  • La Salseta Del Poble Sec
    La Salseta del Poble Sec La Salseta del Poble Sec és una orquestra de ball creada per Miquel Àngel Tena, Salvador Escribà, Pep Vercher i cinc membres més l'any 1977, amb la finalitat d'animar una festa electoral. El grup té continuïtat, i amb el temps es consolida com una de les orquestres més sòlides i sol·licitades a les festes majors i altres celebracions d'arreu del país. Tot i que al començament el seu repertori és majoritàriament en castellà, hi inclouen temes en català des d'un primer moment: al disc Patrañas bélicas (1986), per exemple, hi trobem una versió d'una popular cançó italiana que repassa, estrofa rere estrofa, els instruments de l'orquestra ("Ei company!"), i un parell de temes originals: "Havaneres i Llavaneres" i "Oh, Gran Manitú". Amb el temps, la Salseta acaba enregistrant dos discos íntegrament en català: Treballo la nit (àlbum centrat en el rock) i Estic content que rutlli (1996). L'any 1998 publiquen un mini CD amb un himne dedicat als jugadors de botifarra, i, al mes de setembre del mateix any, actuen al festival santboià Altaveu, on presenten curioses versions ballables de cançons de Raimon ("Societat de consum"), Lluís Llach ("Damunt d'una terra"), Ovidi Montllor ("Homenatge a Teresa"), Maria del Mar Bonet ("Carta a un amic") i Jaume Sisa ("Senyor botiguer").[1] La Union. _____________________________________________________________________________ La Union.

  • West Adams Matters Olden Time Holiday Festivities: a Los Angeles Pioneer Recounts Christmas 1857 in the City of Angels by William H
    WAHA West Adams Heritage Association December 2010 Number 269 West Adams Matters Olden Time Holiday Festivities: A Los Angeles Pioneer Recounts Christmas 1857 in the City of Angels by William H. Workman (Read before the Pioneer Society, June 2, 1900) Having been requested by your Literary Committee to present you this evening some sketches of the holiday season in early Los Angeles, I have taken occasion to note down a few episodes as they recur to my memory. Los Angeles, when I arrived in 1854, was a small town of about 3,000 inhabitants, 2,500 of whom were natives of California, and the remainder were estranjeros, as Americans and foreigners were called. The people, especially the Americans and Europeans, always observed the various holidays by characteristic festivities and grand reunions. On New Year’s day almost all of the American element would turn out to make calls, for New Year’s calls were then the universal custom. No friend was forgotten on that day, and pleasant were the reunions, of acquaintances and friends, and the making of new friends. Nearly every family kept open house, and not infrequently entertained hundreds of callers on this occasion. The custom was so general that many of the prominent native Californians adopted it in their hospitable homes and thereby delightfully increased New Year’s calling lists of the Los Angeles beaux. But alas, the picture has its shadows, though my memory would linger only on its brightness. At each place of visiting were prepared refreshments of no mean proportions. These refreshments were of a liquid as well as a solid nature, and if one did not partake heartily, it was a breach of etiquette, which the fair hostess was loath to forgive or forget.

  • "Gay" and "Straight" Rodeo
    COWBOY UP: GENDER AND SEXUALITY IN CALGARY'S "GAY" AND "STRAIGHT" RODEO by JONATHAN HANVELT B.A., The University of British Columbia, 2001 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN SOCIOLOGY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Department of'Anthropology and Sociology) We accept this thesis as conforming tojhe required standard THE UNVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA October 2004 ©Jonathan Hanvelt, 2004 ABSTRACT This thesis addresses varying constructions and expressions of masculinities in two of the rodeo communities in Calgary, Alberta. For this work, I focus on the rodeo produced by the Alberta Rockies Gay Rodeo Association and the one produced by the Calgary Stampede. Using a combination of participant observation and textual analysis, I examine the ways in which the institutional bodies of the rodeos, as well as some of the community members, construct and communicate definite ideas about gender and sexuality. Using ConneU's concept of 'hegemonic masculinity,' I describe the Calgary Stampede as a place where the major tenets of that masculinity are represented, enacted, and thereby reinforced. This includes ideologically divided gender roles, a privileging of whiteness, and a compulsory heterosexuality. Conversely, I found the gay rodeo to be a site of great resistance to that hegemonic construct in terms of both gender and sexuality. At an institutional level, the gay rodeo produces a space that refuses to confine itself to the strict confines that are dictated in straight rodeo. This subversion is quite extensive and can even be seen as an arena in which gender is detached from the sexed subject.
