Remember Me
I'm just not sure if there is "that one and only someone" out there for everyone. Even if there is, with the current world population of just over 6.5 billion, the odds of my perfect someone and me crossing paths are, at best, deeply stacked against me. No matter how often I try to beat the living crap out of my helpless romantic side, that tenacious little bitch is tougher than she looks. Together, we've come to a compromise. If a man ever looks me dead in the eye and says, sober with the utmost sincerity, "If you suck my soul, I will lick your funky emotions" AND I believe him, then that could maybe be my someone. George Clinton hit on something genius when he coined that phrase. Funk music began as an illicit analogy and soundtrack for sex and therein lies its power. Real funk grabs your visceral inner hedonist and brings her out to dance. In my opinion, the litmus test for legitimate funk is its ability to open your soul to full capacity and make you warm below the belt. In the sage words of Alice Russell and TM Juke, "Maybe I'm asking too much, but the best is all I do." What follows is an introductory look at a few funk and soul bands that you may not be familiar with, but the best is all they do. It's music that uses you up, and all you want to do afterwards is smoke a cigarette and pass out.
"We're not scared of disco," says drummer O'Shea before their last gig at the Elbo Room in San Francisco, on a particularly craptacular rainy night in January. "There's been a big retro-soul revival lately but where say, Amy Winehouse or Sharon Jones have a '60s sound, we draw from a different musical palette, more '70s."
O'Shea, keyboardist Hastie and guitarist Rios are a few of the core members of the group, who have been playing together in some form or another for 15 years. Collectively, the band has built a formidable resume, with members also playing in the Breakestra, The Lions and as the backing band for the Pharcyde, Little Brother and Plantlife. "We are all pretty like-minded about our vision and our style," says Rios, "so it makes sense that we would work on different projects together."
For most of that January tour, Orgone was the opening act and the back-up band for veteran indie MC Pharoah Monch. So, if any group has their finger on the pulse of the current state of American funk music it's Orgone.
"Honestly, I think it's [funk music] in a better place than it's been in a long time," says O'Shea. "It's been great to be on tour with a pro like Monch. People who wouldn't expect a hip-hop show to have a live band get a whole new idea of what live hip-hop [can be], and crowds have really loved it. From the beginning we've tried as much as possible to approximate our musical idols - Booker T and the MG's, Roy Ayers, The Meters but to still keep it fresh."
"We have to give a lot of credit to Scion to put a 9-piece band on tour to back an MC, which could theoretically be done with one DJ. [It] shows a lot of vision and faith in what we do. Their support has been fantastic," says Hastie.
As we talked, I was struck by their innate and intelligent sense of each other. Their genuine camaraderie translates into an intuitive playing style that confidently knows it's super bad. Their original compositions are horn, percussion and disco soaked torches that lit up a damp San Francisco citizenry like a gas station fire. Vocalist Fanny Franklin delivered more than enough California soul to make Marlena Shaw proud, especially on "Who Knows Who," an Orgone original that easily sounds like a soul classic. "Hambone" is an undeniably dirty mix of Afrobeat and disco, heavily grounded by a driving bassline, powerful drum work and polished horns that ring of Fela Kuti and Curtis Mayfield. "Sophisticated Honky" is a seasoned funk journey laden with filthy guitar. "It's What You Do" and "A Wot" both sound like they were lifted from the funkiest '70s blaxploitation movies and updated for 2008. Their originals stand strong next to their classic funk covers like "Funky Nassau" (The Beginning of the End), "Ain't No Use" (The Meters) and "Tell Mama" (Etta James likely by way of Janis Joplin).
Orgone is touring the West Coast now, dates available here...
"Our first album was done a lot like a hip-hop album, all produced in the lab," says Salters over the phone from L.A. while on break from mixing the new record for his other project, General Eletriks. "[Honeycut] really only became a band after we started playing live shows. Once we all get back to the Bay we're going to start work on our second album and try to incorporate some of the live element that we've developed over the last year and half."
