December 2012 December 2012 Crown of flowers - Photo: David Noble www.gofolkestone.org.uk Please help this magazine to continue Go Folkestone is a non-political organization, with the aim of promoting all that is good in the town, encouraging and supporting realistic initiatives, discussing problems and seeking to help people work together for the best future of our community. The quarterly magazine plays a major part in this. It is run entirely by volunteers, with neither the writers the editors, the photographers being paid anything but the magazine is expensive to print and we therefore rely entirely on membership fees, donations - both personal and community - and advertising to offset these costs. However it is a struggle to cover printing expenses entirely in this way. In addition we like the magazine to have content of good quality and for it not to be swamped by adverts. We are asking therefore for as many people as possible to become members of Go Folkestone and thus a subscriber to the magazine, of which you will receive a copy in the post. You can do this by going to www.gofolkestone.org.uk - click on subscriber at the top left of the home page and fill in the form - or by writing to or e-mailing Ann Berry, whose contact details are at the bottom of the opposite page. Obviously we would also be very pleased to receive donations of any amount. Please contact Ann Berry to arrange this. In addition to those that are mailed out to subscribers, copies are left at libraries, cafes, restaurants and shops throughout the town. Some of each issue are also posted though letter boxes – a different area each time. You can also see an electronic version of the current magazine and all previous issues by clicking on the “Magazine” at the top of the website. We always welcome articles but these should be about Folkestone and generally of a positive nature, as the magazine is intended let readers know what is going on and show Folkestone as the marvellous place it is. However we do accept articles dealing with contentious issues in the town, provided that any criticism is constructive and offers solutions. Articles can be anything from 200 to 1000 words and may include illustrations. We cannot accept every article and reserve the right to edit those submitted, though if we substantially shorten your article, we will return it to you to get your permission to publish. Photographic Competition We are always looking for photographs for the front cover of the magazine. Please look at previous cover of magazines on the website www.gofolkestone.org.uk and click on magazine for example of what we are looking for. In keeping with the magazine’s philosophy the photographs should portray a positive view of Folkestone. The winning entry will be used on the front cover of a future issue of the magazine, with the photographer’s name beneath. Only electronic copies of photographs can be accepted but these can be taken with any type of camera, including a mobile phone. They should however be at least 1 MB.

So last year with a group of colleagues of mine, I came down to look at the Triennial and I really liked the artworks. I especially admired Hew Locke’s boats in the church, Smadar Dreyfus’s audio-visual installation, recorded in Israeli classrooms and the Kosovo Boutique in the Old High Street by Erzen Shkololli. I also appreciated the fact that, while exploring the artwork of the Triennial, I was exploring Folkestone. I fell in love with the place.

  • Status Quo – 03
    STATUS QUO – 03. Juni 2019 – Berlin, Tempodrom – Support: JIMMY GEE – Text und Fotos: Holger Ott Nach einem Abstecher in akustische Gefilde vor zwei Jahren sind STATUS QUO nun doch endlich wieder bei dem, was die Fans an ihnen so lieben, dem guten alten geraden Rock. Selbstverständlich extrem gitarrenlastig und natürlich voll verstärkt. Sie sind 'Back' und kündigen das lange im Voraus auf ihren schwarzweißen Plakaten an. Der Tourauftakt findet ausgerechnet in Berlin statt, dem Ort, in dem das akustische Konzert ausfallen musste. Sänger, Gitarrist, Bandgründer und letztes verbliebenes Originalmitglied FRANCIS ROSSI merkt man, trotz über fünfzigjähriger Bühnenerfahrung die Nervosität an. Er hat mehrere Texthänger und schwafelt in den Songpausen oft unverständliches 'Genuschel' ins Mikrofon. Er wird sich sicherlich im Verlauf der Tournee wieder fangen und zu gewohnter Souveränität zurückfinden, denn er macht für sein Alter doch einen körperlich sehr fitten Eindruck. Ebenso fit und garantiert nicht minder nervös und aufgeregt ist der Protagonist des Vorprogramms. JIMMY GEE aus ehemals Berlin-Spandau bestreitet, lediglich mit einer akustischen Gitarre bewaffnet, den Support. Dazu gehört schon einiges an Mut und Selbstvertrauen. Eine halbe Stunde wird ihm gewährt und in dieser Zeit möchte er es erreichen, das Publikum von sich zu überzeugen, was ihm bereits nach den ersten drei Songs gelingt. Wer ist dieser JIMMY GEE, fragen sich sicher viele Besucher im Tempodrom. Vorabinformation gibt es leider so gut wie keine, aber wie der Zufall so spielt, ist meinem Kollegen MIKE und mir JIMMY bereits seit über einem Jahrzehnt bestens bekannt und wir haben ihn in der Vergangenheit oft in seinem Studio besucht. Umso größer unsere Freude, ihn auf der Bühne im Tempodrom zu sehen.

