2000 Terrapin Invitational Tournament - Division 1 Round 9 Questions by John Nam
2000 Terrapin Invitational Tournament - Division 1 Round 9 Questions by John Nam Tossups 1. It tells of life at 27 rue de Fleurus, which became a hub of artistic discussion in the early 1900s. Featuring real-life encounters of its author and its narrator with artists from Picasso to Hemingway, this 1932 work was its author's first critical and commercial success. FTP, name this work, which despite its title mainly concerns the life story of its author, Gertrude Stein. Ans: The Autobiography ofAlice B. Toklas 2. First formed in August 1965, their original lineup included Bob Harvey and Jerry Pelonquin, who were soon initially replaced by Alexander Skip Spence and Signe Anderson, then by Spencer Dryden and Jack Casady. Their debut album was moderately successful, a former member of Great Society joined in 1966 and the subsequent release of Surrealistic Pillow that they took off. FTP, name this seminal band whose most famous members were Jorma Kaukonen, Marty Balin, Paul Kantner and Grace Slick. Ans: Jefferson Airplane 3. While studying for the bar in New Salem, Illinois, he began courting the fiancee of John McNamar, who had gone to get his parents in New York. McNamar's fiancee agreed to marry him ifshe could get an "honorable release" from her engagement, but got milk fever and died before McNamar's return in the fall of 1835. Such is the tale of the first love of this man for Ann Rutledge, mildly ironic considering his future reputation for honesty. FTP, name this assassination victim and u.S. statesman. Ans: Abraham Lincoln 4. -

Addio a Paul Kantner, “The Brain” Dei Jefferson Airplane
Addio a Paul Kantner, “the brain” dei Jefferson Airplane È morto a 74 anni il chitarrista Paul Kantner, uno dei fondatori della band Jefferson Airplane. Lo riporta il San Francisco Chronicle. Protagonista della scena musicale della west coast americana, Kantner è stato stroncato giovedì 28 gennaio da un attacco di cuore a San Francisco, la città in cui era nato il 17 marzo 1941. Chi era Paul Kantner? Ecco cosa scrive sul sito ufficiale dei Jefferson Airplane Greg Gildersleeve (1998). Anche se non ha mai scritto o cantato come voce leader nessun brano di successo, Paul Kantner ha avuto un impatto maggiore di qualsiasi altro membro sui Jefferson Airplane/Starship. È suo il record della più lunga, ininterrotta appartenenza (19 anni) alla band, ed è stato a volte l’unico membro delle origini della band presente in eventi con JA. Il suo interesse per la fantascienza l’ha portato a trasformare i Jefferson Airplane nei Jefferson Starship, e, in tutto questo, ha presieduto alla democrazia sregolata e talvolta disordinata della band. Se Marty Balin era l’anima della band, e Grace Slick il suo volto, Paul Kantner potrebbe esserne considerato, the brain, il cervello. | 1 Addio a Paul Kantner, “the brain” dei Jefferson Airplane L’unico nativo di San Francisco tra gli iniziatori degli Airplane/Starship, Paul Lorin Kantner nasce il 17 marzo 1941, da Paul S. e Cora Lee (Fortier) Kantner. Paul aveva un fratellastro e una sorellastra parecchio più grandi. Quando Paul aveva otto anni, sua madre morì; e, ricorderà in seguito, non gli fu consentito di partecipare al suo funerale, ma fu portato al circo. -

Music 262: Rock Music, History and Social Analysis, San Francisco Scene
Music 262: Rock Music, History and Social Analysis, San Francisco Scene [Music Playing on Piano] [Brian Ward]: So there’s another movement in rock n’ roll that happens that’s really related to folk rock and psychedelic rock and it happens in a specific region. This is in San Francisco in the early to later 1960s. This is around a neighborhood built at an intersection in San Francisco, the intersection of Haight and Ashbury. This is a growing sub-culture of young people in the United States commonly known today as hippies. They lived in these communes and a lot of them were starving artists or drop-outs, anti-establishment people. They all congregated in this one city at this one particular time. Along with this we have a large community of folk musicians. We have writers like Ken Kesey that are there. He’s leading these experiments with LSD known as the Acid Tests, also known as Happenings that were happening in San Francisco and all along the west coast. It’s estimated that there were 500 to 1500 bands in San Francisco alone during this period. A big thing about this hippie movement is the philosophy of existentialism. Existentialism is a philosophy that states if a person is totally responsible for their own life and through their experience and their own decision making process are able to come up with their own moral code and way of living. So what this creates is a lot of freedom and a way for them to speak to the older generation in a semi-intelligent way and say, “Look. -

I’m thankful for my parents, Donald and Jane McNett, who consistently pestered me by asking “How’s it coming with your thesis? Are you done yet?” I’m thankful for friends, such as: Adam Suarez, Phillip Sitter, Brandon Roney, Robert Gayden and Zach Folken, who would periodically ask me “What’s your thesis about again?” That was a question that would unintentionally put me back on track. In terms of staying on task my thesis committee (mentioned elsewhere) was nothing short of a godsend.

Penn's Picks: Garage/Psych Volume 1
Hit Songs Deconstructed Deconstructing Today's Hits for Songwriting Success http://reports.hitsongsdeconstructed.com Penn's Picks: Garage/Psych Volume 1 With the retro Psych/Garage trend in full effect, I thought it would be fun to kick off the inaugural Penn’s Pick Playlist with a look back to where it all began – the 1960s. Chances are that you’re already familiar with some of the more “mainstream” cuts of the era such as White Rabbit (Jefferson Airplane), The End (The Doors) and Hurdy Gurdy Man (Donovan), but I’m going to take you down the rabbit hole to hear some lesser known gems that stand their own alongside their more mainstream contemporaries. Slip Inside This House (1967): 13th Floor Elevators You can’t mention the word psychedelic without mentioning the 13th Floor Elevators. Formed in Austin, Texas in 1965 and led by the Psych legend Roky Erickson, the Elevators were one of the first, and best, representatives of the genre. Slip Inside This House is a cut from their second album, Easter Everywhere, and stands to this day as one of the true, yet lesser known gems of the era. War & Peace (1969): Alexander “Skip” Spence Following his departure from the ill-fated Moby Grape (there’s a lesson to be learned from releasing too many singles at once!), Alexander “Skip” Spence went into the studio to cut his legendary Oar album just a number of months after being committed to Bellevue following his attempt to cut down his Grape bandmates with an axe while in a delusional state. -

An indispensable classic that defines the indefinable.” –John Zorn “Chusid takes us through the musical looking glass to the other side of the bizarro universe, where pop spelled back- wards is . pop? A fascinating collection of wilder cards and beyond-avant talents.” –Lenny Kaye Irwin Chusid “This book is filled with memorable characters and their preposterous-but-true stories. As a musicologist, essayist, and humorist, Irwin Chusid gives good value for your enter- tainment dollar.” –Marshall Crenshaw Outsider musicians can be the product of damaged DNA, alien abduction, drug fry, demonic possession, or simply sheer obliviousness. But, believe it or not, they’re worth listening to, often outmatching all contenders for inventiveness and originality. This book profiles dozens of outsider musicians, both prominent and obscure, and presents their strange life stories along with photographs, interviews, cartoons, and discographies.
