EXIT MUSIC - Orchestra ACT ONE About 10 minutes prior to curtain time, CLAUDE comes on stage, looks around, and then sits down in the center. At the same time, the TRIBE appears from the wings, in the tower, on the scaffoldings, and in the Audience. THEY carry flowers and burning incense sticks, which THEY hand out to the members of the Audience. About four minutes later, TWO GIRLS come on stage with an "altar" cloth, and a burning flame in some kind of earthenware receptacle on a stand. THEY set this up in front of CLAUDE. A strange kind of eleqtronic sound starts in the orchestra (ad lib sounds from percussion and lead guitar) and it builds and intensifies over the next five minutes. Bird calls are employed here by the TRIBE. At the same time the TRIBE in a ritualistic kind of slow motion starts con­ verging on stage, each person concerned with something -- an article of clothing, a part of their body, anything personal to each. BERGER and SHEILA approach CLAUDE, and BERGER, with a pair of scissors, cuts a lock of CLAUDE'S hair. At this, the TRIBE freezes in mid-action. BERGER hands the cut hair to SHEILA who puts it into the flame. The TRIBE utters an earthy sound together and unfreezes, resuming slow-motion movement. RONNY picks up the flame and starts to sing. 1-2 I 1 I AQUARIUS RONNY WHEN THE MOON IS IN THE SEVENTH HOUSE AND JUPITER ALIGNS WITH MARS THEN PEACE WILL GUIDE THE PLANETS AND LOVE WILL· STEER THE STARS RONNY & 6 MORE THIS IS THE DAWNING OF THE AGE OF AQUARIUS THE AGE OF AQUARIUS (4 more join in) AQUARIUS AQUARIUS MEN HARMONY AND UNDERSTANDING WOMEN SYMPATHY AND TRUST ABOUNDING MEN NO MORE FALSEHOOD OR DERISION WOMEN GOLDEN LIVING DREAMS OF VISIONS MEN MYSTIC CRYSTAL REVELATION ALL AND THE MIND'S TRUE LIBERATION AQUARIUS AQUARIUS RONNY WHEN THE MOON IS IN THE SEVENTH HOUSE AND JUPITER ALIGNS WITH MARS THEN PEACE WILL GUIDE THE PLANETS ALL AND LOVE WILL STEER THE STARS THIS IS THE DAWNING OF THE AGE OF AQUARIUS THE AGE OF AQUARIUS AQUARIUS AQUARIUS 1966, 1967, 1968 Galt MacDermot, James Rado, Gerome Ragni, Nat Shapiro and United Artists Music Co., Inc. 1-3 ALL (Cont'd) AQUARIUS AQUARIUS AQUARIUS (Music out) BERGER Transcendental meditation on the ocean of reality is love ••• TRIBE Love ...

  • Strangers No More: “When Harry Met [Dante]…”
    Kate Dowling Bryn Mawr School, Baltimore, MD Dante Senior Elective at Gilman School Strangers No More: “When Harry Met [Dante]…” If Dante were to listen to “Stranger with the Melody” at this point on his journey, I think he would be able to relate it a lot to his sense of moving into a different part of his life. Right now, Dante is overcome with emotion, as he has lost Vergil but also been reunited with Beatrice and made it to Paradise. The stranger in the poem reminds me a lot of Vergil, since at the beginning of the song his presence seems almost godlike. When the anonymous voice comes through the walls to Harry, it seems like it is not even attached to a real person; instead, this man appeared just for Harry, as if he was meant to hear his song. Just like this stranger, Vergil appears to Dante and seems almighty. Through Inferno he knows everything and can tell Dante exactly what to do. On Mount Purgatory, Vergil is more unsure, but he still manages to get Dante to the top successfully. Vergil cannot stay with Dante forever, though, and soon we see how Vergil is limited by his Paganism and restricted to his place in Limbo. Just like Vergil, this unknown singer is limited, in this case by his own emotions. The singer can only repeat the same words over and over again, and he seems lost because he can never move on from them. He never will be able to either, because he says that only his girl can tell him the words, while he can just play the music.

Surveying the area through a lens of geographic place and space, this research will look at the historical factors that led to the rise of a counterculture here. To contextualize this development, it is necessary to examine the development of a cosmopolitan neighborhood after World War II that was multicultural and bohemian into something culturally unique.

  • Witty Songs ©Ted Schaar 2011
    Witty Songs ©Ted Schaar 2011 Several years ago through eBay I bought colored-vinyl versions of The Beatles 1962-1966 (The Red Album) and The Beatles 1967-1970 (The Blue Album) from a major fan named Ed. After I paid, he asked if I would be interested in some bootlegs he had that featured sessions recorded while The Beatles were working on their amazing albums—he was willing to transfer them to CD free of charge. I mentioned in my thank you e-mail that I was old enough to have seen the Beatles when they first appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1964. He replied it was "an honor" to meet someone who saw the Beatles live (Ed was born in 1966). This made me think that although those who watched The Beatles that night were part of a huge television audience—almost 74 million1—it's a set whose numbers have decreased tremendously in the 45 years that have passed. That realization, Ed's comment and generous offer to send the CDs, and the about-the-same-time coincidence of having dinner with a man named Bill who saw the Beatles perform in Milwaukee in the fall of 1964 started a chain of events that led me to write two articles. The first, "A Day in the Center of Beatlemania," is about the band's September 4, 1964, appearance at the Arena in Milwaukee. The seed for the second—this one—was planted after Ed's CDs arrived. These were interesting for their roughness and for the insights they provided into the experimentation that produced musical passages such as the unusual Paul McCartney organ part that opens and becomes the backbone of "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds." On one I was hearing works in progress ranging from the acoustic beginning of "All Together Now" to John Lennon performing an early version of "Good Morning, Good Morning" when out of the blue comes Pete Drake, his talking guitar, and the sliding-steel-words: "I'm just a guitar, everybody picks on me." The track is from the bootleg Through Many Years that focuses on George Harrison and Ringo Starr.2 Ed had combined various bootlegs on each of the CDs he sent.

    August 2012 Newsletter ------------------------------------ Yesterday & Today Records P.O.Box 54 Miranda NSW 2228 Phone: (02) 95311710 Email:[email protected] www.yesterdayandtoday.com.au ------------------------------------------------ Postage Australia post is essentially the world’s most expensive service. We aim to break even on postage and will use the best method to minimise costs. One good innovation is the introduction of the “POST PLUS” satchels, which replace the old red satchels and include a tracking number. Available in 3 sizes they are 500 grams ($7.50) 3kgs ($11.50) 5kgs ($14.50) P & P. The latter 2 are perfect for larger interstate packages as anything over 500 grams even is going to cost more than $11.50. We can take a cd out of a case to reduce costs. Basically 1 cd still $2. 2cds $3 and rest as they will fit. Again Australia Post have this ludicrous notion that if a package can fit through a certain slot on a card it goes as a letter whereas if it doesn’t it is classified as a “parcel” and can cost up to 5 times as much. One day I will send a letter to the Minister for Trade as their policies are distinctly prejudicial to commerce. Out here they make massive profits but offer a very poor number of services and charge top dollar for what they do provide. Still, the mail mostly always gets there. But until ssuch times as their local monopoly remains, things won’t be much different. ----------------------------------------------- For those long term customers and anyone receiving these newsletters for the first time we have several walk in sales per year, with the next being Saturday August 25th.
