

“It's not possible,” Tiber said of Lang’s account. “Max was my milkman for ten years. He came when I had festivals on my grounds for nine years. Max donated milk and cottage cheese to my actors because we had nothing—no money, no income. It’s ludicrous.”

“There's only one explanation I have for it all is that it’s 40 years later, and everyone has their own memories. So my book is my memoir and it doesn't matter to me what the others say. It doesn’t make a difference; I know what happened and I tell it.”

Michael Lang, who read Taking Woodstock, said in a telephone interview, “The book is pretty much a fanciful idea of what I think [Elliot] would have liked to have done for us. The facts are that he made the call and that’s why we got to Bethel and, of course, we will be forever grateful to him for that. And he had some involvement: we rented his motel and he was very helpful to us. But he didn't really have a relationship with Max or the permit—we didn't really need a [festival] permit. We needed building permits. So all of that was just fanciful.”

Lang has kinder words for the Ang Lee film. “There are some terrific performances, charming. It stays away from a lot of the places Elliot goes in the book. But it’s a fascinating look at his family dynamic and also brought me back to those days.”

COMPASSIONATE CAPITALISM, PSYCHEDELIC VISION: MICHAEL LANG’S THE ROAD TO WOODSTOCK

For historians, musicologists and scholars of the American “Every time I read something that annoyed me, I thought about it,” counterculture, Michael Lang’s The Road to Woodstock is a bright, he said in a telephone interview. “I hate reading what people think engaging read. His reminiscences are measured, clear-eyed and I was thinking when I did things.” reflect an astounding level of recall. Complementing his tale, co- About 18 months ago, a publisher approached Lang with the idea writer Holly George-Warren has interviewed numerous people who of a memoir. Having excelled in producing concerts and films, worked to make the Woodstock Music & Art Fair something that Lang was nonetheless daunted by the idea of working on a book. was, if not a resounding financial success, then a glorious garden “I suspect it was making the commitment to really emotionally go party for hippies whose principles and ramifications still resonate back there and relive it,” he said. But once he began writing the first across the world. chapters, Lang found he was sparking corners of his brain that had lay dormant for almost four decades. Lang, who continued to work as an event coordinator and producer after 1969, and who still lives in the Ulster County town that inspired “Suddenly things became really vivid: seeing faces and smelling the festival’s name, said that writing his memoirs was not a priority. smells and remembering actually being in places.” But the idea of telling his story would arise sporadically over the years, he said, especially after reading yet another inaccurate In The Road to Woodstock, Lang recounts the union of executive account of the festival. suits and laidback hippies, each with a different work style, who 20 | rollmagazine.com nonetheless plowed ahead to defy a fleet of challenges. A looming deadline, a huge cow field that needed to be electrified, and scores of angry Hudson Valley villagers (all but carrying pitchforks and torches) who vowed to keep the concertgoers from laying waste to their quiet world. It is a testament to Lang’s vivid storytelling that as they follow the day-to-day struggles leading up to August 15, 1969, readers will hold our breath in anticipation—even while knowing that Woodstock Ventures eventually prevailed.

The Woodstock fanatic will be thrilled by the snapshots of behind- the-scenes players in the book, as well as a complete list of the performers and their set lists, guaranteed to decide any barroom argument between grizzled festival veterans.

What repeated inaccuracy in the Legend of Woodstock irks Lang the most?

“There is somewhat of a perception that a lot of it was accidental, [but] a lot of people worked very hard to actually make it happen.”

“The only thing that I think is a little off the mark is that everybody thinks that it was a trouble-free and amazing confluence of factors that all coalesced around the fact that [admission] was free, It really isn't that. It was free because we didn't get the fences and the gates and the ticket booths up; there wasn’t any place to buy them. Most people who were coming were looking for places to buy tickets.”

Lang continues to master his role in bridging the worlds of capitalism, entertainment and progressive politics; he produced a concert at the 1989 fall of the Berlin Wall, and also produced Woodstock 1994 and 1999. He also plans to shoot a film long in development—a Russian classic of magic realism literature called The Master of Margarita, as well as mount a Broadway musical. Its working title is The Summer of ’69.

For four decades, Lang has heard people canonize and demonize him for the Woodstock festival. He has weathered scholars and sociologists who have characterized Woodstock alternately as the zenith of the counterculture movement and the death-knell of it. But Lang stands by his claim that the event had positive ramifications that defined the American agenda for decades to come. Woodstock not only gave a global platform to issues of human rights, demilitarization and environmentalism, he said, but the festival succeeded in closing the American generation gap.

