Cincinnati is not known as an Industrial music destination. Unlike San Francisco in the late '70s, Chicago in the mid-'80s and Cleveland in the early '90s, the Queen City has never really enjoyed a love affair with the ever-morphing genre of all things dark, mechanical and dingy-sounding.
Ilan Kaim is the man who intends to change that.
The Hank Williams family Country music legacy is fairly remarkable when you consider how three generations of men have built up audiences that would likely stand aghast at one another. Hank Williams, Sr., is a founding father of Country and Honky Tonk Music as we know it and, rightfully so, a certified historical figure, institutionally and critically bestowed with all the respect due our revered cultural heroes by the Time-Life crowd.
Last night at Riverbend, I finished off some personal business for my 12-year-old self. I finally got to see Lita Ford sing "Kiss Me Deadly" live on stage, hear Poison play "Nothing But a Good Time" and catch Def Leppard perform "Pour Some Sugar on Me," live and in person, all on one hot evening by the river.
My parents believed that I was not old enough back in 1987 to make all of these dreams come true, but now my older self is able to make these types of things happen.
Def Leppard has been entertaining international audiences with their strong British sound for the better part of 30 years. They have provided American audiences with Rock anthems that have fired up arenas, like "Pour Some Sugar on Me" and "Animal." Over the years they have put out 12 albums, including their latest offering from last year Mirrorball: Live and More. The band is among the upper echelon of Rock acts that found success, continuity and growing support through the eras of fans.
CityBeat caught up with guitarist Phil Collen to discuss the band's continued success before the Riverbend show last night. We discussed why the band is still able to keep it up after so long and what inspires him personally in his musical voyage.
CityBeat: What do you think the secret to the band's longevity is? I just read this morning that Van Halen just cancelled the rest of their tour. Why have you guys been able to stay together for so long?
Phil Collen: I think our motivation is very different from Van Halen's. They broke up a while ago. They actually didn't get off. We've actually experienced super-super highs, diamond albums, multi-platinum sell-out tours and all that with really bad lows, like Steve dying and Rick losing his arm.
I think we have been together more consistently than most families. We leave home for 18 months. I have been in the band for 30 years. It's just that (it) really makes a difference if you can relate to each other on very much a personal level. You have almost a private little clique, an elite club only you can relate to.
I tell you, we have always been good. We have never gone away. We have never split up. We have never done reunions and I think that is the trick. If you have to do a reunion, I always ask "Why did you split up in the first place?" I think we still have got more to prove. We still have songs to write, great albums to make. It's a whole new day, a whole new digital age, everything is changing, whole new sets of fans. It never really stops. There is always ambition there, and there is always plenty of stuff to do. If you really want to share your work, that's one of the first things you do in the first place. You get to express your art, it's an artistic release and the other thing is you actually share it with other people. We are still doing that.
CB: I know you guys have been talking about writing and wanting to release new music. What is the band's writing process?
PC: It is more difficult than it used to be. I think we have gone through every different variation. We have gone through a time when one person writes the song, one person comes up with an idea and someone finishes it off or someone has an idea or we just play on each other's songs. That's what Queen ended up doing.
We have done every different variation of that. The best stuff I think we have done was when Mutt Lange was involved and just the way he approached it. He had a lot more experience than us and just brought a whole bunch of things to the table. Again, it is very different, there are a couple things I am putting together that are almost finished and then I usually play them for someone else in the band and put together an idea for them and we just take it from there. That's really how it works. It's not rocket science and every song starts in a different way.
I think the most inspiring song is when you have a title and that's all you got and the rest kind of writes itself around it. I have another band Man Raze and same deal with that. We actually wrote a couple songs for a movie that was The Showdown, which was about superbikes racing. Once I had the whole story I came up with the idea, "Take on the World" — it was racing and stuff, and the song wrote itself.
So it is very inspiring to start with a title or at least an idea and then you just color in by numbers almost. It can come from a million different places and that is one of the wonderful things about being an artist really.
CB: Do you have any regrets over the years?
PC: There are loads of things that we'd do differently obviously. That is the whole plan. You experience stuff and you don't make the same mistakes again, hopefully, whether it's driving, old relationships or whatever. You are always on this learning curve which is a different level than the past.
Yeah, you know, not really — (I don't have any) regrets, not even slightly. I love where I am right now and that is the happiest person in the world. I am having a great time. It's really cool. None at all really.
CB: What is your craziest fan story over the years?
PC: There have been a bunch of crazy fan stories. I have always found the weirdest ones are when people get my face tattooed on their body. I remember the first time this happened years ago, this Italian girl said, "I'm going to get you tattooed on me." I said, "No, no, no, no, have you told your parents?" And she said, "No, but they'll be OK." She got this tattoo done and over the years we have now seen this millions of times, you know, people show their tattoos of our likeness or face on their arm or back or wherever it is. I always try to discourage it because it is a tattoo. I have one tattoo and it is my wife's name and she has my name tattooed on her and that's it. I was 52 when I got that.
