  • 2008 Erik Axel Karlfeldt Memorial Open Round 6
    2008 Erik Axel Karlfeldt Memorial Open Round 6 1. One instance of this type of event which involved Matt Prater decided the 2005 Aloha Bowl between Nevada and UCF. In 2004, a game-deciding instance of this by Ryan Gaudet was nullified by a penalty, one week after Alexis Serna did it three times against Gaudet’s team. LSU won both those games, defeating Auburn and Oregon State. Perhaps more famously, a Jerome Pathon touchdown, scored after laterals from Donte Stallworth and Deuce McAllister, was made meaningless when John Carney did this, giving a 20-19 victory to the Jaguars over the Saints. FTP, name this rare football feat, which results in only six points being awarded for a touchdown. ANSWER: missed extra point (accept equivalents; do not accept “blocked extra points”) 2. A rapper of this name put out such tracks as “Murder Makes Mo Mail” on his 1996 album De Vallejo. The title of a recent book on American culture by R. Jay Magill, Jr. refers to this kind of chic bitterness. Better known is a song of this name, which was sandwiched between two songs by Oasis as a Billboard number one single. That song details the flight of “Mr. Play it Safe” and remarks that “life has a funny way of sneaking up on you.” It speaks of such events as a “Black fly in your chardonnay” and a “No smoking sign on your cigarette break,” which are erroneously said to exemplify the title concept. FTP, name this Alanis Morissette song that complains of occurrences such as “rain on your wedding day.” ANSWER: “Ironic” 3.

  • T Miss Shows of May
    Mike D’s Top Five Can’t Miss Shows of May 1. Sat, May 9: Power Of Love (Huey Lewis & The News Cover Band), Hippy Johnny (The Modern Lovers Cover Band), Pretendica (Pretenders / Elastica Cover Band); 8pm doors / 9pm show; All ages; $10 advance / $12 day of; The Met, 1005 Main St., Pawtucket. Boston’s Power of Love is bringing what Rhode Island has always needed: a Huey Lewis & The News Cover Band. Every time Huey comes to town, I want to go and pay homage to the music, but I don’t want to pay $50. And pay homage is exactly what Power Of Love does while playing Huey’s music. The band doesn’t try to be ironic or tongue in cheek; they do an ernest job of playing the original arrangements, but attacking with a fierce rock ‘n’ roll savagery. The five piece and full horn section from Boston are composed of many former and current members of Boston indie and punk bands such as Big D And The Kids Table, The Fatal Flaw, Razors In The Night, and more. They created a scene in Boston with other friends and musicians doing cover bands to acts like Billy Joel, Prince and Cheap Trick. In Boston, they started with a modest crowd and now play to sold out rooms. This is the first time they have come to the area and are bringing their friends Pretendica (Prentenders & Elastica Cover Band). And this show also marks the second appearance of Providence’s premier Modern Lovers Cover Band, Hippy Johnny.

  • Antimodernism and Genre from Country-Rock to Alt.Country, 1968-98
    Antimodernism and Genre from Country-Rock to Alt.Country, 1968-98 Jason Bianchi Kirby San Jose, California B.A. Sociology and Literature, University of California—Santa Cruz, 2002 M.A. American Culture Studies, Bowling Green State University, 2006 A dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Music University of Virginia August 2016 Abstract This dissertation is a cultural history exploring expressions of and responses to antimodernism within country-rock and “alternative country” music, drawing on reception history, intellectual history of underground and mainstream left-wing American political movements, interview discourse with artists, and close readings of songs. In this dissertation I argue that despite styling itself as a type of purer root or “folk” form of contemporary country music, in terms of its ideologies, studio production techniques, fan and critical discourse, and business practices, alt.country is a type of rock music. It embodies some of rock’s core beliefs, particularly rock’s critique of the more bureaucratic and “rationalized” dimensions of postindustrial capitalism, particularly as this relates to the everyday impact of new technologies. I argue that this anti-modernism, emerging here from the American political left, has been different in different eras, from the back-to-the-land movement of the late 1960s, to late- ‘80s/early-‘90s expressions of left populist punk’s longing for “folk” community. In this project I look beyond contemporary scholarly understandings of alt.country as mostly ironic, as ultimately I suggest that this music illustrates what Keir Keightley calls rock’s aesthetic of “seriousness,” more precisely than it does an understanding of country music ideology.