  • 2017 CATALOGUE for Over Forty Years Omnibus Press Has Been Publishing the Stories That Matter from the Music World
    2017 CATALOGUE For over forty years Omnibus Press has been publishing the stories that matter from the music world. Omnibus Press is the World’s/Europe’s largest specialist publisher devoted to music writing, with around thirty new titles a year, with a backlist of over two hundred and seventy titles currently in print and many more as digital downloads. Omnibus Press covers pop, rock, classical, metal, country, psyche, prog, electronic, dance, rap, jazz and many more genres, in a variety of formats. With books that tell stories through graphic art and photography, memoirs and biographies, Omnibus has constantly evolved its list to challenge what a music book can be and this year we are releasing our first talking books. Among Omnibus Press’ earliest acquisitions was Rock Family Trees, by acclaimed music archivist Pete Frame, three editions of which remain in print to this day and have been the basis of two BBC TV series. Over the following decades Omnibus published many best-selling, definitive biographies on some of rock’s greatest superstars. These include Morrissey & Marr: The Severed Alliance by Johnny Rogan, Dear Boy: The Life Of Keith Moon by Tony Fletcher, Uptight: The Velvet Underground Story by Victor Bockris, Catch A Fire: The Life of Bob Marley by Timothy White, Stevie Nicks - Visions, Dreams & Rumours by Zoë Howe, Without Frontiers The Life And Music Of Peter Gabriel by Daryl Easlea and Under The Ivy: The Life & Music of Kate Bush and George Harrison: Behind The Locked Door, both by Graeme Thomson, all of which are regularly cited by magazines and critics as being amongst the finest rock biographies ever published.

  • DIRECCIÓN DE COMUNICACIÓN SOCIAL Nezahualcóyotl, México, A
    DIRECCIÓN DE COMUNICACIÓN SOCIAL Nezahualcóyotl, México, a 27 de abril de 2013 CS-0104 MÁS DE 120 MIL PERSONAS DISFRUTAN DE HISTÓRICO CONCIERTO DE LA LEGENDARIA BANDA STATUS QUO EN NEZAHUALCÓYOTL Con la presentación de la legendaria Banda de rock inglesa Status Quo, la Ciudad Deportiva del Bordo de Xochiaca vibró con las voces, el baile y la euforia de más de 120 mil personas, en su mayoría jóvenes, devotas del rock, que con armonía y orden disfrutaron del repertorio ofrecido por sus ídolos, en este magno e histórico concierto, del cual fueron partícipes en los festejos del Cincuentenario de la Creación del Municipio de Nezahualcóyotl. El alcalde Juan Zepeda Hernández, que personalmente supervisó el operativo para realizar este concierto, manifestó que el propósito del evento se logró al cien por ciento, primero que de manera gratuita se agasajara a la población del municipio con esta agrupación de calidad mundial y que forma parte de la celebración “Es un orgullo ser de Neza”, y segundo, pero no menos importante, que los asistentes se comportaron de manera ejemplar, pues fueron a disfrutar del magno espectáculo. Indicó que de acuerdo con informes de la Dirección de Seguridad Pública municipal, se concluyó con saldo blanco, lo que pone de manifiesto que Neza está listo para recibir y disfrutar de eventos de gran nivel, y reiteró que por ello no se cansa de decir que “Es un orgullo ser de Neza”. Recordó que hace 10 años Status Quo vino por primera vez a Nezahualcóyotl, y que al igual que el municipio, la banda cumple 50 años de carrera, por lo que hubo una especie de hermandad este sentido, donde entonces la celebración fue compartida para disfrute de la población de la localidad.