CB: When you've written songs in the past over the years, did you guys know when you had a hit on your hands?
PC: Some of them, but other songs you think you have a hit and they disappear. You can never really tell. It depends on the environment of the moment. Back then it would be radio. Right now, everything is about celebrity and fame and TV. It is a different one to judge. It is about getting out there. If you get something in a movie, it has more of a chance than something played on the radio. It has changed a lot. The more the music business has turned more into an industry than art, it becomes more difficult to predict (which songs will catch on).
CB: What is the best guitar solo of all time?
PC: I couldn't put it down for one. There are a few — and it is obviously my opinion — that (have) really inspired me. A few by David Bowie. There are a few Hendrix ones — "Fire" by Jimi Hendrix. There is a great guitar solo on a song "Midnight at the Oasis" by Maria Muldaur, a song from the '70s (that) took me ages to figure out, then I realized there were more than one guitar doing it. There are millions of them that really inspire. I could go on all day but (there's) not one in any particular — all of those.
CB: Any current music you are listening to that you find inspiring?
PC: Yeah, my favorite artist is Skrillex. I am really into dance and Techno music, love it, Dubstep especially. I just think what Skrillex is doing sounds like Heavy Metal without guitars and Hip Hop without words. That's what I get out of it. It is just very different. It is very pure. I love it.
(I listen to) just different things; I listen to everything. I listen to Jazz or Blues, Hip Hop, Metal, Rock, whatever Pop song, right across the board. It's all amazing and stuff to draw on really.
Greg Dulli needs little introduction in these parts, but for those who are somehow not familiar, the now-46-year-old Hamilton native came up as frontman for The Afghan Whigs in late 1980s and exploded out of the local scene via a string of visceral, dark-hued albums (the best of which, 1993's Gentlemen, continues to grow in stature) that were equally influenced by Husker Du, Prince and moody, noir-infested crime movies. Dulli's post-Whigs output has been just as compelling, including releases by The Twilight Singers, his main project. The band performs Monday at Newport's Southgate House.
The second round of announcements for this year's MidPoint Music Festival lineup was featured in this week's issue of CityBeat, on streets now. For those outside of Greater Cincinnati (or you lazy folks who don't want to walk to pick up a newspaper), here's the official press release:
For Immediate Release
Artist Announcement "Round 2" for MPMF.13
Original Pioneer Shuggie Otis to headline Washington ParkOpening Night
Cincinnati, Ohio, May 29, 2013 —Last month, after almost 40 years, Shuggie Otis, released a new album.
In September, MidPoint Music Festival (MPMF.13) will present Otis, one of the most mysterious figures in pop music history, as this year's original pioneer. He will headline in Washington Park opening night with Cody ChesnuTT.
According to the New York Times (NYT), Otis's album, "Wings of Love" (Epic/Legacy), which includes 14 previously unreleased tracks, is being packaged a alongside a reissue of his previous and most celebrated recording, "Inspiration Information," from 1974.
"MPMF has always been known for the pioneering music we showcase, but I am especially excited and proud to present Shuggie Otis," said Dan McCabe, artistic director of MPMF.13. "Unlike other original pioneers presented at past MPMFs like Ralph Stanley, Booker T. and Van Dyke Parks, Shuggie's impact is only just now coming to light. Shuggie Otis speaks directly to the MPMF artist who often sacrifices success and notoriety for their art."
On May 3, the first 13 artists were announced for the twelfth edition of the downtown Cincinnati festival happening September 26-28, 2013. Today, 14 additional artists are being released:
SHUGGIE OTIS: "He's the unsung hero of blues and funk. His music is so potent that it only blossomed 30 years after it was first released." - Questlove
"…a missing link between Sly, Jimi, Stevie, Prince and Frank Ocean." -Rolling Stone
KURT VILE: One of Coachella 2013's 10 Must See Acts – Rolling Stone
"Wakin on a Pretty Daze" is a SPIN essential and a real testament to putting a great deal of effort into making something feel effortless." - SPIN
YOUTH LAGOON: "8.7 / BEST NEW MUSIC. Wondrous Bughouse looks inward and discovers the endless possibilities of imagination and introspection." -Pitchfork
ON AN ON: Broke new ground on their latest recording with accomplished producer Dave Newfeld (Broken Social Scene, Super Furry Animals, Los Campesinos!)
BATHS: Just yesterday (May 28, 2013) second album Obsidian named "Best New Music" by Pitchfork. Debut album Cerulean, blurs the line between post-modern pop and the LA beat scene and earned "Best Of" recognition from Pitchfork & The Onion's A.V. Club.
MURDER BY DEATH: "They've cultivated a cult-like fan base via their unique sound, which mingles elements of country, indie rock and alternative music into collections of songs that are the sonic equivalent of 'No Country For Old Men.'"— PureVolume
BLEACHED: "…originally found cult status with their punk band Mika Miko. It's the ole "they've cleaned up, but are still same degenerates you know and love" trick. . – The Village Voice
SATURDAY LOOKS GOOD TO ME: The jubilant fun of Motown and Northern soul with a decidedly indie approach.
SAN FERMIN: A pastiche of post-rock, chamber-pop and contemporary classical composition.
SECRET COLOURS: Revel in being the bastard seed of the '60s psychedelia and '90s Britpop bloodlines.
NAT BALDWIN: Double bassist/singer-songwriter Nat Baldwin's spent years as the Dirty Projectors bassist and former disciple of free jazz legend Anthony Braxton.
WILD CUB: "…[Wild Cub's] brand of darkly-tinged new wave recalls elements of the youthful abandon of John Hughes soundtracks, the baleful allure of Greg Dulli, and the clockwork electronics of New Order's middle period." – KEXP
THE SHILOHS: The Vancouver foursome released full-length debut, So Wild earlier this year.
BIRDS OF CHICAGO: "They project organic gospel, hillbilly, folk and soul elements that bridge traditional and modern approaches." – Chicago Tribune