"The thing about us is onstage we actually play everything, even though we incorporate electronic sonics everything is played [live]. Tony plays the MPC live. He's drumming, really [but] instead of a drum kit he's playing a sampling drum machine. No loops, no sequencers, he's just playing it with his fingers," continues Salters. "It allows us to have the sonics but still the live element. We're all locking into a pocket that particular night with that particular audience and it's never the same twice. I think that differentiates us from other bands that use electronic sonics onstage and usually end up using sequencers for that stuff."
Honeycut is a precisely mixed recipe of electro, funk and soul, and their live performances bring something for every dance junkie. Joined by bassist Leo Krenner, their March 7 show at the Great American Music Hall was no exception. Their combination of organic and electronic elements is a near perfect balance, and it creates a slice of new soul that is just as seductive as older models but way more fun. Salter's manipulation of his vintage Clavinet is as impressive and vigorous as his simultaneous dance moves. Davenport's voice is indeed "Silky," the one slow ballad of their set, after which Davenport declared that the down-tempo was over. "Crowded Avenue" has the slightest hint of 1974 Robert Palmer singing "Sneakin' Sally Through The Alley" - fun, funky and addictive. Their covers of Indeep's "Last Night a DJ Saved My Life" and Shuggie Otis' "Strawberry Letter 23" are dance gems, illustrating their modern take on what has come before. The only disappointing thing about their set was its short length.
Alice Russell
"All music is such a mish-mash of all sorts. If you look at the history of any music it's all just an amalgamation of what's come before. Everything has come before, and that's actually what I'm doing and I hope it's a bit of everything," says Russell. "I'm taking all the music I love, from the totally deep, deep thick old school like James Brown, Minnie Ripperton, gospel and black-style music to the modern artists I love like Kate Bush, Paul Simon Prince, etc. I want to have a bit of all of them in there. And it makes sense to have them all in there. I hate it when people get all picky, like, 'You should only have this style of music or that style' Why? Why would you want to go through life eating only plain pasta with butter on it? Why can't you have all the flavors? It makes more sense to be a person that lives in the world that is for everything and everyone, especially with music and food. Maybe not sex, though, since that could cause bad vibes and diseases and I've got a boyfriend that I love."
That fact might severely depress a large contingent of her fans. She sold out the first of her two mid-week shows when she came to Mojito in S.F. last March. The majority of the Monday night crowd looked like love struck hipster and funk 45 crate-diggers, awed at the sight and sound of an adorable, pint-sized blond woman with an enormous soul diva voice and zero diva attitude. Her sound draws from an incredible range, from jazz crooning and scatting to the gully, gritty and skin tingling. Russell exudes pure vocal power wrapped in sass and fun. Her voice lies somewhere between Sharon Jones and Nina Simone.
Budget restrictions prevented her from bringing the complete powerhouse U.K. band, The Pups. However, she was able to bring guitarist/producer/co-songwriter TM Juke (aka Alex Cowan) and violinist/guitarist Michael Simmonds, both key contributors to her signature sound. They supplemented the band with local players Josh Lippi (bass) and Derek Taylor (drums), who had to learn the material at soundcheck for each show.
"Humankind" is a reggae-tinged romp that plainly states, "If we go your way or you come to mine/ Come lets create a new humankind/ Can you tug my hair and slap my behind/ I'm a whole lot of woman and I want to recline." Her version of Donny Hathaway's "I Love You More than You'll Ever Know" was heart-melting, as was her slow original "Hurry On Now," which contrasted with her darkly funky cover of The White Stripes' "Seven-Nation Army," where her belting voice and Simmonds' wailing violin made an electric combination. I'd always envisioned that my dream someone charming me with George Clinton's sweet promises would be male but Alice Russell is so drenched in sensuality that if she made me that offer, I'd have to give some serious consideration to switching teams.
If your old brand of funk isn't getting it done like it needs to get done, well, then it's time upgrade. There are brave new worlds of funk and soul music to fall in love with, or at least one-night stands that will not disappoint.