  • Status Quo Keep It Real
    Downloaded from simongarfield.com © Simon Garfield 2005 Status Quo Keep It Real Two men, three chords and 30 years of unchanged melody. Night & Day (Mail on Sunday), July 1997 ‘They take a vein from your leg, and chop it up four times.’ Rick Parfitt, the big-haired, blond singer-guitarist with Status Quo for the past 30 years, is reliving his quadruple heart-bypass operation of a few weeks ago. It was a rock star thing, he says, brought about by women, divorcing women, smoking, alcohol, drugs and almost three decades of climbing on stage to ask people if they would, or would not, like to ride in a paper plane. He’d come back from a tour of Japan and Australia, and he was looking really good. He was tanned. He felt great, at 48. He got a pain in his right arm, but was always one of those people who believed that if you ignore something long enough, eventually it will go away. So he went on tour with the band again, this time to Dubai. When he returned, the pain reappeared. ‘I was making some tea at home, and I was walking up the stairs,’ he says, ‘and this time the pain went across my chest and down my other arm, and it intensified and dropped me to my knees. At this point I can’t move or breathe and I think I’m dying.’ When it eased, he called his doctor in Harley Street, and went to see him at three the following afternoon, and by nine he was under the knife.

  • Swinging Blue Jeans
    1 Chairman’s voice of appreciation Here we go again! As the years go by we are getting bigger and better without losing the friendly family atmosphere. Over the years we have raised thousands of pounds for various charities. This year we are concentrating on helping local homes that look after patients suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease and other types of dementia. We will also be donating additional money to Manton Village Hall to help towards the re-furbishment. It is our intention to concentrate on local charities where the money raised can make a difference to the local community. This year we are welcoming back the first professional act to perform at MantonFest, The Swinging Blue Jeans. They give me a chance to wander down memory lane and back to my wild youth! We are so fortunate to have Fred and Emma Goltz living in Manton Grange. They not only allow us use of the water meadow but, once again, are our main sponsor thus allowing us to develop this music festival, giving everyone a fantastic day out! Our dedicated volunteers and supporters have come up trumps again. The committee MantonFest Chairman - Roger Grant - Stuart Whant, Anne Morgan, Linda Yeardley and Becky Banning with the help of Denise Grant have made sure that all is running smoothly. Without them I could not organise this event. I would also like to give a big thanks to marlborough.news for all their support particularly Neil Goodwin who has put this programme together and Marina Rae who has tirelessly encouraged the advertisers to present their advertisements to you in this programme.