MidPoint Music Festival continues its 12-year tradition as the region's frontline of music exploration, featuring an impressive and diverse lineup. Music fans everywhere flock to Cincinnati in September to be a part of this long running music event that started in Over-the-Rhine (OTR), the Cincinnati neighborhood that's as cutting edge as the festival itself.
OTR remains a pivotal location, home to a number of MPMF.13 stages. OTR is on the National Register of Historic Places and was voted best Cincinnati Neighborhood in CityBeat's Best of Cincinnati publication in 2011 and 2012. Since 2004 more than $255 million has been invested in the revitalization of OTR, including the $48 million renovation of Washington Park, which includes an outdoor music stage that serves as one of MPMF's main stages.

About MPMF
Cincinnati's MidPoint Music Festival has developed a reputation as the place to find your new favorite band. MidPoint's embrace of emerging artists reflects the same pioneering ethic of Cincinnati's celebrated music history and its present day music-makers. The MPMF storyline continues to be diverse, dynamic and adventurous. Stay up to date at MPMF.com, like its official Facebook page, or by following the festival on Twitter.
MPMF.13 is made possible thanks to the generous support of its sponsors, including Dewey's Pizza and Biore.
It's funny that The Fray are called what they're called, because they hardly ever leave any loose threads or ragged edges — whether on their perfectly-produced, radio-friendly songs or live in concert. The piano rock band is so harmless and clean-cut that they probably couldn't hurt a fly if their lives depended on it.
It's no surprise, then, that their concert at PNC Pavilion Monday night, opened by Richard Swift and alt-rock band Jack's Mannequin, felt like a quintessentially American outdoor summer party: laid-back, pleasant and totally innocuous.
At the City & Colour concert at Bogart's a while back, I watched as a woman in the front row texted her way through both of the great opening acts. I glanced around and discovered that she wasn't the only one. I figured everyone would surely stop when Dallas Green and the rest of C&C took to the stage. Three songs in and the crowd was still lit up by glowing phones.
Everywhere I looked people were texting, tweeting, facebooking or recording the night away. Often, both members of a couple would be recording the same song. As if the iPhone 12 inches to the left might just capture something different from theirs. I watched as a group of friends passed around a cell phone with a message from another friend who, I assume, wasn't present (or maybe they were just three feet over). Meanwhile, the band played on.
This left me disappointed in humanity.

