  • ANDERTON Music Festival Capitalism
    1 Music Festival Capitalism Chris Anderton Abstract: This chapter adds to a growing subfield of music festival studies by examining the business practices and cultures of the commercial outdoor sector, with a particular focus on rock, pop and dance music events. The events of this sector require substantial financial and other capital in order to be staged and achieve success, yet the market is highly volatile, with relatively few festivals managing to attain longevity. It is argued that these events must balance their commercial needs with the socio-cultural expectations of their audiences for hedonistic, carnivalesque experiences that draw on countercultural understanding of festival culture (the countercultural carnivalesque). This balancing act has come into increased focus as corporate promoters, brand sponsors and venture capitalists have sought to dominate the market in the neoliberal era of late capitalism. The chapter examines the riskiness and volatility of the sector before examining contemporary economic strategies for risk management and audience development, and critiques of these corporatizing and mainstreaming processes. Keywords: music festival; carnivalesque; counterculture; risk management; cool capitalism A popular music festival may be defined as a live event consisting of multiple musical performances, held over one or more days (Shuker, 2017, 131), though the connotations of 2 the word “festival” extend much further than this, as I will discuss below. For the purposes of this chapter, “popular music” is conceived as music that is produced by contemporary artists, has commercial appeal, and does not rely on public subsidies to exist, hence typically ranges from rock and pop through to rap and electronic dance music, but excludes most classical music and opera (Connolly and Krueger 2006, 667).

  • Vision Series 2018: “Where We're Going: Push Back the Darkness” Matthew 5:14-16 We Are on Week 2 of Our Vision Series
    Vision Series 2018: “Where We’re Going: Push Back the Darkness” Matthew 5:14-16 We are on week 2 of our Vision Series, and as you’ve already heard this morning from our Vision Team members and specifically from Molly Pitkin, we are going to spend this time looking deeply into our new mission statement which was revealed last week after a year of prayer, learning, and listening. Again, Colonial’s mission is “To be the light of Christ in a hurting culture so that the lost are found, the broken are made whole, the fatherless find hope, and our city is blessed.” As Molly mentioned, this mission statement was “discovered” by a team of people who spent many, many hours together in prayer, study, conversation, and discernment. Again, the Vision Team Members included Steve Aliber, our current Clerk of Session; Jim Cannon, our former Clerk of Session; Brian Mack, our Elder of Strategic Planning; Ken Kurtz…a current Elder at Wornall; Kevin Nunnally…a recent Elder at Wornall; Meda Green…Chair of Deacons at Quivira; Molly Pitkin…high school youth leader at Quivira; Ken Blume…Executive Director of Programs and Ministries; and me as the Lead Pastor. We benefitted greatly from our facilitator, Ted Vaughn, who guided us through a wonderful process of discovery. Now, before I jump into unpacking the Mission Statement, let me address some of your questions that I’ve been asked over the past week. First, I was asked why words like “making disciples” and “doing everything for the glory of God” were left out of our mission statement.

  • U-17 Goaltending Program Technical Curriculum
    U-17 Goaltending Program Technical Curriculum U-17 Goaltending Program Technical Curriculum INTRODUCTION: GOALTENDING SKATING DRILLS To be a good goaltender you must be an efficient skater. Your goaltender does not necessarily have to be the fastest skater on the team, but the best in terms of control and mobility. Pushes from post to post and ability to get quickly to plays laterally are essential for goalies to be able to perform at a high level. Goaltenders must learn to push with strength and stop hard when needed. So when doing T-push or shuffle drills I suggest everything is done in sequence. Example: A coach should be calling out for the goalie to PUSH----STOP----PUSH----STOP------ PUSH----STOP etc. giving one second in between pushes. This will give the goaltender time to recover and will keep him from developing bad habits by doing the drill too fast. The ability for a goaltender to change directions quickly is also an absolute must as today’s game is a lot about trying to create a situation to get a goaltender moving in the wrong direction. In order to do this, and be effective, skating drills are a natural part of goaltender development.
