Certain portions of the legislation will affect cable rates, local phone service, high definition television, and sexually explic- it materials on the Internet. But changes in radio ownership rules are the aspects of the bill that will most directly affect the American public, and our industry. Those provisions include: 1. No limit on how many radio stations a group can own across the country. 2. In the largest markets (with 45 or more signals) one owner can have up to 8 radio sta- tions, with no more than five on one band (FM or AM). 3. Markets with 30 to 44 signals: one entity can own up to seven signals, with no more than four on one band. 4. Markets with 15-29 signals: six stations is the ceiling with no more than four on one band. 5. In the smallest markets (with less than 14 signals) one owner can have no more than five stations or no more than 50% of the stations in his community, and no more than three on one band. That's the new reality in theory. This week the overview..."If you look at the way Jacor's new com- always -aggressive Jacor Broadcasting Corporation bo lays out, each station has its own little 5 year, 6 year was the first major group to make the new rules niche.

FEIJÓ PROFESSOR DOUTOR MIGUEL TAMEN Doutoramento em Estudos de Literatura e de Cultura Teoria da Literatura 2014 Acknowledgments The work for this thesis was done under a fellowship granted by the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT): the time granted to think is priceless, and I am indeed thankful for being allowed to benefit from it. During this period I have also benefited from the resources put at my disposal by my host institution, the Nova Institute of Philosophy (IFILNOVA). Professor António Feijó has been teaching me since my first year of undergraduate studies and Professor Miguel Tamen since I started graduate studies: I am still to this day amazed at the luck I have for being given the opportunity to work with both of them, and my gratitude for their efforts and enthusiasm in crafting this thesis is immeasurable. As a student of the Program in Literary Theory I must extend my thanks to Professor João Figueiredo, who is an integral part of the Program and with whom I have learnt many valuable things about art. When writing a thesis, a friend who enjoys editing is a blessing one must always be thankful for; in any case, I would gladly dismiss Helena’s editing skills for the friendship which has shaped this work beyond recognition and, necessarily, beyond any written acknowledgment.

This model was expanded upon by musicians in England and Germany during the late-1970s who developed the popular music style called Industrial as a fusion of experimental popular music sounds, performance art theatricality, and avant-garde composition.

    FKP Scorpio Konzertproduktionen GmbH Große Elbstr. 277 a ∙ 22767 Hamburg Tel. (040) 853 88 888 ∙ www.fkpscorpio.com PRESSEMITTEILUNG 04.02.2020 Suede im Rahmen der Jumbiläumstour zu „Coming Up“ exklusiv in Berlin Die britische Band Suede steht seit den neunziger Jahren für einen großen Aufbruch, einen neuen Stil – und tut das bis heute. Nach ihrer Reunion Anfang der Zehner-Jahre haben Suede nahtlos da weitergemacht, wo sie 2003 aufgehört hatten. Die Musik, den Brit-Pop revolutionieren. Niemals still stehen. Sich selbst ständig fordern. Oder wie die Band es selbst ausdrückt: „Getting the energy of what you used to do without becoming a self-parody is the holy grail“. Dabei blicken Suede ruhig zurück und stellen das in den Mittelpunkt, was prägend war. 1996 erschien mit „Coming Up“ das kommerziell erfolgreichste Album der Karriere und gleichzeitig das erste, das in der heute noch gültigen Besetzung eingespielt wurde: die Gründungsmitglieder, Sänger Brett Anderson und Bassist Mat Osman, und der kurz darauf dazustoßende Schlagzeuger Simon Gilbert bilden bis heute das Gerüst, Gitarrist Richard Oakes hatte Bernard Butler ersetzt, und Keyboarder Neil Coding war gerade frisch dabei. „Coming Up“ erreichte den ersten Platz der britischen Charts, wurde mit Platin ausgezeichnet und als zweite Suede-Platte für den Mercury Prize nominiert. In diesem Jahr feiert das erfolgreiche Album 25-Jähriges. Wenn man sich dieses Werk heute anhört, fragt man sich ein wenig, wo eigentlich der Britpop darin versteckt ist, zu sehr haben Blur und Pulp und natürlich Oasis den Genrebegriff geprägt. Aber wenn man genau hinhört, bemerkt man, warum sie die Engländer das große Vorbild für die anderen waren – und wie wenig sie sich um Einordnungen und Schubladen gekümmert haben.