  • Wenn Status Quo Im N
    13.11.2013 STATUS QUO 2013 Veranstaltungsort Westfalenhalle Beginn 20:00 Uhr Ende 23:00 Uhr Veranstalter MLG GmbH (fs) Wenn Status Quo im November 2013 für elf Konzerte in Deutschland gastieren, verspricht das Tourmotto geballte Action: „Bula Quo!“ lautet jener Slogan, unter dem die Briten nicht nur live auftreten werden, sondern auch fulminant auf der Kinoleinwand überzeugen. In Stuart St. Pauls rasanter Komödie gleichen Namens machen die Sänger/Gitarristen Francis Rossi und Rick Parfitt an der Seite etablierter Schauspieler wie Jon Lovitz („Loaded Weapon I“, „High School High“), Craig Fairbrass („Cliffhanger“) und Laura Holly Aikman eine Insel im Südpazifik unsicher. Mit dem Titel „Bula Quo!“ (auf Fidschi: „Hallo Quo!“) schlagen die Boogie-Rocker zudem eine Brücke in die ruhmreiche Vergangenheit. Dank der auf ihrem sechsten Studioalbum „Hello“ enthaltenen Hit-Single „Caroline“ (#5 der UK-Charts) gelang ihnen 1973 in Großbritannien der Durchbruch. Im Vorfeld des 90-minütigen Spielfilms, für dessen Soundtrack das Quintett sechs frische Songs und ebenso viele neueingespielte Klassiker bereithält, feierten die Engländer ihr 50-jähriges Bestehen bereits mit einer weiteren Veröffentlichung: der im Herbst 2012 auf DVD sowie Blu-ray erschienenen Dokumentation „Hello Quo“. Diese erzählt auf mitreißende Weise vom Weg der Band auf den Rockolymp und lässt dabei in zahlreichen Interviews neben aktuellen sowie ehemaligen Gruppenmitgliedern auch Musikerkollegen wie Brian May oder Jeff Lynne zu Wort kommen. Diese Vielzahl an Veröffentlichungen unterstreicht, worauf die Mittelbayerische Zeitung bereits angesichts eines Live-Auftrittes im Herbst 2012 anspielte: „Status Quo sind immer am Puls des Rock!“ In ihrer seit Jahren bewährten Besetzung, der neben Rossi/Parfitt Bassist John 'Rhino' Edwards, Schlagzeuger Matt Letley und Keyboarder Andy Bown angehören, kommt die mit mehr als 120 Millionen verkauften Alben weltweit erfolgreiche Formation 2013 nach Deutschland.

  • KONZERT Die Wirkungskraft Der Drei Akkorde
    KONZERT Die Wirkungskraft der drei Akkorde Text: Aleksandra Majzlic; Fotos: Stefan Ziemba Bei ihrer letzten elektrisch verstärkten Live-Tour 2016 rasen die Rebellen von Status Quo auf ihrem mit Hits gepflasterten Parcours durch die Münchner Olympiahalle. Für Herzrasen sorgt die Band bei ihren Fans. Und Gründungsmitglied Francis Rossi kümmert sich um seine Kinder auf der Bühne. www.m-lifestyle.de „Bye bye bye bye“ – wie in einer Endlosschleife singen die Fans lautstark diese Worte. Gewaltig hebt der Chor an, als die Giganten von Status Quo ihr „Bye Bye Johnny“ liefern. Francis schleudert nach der Zugaberunde noch einen Handkuss ins Publikum und einer der Musiker ruft „Tschüss“ ins Mikro – zum Ende eines fantastischen und die Anhänger zu stehenden Ovationen animierenden Konzertes. Den Energielevel halten die Mannen während der fast zweistündigen Show konstant am obersten Limit, sausen unter anderem von „The Wanderer“, „What You're Proposing“, „Again And Again“, „In The Army Now“ bis zu „Whatever You Want“. www.m-lifestyle.de Nach der „The Last Night Of The Electrics Tour 2016“ wird es keine weiteren Electric-Tours der genialen Rocker mehr geben. Bei der finalen Europa-Tournee ist Rick Parfitt nicht mit von der Partie. Das Gründungsmitglied erlitt im Juni 2016 einen Herzinfarkt. Statt ihm gesellt sich der irische Gitarrist Richie Malone auf der Bühne zu Francis Rossi, Andy Bown, John „Rhino“ Edwards und Leon Cave. „Hello!“, ruft Francis in die Menge, legt die Hand an sein Ohr, formt sie zu einem Trichter, wartet auf das Echo. Zu lasch ist das Ergebnis auf der linken Seite. Er probiert's rechts noch einmal.