A 45-year-old man with a history of mental-health and addiction issues has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder in connection with the deaths of his mother and stepfather in Seattle's South Park neighborhood last week.
Richard Parenteau Jr., 45, is alleged to have killed his mother and stepfather after his mother gave him an ultimatum about moving out of the family's South Park home, prosecutors wrote in charging papers filed Wednesday in King County Superior Court.
According to the charging documents, a neighbor heard an argument July 17 in which the mother, 70-year-old Linda Parenteau, was telling her son he had to move out by September.
The neighbor was able to hear because the windows were open, prosecutors said.
- Seattle's vanishing black community
- Boeing tankers will be delivered to Air Force late — and incomplete
- Bellevue School District seeks to fire football coach Goncharoff over scandal
- A six-pack of observations from Seahawks' OTAs: Justin Britt, Alex Collins, Tharold Simon and more
- Paul Allen ends KEXP's yearslong fundraising drive with $500,000 donation

The same neighbor later told police that the next day he saw Richard Parenteau cleaning out the back of his stepfather's van and also noticed that the windows of the house had been covered with blankets, prosecutors said.
Parenteau told the neighbor his mother and her husband had gone on vacation, prosecutors wrote.
On Saturday, police were called to a report of a body found at a small park near Eighth Avenue South and South Portland Street on the Duwamish Waterway. Police identified the victim as Parenteau's stepfather, David Wells, 69.
Based on injuries to the head, detectives determined Wells had been killed elsewhere, and crime-scene investigators found a blood trail that extended "just two short blocks," the charging documents say.
After identifying Wells, detectives went to his house in the 700 block of South Southern Street, which is five blocks south of where the body was found, according to prosecutors.
Detectives obtained a search warrant for the home and found Parenteau inside, the statement says.
While detectives were serving the search warrant, a second person called 911 to report finding a woman's body under the First Avenue South bridge, according to prosecutors.
The victim was identified as Linda Parenteau, prosecutors said.
According to charging documents, Wells died of blunt-force injuries to the head and Linda Parenteau also suffered head wounds but died of asphyxiation from having a large wad of toilet paper stuffed down her throat.
Police found an ax handle covered with blood in the home and the head of the ax behind the front passenger seat in Wells' van, prosecutors said.
According to prosecutors, Richard Parenteau Jr. has had multiple contacts with police over the last two years and had been taken in for involuntary mental-health commitment. His mother told police her son had mental-health issues and had a history of using OxyContin and methamphetamines, prosecutors said.
In their request for a high bail, prosecutors said Parenteau had made written threats to kill family members and police, and also that he planned to cut himself and bleed on his neighbor's children and "kill the whole town by himself."
Parenteau is being held in the King County Jail on $5 million bail. His arraignment is scheduled for Aug. 6.

