Love & Special Sauce July 3 Charter One Pavilion Chicago the fall announcements are still few and far 311 w/Cypress HIll July 5 Riverbend Music Center Cincinnati between, it seems like a good time to clean Road Notez 311 w/Cypress Hill, G. Love & Special Sauce ($20-$59.50) July 7 DTE Energy Music Theatre Clarkston, MI out the ol’ Road Notez inbox. Taking on a 3 Doors Down July 23 PNC Pavilion Cincinnati challenge I threw out a few weeks ago to CHRIS HUPE 1964 The Tribute June 22 Performing Arts Center at Foster Park Kokomo send me your concert pet peeves, reader The Airborne Toxic Event June 12 House of Blues Cleveland Josh Pairan gave some insight into being on the other side of the merch table. He writes The Airborne Toxic Event June 16 Newport Music Hall Columbus, OH Alabama Shakes w/Jonny Fritz, Corndawg, Houndmouth June 18 Lifestyle Communities Pavilion Columbus, OH that he works part-time selling merch for country band Highway 101 and that a lot of Alice Cooper w/Marilyn Manson June 13 Jacobs Pavilion at Nautica Cleveland times people will come up to him wanting to buy the CD “that has that song they do” on it Alice Cooper ($39.50-$69.50) July 2 Morris Performing Arts Center South Bend but “have no clue of the title or how the song goes and can’t tell me the lyrics.” They also Alice Cooper ($29.50-$62.50) July 10 Embassy Theatre Fort Wayne sometimes stop by and want a CD recording of the show they just attended, and he cannot All Good Music Festival feat. Furthur with Phil Lesh & Bob Weir, Pretty Lights, Primus, explain to them that the only way to get the songs they heard is to buy the studio record- Yonder Mountain String Band, John Butler Trio, Beats Antique, STS9, Grace Potter & the ings available on the CDs he has for sale. The latter idea is being done at some shows, but Nocturnals, Lettuce, The Werks, Papadosio, Left Over Salmon, Toubab Krewe & more July 18-21 Legend Valley Thornville, OH it is still a newer technology and hasn’t been embraced yet by many artists. The former Alt-J June 11 House of Blues Cleveland Amadou and Mariam June 29 Park West Chicago is inexcusable, however, when you’re talking about a band that’s been around as long as America ($25-$35) July 20 Foellinger Theatre Fort Wayne Highway 101. While it is understandable that every audience member may not know all Anberlin July 8 Subterranean Chicago the songs a band does, it should go without saying that you should at least know the hits. Anberlin July 10 Deluxe at Old National Centre Indianapolis All we’re asking is that you do a little research before the show. Take 10 minutes out of Anberlin July 11 Taft Theatre Cincinnati your day and check the band out. The internet has made this an easy thing to do. Aretha Franklin ($10-$75) June 22 DTE Energy Music Theatre Clarkston, MI Art of Shock ($34) July 3 Klipsch Music Center Noblesville While we’re on the subject of merch, it might be wise to mention how important merch Atlas Genius w/The Postelles ($12-$15) June 6 Deluxe at Old National Centre Indianapolis sales are to bands. With many bands trying to go it alone or trying to repay large loans Atlas Genius June 24 St. Andrews Hall Detroit from record labels, if they have one, merch sales are often the only way the bands can B-52’s June 26 PNC Pavilion Cincinnati get from one show to another. The number of bands and artists that make money at being B-52’s w/The Go-Go’s ($23-$67) June 29 Hoosier Park Racing & Casino Anderson, IN “rock stars” are few, contrary to popular thought. Most bands live day to day in hopes that Backstreet Boys ($15-$150) Aug. 2 Charter One Pavilion Chicago all the touring and sacrifice will pay off when someone hears a song or two they like. They Baroness June 7 St. Andrews Hall Detroit Baroness June 8 The Pyramid Scheme Grand Rapids need you to buy that CD or that shirt they have on display so they can put gas in their van Baroness June 11 Deluxe at Old National Centre Indianapolis and Ramen noodles in their bellies and make it to the next town. Next time you go to a Baroness June 12 Taft Theatre Cincinnati show, support the bands you’re going to see – or the ones you just happen to see, and like, Barenaked Ladies w/Ben Folds Five, Guster July 5 Lifestyle Communities Pavilion Columbus, OH while waiting to see the headliner.

