I'm also new to Happy Rhodes' music, tho I have been given some info from greg bossert and urs stafford. I think I need to get *warpaint*, but I'll worry about that later.. (My background in music listening ranges from Victoria Williams to La Monte Young to Band of Susans to Jane Siberry to Nirvana to Tibetan Monks to gregorian chants so...) My newbie questions relate to the birthday list I saw posted.. I wondered how people got on that...I'm not sure how long I'll still be around with my current email address, since I'm going to probably share a non-school account with a friend soon, but I'd still like to know.. Um, regarding the birthdays: I noticed that "Teresa VanDyne" on your list was born on the same day and year as me. (That is about the first time I've noticed that exact combination.) Since I do astrology charts (for free, since I'm studying it) I wondered if Ms. VanDyne might care to email me about what she thinks her personality profile is like, so I could see more about what my birth date is all about; I could also do her chart and email stuff back to her if she tells me her (a) email address, (b) city/country of birth, (c) time of birth as exact as possible, telling am or pm. That doesn't mean I'll have time to do much more than tell the basics stuff right away but maybe later I could study it more...as for the rest of you, I could tell you basic stuff if you tell me the same thing (and I mean BASIC stuff, like what sign the planets were in etc., so you can go to a book and do the rest)... Lastly, I noticed in a posting from METH@delphi.com that there was a recent Throwing Muses show in New York; I would like to know who opened the show, please, if anyone knows. Here in Memphis, Danielle Howe, an up and coming folk singer from South Carolina, was the first of two opening acts a month ago. The second band, Lotion, from NYC was ok...but Ms. Howe was interesting...she has something out on Simple Machines Records and may be putting out something else soon... Simple Machines is Tsunami's label...I wonder if she's the same Danielle Howe who was an experimental theatre actress in Boston just a few years ago...? sorry to babble so long... - --mary m ------------------------------ From: wombat toga party Date: Sun, 28 May 1995 18:12:53 -0400 Subject: Re: questions Mary M sez: >Lastly, I noticed in a posting from METH@delphi.com that there >was a recent Throwing Muses show in New York; I would like to know >who opened the show, please, if anyone knows. we're not sure (well, i'm not sure) who opened for the muses in new york. we saw them in new haven, where the ass ponys started off the evening.

Over the past few weeks, woj and I have seen an obscene amount of live music. Warning -- this one is pretty long! LAURA LOVE AND DOUGIE MACLEAN Town Hall, NYC Friday, April 28, 1995 This show was put together to celebrate the release of two new Putomayo World Music releases, _The Laura Love Collection_ and _The Dougie MacLean Collection_. Performing were, of course, Laura Love and Dougie MacLean. The Laura Love Band came on first, and performed a 30-minute set of high- energy "traditional Afro-Celtic music" mostly from her last two releases, _Pangaea_ and _Helvetica Bold_. The Putomayo collection is comprised of songs from those two albums as well -- interestingly enough, both she and Putomayo completely ignored her first one, _Z Therapy_, no clue why. All three of her albums are available through her own independent record label, Octoroon Biography, which is located in her hometown of Seattle. The Putomayo collection is a great milestone in her career because it's available in the World Music sections of record stores all over the country, and hopefully it will lead to wider distribution of her albums. Laura has an endless supply of energy on stage -- she bounces up and down and dances all around, singing and playing her big red bass guitar all the while. I don't know where it all comes from! She's accompanied by an excellent guitarist on one side and a percussionist/backing vocalist on the other, and together the trio manages to make more music than should be coming out of just three instruments. It's mostly pretty bouncy fare, and Laura's voice ranges from the sweet to the downright nasal, but it's all very listen- able and the beat is infectious. She really made a good impression on the sparse crowd. Next came Dougie MacLean and his band, literally straight off the plane from Scotland. Dougie was fighting a bad case of the flu, but he still managed to put on a great show. He is a former member