One of the few outright large-scale success stories of the internet age, along with Facebook, Google and YouPorn, are retail giants Amazon, who've gone from a bookstore to selling... well, just about everything, with a still-intimidating marketshare for literature, both real and e-books. So the next step on the route to world domination? Movie production.
As the New York Times reports, the company yesterday unveiled Amazon Studios, a partnership with Warner Bros, which they promise will form a new way of developing and releasing films. The new venture's site is currently accepting submissions for both screenplays and full-length completed films, with monthly prizes of $100,000 for the best film, and $20,000 for the best scripts, with annual awards of $1,000,000 for films and $100,0000 for screenplays also in the works.
The idea is to work towards theatrically releasing full-budget films from talent nurtured through the scheme, which Warners will have right of first refusal on. An original script released through the scheme will net a filmmaker or writer £200,000, with a $400,000 bonus if the film makes over $60 million at the box office.
On the one hand, it's going to be a boon for struggling writers and directors, who'll be able to expose their work to much wider audiences, and there's the possibility that it might launch exciting new talent to the heights. But at the same time, the studio system's been in place for a reason -- we don't envy Amazon's script-readers wading through the mountains of crap that they're about to be sent.
Furthermore, this doesn't sound like it's going to be entirely creatively-led: the new company's director Frank Price says that it'll be more efficient, by "introducing the test-screening process from the very beginning," a phrase that we imagine is sending veteran filmmakers into shudders of terror. While test-screening is an important tool, by pushing it to the forefront of the process, it risks shutting out anything without mass audience appeal.
Either way, it's an interesting experiment, but one that we're highly skeptical of, particularly considering that other sites have attempted similar moves in the past. But with the Times suggesting that Netflix may be unveiling a similar scheme soon, anyone with an unfinished screenplay might want to dust it off and start clicking.

|Nebraska Timeline
Which baby is the best?
By the Nebraska State Historical Society
Baby shows were once a staple of state and local fairs and church festivals in Nebraska. Even private businesses hosted them to draw paying customers into their stores. Reports of such events, which often included the awarding of cash or other prizes to competing youngsters and their mothers, can be found in newspapers from both large and small towns.

Fast and Easy School Lunches That Will Actually Get Eaten.
By Michelle Stern
Our fishing expedition on
- Ask your kids what they will enjoy. Remember that if they don't like certain foods at home, they won't like them at school either!
- Ask for their input before loading their lunch box. Just because they liked something today doesn't mean that they will like it again tomorrow.
- Keep in mind that your children don't have much time to eat…so pack foods in small portions that are easy to eat, so they have time left to play.
- Don't be lured into buying prepackaged lunches, which are high in fat, sugar, salt and calories, are much more expensive, and produce tons of unnecessary garbage.
- Let your child help you select a cool lead-free and reusable lunch bag or lunch box. Pick up a few reusable containers that will fit inside – this will prevent food from leaking and getting smashed, and will help you avoid using disposable items like plastic bags and foil.
- Whenever possible, pack lunches the night before. Why add more stress to your morning routine?
Here are a variety of ideas for some fun and interesting lunches. Don't forget to include fruits or vegetables, protein and whole grains every day.
- Instead of sliced bread, try rice or whole grain crackers, whole wheat pita bread, bagels and tortillas.
- Wrap it Up! Combine a variety of spreads, fillings and wrappers for a sandwich alternative your kids won't forget. For lots of wrap recipes, please visit the Healthy School Lunches page at What's Cooking.
Make Ahead…

Those who know the festal shout
Faith & Inspiration
In Psalm 89:15-16, we are told (with apologies to Barbra Streisand) who the luckiest people in the world are:
"Blessed are the people who know the festal shout, who walk, O Lord, in the light of your face, who exult in your name all the day…." (ESV).
"Blessed are the people who know the joyful sound! They walk, O Lord, in the light of your countenance. In your name they rejoice all day long" (NKJV).
It's easy to read this as a description of some formal Old Testament liturgical worship service. Anyone can give a festal shout on cue. I was in a studio audience where you're told minutes before the show to "applaud loudly." I understand the West Point cadets at the president's recent Afghanistan war speech were ordered to look enthusiastic; the results were mixed.
I think the psalmist meant people who are really excited about Jesus. They can't help themselves sometimes. There are a couple of woman in my church who have tambourines with colored streamers on them, and they dance in the aisle, off to the side. The pastor once told us from the pulpit not to judge another person's worship. He said you never know if someone in the congregation just got delivered from crack cocaine addiction, and he's too happy to stay in the pew.