  • In the Aftermath of the Emanuel Nine in the September
    For Immediate Release: September 21, 2015 Press Contacts: Natalie Raabe, (212) 286-6591 Molly Erman, (212) 286-7936 Adrea Piazza, (212) 286-4255 In the Aftermath of the Emanuel Nine In the September 28, 2015, issue of The New Yorker, in “Blood at the Root” (p. 26), David Remnick travels to Charleston, South Caro- lina, and explores the city’s resistance and resilience in the aftermath of the June murders of nine people at Emanuel A.M.E. Church. Like many people in Charleston, Pastor Norvel Goff, Sr., at Emanuel, says that members of the community remain in shock and immense pain “(‘post-traumatic-stress syndrome’ was the term they often used), but they were alive, and feeling joy in their pews—and at their jobs, and at their Bible classes and dinner tables and Sunday strolls—because of the depth of their spiritual lives,” Remnick writes. “This was the way of a church that had been around since the days when enslaved black men and women, in a quest for safety, community, dignity, co- hesion, empowerment, ritual, and peace, broke from white churches and built ‘invisible’ institutions, sometimes called ‘hush harbors.’ ” The black church, even as it has changed, aged, and, in some places, lost ground to mega-churches, Remnick writes, remains a powerful insti- tution of black life, and of black political influence. The families of the Emanuel Nine shocked the nation with their message of forgive- ness at the killer Dylann Roof ’s hearing the day after the murders. That forgiveness is hard to understand for anyone “who hasn’t had to cope with that kind of powerlessness,” James H.

  • STICK MEN - Tony Levin and Pat MasteloO, the Powerhouse Bass and Drums of the Group King Crimson for a Few Decades, Bring That TradiOn to All Their Playing
    STICK MEN - Tony Levin and Pat Masteloo, the powerhouse bass and drums of the group King Crimson for a few decades, bring that tradion to all their playing. Levin plays the Chapman Sck, from which the band takes it’s name. Having bass and guitar strings, the Chapman Sck funcons at mes like two instruments. Markus Reuter plays his selfdesigned touch style guitar – again covering much more ground than a guitar or a bass. And Masteloo’s drumming encompasses not just the acousc kit, but a unique electronic setup too, allowing him to add loops, samples, percussion and more. TONY LEVIN - Born in Boston, Tony Levin started out in classical music, playing bass in the Rochester Philharmonic. Then moving into jazz and rock, he has had a notable career, recording and touring with John Lennon, Pink Floyd, Yes, Alice Cooper, Gary Burton, Buddy Rich and many more. He has also released 5 solo CDs and three books. In addion to touring with Sck Men, since more than 30 years is currently a member of King Crimson and Peter Gabriel Band, and jazz bands Levin Brothers and L’Image. His popular website, tonylevin.com, featured one of the web’s first blogs, and has over 4 million visits. PAT MASTELOTTO - Very rarely does a drummer go on to forge the most successful career on the demise of their former hit band. Phil Collins and Dave Grohl have managed it, so too has Pat Masteloo, a self taught drummer from Northern California, who has also been involved with pushing the envelope of electronic drumming.