She's cute!
that is one of the most funky bad ass versions of the White Stripes song i've ever heard!!! she reminds me of Joss Stone a bit.
Man it's good to hear more on Honeycut. I haven't heard about them since that on article on them that was written by that one tool bag.
I saw Honeycut open for the Crowes. I was embarrassed to say I was born and raised in San Franisco watching them. Can I just get some rock and roll, please? Please. Is that too much to ask.
Great article - I'm really trying to find & explore new music to keep my mind positive and keep stepping in the right direction. This definitely helped the cause! :)
Robyn, nice article- one of the better pieces on this site for some time.
Oh, yeah- and, he's out there somewhere for you, don't you worry.
Jamie Lidell anyone? What about Jamie???
As for Alice, meh… Can't she just sing and not spend half her energy embellishing every other note?
I wish I could go back in time and wack Whitney Houston. These little vocal tricks, yips and wails are killing funk/soul. That's the difference between a GREAT singer and one who wants to be great. You don't need to embellish what is natural, funky and fantastic. Some may say it is a progression of the art form – I say it's window dressing and showing off.
Check out Aretha Franklin live at the Fillmore West for how this should be done. As a matter of fact... Take a stab at what's going into my CD player?
ah Jamie Lidell, good call. I will throw that in the hopper for next time, for sure. No one is going to argue with Aretha @ The Fillmore, but I think she embellishes her stuff from time to time, also. I think all vocalists do it, even pre-Whitney. Either way thanks for reading, friends.
Awesome intro by Robyn Rubinstein.
i think Honeycut has potential
very well written article, good job!
kirkbrew, you make an excellent point. I have noticed that a lot of the new singers cannot seem to help themselves. The embellishments have their place, but only if used judiciously, which is to say, sparingly. One does not show all the tricks in one's bag, otherwise their sum effect is quickly negated. Imagine every guitar solo with a wah-wah.
Tell me more about Jamie Lidell- not familiar...thanks!
"Real funk grabs your visceral inner hedonist and brings her out to dance."
yeah Robyn, you tell 'em. wow great stuff!
Nice work, Ruby.
Robyn does the job again. Sure made me curious about all these artists but I'd expect nothing less from a lady who understands that soul is a hamhock in your cornflakes...
yo great article. I love all these artists and they get so little respect and need more shine!
If you are in SF tonight Orgone is playing at Boom Boom Room.
if ya like the artists in this article def check out San Francisco's Pleasuremaker (myspace.com/pleasuremaker)
brooklyn's Pimps of Joytime (myspace.com/pimpsofjoytime
and Miami's Spam All-Stars
breadloaf - "One does not show all the tricks in one's bag". Good point. Nothing wrong with bending a note or laying it on thick, but to do it on every tune and all the time? Urgh! I choose to turn off (and bitch about it when I hear it).
I hear his shows are...interesting. Stuff like a "nose camera". Who cares? He cranks some groovie blue-eyed-soul.
ozbad - Thanks for the tips! Diggin now.
BTW - Robyn/Jambase. I dig the concept of this article. Pick a genre or style, talk about who is new and cool and provide content. Keep this up!!!
shes a hottie.
Grace Potter could be added to this list, representing the classic/country-rock sound.
Honeycut is pretty fun live too!
thanks for the wonderful article, Robyn. you are obviously someone who knows what time it is. i just turned fifty years old and though i went to the dead in early 70s and loved zappa and zep etc when we had big berkeley parties late at night it was EW&F, Curtis, the Tempts etc. Sly Stone! I don't know Orgone but I heard of them and now I will check 'em out. I checked Alice Russell's music out a bit on line and my stellar buddies w/ Sunset in SF have had her over at their club Mojito a few times, I am very sorry to have missed her recently. I'm a big fan of Honeycut and i've seen em 3x now, opening for our local heroes ALO at the Fillmore, up in Seattle at Bumbershoot last year and a few weeks later at the first day of SF's Treasure Island Music Festival (dates in sept set already i think sat sun 21 and 22, come on out a very cool festie). They are nothing but a good time. BTW Bart Davenport plays an amazing solo guitar set, he has such a great vibe and has a few solo rekkids and I consider him to be a bay area treasure (The Kinetics, The Lovemakers at one pt, Persephone's Bees etc). You can always say "hey you missed blah blah artist" but just b/c I listened to their (1st?) rekkid this am on way to work, Khronos (Kronos?), ima have to represent my man Reggie Watts and Maktub. Talk about sum fonky ass soulful shit...yaddadamean? Anyway thanks 'base and thanx Robyn for this fine piece of work on da funky stuff! tom / berkeley ca
Great Story! Just what I need is more new funk. My thirst for all that is funky is never quenched. If you dig these types of grooves check out The Quantic Soul Orchestra or The Dynamites feat. Charles Walker. About a year ago I picked up a four disc CD set called What It Is! 120 plus tracks of rare ,remastered funk tracks from '67 to '77. Rare cuts from bigger names like The Meters and Curtis Mayfield and and lesser known acts like Rasputin's Stash and Black Heat. Exceptionally funkdafied!! I especially dig the track on disc 3 by Macondo titled "Almendra." Whole set is bad ass. If you live in the Nashville area, I bartend at the T.G.I.Friday's in Cool Springs. Swing by for some Friday Night Funk. I hook up my MP3 player to our sound system and and crank out funk, new and old, and the best indie underground hip hop from midnight to 3 AM. From The Meters to Jurassic 5 to Soulive, Gangstarr, Atmosphere, MMW, James Brown, Dr.John, and many, many more.
I have to mention someone. Eva Cassidy. You may not find a ton of funk but OH, THE SOUL THAT WOMAN HAD! It's so tragic that she couldn't get the recognition she deserved before her passing but no less, she is a treasure.
honeycut is where its at. act like you know.
if you want funk look for alexis p. suter band out of the brooklyn/woodstock/northern jersey region. frequent quests at levon helm's midnight rambles and damn can that big black momma sing.
Great call on Eva Cassidy. Huge fan of hers. She had such style.
what a cutie. yea, i said it, cutie.
I love when there's some new music to check out on here. Another great one to check out is Stampead. They've got a really unique sound and great songs.
One quick correction - Ain't No Use(The Meters) not Stevie Wonder. Though that song is awesome, too, that wasn't the one they played :)
Did someone say honeycunt?
Great story feature! I do wonder if the bass clarinet in the Honeycut picture is in reverence of another Bay Area contemporary Edmund Welles Quartet.
I second the motion that the motion of new funk is never out of motion.
And of course this band as well Mental Afro http://mentalafro.com
Excellent article, made me want to get up and dance.
Yeah, I am gettin all this, great artickle, I am gettin alot of new music thanks jambase. Also I just picked up The Heavey, they throw some funky sh*t down too!