You have probably read it already, the terrorist that attacked Norway on July 22 with a car bomb and a shooting spree, killing a total of 77 people and wounding about 150 people, have been deemed psychotic and are probably going to spend time in an asylum rather than prison. If he is sentenced to medical care, is is not unlikely that he might be free after 5-7 years, where he will only have to show up at the asylum every day, or a number of times each week.
How is this compared to your country, what would happen to him in your system? Are insane people sentenced to prison just like sane criminals?
What do you think is fair?

Pleading insanity is a "get out of death free card". It works when you kill a small amount of people but the amount of people this guy killed would be an automatic death sentence over here. Realistically anyone who goes on a murder spree is insane anyway.

Not sure why that made me lol so hard.
But I am against insanity pleas. A rabid dog isn't going to stop attacking people just because you put him in a kennel and have a chat with him about how what he did was wrong. Mass murder is mass murder, whether you do it because the voices told you to or because you were bored is irrelevant.
Massacre, you make me look like a rational, moral, kind person.
Massacre - What you've just posted is sick and disturbing...
When Massacre is around, everything is violated... Whether it likes it or not.
Whenever I think of "human resources" Massacre immediately springs to mind.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. - Mississippi State Lady Bulldog tennis fell 4-3 in a closely contested road match against the No. 65 ranked Golden Gophers of the University of Minnesota Friday night.
Doubles play proved to be crucial in the Lady Bulldogs' debut road match of the season. MSU's Alexandra Perper and Naomi Tran paired up to take the first doubles win of the day at the No. 1 position, posting an 8-4 victory against Natalia Pintusava and Paula Rincon-Otero of Minnesota. UM evened the doubles score with an 8-6 win from the Lady Gopher pair of Tereza Brichacova and Doron Muravnik, as they took down Lien Van Geel and Sarai Flores of the Lady Bulldogs at No. 2.
The doubles point was decided in another hard-fought contest on court 3. Minnesota's duo of Jessika Mozia and Yuliana Umanets rallied to defeat MSU's Georgiana Patrasc and Roseline Dion in an 8-6 decision, giving the Lady Gophers an early 1-0 lead.
Singles play began with an early Minnesota win at the No. 4 position as Mozia for the Lady Gophers took down MSU sophomore Petra Ferancova 6-1, 6-3. Minnesota raised their overall lead to 3-0 with a 7-5, 6-2 win for Muravnik on court 6 against MSU's Flores.
Competition was neck-and-neck on the remaining courts, and State appeared it might make a big comeback, but the match was finally clinched by Minnesota with a very tight 6-4, 6-4 victory on court 2 as MSU's Patrasc fell to Brichacova of the Lady Gophers 6-4, 6-4.
Although the match already belonged to Minnesota, the Lady Bulldogs posted victories on all remaining courts beginning with the freshman Van Geel, who posted a 7-6(5), 6-4 win against Minnesota's Aria Lambert at the No. 5 position.
MSU's Tran followed suit with a 6-2, 1-6, 6-1 triumph over Minnesota's Rincon-Otero on court 3. State's Perper completed the night's competition with a solid 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 victory at the top spot against Pintusava for Minnesota.
"It was a heck of a battle and a heartbreaking loss. We had our chances to win the doubles point, but did not capitalize," head coach Daryl Greenan said. "Not getting that point proved to be the difference."
The Lady Bulldogs will be back in action Saturday as they remain in Minnesota to take on the Lady Badgers of Wisconsin in a neutral site match. Updates for Lady Bulldog tennis can be found at hailstate.com or through Twitter (@mstateWT).
