    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • Community and Politics in Antebellum New York City Irish Gang Subculture James
    The Communal Legitimacy of Collective Violence: Community and Politics in Antebellum New York City Irish Gang Subculture by James Peter Phelan A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Department of History and Classics University of Alberta ©James Phelan, 2014 ii Abstract This thesis examines the influences that New York City‘s Irish-Americans had on the violence, politics, and underground subcultures of the antebellum era. During the Great Famine era of the Irish Diaspora, Irish-Americans in Five Points, New York City, formed strong community bonds, traditions, and a spirit of resistance as an amalgamation of rural Irish and urban American influences. By the middle of the nineteenth century, Irish immigrants and their descendants combined community traditions with concepts of American individualism and upward mobility to become an important part of the antebellum era‘s ―Shirtless Democracy‖ movement. The proto-gang political clubs formed during this era became so powerful that by the late 1850s, clashes with Know Nothing and Republican forces, particularly over New York‘s Police force, resulted in extreme outbursts of violence in June and July, 1857. By tracking the Five Points Irish from famine to riot, this thesis as whole illuminates how communal violence and the riots of 1857 may be understood, moralised, and even legitimised given the community and culture unique to Five Points in the antebellum era. iii Table of Contents Introduction ...................................................................................................................................

THE volume entitled "Professional Criminals of America," now submitted to the public, is not a work of fiction, but a history of the criminal classes. The writer has confined himself to facts, collected by systematic investigation and verified by patient research, during a continuous, active and honorable service of nearly a quarter of a century in the Police Department of the City of New York. Necessarily, during this long period, Inspector Thomas Byrnes has been brought into official relations with professional thieves of all grades, and has had a most favorable field for investigating the antecedents, history and achievements of the many dangerous criminals continually preying upon the community.

  • Lemmy Kilmister Was Born in Stoke-On-Trent
    Lemmy Kilmister was born in Stoke-on-Trent. Having been a member of the Rocking Vicars, Opal Butterflies and Hawkwind, Lemmy formed his own band, Motörhead. The band recently celebrated their twenty-fifth anniversary in the business. Lemmy currently lives in Los Angeles, just a short walk away from the Rainbow, the oldest rock ’n’ roll bar in Hollywood. Since 1987, Janiss Garza has been writing about very loud rock and alternative music. From 1989 to1996 she was senior editor at RIP, at the time the World’s premier hard music magazine. She has also written for Los Angeles Times, Entertainment Weekly, and New York Times, Los Angeles. ‘From heaving burning caravans into lakes at 1970s Finnish festivals to passing out in Stafford after three consecutive blowjobs, the Motörhead man proves a mean raconteur as he gabbles through his addled heavy metal career résumé’ Guardian ‘As a rock autobiography, White Line Fever is a keeper’ Big Issue ‘White Line Fever really is the ultimate rock & roll autobiography .

The original line-up is back with their angst-ridden blend of raw emotion and unforgettable down- tuned grooves. The group won over a huge horde of fans worldwide during the decade in which the band was active, and gained even more fans in their absence. Their reunion has opened the door to endless possibilities to come. In addition to the 18 blistering live tracks, recorded at the band’s two sold out reunion shows at Irving Plaza in New York on January 3rd and 4th 2003, are three bonus tracks featuring LOA band members’ side projects – Among Thieves (Alan Robert), Supermassiv (Sal Abruscato) and a Keith Caputo solo track. A DVD of the same name is to be released simultaneously with the double live CD, containing extra bonus material, including in-depth band interviews, interactive menu screens and never- before-seen video footage from the band’s personal tour archives.

  • Hellfest 2017 – Saturday
    Hellfest 2017 – Saturday After a dozen of fresh croissants with a addition of a cup of coffee, I started to plan my second day in hell, and I realized few things. Firstly, yesterday I decided I crossed the healthy limit of “seen” bands. Secondly, If I try to beat yesterday’s record, then the third day I can easily spend in emergency department. Thirdly, getting the overwhelming heat coming from above, I surely should cover my head. I promised myself that today won’t be only a battle for entry on the most viewed concerts, but also an escape from daily life. For good starters I planned to verify the good reputation of The Dead Daisies. Their members are a mix of musicians from bands like Motley Crue, Thin Lizzy, Whitesnake and even Billy Idol and Dio. Well, my a bit fatigued colleagues managed to get ready shortly before Phill Campbell and The Bastard Sons performance. Scene veteran Phill, with a company of youngsters played a sentimental but good, strong rock-and-roll concert. Campbell was a guitarist in Motorhead since 1984, until the death of Lemmy’s, so “using” his repertoire is a serious commercial move. The heritage of Motorhead will surely catch the attention of their long die-hard fans, but nonetheless it was an honest and true concert. Besides Campbell, his three sons are playing – Todd, Dane and Tyla. The vocalist of the band, Neil Starr, who was clearly under the jitters, still managed to convincingly play hits like “Killed By Death” and “Ace Of Spades”. There were also few surprises.

I Now Jay Wright is the caretaker of the very rich tradition that is Villanova basketball. On March 27, 2001 Wright was introduced as only the eighth coach, and fifth since 1936, in the 81-year history of Villanova men’s basketball. “We are delighted to welcome Jay and his family back to Villanova,” said director of athletics Vince Nicastro. “Jay has a real understanding of the val- ues and culture at Villanova, what the tradition is all about.” In Wright’s first season as head coach in 2001-02, the Wildcats were picked to finish sixth in the Big East Conference’s East Division yet reached the National Invitation Tournament quarterfinals. Among the Wildcats 19 wins were triumphs over UCLA, Syracuse (2), Notre Dame and Georgetown. In addition, Wright and his staff attracted a consensus top five recruiting class to the Main Line. This marks Wright’s second stint at the university. From 1987-1992 he served as an assistant to former head coach Rollie Massimino before moving on to the University of Nevada-Las Vegas for two more years. In 1994, Wright landed his first head coaching position. Hofstra hired him to breathe life into a program that had struggled through the late 1980s and early part of the ’90s.
