XXXV NO. 77 H T T P : / / 0 BSE RVER.ND.EDU Moscona, Bishop top primary election By ERIN LaRUFFA Associate News Editor With just 28 out of 3,402 votes separating them from their closet competitor, candidates Brian Moscona and Libby Bishop finished on top of Monday’s primary election for Notre Dame’s student body president. Moscona and running mate Keri Oxley received 1,302 votes, or 38 percent, while Bishop and running mate Trip c Foley received 1,274 votes, or 37 percent. Because no c ticket received more than 50 percent of the vote, there will be a runoff between the two candidates on Thursday. “We expected it to be close,” said Moscona. “I think this just shows that there were four quality candidates.” S ee Also Agreeing that the closeness of the 2002 Student race reflected the caliber of the tick­ ets running, Bishop added that the body election primary results reminded her of break down another recent election. “I t’s like B ush/G ore all over PO-4 again,” she said. The third-place ticket of Nikki McCord and Nick Williams received 411 votes, or 12 per­ cent.

  • Cracker/Adam Duritz/Susanna Hoffs/Mark Linkous: a Sunny Song/
    13 Darling One – Cracker/Adam Duritz/Susanna Hoffs/Mark Linkous: A Sunny Song/ ... Page 1 of 3 13 Darling One – Cracker/Adam Duritz/Susanna Hoffs/Mark Linkous: A Sunny Song/A Shady Backstory This song appears on the latest Cracker Album “Sunrise In The Land of Milk and Honey” (2009). But the song is quite old. It was written by Mark Linkous and I in 1993 or 1994. Perhaps it is fitting that this pretty song appears on a Cracker album that is about things being not what they seem. The sun comes up and in the light of day their is a bit of a reckoning. I’m not talking about the song itself. The song is an innocent bystander. The tiny seed of negativity is in the backstory. It involves some shady business dealings with this song. MARK LINKOUS But first let’s talk about the song. The song itself is on the surface a simple love song. It rocks but has an undertone of soul to the the arrangement. At least the Cracker version. Marks original version reminded me more of something from one of Neil Youngs rock records. Not much to say about the story in the song except it is one in which the protagonist wishes to relieve his loves emotional burdens. Of course there is a deeper meaning. Mark Linkous is really speaking about himself. He wishes he could stop “looking for something that’s not lost”. He wants the burden of his depression, the gnawing dissatisfaction and unhappiness lifted from his soul. Mark wrote the majority of this song.

    Presents with AMMEERRIICCAA''SS SOOUULL LIIVVEE!! Jon Chandler A S L Featuring: Ernie Martinez, Johnny Neill, & Jeff Graves AAMMEERRIICCAA’’’SS SSOOUULL LLIIVVEE! with Jon Chandler A live concert series from the Olde Town Pickin’ Parlor in Arvada, Colorado Kit Simon’s Olde Town Pickin’ Parlor in Arvada, Colorado is one of the country’s premier acoustic musical instrument shops. Its 19th-century brick walls are decked with high end guitars, mandolins, dobros, banjos and just about anything else with strings. What better place to host a monthly gathering of the Rocky Mountain region’s best singer/songwriters? On the third Tuesday of each month, the shop fills up with an audience that’s come to expect the best in Colorado music. For two hours, singer/ songwriter/author Jon Chandler welcomes two guests to the stage for America’s Soul Live!, a round-robin, Austin City Limits-type acoustic concert showcasing regional and national singer-songwriters. Bassist/audio producer Jeff Graves, string wizard Ernie Martinez, and fiddler extraordinaire Johnny Neill (who collectively play with Chandler as Jon Chandler & the Wichitones) are on hand, as well. Simon approached Chandler with the concept of starting a songwriter’s showcase in early 2004, with the first edition taking place in March of that year. The idea was to let a small audience interact with performers they would normally see on larger stages. “I perform at a lot of festivals, and the highlights are always after the main shows when writers and players get together in private rooms or hotel lobbies to jam,” says Chandler.