  • The Price of Hot Dog Day Alfred Community Questions Whether HDD Is Worth It Anymore
    @aufiatllux thefiat.wordpress.com Alfred, New York FiatThe Official Newspaper of Alfred UniversityLux | Thursday April 24, 2014 Volume 107, Issue 4 The Price of Hot Dog Day Alfred community questions whether HDD is worth it anymore Dylan Sammut Editor-In-Chief Although Hot Dog Day proves to be the spring highlight for the Alfred community year after year, many have begun to wonder if the festival is worth it. “It is a huge burden on staff and personnel,” John Dougherty, the Director of Public Safety, said. “Volunteer firefighters and medical services are on call 24/7 throughout the weekend, and that’s not exactly cheap.” Hot Dog Day was created as a large community fundraiser, with events and a fair aimed at drawing in families. In fact, AU even hosts Family Weekend at the same time. However, what it has become is something entirely different. Any Alfred community member can comment on the overwhelming amount of drinking and partying that occurs throughout the weekend. “It’s an annual weekend out of control,” a Village resident said, according to the minutes from a Village Board Meeting on May 13, 2013. “The Village needs to consider its responsibility and potential liability if a death were to occur during the event.” To ensure the safety of the Alfred community, roughly 30 people volunteered an average of 10 hours each of active service during the weekend, including six PHOTO PROVIDED | Katie Seery ambulance standbys, 17 ambulance calls Alfred students and community members compete in Alfred’s annual hotdog eating (fewer than 2012), and four fire calls in contest 2013, according to the “Village Broadside: Hot Dog Day Edition,” a press release from There were 38 arrests last year, but oddly enough, that HDD draws in many visitor who put the safety weekend, residence life and the Wellness the Village of Alfred.

  • JD Reynolds Is an Artist in the Truest Sense of the Word
    JD Reynolds is an artist in the truest sense of the word. A true singer, a real songwriter, a neoteric producer, an incredible dancer and striking performer, all wrapped up in a stunning package that could grace the cover of any magazine in the world, and yet, her down to earth country girl charm is what makes this extraordinary artist so real. JD Reynolds was born an artist. “It’s in my blood. Music, melody, lyrics and dance flow through my veins, gifts straight from God for which I am thankful”. JD’s Mother had Elvis, Michael Jackson, Prince, Roy Orbison, Dolly Parton and Whitney Houston on daily replay in the house, so JD grew up listening to the King of Rock ‘n Roll, The Prince of Pop, The PRINCE of Everything, The Caruso of Rock, The Queen of Country Music and The Queen of the Night. JD’s sound is fresh originality for country music. “My entire album came to me like a bolt of lightning, the JD sound, my sound, respecting country music routes yet having my own next level twist”. As an up and coming producer, JD teamed up with seasoned producer Braddon Williams to co-produce what country music insiders have nicknamed “The Jagged Little Pill of country". Braddon has achieved more than thirty top-ten hits, amassed over thirty times platinum in record sales, and his work has received both Grammy and ARIA award nominations, credits include Beyoncé, Snoop Dogg, P Diddy, The Script, Kelly Clarkson, and his latest favourite, JD Reynolds. Braddon knew he was helping to create a unique country album for an incredible talent.

Elliott Photography Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Alice Cooper, considered “The Godfather of Shock Rock,” is world famous for his many hits, including “School’s Out” and “No More Mr. Nice Guy.” The 71-year-old singer still tours for almost 200 days annually, with performances that are part vaudeville, part Broadway and 100 percent musical thunder. In keeping with his macabre onstage persona, he slides into a guillotine for the highlight of the concert. While a shocking maneuver, it’s done with a sly wink at the audience not to take it too seriously. Offstage, Cooper is a reflective family man with many interests, including golf, classic cars and his foundation, Solid Rock, that helps teens in his hometown of Phoenix, Arizona, to explore and develop their artistic talents. AAA World: How did you first get interested in cars? Alice Cooper: I’m originally from Detroit [Michigan], so it’s in my DNA. I’d always sit in art class designing cars. In my teens, I was at that perfect age, with all the Beach Boys songs about cars and driving. A car was your declaration of independence that also reflected who you were. You had to have something that was flashy and cool. AAAW: What was your first car? Cooper: It was a 1966 Ford Fairlane GT 390, yellow with a black stripe.
