Major New Festival Features Legendary Rock Band Spring and Fall Are the Busy Times in Southern Maryland for Festivals, Fairs

Major new festival features legendary rock band Posted by Dick.Myers_Editor On 05/29/2013 Spring and fall are the busy times in Southern Maryland for festivals, fairs and other special events. But there was that short window of opportunity right after Memorial Day for another major event. Summerseat Farm on Route 235 in Oakville has seized that opportunity. This Saturday, June 1st will be the first Beer, Bands & BBQ. The bands part of the event features legendary rockers the Smithereens. To order tickets for Beer, Bands and BBQ, go to the Summerseat website at http://www.summerseat.org/Home/tabid/36/Default.aspx The Smithereens formed in1980 and continue to this day with most of the original members, including lead vocalist and guitarist Pat DiNizio. All the original members were from New Jersey. The only change from the original band occurred in 2006 when Severo Jomacion took over bass guitar from Mike Mesaros. Other members are Jim Babjak (guitar and vocals), and Dennis Diken (drums and percussion). The band is noted for writing and playing catchy 19060’s influenced power pop. Their first album, “Blood and Roses” was included in the soundtrack for the 1986 movie “Dangerously Close.” This month and next the Smithereens will be special guests of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers for six concerts. They have collaborated in the studio with musicians such as Suzanne Vega and Belinda Carlisle and on stage with Graham Parker and the Kinks. Other bands performing from Beer, Bands and BBQ from 1-8 p.m. are 80’s Metal Hair tribute band “One Louder” and local favorites “Justin Myles Experience” and the “Sam Grow Band.” Rounding out the other two “B’s” in the title of the event are 10 premium and craft beers and plenty of finger lickin’ food. Historic Summerseat Farm was founded in 1678. The farm includes War of 1812 and Civil War gravesites. The manor house dates from the turn of the 20th century and there are a number of historic barns and outbuildings. A buffalo herd grazes in the fields and a number of farm animals are available for viewing to enhance the rural experience. The farm was purchased by a non-profit organization with the help of a grant from the Maryland Legislature and a loan for the Maryland Environmental Trust. It is operated by a dedicated band of volunteers, who take care of the animals, maintain the gardens and provide upkeep to the manor house and other buildings. The manor house is available for rent for weddings and other special events. Copyright © 2021 thebaynet.com. All rights reserved. Page 1.

Some Advice for Phone-Addicted Youth Who Want To
The Roots Report: Look What’s Going Down: Artists have a duty to voice their opinions Okee dokee folks… “It’s s time we stop, hey, what’s that sound, everybody look what’s going down.” This is from one of the most famous protest songs ever written, “For What It’s Worth,” by Stephen Stills (Buffalo Springfield). It was written more than 50 years ago in response to the Sunset Strip curfew riots in California and is still revered as one of the best songs of that generation. A few years later, Neil Young wrote his song “Ohio” about the Kent State shootings. Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young quickly recorded this song, and when it was released as a single, it was backed with another Stephen Stills protest anthem “Find The Cost Freedom.” At the time, “Ohio” was banned by some radio stations, but today it is one of the few actual protest songs still being played on radio. These songs, the bands and the writers were major inspirations and influences for me as a musician and songwriter. Not only do I perform “Ohio” with my band Forever Young and “For What It’s Worth” when I play solo, but I have written many sociopolitical songs of my own that are part of my body of solo work. I feel protest songs need to be written, but they are the hardest type of song to get right. They need to express the concern and anger of the subject matter and marry it perfectly with a melody to make the song viable.

The Roots Report: an Interview with Dennis Diken
The Roots Report: An Interview with Dennis Diken In December of last year, Pat DiNizio, lead singer, guitarist and songwriter of the band The Smithereens, died at the age of 62. The Smithereens have had hits with songs such as, “Blood and Roses,” “Only a Memory” and “A Girl Like You.” DiNizio’s untimely passing was not only an emotional blow to the band, but it put their future in jeopardy. In January of this year they turned an already scheduled show into a tribute to DiNizio. At that concert several guest vocalists/musicians joined the band and among them was Marshall Crenshaw. He is known for his hits, “Someday, Someway” and “Whenever You’re On My Mind.” Besides those songs and others he played the role of Buddy Holly in the film LaBamba and began his career as John Lennon in Beatlemania. Crenshaw will be filling the vacant vocalist spot along with the surviving members of the Smithereens: Dennis Diken, Jim Babjak, and Mike Masaros when they come to the Greenwich Odeum on Saturday, November 17. I spoke with drummer, Dennis Diken about what has been going on with the band. Dennis Diken (Smithereens): Hey, John, it’s Dennis Diken from the Smithereens John Fuzek (Motif): Hi, how are you? Thanks for calling! DD: I am good, how are you doing, man? JF: I am good, so you are playing a show at the Greenwich Odeum next week, it’s a nice venue, have you ever played there? DD: It does not ring a bell but it’s been a long time we’ve been touring, it’s possible but I don’t think so JF: Maybe you played the Narrows last time that you were in town? I am not sure, I just know that I have missed your show every time you play! DD: I don’t think we have been to RI in a while.