A revolution in roots-rock began in the late 1980s in Chicago with Souled American and Uncle Tupelo, and in the 1990s became a new genre altogether. It was Nashville's country music transposed into the small bedrooms of the disaffected youth in the small towns of the heartland. Those bands had rediscovered country and folk music for the hardcore generation: their descendants dumped hardcore for the most spartan and traditional of sounds. Led by singer-songwriters Jay Farrar and Jeff Tweedy, Uncle Tupelo (1) pretty much invented a new genre when they released No Depression (1990), a collection of country ballads played with the fury of hardcore. Abandoning the punk edge and focusing on the depressed stories, the acoustic tour de force of March 16-20 1992 (1992) invented more than a genre: it created a movement for sincere, populist and political music. Anodyne (1993) hinted at the mainstream appeal of this idea. After they parted ways, the two leaders would form two of the most influential bands of the 1990s: Son Volt and Wilco.

    Rolling Stone : Good Evening Obscurity Page 1 of 3 Good Evening Obscurity Pain and death fuel Sparklehorse's inspired, rustic rock Posted Feb 10, 1999 12:00 AM The first thing Sparklehorse songwriter Mark Linkous wanted to do after he died was ride one of the four motorcycles he keeps at his farm in rural Andersonville, Virginia. Well, that's not exactly true. The *first* thing he wanted to do after he died was to learn how to live again, and (here's the really scary part) to see if he could still write a song. "For awhile there," Linkous says, "I was really scared that when I technically died -- which I guess I did for a few minutes -- that the part of my brain that allowed me my ability to write songs would be damaged." In 1996, an overdose of Valium and anti-depressants in a London hotel room very nearly cut short Linkous' career before it had really even begun. Sparklehorse had been finishing up a European tour in support of its debut, Vivadixiesubmarinetransmissionplot , when Linkous keeled over in his hotel room. It was fourteen hours before the singer was discovered unconscious, his legs pinned underneath him with their circulation cut off. When medics attempted to straighten his legs, the procedure triggered a heart attack. A three-month stay at St. Mary's hospital in London and no less than seven operations were required to save Linkous' legs, which doctors initially told him would have to be amputated. Even so, the singer says he was in a morphine-medicated state for two years after the accident.

  • Artist: Jim Lauderdale Album: Country Super Hits Vol 1 Label: Yep Roc
    2006 www.realrootscafe.com [email protected] Artist: Jim Lauderdale Album: Country Super Hits Vol 1 Label: Yep Roc Records woensdag 20 december 2006 Even niet opgelet en de titel ‘Country Super Hits Vol.1’ zet je op het verkeerde been. Het is namelijk geen verzameling oude countryhits van Jim Lauderdale, maar een gloednieuw afgeleverd werkstuk dat, in samenwerking met de mij onbekende Odie Blackmon, werd gemaakt. Beiden schreven - op één na – de liedjes en deden de productie. In Amerika zal dit album waarschijnlijk hoge ogen gooien bij publiek en pers, hier te lande zal alleen de verstokte liefhebber van ouderwetse country & western, in een enigszins vernieuwde outfit, even opkijken. Dus vermoed ik dat deze bespreking tegen vele dovenmansoren zal zijn gericht. Dat valt wat mij betreft goed te snappen, omdat luisteren naar driekwartier Honky Tonk immers een tamelijk zelfkastijdend tijdverdrijf is. Daar kan het uitnodigende openingsnummer van deze cd Honky Tonk Mood Again, het grote koor aan muzikanten en de heldere productie niet veel aan verhelpen. Ook al zijn er een paar nummers met een lichte folk- en bluesinvloed, het blijft té country & western. Waarmee ik het traditionele countrygenre in het algemeen en deze cd in het bijzondere niet wil diskwalificeren. Hooguit valt er wat aan te merken op de smaak van ondergetekende. Maar ja, daarover valt in wezen altijd te twisten. Huub Thomassen Artist: Josh Ottum Album: Like The Season Label: Tapete Records woensdag 20 december 2006 Na vier jaar lang muziek te hebben gemaakt in zijn slaapkamer kwam de uit Seattle afkomstige singer- songwriter Josh Ottum tot het idee maar eens een debuut album te maken.