of the bands Silly Wizard and (I think) Planxty, but has been on his own for a long time now, releasing albums on his own label, Dunkeld Records. He is a fierce advocate of Scottish independence from Great Britain, which is plainly evident in songs like "Caledonia" and "Destiny Stone" and in the stories he tells in between songs. He plays guitar, fiddle, and digeridoo (!), though that night he had a hard time dealing with the didg because he was so stuffed up -- the poor guy almost passed out! He was accompanied by a guitarist, bassist, keyboardist, drummer and kid who looked so much like him it had to be his son on guitar and bodhran. The music is a deft blend of traditional Celtic and modern folk, and Dougie's light tenor voice compliments it well. His latest album on Dunkeld is called _Marching Mystery_, and it's excellent -- I haven't found a copy of the Puto- mayo collection yet but plan to pick it up, since it has a lot of stuff on it that is really hard to find over here. [I had tickets to see Altan at Town Hall on May 12th, but traffic intervened. woj and Mike Curry made it though, so I'll let them post about it if they're so inclined...] THROWING MUSES Toad's Place, New Haven, CT Tuesday, May 16, 1995 What can I say, these guys are excellent. (Can't say as much for their opening act, Ass Ponys, though -- BORing!) They came out on stage, started right in without preamble, and stopped to swig water and briefly retune four times before the end of the show. Each song was more intensely delivered than the last, a constant frontal assault that just wouldn't die. I kept waiting for the drummer to have a stroke or a massive coronary or something, but he just kept going and going and going... The set list spanned the catalog, of course emphasizing _University_ but not as much as I'd expected. woj can be more specific about song titles than I can, since I confess I'm not that familiar with actual names of the songs, I just know I've heard them before and I like them a lot. :) Kristin was looking and sounding good -- man, she really doesn't get the credit she deserves for being a kickass guitarist, does she? (I'll leave out the part about getting rear-ended on the way home by an uninsur- ed, unregistered vehicle that took off before the police showed up. Didn't diminish my memory of the show in the least. :P) SUDDENLY, TAMMY! Irving Plaza, NYC Thursday, May 18, 1995 For some unexplained reason they're opening for the Wolfgang Press, which I hope explains the pretentiousness level of the people in the audience. Still, there were a bunch of people there who, like us, had come out just to see S,T! and those who hadn't were converted before their set was over. S,T!'s songs are perfect pop numbers, and the unorthodox combination of piano/bass/drums sans guitar *works*. Beth Sorrentino reminds me very much of young Natalie Merchant, but I couldn't tell you why. She certainly doesn't sound anything like her, with her childlike voice that manages not to be annoying. You just can't help but bounce around like a silly person to their music. The band looked like they were having a great time up there, and they seemed genuinely taken aback by the enthusiastic response they received. We didn't stick around to talk to them afterwards, though they certainly made themselves available. Maybe next time. REQUIRED LISTENING The Bottom Line, NYC Friday, May 19, 1995 This was the fifth in the series sponsored by WFUV and The Bottom Line (we all remember Happy's appearance at the second one :). woj, Mike Curry, Jeff Wasilko and I were there plenty early, and got a table right smack up front. First off were Acoustic Junction, a bunch of guys from all over the country who got together in Boulder, CO and basically independently achieved Dave Matthews Band without really trying. Lots of flannel and silly facial hair. The music wasn't bad, but it all sounded the same after a few songs. I don't regret having seen them, but I wouldn't go out of my way to see them again. Next up came Harte Rouge, a seven-member ensemble consisting of French- Canadian siblings from Saskatoon. Apparently they're pretty big up north of the border (any Canadian 'philes care to comment?), and just put out their first English-language album. They were a bit too Top-40 for my tastes, but the sisters all had great voices, and the musicianship wasn't too bad, either. Jeff picked up their album -- anything to say about their studio stuff, Jeff? After intermission came the two reasons we were there: Dar Williams and The Nields. Dar Williams was