  • “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson
    The Interplay of Authority, Masculinity, and Signification in the “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music and Culture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2014, Holly Johnson ii Abstract This thesis will deconstruct the "grunge killed '80s metal” narrative, to reveal the idealization by certain critics and musicians of that which is deemed to be authentic, honest, and natural subculture. The central theme is an analysis of the conflicting masculinities of glam metal and grunge music, and how these gender roles are developed and reproduced. I will also demonstrate how, although the idealized authentic subculture is positioned in opposition to the mainstream, it does not in actuality exist outside of the system of commercialism. The problematic nature of this idealization will be examined with regard to the layers of complexity involved in popular rock music genre evolution, involving the inevitable progression from a subculture to the mainstream that occurred with both glam metal and grunge. I will illustrate the ways in which the process of signification functions within rock music to construct masculinities and within subcultures to negotiate authenticity. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank firstly my academic advisor Dr. William Echard for his continued patience with me during the thesis writing process and for his invaluable guidance. I also would like to send a big thank you to Dr. James Deaville, the head of Music and Culture program, who has given me much assistance along the way.

    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.

  • COMUNICATO STAMPA NR. 07 a Gordevio Una Tre Giorninel Segno
    Avegno, 25 luglio 2021 COMUNICATO STAMPA NR. 07 Le foto delle serate si trovano al seguente link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/zwqce6h9fgktaxf/AACXZsvVoCAenY4jUB3C27SWa?dl=0 A Gordevio una tre giorni nel segno del Flower Power e dei mitici anni ’70. Per quanto riguarda la qualità delle proposte musicali il Vallemaggia Magic Blues ha mantenuto tutte le promesse della vigilia, anzi con qualcosina in più. Ora spazio alla tre giorni di Gordevio, quasi tutta nel segno del Flower Power e dei mitici anni ’70: “50 years - From Flower Power to Hard Rock”. Sul campetto aleggeranno gli spiriti di Jimi Hendrix, John Lennon e dei Thin Lizzy. La prima serata, “Let's celebrate John Lennon and Jimi Hendrix“ prevede un doveroso omaggio a John Lennon (a 41 anni dalla morte, a Jimi Hendrix (che ci ha lasciati 51 anni fa). Gli Instant Karma sono la prima John Lennon Tribute Band in Svizzera, nata a Lugano e attiva da tempo non solo in Ticino, ma anche nel resto della Svizzera e nella vicina penisola. Spesso si pensa a John Lennon come leader dei Beatles o come autore di grandi pezzi ormai ritenuti dei classici, come Imagine, Woman o Jealous Guy. L’intendo della band è invece quello di riproporre ad un vasto pubblico il repertorio di un artista poliedrico, che spazia attraverso vari generi e decenni. Così gli Instant Karma partono dai brani del Lennon solista, passando attraverso pezzi degli ultimi Beatles, energici e graffianti come Come together, per poi rendere omaggio al Rock’n’Roll degli anni 50, una delle grandi passioni di Lennon.

    Administration of Barack Obama, 2012 Remarks Honoring the 2012 NCAA Women's Basketball Champion Baylor University Lady Bears July 18, 2012 The President. Thank you. Everybody, please have a seat. Welcome to the White House, everybody. And congratulations to the Baylor Lady Bears on their undefeated season and second national championship. There are some proud Members of Congress who are here today. We've got a bunch of proud Texans in the house. I want to thank all the outstanding young women who are behind me and the coach for making my bracket look good, at least on the women's side. [Laughter] I picked Baylor over Notre Dame, but I have to say, I wasn't the only one. It wasn't that hard. [Laughter] Because if there's one thing to describe this team, it was "dominant." Last season, the Lady Bears scored more points than any team in women's college basketball history. They became the first team ever—men's or women's—to win 40 games in a season. Now, this is not to say that success came easily. After a tough loss to Texas A&M in the Elite Eight last year, the Lady Bears decided they weren't going to go through that again. So they buckled down, they spent all summer in the gym, and they have not lost since: not to the Aggies and not to anybody else. [Laughter] So obviously, a lot of credit goes to Coach Kim Mulkey. This is Coach's fifth national championship—she just—she likes to win if you haven't noticed.