Attorneys ask for "black box" from Gerald's truck
BATON ROUGE - The man accused of killing seven people in a drunk-driving crash appeared in court today.
Brett Gerald's attorneys asked that information from a "black box" recorder in Gerald's truck be turned over to them. State Police investigators testified that no reliable data was able to be recovered from the device.
Gerald pleaded not guilty to seven counts of vehicular homicide from the May 30 wreck. Investigators said he'd admitted to drinking for several hours at a golf course earlier that day.
Gerald's trial is scheduled to begin on Dec. 10, and he's scheduled to be back in court for another motions hearing Oct. 9.
Friends and family of the crash's victims rallied outside the courthouse before the hearing. News 2's Chris Nakamoto spoke with them, and will have an update on the case tonight at 6.

Potential for food crisis growing - UNComment on this story
Rome - World food prices surged in July after falling in the previous three months and could rise further, increasing the potential for a food crisis of the kind seen in 2007/08, the United Nations food agency said on Thursday.
"Prices have the potential to increase further," the Food and Agriculture Organisation's senior economist and grain analyst Abdolreza Abbassian told Reuters. "Definitely it is not going to be a season where prices fall below the previous year."
A food crisis erupted five year ago as soaring grain futures markets helped push up prices and sparked violent food riots, although a rerun would only happen if countries started to introduce policies such as export bans, he said.
The FAO Food Price Index, which measures monthly price changes for a food basket of cereals, oilseeds, dairy, meat and sugar, averaged 213 points in July, up 12 points from June, and back to levels seen in April this year, the FAO said in a monthly index update.
July's level is still below a record of 238 points reached in February 2011, FAO said, but close to levels seen during the food crisis in 2007/08. - Reuters

At a time when even the fossil fuel industry admits that climate change is real, we are still using the stuff and pretty much destroying the only planet we have.
The only way we are going to change this situation is to create a new model that makes the old one obsolete. I'm already doing just that and you can too. With only a 6KW solar array on my home, I'm powering my all-electric house, my electric car and electric motorcycle, lawn mower, etc., and I no longer have a power bill or have to stop and fill up my car with gas at $60 at a time.
And no, it's not too expensive. As a matter of fact it's down right cheap. Currently a 6KW array (self installed) runs about $10,000. Over the lifetime of that array it will save you at least $80,000 in gas and electricity.
I'm no math wizard but that looks like the best investment a person can make in any economy. And as an extra bonus you get to help save the planet and the future for your kids.

According to WHO estimates, tuberculosis case detection rate in Tanzania is less than 50% and this poses a major challenge to control tuberculosis in the country. Currently, one of the defining criteria for suspecting tuberculosis is cough for two weeks or more. We wanted to find out whether the prevalence of tuberculosis was different in patients who reported cough for two weeks or more, compared to patients with cough for less than two weeks.
We conducted a cross sectional study in six health facilities in Dar es Salaam, between September and October 2007. All patients aged five years and above with cough were screened for pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) by smear microscopy. Patients were divided into two groups, those who coughed for less than two weeks (<2 wks) and those who coughed for two weeks or more (≥ 2 wks).
A total of 65,530 patients attended outpatients department (OPD). Out of these, 2274 (3.5%) patients reported cough. Among patients who reported cough, 2214 (97.4%) remembered their cough duration. One thousand nine hundred and seventy three patients (89.1%) coughed for ≥ 2 wks as compared to 241 (10.9%) patients who coughed for <2 wks. Of those who coughed for two weeks or more, 250 (12.7%) had smear positive PTB, and of those who had coughed for less than two weeks, 21 (8.7%) had smear positive PTB. There was no statistically significant difference in prevalence of smear positive tuberculosis among the two groups (Pearson Chi-Square 3.2; p = 0.074).
Detection of smear positive PTB among patients who coughed for less than two weeks was as high as for those who coughed for two weeks or more.

Entries tagged with: Andrew Bird
At 35, Bird has spent almost 15 years working relentlessly for the sort of exposure he now seems poised to enjoy. "Six years ago, when I was still struggling, I just wanted to go anywhere in the world and play for 300 people," he says.Andrew's new album Noble Beast is now streaming at NPR.
And yet when I first met Bird a couple of weeks before the Hideout show, he didn't have the air of an underappreciated artist finally about to be given his due. On the contrary, he seemed worried about losing control over a career that he is accustomed to micromanaging. He wondered, for instance, if "Noble Beast" was perhaps being promoted too aggressively. Bird's publicist had wanted him to play one of the first shows on his coming tour at Radio City Music Hall (capacity: 6,000). Bird was concerned that it was too big a venue, that he might fail to make a connection with the audience and that things could easily spiral downward from there. They compromised on Carnegie Hall, which seats about 3,000.
"A lot of bands get hyped and go from playing for no one to playing for thousands of people, most of whom are standing there with their arms folded saying, 'O.K., are you really as good as everyone says you are?' " Bird told me. "I've never had to deal with that. I've gotten here by winning one person at a time."