  • Indie Rock Subculture: Hamilton As Microcosm Indie Rock Subculture: Hamilton As Microcosm
    INDIE ROCK SUBCULTURE: HAMILTON AS MICROCOSM INDIE ROCK SUBCULTURE: HAMILTON AS MICROCOSM By KATHLEEN DAVIES, B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies In Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University © Copyright by Kathleen Davies, April 2006 MASTER OF ARTS (2006) McMaster University (Music Criticism) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Indie Rock Subculture: Hamilton as Microcosm AUTHOR: Kathleen Davies, B.A. (McMaster University) NUMBER OF PAGES: v, 123 11 ABSTRACT In recent years, interest in the indie rock subculture has exploded, both in the popular press and among popular music scholars and culture theorists. This is an ethnographic study of the indie rock scene in Hamilton, Ontario. Hamilton represents a microcosm of what is happening in other local indie scenes. The geographical, historical and cultural locality of Hamilton creates a sense of shared identity among individuals connected by the common interest in indie rock. This study focuses on how independent rock's network of social practices and economic institutions works to locate subjects within Hamilton's local network while connecting them to the larger framework of interlocal scenes. Aspects of the local and interlocal are explored through narratives of indie aesthetics, style, fashion, institutions, cultural practices, authenticity and investment. Cultural practices, including the production and consumption of indie rock are examined through the lens of Bourdieu' s concept of cultural capital, which exposes constructions and configurations of class, generation, ethnicity, and gender. 111 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Thank you to: Dr. Susan Fast for her encouragement to pursue my Masters degree. Dr. Christina Baade. As my supervisor of research, her guidance and encouragement helped ensure this project came to fruition.

  • Sebadoh (US), Legendarerna, Till Norden
    2008-02-06 17:08 CET Sebadoh (US), legendarerna, till Norden Sebadoh (US) 1 maj - Köpenhamn, Pumpehuset 2 maj - Stockholm, Debaser Medis/Svenska Musikklubben 3 maj - Malmö, KB Sebadoh är bandet med stamina utöver det vanliga, ett band som upplevt allt från kasettbandspelaren till boomblastern, cd-walkmanen och nu slutligen i-poden. Allt började way back i tiden, redan 1983, när Eric Gaffney gång på gång sprang på Lou Barlow på diverse hardcore-spelningar. Först tre år senare, 1986, bytte dom kassettband med varandras musik, och bestämde sig för att göra ett par gig ihop och kanske nån inspelning. Lou jobbade då för fullt med ett annat projekt, som så småningom skulle få namnet Dinosaur Jr. I januari 1987 gjorde Eric och Lou ett par spelningar på diverse universitet, Eric på sång och Lou på ukulele. Dom släppte också sin första kassett ihop under namnet Sebadoh, ett nonsensord som Lou ofta brukade mumla under deras inspelningar och rep. 1988 hade duon med ett par låtar på The Freed Man- kasetten, som så småningom gavs ut som album på bolaget Homestead Records. Jason Loewenstein, den tredje bandmedlemmen i Sebadohs orginalsettning, blev involverad efter att Eric som var värd på den lokala studentradiostationen kommenterat ljudkvaliteten på ett av demobanden som kommit in, en demokasett som råkade vara en inspelning med Jasons dåvarande band, Dissident Voices. Jason ringde upp och ville ta ett snack med Eric, det visade sig att dom kom bra överens och ett år senare kom det sig så att Jason, Eric och Lou hade sitt första rep ihop. 1991 släpptes singeln ”Gimme Indie Rock” där Jason också var med och spelade.