    Brit Pop Mania, Il Fascino Agrodolce Della Leggerezza

    Brit pop mania, il fascino agrodolce della leggerezza - Vilmo Modoni, 01.05.2015 Anni Novanta/Dopo i Sixties, le band inglesi tornavano a dominare. Sulla scia del successo delle band dei fratelli Gallagher e del duo Albarn/Coxon, si impose una lunga sfilza di emuli. Solo pochi sono sopravvissuti. Ecco i nomi da ricordare Brit pop, fu vera gloria? Fu davvero un movimento da includere nel novero dei generi musicali storici, accanto a beat, folk, psichedelia, hard rock, punk, grunge ecc.? Oppure può essere catalogato tra le grandi truffe del rocknroll, rappresentando solo una colossale macchinazione mediatica per rilanciare la moribonda industria musicale britannica dopo anni di incontrastata egemonia statunitense? Probabilmente non si giungerà mai a una parola definitiva. Erano giorni, quelli dellesplosione del brit pop a metà anni Novanta, in cui un pimpante ragazzetto poteva avvicinarsi a un giornalista incrociato per caso al festival di Reading, consegnargli un demo e trovarsi mesi dopo a Top of the Pops senza aver inciso una sola nota, unico caso nella storia della trasmissione. Il ragazzo si chiamava Johnny Dean e Menswear il suo gruppo. Durarono un anno scarso, finirono sulle prime pagine del Melody Maker e del New Musical Express come «band meglio vestita del Regno Unito» e rappresentarono il culmine di una faraonica isteria collettiva: tutti ebbero un ritaglio di giornale, 15 minuti di celebrità, un 45 giri definito memorabile. Trainati dal chiacchiericcio Oasis contro Blur, decine di gruppi (Sleeper, Speedy, DexDexTer, My Life Story, Marion, Orlando, solo per citarne alcuni) vivranno una sola estate finendo a ingolfare gli scaffali dei negozi dellusato.

    Suede Tickets for 2011 London Residency on Sale Now at GetMeIn.com Submitted by: Propellernet Friday, 28 January 2011 Fresh from their glorious December show at London’s The O2 Arena, Britpop pioneers Suede continue their comeback with a 3-night residency at the O2 Brixton Academy in London on 19th, 20th and 21st May, with tickets available for fans through Ticketmaster’s GET ME IN! ticket marketplace. Fronted by Brett Anderson with Richard Oakes, Simon Gilbert, Neil Codling and Matt Osman, Suede dedicate each night to one of their influential first 3 albums; 1993’s eponymous titled debut “Suede,” 1994’s majestic “Dog Man Star” and the chart-storming Britpop classic, “Coming Up.” Each night the band will play an album in its entirety, including single b-sides from each era. Suede arrived in 1992 when US Grunge bands dominated the airwaves. The band’s unmistakably British style quickly found new fans and with a little help from the NME, Suede were set for stardom. Their self-titled debut “Suede” was winning blend of classic British songwriting in the vein of The Smiths with influences of Marc Bolan/T Rex and Ziggy-era Bowie. The ambitious follow-up, “Dog Man Star” failed to match sales of the debut but has since been widely regarded as a pop masterpiece. Differences between the band and guitarist and founding member, Bernard Butler led to an acrimonious split. Many believed Butler’s departure would signal the end for Suede, but like Phoenix, Suede re-emerged with new members. Then 16-years old guitar prodigy, Richard Oakes and multi-instrumentalist, Neil Codling helped Suede achieve their biggest hit to date.

This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License. 2 Introduction Every live gig I’ve ever been to has given me some kind of story to tell. You could ask me about any of them and I could come up with at least one occurrence that captured the spirit of the night. But not every live show has been truly ‘special’. I’ve seen excellent performances by bands with crowds numbering in their thousands that were simply ‘very good nights out’. No more, no less. No, it’s those gigs that leave you buzzing all the way home that count, the ones where you really felt part of something special and years later, need only think of that occasion to be right back there, in soul if not in body. Sometimes the whole gig doesn’t have to be brilliant, a single ‘magic moment’ is all you need. And it’s those events that have kept me coming back for more. Most people just settle for a few favourites and watch them every time they come round. I’m not like that. I’ve rolled the dice on catching relatively unknown bands plenty of times (especially at festivals). You never know what you might discover. It doesn’t always work. I’ve had my share of dead nights, shitty soundsystems and line-ups that seem to shift every time you look at them.