We're a week away from the Swedish invasion that is Melpo Mene and Loney, Dear both in NYC at the same time.

The amazing Andrew Bird played his second of two nights at Hiro Ballroom in NYC last night before heading to Music Hall of Williamsburg to close out the Barack Rock event with a second, but shorter performace (10/7). More than half of Bird's Hiro set was made up of songs taken from his upcoming album, "Noble Beast." There was whistling. Minnsesota/South Dakota singer-songwriter Haley Bonar opened the show and plays again at Union Hall in Brooklyn tonight (10/8). More pictures and the setlist below...

Last night (October 7) 6 musicians and 6 comedians came together to raise money for Democrtaic presidential candidate Barack Obama. The not-so-packed, but sold out event went on over the course of 5 and a half hours, ending with a set by Andrew Bird who thought this was the greatest afterparty he could imagine. The $40 event was highlighted by an appearance by not-so-secret-guests Franz Ferdindand (who play the same venue again tonight)
"Thanks for letting a bunch of Limeys like us play your rally," said Scot and Greenpoint resident Alex Kapranos. "We only hope you'll invite us back for your victory party." It was a fun night in support of who many of us hope will be the next President of the United States. [Sound Bites]Other highlights were Eugene Mirman's RNC video coverage, a Les Savy Fav (another not-so-secret guust) patriotic song sing-a-long, and a set by the Fiery Furnaces.
Fiery Furnaces may have played all new songs, I didn't recognize an of them at least. Once again, they've reinvented themselves since last seeing them at MHOW last December. They're now organ-heavy, early '70s funk. I still marvel at Elanor's ability to memorize Fiery Furnaces insanely-verbose lyrics. [Sound Bites]Each band played 3-5 songs and each comedian joked for about 15 minutes. Downstairs was Obama headquarters where live video of the debate was viewable.

"Andrew Bird -- Wow, was this guy awful. I wanted to get close to the stage for She & Him so I had to tolerate Bird's performance. It was horrendous. He played a violin like a guitar. Not cool. But what was perplexing was that everyone else LOVED this guy. It was like I was taking crazy pills. He had more people than either The Go! Team and She & Him (who sandwiched him on the south stage). When his set was over everyone cleared out. What were these people thinking?!? She & Him were next! It's times like this that I lose faith in humanity." [Yeah Right]A violin like a guitar?!?!?!

Gothamist: I assume you're going to be with Andrew Bird at All Points West?Dosh is on tour with Anathallo. You can catch them tonight (May 24) at Union Hall in Brooklyn. Last night they played Mercury Lounge. How was it? More pictures from the show below...
Dosh: Absolutely. Yes. That's going to be awesome.
Gothamist: Where are you guys at with his new album?
Dosh: Let's see. I want to say maybe 80% there. I think there are nine or ten tunes done. Jeremy just went to Chicago to do some bass on a bunch of the stuff. I'm not sure what the total count of tunes is that are going to be on there. Jeremy and Andrew went to Nashville and recorded I think seven songs there with guitars, violins and vocals. They sent me the files and I recorded a bunch of strange percussion stuff in my basement and then went to Chicago with Jeremy and did some live stuff there. And when Andrew was in Minneapolis for the World of Dosh show we recorded some looping in my basement.

Wolves and Wishes, Martin Dosh's fourth official LP, arrives after its architect spent nearly a year on the road--touring solo and as a member of Andrew Bird's band--and yet, he sounds reborn. If 2006's The Lost Take reimagined the drums, Rhodes and everything-but-the-kitchen-sink virtuoso as a full band, his latest restocks the lineup with a fresh cast of collaborators, then stretches out as Dosh masterminds the material (composing, improvising, arranging) with all the explorative wonderment of a debut ablum. Never has our man sounded so free. And to think, there's not a single drum machine in the mix. Wolves And Wishes will is available on CD today, May 13. The vinyl version of the record will be in store June 10. [PR]What do you think of the new album? Grab one MP3 from it above.