“I think what happened at Woodstock is everybody recognized that these were just kids…their own kids. And it put everything back into perspective for people. That really went a long way to opening up the conversation and communication between kids and their parents, this generation and the next.”

Ulster County-based writer Jay Blotcher’s cousin Nancy Mulinelli was a member of Jimi Hendrix’s retinue at Woodstock; her backstage pass read “Girl 3”.

One summer’s Christmas Video monologue that is so very sad…it’s funny. And in How afternoon, pack a nice picnic, maybe a bottle of wine, and swing over The Dinosaurs Became Extinct, playwright David Rich gives us something to the East side of the Hudson (I-84 to Beacon works). Get on 9D going that’s always worth laughing at; humans acting like animals, with Noah’s south, and enjoy a pleasant riverside drive through the charming town wife Sadie using all her chutzpah to convince him to leave the troublesome of Cold Spring. Keep going until you see the signs for Boscobel, turn in dinosaurs off the Ark. Shandaken Theatrical Society Playhouse, 10 Church and park. Stroll across the grounds and gardens of one of those great St., Phoenicia, www.stsplayhouse.com, 845.688.2279.

His Eco-Machine™ design has won several accolades, including the 2008 Buckminster Fuller Challenge Award, yearly awarded by a distinguished jury to “support the development and implementation of a strategy that has significant potential to solve humanity’s most pressing problems.” His goal: to make more available—“commercialize,” if you will—his discoveries of ecological processes “with an approach that is well suited for reuse applications in municipal and a variety of commercial wastewater environments, including commercial residential designs.” 845.255.0869

After consulting with Dr. Todd, Skip had found the right solution willbuilders.com to the wastewater problem that reflected Omega’s values. But, he also saw it as a spirited response to both the aforementioned LEED certification and the Living Building Challenge™, created by the Cascadia Region Green Building Council to challenge builders, owners, architects, engineers, and design professionals to build environmentally sound and self-sustaining buildings.

Anybody who has ever known or worked with Skip Backus will tell advertising design you, “The man gets things done”. With the concept in mind, he approached the architectural firm BNIM, one of the country's top branding sustainable design firms, and soon the vision became a fledgling reality, starting with a groundbreaking in 2007 featuring New York’s brochures then-First Lady Silda Wall Spitzer. publication design The first order of business was to dig and install a series of web site design equalization tanks under the parking lot, to collect and hold wastewater while handling any surge loads during high usage annual reports periods. Then, construction was underway, starting with a series of outdoor concrete cells, sunk underground with connective piping, design logo design for the constructed wetlands; the first stop for the wastewater coming from the holding tanks. letterheads

Skip explains that these wetlands, with its sequence of reeds, ferns, business cards wildflowers, cattails and indigenous grasses is where the process starts to “digest the nitrogen and phosphorous, and the bacterial dmc media kits 'loading' of the wastewater. And it does that through the actual root systems of the plants, absorbing minerals and heavy metals, whatever is still moving through the waste stream.” A series of pumps guide the water through the outdoor chambers, powered by the solar panels on the roof. dmcdesign Then, the water reaches the interior of the main building, a primarily concrete, steel, and glass structure with large passive solar south-facing windows, and indoor holding pens for a variety of semi- c o n t i n u e d o n p g 44... 43 | rollmagazine.com c o n t i n u e d f r o m p g 44...

What We Eat

he third area of progress in green or sustainable living in the Hudson Valley is no less exciting or transformative. Films like Super-Size Me, King Corn, and Food, Inc are bringing a much-needed conversation to the national level, which is... “What has happened Tto our food system?” Our national diet has, in the last 50 years, morphed into a giant food-industrial complex in which our relationship to the food we eat has been removed many times over. Here in the Hudson Valley, thankfully, we are experiencing a farming resurgence, or even, dare we say, revolution.

This revolution toward a closer more natural relationship to the food we produce and eat may not have started here in the Hudson Valley, but driving along county roads throughout the area, you can still see small farms, wineries, orchards, farm stands, and farmers’ markets. The Greenhorn movement, born out of New York, is populating the region with fresh new faces in the agricultural scene. Old ideas have become new again as more and more people care about and make choices regarding our stewardship of the land and its resources.

Among the growing population of those propelling us further down the road to food independence and control is the Hudson Valley Seed Bank, which is working with area farms to preserve heirloom organic seeds for the area residents to purchase. With the large agribusiness conglomerates, seed saving is anathema to their business model. Seed saving, and preserving our heirloom vegetables, will not only ensure our right to control our food production, but will also take us back to the time when our food was special, tastier, and better for our bodies.

