  • The Twenty Greatest Music Concerts I've Ever Seen
    THE TWENTY GREATEST MUSIC CONCERTS I'VE EVER SEEN Whew, I'm done. Let me remind everyone how this worked. I would go through my Ipod in that weird Ipod alphabetical order and when I would come upon an artist that I have seen live, I would replay that concert in my head. (BTW, since this segment started I no longer even have an ipod. All my music is on my laptop and phone now.) The number you see at the end of the concert description is the number of times I have seen that artist live. If it was multiple times, I would do my best to describe the one concert that I considered to be their best. If no number appears, it means I only saw that artist once. Mind you, I have seen many artists live that I do not have a song by on my Ipod. That artist is not represented here. So although the final number of concerts I have seen came to 828 concerts (wow, 828!), the number is actually higher. And there are "bar" bands and artists (like LeCompt and Sam Butera, for example) where I have seen them perform hundreds of sets, but I counted those as "one," although I have seen Lecompt in "concert" also. Any show you see with the four stars (****) means they came damn close to being one of the Top Twenty, but they fell just short. So here's the Twenty. Enjoy and thanks so much for all of your input. And don't sue me if I have a date wrong here and there.

  • Summer 2015E Asonvolume 44S Number 2 a Note from the Executive Director
    SSummer 2015E ASONVolume 44S Number 2 A Note from the Executive Director PAUL W. MEYER, The F. Otto Haas Executive Director Flora of Pennsylvania: Taking Plant Science Research to the Next Level otanical and horticultural research were central to the vision of John and Lydia Morris as they planned the future of the institution we now know as the Morris Arboretum of the University Bof Pennsylvania. And, since 1933, Arboretum staff and students have focused on developing information and expertise on the native and naturalized plants of Pennsylvania. This work has resulted in a series of definitive publications including two editions of Plants of Pennsylvania, Trees of Photo: Nick Kelsh Pennsylvania, and most recently, Aquatic Plants of Pennsylvania. In 1980, the Arboretum assumed leadership in developing an electronic database for the Pennsylvania flora, and since then it has continued to build and expand the wealth of information included. Today, this database covers more than 3,000 taxa of plants and includes more than 400,000 records of plant occurrences, each based on a physical herbarium specimen. Information derived from the database informs teachers, students, landscape professionals, and natural lands managers, as well as amateur plant enthusiasts. Each year the database is augmented with new information resulting from extensive field work conducted throughout the Commonwealth. As an outcome of strategic planning, this work will continue, and the Morris Arboretum will build its expertise on Pennsylvania plants and develop recommendations for their protection and conservation. However, while science has moved forward, we currently do not have the laboratory equipment and supplies needed to conduct the tests and experiments which will answer critical questions related to understanding Pennsylvania plants, especially those which are rare, threatened or endangered.

  • TWO TURNTABLES and a MICROPHONE by Andy Baum, C'72
    TWO TURNTABLES AND A MICROPHONE By Andy Baum, C’72 Growing up, my only career ambitions were to write for a newspaper and to be on the radio. When I was admitted to Penn I saw the chance to achieve both. So during freshman year I heeled both the Daily Pennsylvanian and WXPN. The DP was an august institution. A bunch of unpaid students somehow produced a well- written, full-sized print newspaper every weekday without benefit of computers. Everyone on campus read it. A leadership position at the paper was a serious credential, and helped launch many journalistic careers. The highlight of my heeling was spending election night in 1968 standing by the UPI teletype, ripping off and then delivering to the correct desk the election return reports. It felt important. WXPN wasn’t important. It was lodged in a few run-down rooms on the top floor of Houston Hall. Its AM station broadcast through electrical wires in the dorms. It had a Top 40 format. Since it was easy for students to hear the real thing on WFIL or WIBG, the audience consisted mostly of friends of the student DJs and a few other souls looking for an easy way to win a Campus Joe Pagano pizza by being the “third caller.” (Often, the winner was the only caller.) The FM side was more serious business, but it didn’t have much impact on campus life, and was barely known off-campus except among alumni who tuned in to hear Penn football games. I made the cut at both.

Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.