Andrew Bird's sock monkey in Bellingham, WA - May 6, 2007 (CRED)
Something very important came out in Gothamist's interview with Andrew Bird this week...
Whenever I'm going to do an interview I always scan the fan sites to see what people are obsessing over. In your case, there seems to be a lot of message-board curiosity about where you get your socks. There are entire threads about this, titled things like "Dude, where does Bird get his socks?!", "I will ask him at the San Francisco show, if I can, directly after I ask him to marry me!" And "I don't want him to think that I only love him for his socks." So are they custom made or would you rather that remain a mystery?Andrew Bird's socks - SXSW 2004 (CRED)
Andrew: Sometimes people give them to me, which is nice. Who doesn't need a new pair of socks? We're actually working on making our own socks instead of T-shirts. But honestly the best socks I've ever found in the most colorful and interesting patterns are Paul Smith. They're pricey but they're pretty beautiful socks. But I mix it up, you know I wear Sock Monkey socks sometimes. Have you ever seen those Sock Monkey kits? They're good socks! But onstage I have admit I do pay a little more attention to my sock wear.
The interview by John Del Signore also reveals Andrew's thoughts on one small Brooklyn venue he visited recently...
We just played Union Hall and I thought that was a pretty great place. I just like how much work they put into those glass cases.Below you'll find a picture of Andrew's socks from that very show....

I was planning on attending the Andrew Bird / Hawk and a Hacksaw wordless show in NYC Wednesday night, but like Beirut I was too exhausted to make the trip. Sounds like it was good...
This was an amazing night. Bird seemed to channel his music in a way that I have never experience. He swayed, paced, tossed his head, and generally exuded joy throughout the entire concert. He made use of several live recording devices, which allowed him to layer his own music on top of more of his own music. Simply orchestrating this complicated bit of art was amazing enough on its own. Some of the songs he played were arrangements of his vocal versions, other were brand new. It was fantastic. [fuzzyblu]And speaking of Beirut, the rest of the band must be less exhausted than Zach because, unlike me, they were there:
First up was A Hawk and a Hacksaw, a violin/accordian duo who played music that sounded straight out of eastern Europe...which I suppose is inescapable with that perticular instrumentation. Halfway through their last song, a horn sounded in the back of the church (they held this event in a church btw) and suddenly Beirut...an eight-piece band comprised of guitar, drum, accordiant, clarinet, and trumpet, among other things...comes marching down the aisle to join the two performers in stunning orchestral madness.[cait]Don't worry, Zach was probably home sleeping - this show required no singing. T-Sides has a full review.
The next Wordless Music Series show will most likely take place on January 24th, 2007. It hasn't been 100% confirmed yet, but Charles Spearin (Do Make Say Think, KC Accidental, Broken Social Scene) may be performing. The show after that is 100% confirmed and already on sale. That one features Explosions in the Sky.
Andrew Bird's next two shows are November 24th & 25th in Chicago at Logan Square Auditorium.

All American Indian Center, Wichita
2 Reviews
2 Reviews
The All American Indian Center in Wichita is a great cultural resource for all Americans. The large building is used for indoor events, dances, etc and houses a museum and gift shop. Tuesdays mark lunches of Indian Tacos for Wichitans. During several occasions, the grounds of the Indian Center are full of Native Americans at the Pow-wows. Great culture, not just for the tourists and a proud people show the world their lifestyles both past and present. In the rear of the property, at the confluence of the Big Arkansas and Little Arkansas Rivers stands a wonderful monument to the Native American people designed by Blackbear Bosin--who was a favorite local artist. It is particularly beautiful at sunset and this was captured by my wife, Linda.
This is another picture of our 'Keeper of the Plains' artwork at the confluence of the Big and Little Arkansas rivers.

If you license the Advanced Security Option (an extra cost above and beyond the enterprise edition license), you can use [urhttp://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/options/advanced-security/index-099011.html]Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) to encrypt data at rest or network encryption to encrypt the data between the client and the server. If you don't want to license the Advanced Security Option and you're only concerned about data at rest, you can use the dbms_crypto package to manually encrypt data. That will require that you build your own key management infrastructure, it will require (or at least very strongly encourage) data model changes, and it will be less efficient than TDE. But it saves on licensing costs.

Both the Oneida and Vernon Verona Sherrill wrestling teams managed season-opening wins against Tri-Valley League foes
before meeting head-to-head this Wednesday night.
In the Indians' case, it proved tougher, but it never trailed in last Wednesday night's meet against New Hartford and posted a 42-23 victory over the Spartans at the start of a three-way meet also involving Mohawk.
They started the meet at 189 pounds, but Oneida head coach Jim Dilorio decided to move Carl Finch up to 215 to face Pat Parker. The move paid off, as Finch pinned Parker in 1:23 and Oneida was on its way.
Nick Hopkins had the next key win, at 112 pounds, blanking Brandon Delmonte in a tough 2-0 decision, and the two sides continued to trade wins as Joe Casella (125 pounds) emerged to pin Trey Lohr in 1:20, and Matt Fisher (135 pounds) claimed a forfeit.
Oneida was down, 23-21, but it won by claiming each of the last four matches, two by forfeits to Connor Lomanco (152 pounds) and Jake Straczuk (160 pounds).
Lon Palmer began the late surge, at 145 pounds, keeping the Spartans' Chris Broccoli off the board in a 4-0 shutout. Tyler Miller closed out the meet at 171 pounds by winning over Marshal Cominski due to injury default.
In a complete turnaround, though, Oneida lost to Mohawk 48-19, only getting three wins on the mat. Casella pinned D.J. Orillo in 2:25, while Fisher earned a 9-3 decision over Kyle LeBarge and Miller blanked Travis Herringshaw 9-0. Hopkins won with a forfeit.
As this went on, VVS had ripped Camden 51-15 in its season opener.
Dylan Kavanaugh, the 2009 Section III Division II champion at 96 pounds, moved up to 112 pounds and beat Natalia McCormick 12-1, and Joe Tiller (130 pounds) got a crucial three points by edging Tom Confer 9-8.

