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 Michael Lang, 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. Ang Lee’s new film Taking Woodstock—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.

    THE BRILLIANT MISTAKES [email protected] • 917.821.6262 THE BRILLIANT MISTAKES’ “DISTANT DRUMMING” SET FOR RELEASE OCTOBER 7 The Brilliant Mistakes—the New York City based band lauded for “restlessy catchy hooks, a clever turn of phrase and frothy, piano-driven pop with heart, soul and smarts” (The Boston Globe) are ready to unveil Distant Drumming, their new album set for release on October 7 on the band’s own Aunt Mimi’s Records. The album was produced by bassist Lincoln Schleifer (Levon Helm, Buddy Miller) and recorded at Lincoln’s Log Cabin in The Bronx, features guest musicians Mike Viola (The Candy Butchers, Walk Hard), Larry Campbell (Bob Dylan, Paul Simon) and Marc Shulman (Suzanne Vega) and was mastered by Fred Kevorkian (Ryan Adams, The White Stripes) in Hell’s Kitchen in Manhattan. Songwriter-bassist Erik Philbrook describes Distant Drumming as an album that musically and lyrically is about “finding and following the rhythms of your own life.” To that end the band sought to create a more organic album and delved deeper in the studio, experimenting with dynamics, arrangements, atmosphere, instrumentation and grooves to create music not only rich in meaning and emotion, but one that mixes blasts of majestic rock with meditative and moody acoustic pop and folk. The result is a ruthlessly thrilling album by a band that has long flown beneath the radar of the mainstream but are kindred spirits with such contemporaryAmericana envelope- pushers as Wilco, My Morning Jacket and Spoon. Distant Drumming benefits from the evolution of the band’s two songwriters—Alan Walker and Erik Philbrook— into separate but equally provocative lyricists.

  • The Roots Report: an Interview with Dennis Diken
    The Roots Report: An Interview with Dennis Diken In December of last year, Pat DiNizio, lead singer, guitarist and songwriter of the band The Smithereens, died at the age of 62. The Smithereens have had hits with songs such as, “Blood and Roses,” “Only a Memory” and “A Girl Like You.” DiNizio’s untimely passing was not only an emotional blow to the band, but it put their future in jeopardy. In January of this year they turned an already scheduled show into a tribute to DiNizio. At that concert several guest vocalists/musicians joined the band and among them was Marshall Crenshaw. He is known for his hits, “Someday, Someway” and “Whenever You’re On My Mind.” Besides those songs and others he played the role of Buddy Holly in the film LaBamba and began his career as John Lennon in Beatlemania. Crenshaw will be filling the vacant vocalist spot along with the surviving members of the Smithereens: Dennis Diken, Jim Babjak, and Mike Masaros when they come to the Greenwich Odeum on Saturday, November 17. I spoke with drummer, Dennis Diken about what has been going on with the band. Dennis Diken (Smithereens): Hey, John, it’s Dennis Diken from the Smithereens John Fuzek (Motif): Hi, how are you? Thanks for calling! DD: I am good, how are you doing, man? JF: I am good, so you are playing a show at the Greenwich Odeum next week, it’s a nice venue, have you ever played there? DD: It does not ring a bell but it’s been a long time we’ve been touring, it’s possible but I don’t think so JF: Maybe you played the Narrows last time that you were in town? I am not sure, I just know that I have missed your show every time you play! DD: I don’t think we have been to RI in a while.

Mammina stava urlando a squarciagola il mio nome, manco fosse intrappolata in un edificio in fiamme. Strillava così forte che la sua voce sovrastava il frastuono del tagliaerba che spingevo svogliatamente su e giù per il prato. Le urla arrivavano dalla reception del nostro motel a White Lake, un paesino minuscolo che si affaccia sul lago tra le montagne di Catskill. Mi girai per cercare l'incendio o quantomeno una traccia di fumo. Niente, naturalmente. Quindi tutta questa tragedia doveva essere al massimo un rubinetto che perdeva. «Eliyahu!» Ora aveva gridato il mio nome di nascita ebraico per farmi capire che la situazione era davvero seria. «La tua povera mammina ha bisogno di te.» La sua voce mi perforava come la lama di un coltello. Spensi il vecchio tagliaerba arrugginito e m'incamminai verso la reception. Mia madre era in piedi, dietro la cassa, e fronteggiava un uomo basso con una camicia rossa, i bermuda giallo senape, i calzini al ginocchio e un cappellino calato sulla testa calva.

  • Deer Tick Talks Negativity,Ask the Artist
    CD Review: Torn Shorts’ Through the Mill Josh Grabert tears through competition It looks like the good folks with the WBRU Rock Hunt got it right again this year. They usually do (not counting 1993 when a band intimately related to the author of this article lost out to Angry Salad…but I digress). And as with acts like The Schemers in 1982, and Sasquatch & The Sick-A-Billys in 2005, Providence’s own Torn Shorts has taken top honors in 2013’s edition of the prestigious competition. Technically, Torn Shorts is the collective name for the creative efforts of the multitalented musician/songwriter Josh Grabert. Though Grabert has gained a great deal of notoriety performing live shows throughout New England as a one-man-band under the Torn Shorts banner, Grabert has enlisted the help of Zach Zarcone on bass, Nick Molak on guitar and drummer Brendan Tompkins to record Through The Mill. With the album’s opening track “Brow St,” Grabert demonstrates an ability to engage the listener with radio-friendly, hook-laden rock & roll. Delivered with a voice reminiscent of Albert Hammond combined with a bit of a “New Morning”era Bob Dylan, he establishes himself as a virile songwriter. This fact is underscored all the more by his creative use of space within the verses, an underused yet potent technique, not only with writers, but soloists as well. “’Drink that scotch’ she says before the bad news – that’s why I keep crying The Nice Guy Blues – I was never ready for the big show – the older I get the less I grow.” “Dying Houses” is a dark requiem for urban decay and those who endure the daily fight for survival.

  • The Last Bedraggled Fan Sloshed out of Max Yasgur's Muddy Pasture More Than 25 Years Ago. That's When the Debate Began About Woodstock's Historical Significance
    The last bedraggled fan sloshed out of Max Yasgur's muddy pasture more than 25 years ago. That's when the debate began about Woodstock's historical significance. True believers still call Woodstock the capstone of an era devoted to human advancement. Cynics say it was a fitting, ridiculous end to an era of naivete. Then there are those who say it was just a hell of a party. The Woodstock Music and Art Fair in 1969 drew more than 450,000 people to a pasture in Sullivan County. For four days, the site became a countercultural mini-nation in which minds were open, drugs were all but legal and love was "free". The music began Friday afternoon at 5:07pm August 15 and continued until mid-morning Monday August 18. The festival closed the New York State Thruway and created one of the nation's worst traffic jams. It also inspired a slew of local and state laws to ensure that nothing like it would ever happen again. Woodstock, like only a handful of historical events, has become part of the cultural lexicon. As Watergate is the codeword for a national crisis of confidence and Waterloo stands for ignominious defeat, Woodstock has become an instant adjective denoting youthful hedonism and 60's excess. "What we had here was a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence," said Bethel town historian Bert Feldman. "Dickens said it first: 'It was the best of times. It was the worst of times'. It's an amalgam that will never be reproduced again." Gathered that weekend in 1969 were liars and lovers, prophets and profiteers.