THE SMITHEREENS Bio
THE SMITHEREENS bio Pat DiNizio—vocals, guitar Jim Babjak—guitar, vocals Dennis Diken—drums, vocals Severo "the Thrilla" Jornacion—bass "I think it's as good as anything we've ever done," Pat DiNizio says of Smithereens 2011 , the Smithereens' first album of original songs in 11 years. "I hate to use the term 'comeback album,' and it certainly wasn't planned that way, but it really feels like it," adds his longtime bandmate Jim Babjak. "It has the raw vibe of our early albums, while showing that we're moving forward and that we're still at the top of our game after 31 years." Indeed, the 13-song set shows the New Jersey-bred quartet to be making some of the most urgent music of their three-decade career, delivering their timeless brand of punchy, heartfelt rock 'n' roll with as much fire as ever. Such instantly memorable new tunes as "Sorry," "One Look At You," "A World of Our Own" and "Rings On Her Fingers" exemplify the Smithereens' trademark brand of punchy melodic songcraft, driven home by DiNizio's expressive vocals and emotionally complex lyrics, along with fiery ensemble performances that show off the uncanny musical chemistry of longstanding musical partners DiNizio, Babjak and Dennis Diken, and later addition Severo "the Thrilla" Jornacion, who joined in 2006. Smithereens 2011 's title slyly acknowledges the fact that it's the band's 11th studio album, and that it's been 11 years since their last collection of original material. The album's moniker—as well as its cover design—also pays tribute to the foursome's beloved 1989 release Smithereens 11 .

The Beatles, Instrumentals En Fora Mei 2009
L.M. van der Schoot The Beatles, Instrumentals en fora mei 2009 The Beatles, Instrumentals en Fora L.M. van der Schoot Studentnummer: 0456659. Begeleiding: Joke Dame Cursusnaam: MA Thesis Muziekwetenschap. Cursuscode: 200501202. Universiteit Utrecht; Faculteit Geesteswetenschappen; opleiding Muziekwetenschap. Datum: mei 2009. 1 Lotte van der Schoot The Beatles, Instrumentals en Google Maart 2009 “Anyone tackling the oft-told tale of John, Paul, George and Ringo had better come up with a new angle, or new facts, or new interviews, or new something - or risk suffering the wrath of zillions of Beatles nuts.” Kirkus Reviews 2007, Academic Search Elite 2 L.M. van der Schoot The Beatles, Instrumentals en fora mei 2009 Woord vooraf Aan het begin van collegejaar 2008/2009 heb ik een cursus popmuziek gevolgd. Deze cursus had als onderwerp 'the popular instrumental'. Uit onderzoek voor deze paper kwam naar voren dat de bekendste popgroep aller tijden - The Beatles - ook instrumentale songs hebben geschreven. Mijn interesse was gewekt, te meer omdat ik de Beatles voornamelijk kende van nummers zoals 'Hey Jude', 'Yesterday' en 'Strawberry Fields Forever'. Deze fameuze popgroep heeft dus eveneens andersoortige nummers geschreven. In deze thesis wil ik geen 'herziene' versie maken van informatie die al tot in den treuren is uitgeplozen. Dit is echter niet eenvoudig, maar 'instrumentale nummers' is één van de onderwerpen die als onderwerp op zichzelf, nooit onderzocht is. In de hoogtij dagen van The Beatles – de jaren 1960 – zijn er maar op 3 albums instrumentals terug te vinden. De bekendste is waarschijnlijk 'Revolution 9' van de White Album (1968). Verder staat op het album Magical Mystery Tour (1967) het nummer 'Flying'.