A 4-year-old Indonesian boy has died from bird flu, bringing the death toll to 160 in the country hardest-hit by the deadly virus, a health official said Tuesday. While the H5N1 bird flu virus has killed relatively few people, scientists have been closely monitoring it for its potential to mutate and affect humans worldwide. Last week, Kusriastuti said a form of the H5N1 virus not previously detected in Indonesia had killed hundreds of thousands of ducks on the main island of Java. The type of virus has been found circulating in a number of other countries and does not indicate any change that makes humans more susceptible. The new form of the virus is believed to have entered Indonesia through imported ducks, but Kusriastuti said it's also possible it may have evolved on its own from existing strains.
Agreed. Must ban migratory birds now. Think of the children. Seriously though. H5N1 does seem to be mutating, I just wonder if it has mutated enough yet?

Players from both the Giants and the Cardinals will share testimonies about how faith has played a role in their personal and professional lives. Also, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to The Salvation Army. Tickets may also be purchased for a donation to clients of The Salvation Army who have never been to a Giants game.

Hands-on: VideoGIF for Mac
updated 09:32 pm EDT, Fri March 21, 2014
VideoGIF for Mac makes it easy to create your own custom GIFs
GIFs. You see them everywhere on the Net, but putting them together in the past has usually involved a little Photoshop know-how or skill with another similar type of application. VideoGIF for Mac, by Pearl Mountain aims to make the process simpler and less expensive. We have had the opportunity to get some hands-on time with the app, which has recently gone live on the Mac App Store and have been impressed with how easy and how much fun it is to use.
You start by selecting a previously shot video file, taken with a smartphone or movie camera, but ideally in an MP4 file type. You can also shoot a video from directly within the app using your Mac's webcam. You don't need to worry about how long the footage is as it can be readily trimmed within the application to any length that you choose; however, keeping in mind that the most effective GIFs are often short, you might want to trim it down to less than 30 secs. VideoGIF also gives you the option to adjust the speed of the GIF using real-time previews, and even reverse the order of the footage.
Customizing your GIF is also very simple and intuitive. You can easily insert and overlay text on your GIF and crop it to your preferred size, just as you would in a photo editing app. This can be done according to ratios, custom settings, or by dragging the handles to manually crop by eye. VideoGIF also makes it simple to select from one of a several built-in filters (Vintage, Sepia, Black and White among others), while also giving you the option to fine tune settings including, saturation, hue and exposure and contrast.
When you are happy with your result, you can select the quality of the GIF output and just press 'Create GIF' to generate your .GIF file automatically. You can save the file in Finder, or share it directly to Tumblr, in an email or via iMessage. Facebook sharing is also an option.
We really like VideoGIF. It has a traditional Mac OS X look and feel, while Pearl Mountain has a very good track record of producing solid applications for Mac. It is compatible with Macs running Mac OS X 10.7 or later and is fully compatible with Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks. It is currently on sale for $4.99 after which it will revert to its regular price of $19.90.