Locally, we can support these efforts by shopping at local farmers’ markets, local health food stores, and stores that carry local produce. Also, CSAs or community supported agriculture co-ops, are available to join at very reasonable costs, especially in that you can actually have a direct relationship with farmers themselves and the farms where the food is grown.

This practice might sound comically barbaric to you, but I think it has a certain resemblance to the way you have been dealing with your own flaws and excesses: with inordinate force. In the coming weeks, I really think it's important not to punish yourself for any reason, Pisces, even if it's in a supposedly good cause.

In the U.S., there is perhaps no category of wine more misunderstood Re c e nt Co ntr o v e r s y i n th e EU than pink wine, known to most as rosé (French term adopted While saignée is the most common method for making rosé wine, it worldwide), but also as blush, rosato (Italian), rosado (Spanish) and is not the only means. Some producers simply blend red and white weissherbst (German). One can only speculate as to the reasons, wines to create a rosé. This method is used in many countries, but but they must certainly be wrapped in our own post-Prohibition with the exception of sparkling wines, not in France and other EU zeitgeist. Is it perhaps that we feel rosé is lacking as a wine: not-quite- countries. A recent proposal to allow this method in the EU was red? Americans are known to covet the biggest, the best, the most met with an uproar; proponents of the traditional methods insisted intense. Thus, rosé, with its red-like, but not really red, color, must not that the entire category would be in jeopardy, that blended rosé is cut the mustard. Our prejudices could also have developed from our no more than white wine with a little red added for color, that all initial experience with pink wine—domestic white zinfandel—itself a complexity and character would be lost. Although this proposal was quarry of confusion. At its début, California wineries cannily tacked recently withdrawn, the passionate debate remains alive, pointing to on the descriptor “white” to this oftentimes sweet blush wine, which the continuing significance of this category. is made from the red zinfandel grape, to draw in white wine drinkers.

All Perhaps part of the national ambiguity toward rosé comes from this plus its versatility make it a great food wine, an easy match for not knowing how it is produced. First and foremost, pink wines are an array of foods. Rosés are made in all different styles, from super produced using red grapes. Grape skins harbor all the color for light to quite robust in flavor, weight and color. There’s a version most grape varieties; grape juice is usually clear. Therefore, pink for almost any food at any time, from grilled seafood and fresh and even white wines can be produced from red grapes; an evident vegetable dishes in the summertime to rich brothy fish stews and example of the latter would be blanc de noirs style sparkling wines crisp-skinned roast chickens in colder months.

It is a nicely varieties. balanced blend of sweet, sour, and savory. Serve this over shaped pasta, such as campanelle, chiocciole, fusilli, or radiatori. Sausages always contain salt (indeed, the word “sausage” is derived from the Latin salsus, meaning “salted”). Salt preserves perishable protein, killing some bacteria, outright, through osmotic pressure. Salsiccie con Uova It dissolves globular protein from the meats, which then acts as For a pound of hot, cooked, pasta: a binding matrix for the bits of meat and seasonings when the sausage is cooked. Globular protein is dissolved when the meats are Ingr e d i e nt s ground or kneaded, but becomes smoothly firm when the sausage is cooked (that’s why sausage doesn’t have the texture of hamburger). 4 Tb s p . o l i v e o i l Of course, salt also adds flavor, accentuating the flavors of other 4 m e d i u m l i n k s o f s w e e t It a l i a n s a u s a g e seasonings – an effect that is especially noticeable in cold sausages, (a b o u t 3/4 p o u n d ) like salumi. 1 1/2 c u p s s e e d l e s s r e d o r b l a c k g r a p e s 2 Tb s p . b a l s a m i c v i n e g a r Sausages were probably first invented to avoid wasting blood, offal, s a l t a n d p e p p e r t o t a s t e (m a y n o t b e n e e d e d ) and small scraps of meat by packing it into handy edible containers – the stomachs, bladders and intestines of freshly-butchered animals.

In De Re Coquinaria, we find Lucanicae, a sausage named for Lucania (today’s Basilicata). It’s a complicated recipe, incorporating ingredients that are virtually unknown today (rue, ground laurel berries and liquamen – a fermented sauce, something like Thai fish sauce), as well as cumin, parsley, pepper and savory. It’s the ancestor of Portuguese linguiça and Italian Luganega. Luganega is made all over Italy, and its formulation varies widely – but the version from Basilicata is closest to what we call “sweet Italian sausage” in the US. It’s flavored with salt, pepper, fennel seeds, and sometimes red pepper flakes. If it’s called “hot Italian sausage,” more red pepper flakes are added, along with some paprika to provide enough color to allow timid diners to know what they’re getting before they bite into it.
