The Steve Popovich Scholarship Fund The Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C®) Foundation and Creative Arts Center of Excellence invite you to apply for the Steve Popovich Scholarship Fund Steve Popovich, the late founder of Cleveland International Records, played a monstrous role in the careers of artists ranging from Meat Loaf to Michael Jackson. In memory of Popovich’s lifetime of work and encouragement of young artists, the Steve Popovich Foundation created this scholarship to encourage young people to find their way in the music and recording arts industries. Steve Popovich has been described as having “coal dust in his veins and kielbasa in his soul” for his blue collar integrity in discovering and promoting artists from polka legend Frank Yankovic to Bruce Springsteen, Johnny Cash and Barbra Streisand. At age 26, he started his career at CBS Records as the youngest-ever head of promotions. His storied career at multiple recording companies impacted an enormous array of artists from almost every genre of music, winning Grammys and virtually every conceivable award in the business. Over the course of his career, Popovich encouraged aspiring singer/songwriters, musicians and producers to follow their dreams. His driving motto was “Be stubbornly passionate about your beliefs.” This scholarship will continue his legacy by helping to support the music-makers of tomorrow. APPLICATION STEPS • Complete the Tri-C Scholarship Application form at tri-c.edu/scholarships. • Prepare a 750-word essay describing your musical background and music education goals and explaining how the scholarship would help you achieve those goals.

KENT - AKRON – CANTON – CUYAHOGA FALLS – MASSILLON VENUES GROUPS ARTISTS SPECIAL INDIVIDUALS / - – – / FROM THE YEARS / 1946, 1956, 1961, 1966, 1971, 1977, 1981, 1986, 1991, 1996, 2001, 2006, 2011, 2016. Designed to be a five-year project; in this edition, only items found in years ending in 1 or 6 are included. This 65,000-word project now contains over 1,300 specific entries! EDITOR’S NOTE: Listed below are venues, performers, media, events, and specialty items including automobiles (when possible), highlighting Akron, Kent, Canton, Cuyahoga Falls, & Massillon related items currently found in Planner Project 2016! The years ending with the years 1 and 6 have become ‘magical,’ allowing for a most unique connection between past and present, such as following the Rubber City Rebels as King Cobra in 1976 at the B.B.C.; Devo playing at the Crypt with Pere Ubu that December; and then the Rebels reuniting to play in 2001. And, following the Numbers band from 1971 at the Kove, to the Beachland tribute in 2016! Or Joe Walsh from playing with the Measles in 1966, to rocking Blossom 50 years later with Bad Company. And there is the ability to follow so many others such as Tracey Thomas, Bob Ethington, Chris Butler, and Harvey Gold. [Please note this is a ROUGH final draft which may be altered as new material is added as a final “Layer.” Please note too, that all text has to fit within existing text blocks, and may not flow perfectly!] This format also allows me to honor the memory of several local artists including Robt.