Meet Nate Meese's Lips & Teeth We don't mean to give Nate Meese a big wet smooch, really, but he has a new mouth-centric band.
Masters of the electronic hustle, ManCub, have chopped up and screwed Snake Rattle Rattle Snake's single "NOPD" and turned it into a ready-for-dance-floor track.
Slim Cessna has compiled two lists of rare recordings that are available for download over here. We're talking the '80s material recorded on a tape recorder kind of rare.
Oh, Starling wishes you a Merry Christmas Oh, Starling has teamed up again to release a holiday-inspired EP,"Noel," available for sale here. This year's EP is the second in two years from the enchanting twosome celebrating the holiday season ("Joy" was released last year).
Celine Dion serenades the Anschutz family Denverites have a habit of slipping out of events early, either to avoid the crush at coat check or the parking garage.
Reverb wants to make sure that not every party you attend this Christmas season is a boring office occasion where you get to see Sally from accounting getting all kinds of tipsy or Bill from receivables making a pass at somebody's wife.
New Kevin Costner Suicide Pact The hazy tranquility spell that the music from the Kevin Costner Suicide Pact casts is reminiscent of my Ambien-infused nights that result in a string of lucid dreams.
Peter Hook took to his blog about his most recent U.S. tour which saw the Joy Division/New Order bassist at the Bluebird Theater this past September performing the Joy Division masterpiece "Unknown Pleasures" (read Reverb's review of the show here).
DeVotchKa is used to making couples swoon on Valentine's Day. However, according to their FB page, the swooning will kick into overdrive with the announcement that the Colorado Symphony Orchestra will be accompanying them on stage in a few months.
Let's be real. When somebody says that they want to keep the "holiday pounds" off, they typically end up gaining more weight. Think about the seconds or thirds of the pecan pie for dessert with some eggnog.
Reverb was first to report that Tennis is working with half of the Black Keys on its forthcoming album, and even juicier news has come our way.
MJB's new album, "My Life II... The Journey Continues (Act 1)," has a collaboration on seven out of the fifteen tracks. The R&B songstress has chosen to cover "Need Someone to Love You" from Denver troubadour, Matt Morris.
British rag Q magazine is celebrating its quarter century in style. To commemorate the joyous occasion, the publication will be releasing a tribute to U2's massive album celebrating a 20 year anniversary, "Achtung Baby," that will include the Fray rubbing elbows with Nine Inch Nails and the Killers, to name a few.
Get your skis ready, Snow Ball music festival is back The inaugural Snow Ball music festival hit the slopes in grand style with the likes of the Flaming Lips and Pretty Lights earlier this year (Reverb captured the weekend here) and 2012 is looking like it's going to be BIG.
There might be reason to listen to the radio after all... Things have been kind of boring on the radio for a while. Unless you shell out for satellite or strictly use your phone as your jukebox, I'm sure you can attest to the homogeny on the Denver radio airwaves.
I nearly choked on my chaw this morning while riding Zorro (my horse) to the office this mornin' while listening to "Keep Time," the rockin' new track that Fader premiered yesterday from Gauntlet Hair off of their S/T album for Dead Oceans October 18.
GOLDRUSH is coming up this Friday and Saturday, and Reverb wants to put some tickets in your hands. Sign up below to win a pair.
Pretty Lights finished his victory lap at Red Rocks and the Fillmore a couple of weeks ago (check out our Red Rocks review here). In case you missed those shows, check out his video from both dates soundtracked by his own Led Zeppelin remix that you can download over here.
I went through a Phish phase when I was younger. My email at the time was email@example.com, well you know, because "Chalkdust Torture," was my jam, man!
If you don't know, now you Knew According to the Knew's Twitter feed, it seems like the guys are hard at work on a new album and Reverb wanted a progress report from the quartet.

8th-grader's art on display in Carnegie Museum
A Mt. Lebanon student's artwork is in the Carnegie Museum of Art in Oakland. It is part of a Christmas tree display in the Hall of Architecture.
Mellon Middle School eighth-grader Elena Redmond spent much of her first semester of school making a 2-foot-tall, foam-and-wood replica of the Fort Pitt Blockhouse for the display, which highlights centuries of architecture and innovation at the World's Fairs.
"I thought there were a lot of adults who could have (made the replica) who were artists, but then I thought, 'Wouldn't it be wonderful if we had one of our students do it?" said Sarah Cannon, a member of the Pittsburgh Daughters of the American Revolution and board member of the Fort Pitt Society.
She and Mernie Berger of the Carnegie Women's Committee reached out to Cannon's daughter, school board member Josephine Posti, who in turn talked to art teachers and found Elena Redmond.
"I took probably two periods every day to work on it — my break period, my art class, many lunches, and lots of time before and after school," said Redmond, 14. "We were still working on it for the four seconds just before we took it to Mrs. Berger."
The Blockhouse — or rather, a full-scale replica of it — was represented in the 1926 Sesquicentennial Fair in Philadelphia as part of the Pittsburgh display.
Working from photographs, brochures and field notes taken by the DAR, Redmond built her own replica from a wooden frame, walls and bricks made of foam board, stones made from hot glue and shingles made from thin strips of balsa wood.
She cut each brick from foam board and painted them to give them a brick-like texture, and she shaped each stone of the foundation from hot glue, despite a balky glue gun.
"I have so many burns from the hot glue," Redmond said.
To make sure the proportions were right for the pentagonal building, she and Mellon art teacher Phil Hessler took photos for a math teacher, who helped them devise the proper scale and measurements.
After turning the replica over to Berger and the museum, Redmond got to attend the grand opening party for the exhibit in the Hall of Architecture: Seven trees, each standing over 20 feet tall and decorated with a different World's Fair theme, as part of the Carnegie's ongoing exhibit, "Inventing the Modern World: Decorative Arts at the World's Fairs, 1851-1939."
"It was kind of intimidating, especially when I don't think I'd seen my artwork displayed outside of school before," Redmond said. "It was pretty crazy ... I plan to go back after the Christmas break with my dad."