brilliant, not to mention hysterically funny - I gather she's always like that, but the fact that her parents were in the audience may have had something to do with it, too. She did a few new songs, including one about PTA vigilantes out to get a sex offender in the community that had me rolling on the floor, as well as "The Babysitter's Here" and, of course, "When I Was A Boy". It was glaringly obvious that everyone else in the house was there to see her too, and the response was tremendous. I *am* going to see her do a full set soon! The Nields were brilliant, as usual. They did a couple of new ones that didn't really catch with me, but I'm sure a few more listens would do it, no problem. They opened with "Christopher Columbus" and closed with "James", and I was happy. The funnies thing was, during intermission when they were setting up their equipment Nerissa saw me and waved! I think she must have recognized me from their in-store show at Border's Books in CT last month, before which I almost killed her as I literally ran full into her as she was coming out of the bathroom while I was going in. :} (I did talk to her for a while afterwards, but... :) The highlight of the evening came at the very end, after The Nields had left the stage. Rita Houston, WFUV DJ and host of the series came out to the mike to thank everyone for coming and to announce the next Required Listening lineup, but before she could get very far the house announcer came over the PA system and announced that a few friends of hers had something for her, and would she please go into the audience for a minute? Then every musician who had performed that night came back out, The Nields picked up their instruments, and they all launched into a jam of The Beatles' "Lovely Rita" that I *really* wish I had on tape!!! It was incredible. Wonderful, fun show that was. I really want to see Dar Williams open for The Nields, so they can do "Alleluia" and "Merry Christmas, Mr. Jones" together live if nothing else (I was kind of hoping they would sieze the opportunity to do it that night, but alas). THE INNOCENCE MISSION Fez, NYC Tuesday, May 23, 1995 Finally, we got to see Innocence Mission without them cancelling out on us! They did an hour-long set which began with "Surreal" and covered their first two albums ("Wonder of Birds", "Curious", "Umbrella", "And Hiding Away", etc.) as well as a large chunk of their new one, _Glow_ and a really neat cover of "Both Sides Now". I'm not sure what to expect from the new album, since _Umbrella_ really disappointed me yet I liked the songs from it they did live a lot. We'll just have to see! :) There were a *lot* of people there. Obviously much more than they had been expecting, since Fez is a tiny place (not to mention more than half of the tables were reserved for A&M squids, and you betcha they were the tables from which you could see the stage, too! :P). Karen Peris kept looking out at the audience and grinning. The band seemed to be enjoying themselves, and they really did put on a good show. There was no in-between song patter, though, so I don't know the names of any of the new songs. Jill Sobule had originally been scheduled to open, but then she got a Big MTV Video and got replaced by The Candy Butchers, a drummer and some local guy who looked just like the slimy cab driver dude on those eMpTV promos and played marginally interesting guitar-based short songs. Nothing special, though I think footah and woj were interested by the end of it. :) MELISSA FERRICK Maxwell's, Hoboken, NJ Friday, May 26, 1995 Friday morning whilst driving to work I heard it mentioned in passing on WFUV that Melissa Ferrick would be performing at Maxwell's that night. woj and I decided to see how awake we were around 9:30 and go if we felt up to it. We weren't exactly awake after X-Files was over, but decided to go anyway. The announcement I'd heard said she was going on at 10:45, but when we got there it turned out she was on at 11:45, so we grabbed a late dinner and caffeine, and joined the 18 other people in the back room for her set. Well, Ethan, you'll be happy to know that I am now officially a convert. :) Melissa and Marika presented us with 45 minutes of great music, and it was really too bad that there was hardly anybody there. I didn't recognize the songs from _Massive Blur_ (which we listened to this morning, and while I wasn't as turned off as I had been in the past, it still didn't do too much for me), and the live versions of the songs she did from _Willing To Wait_ were incredible, especially the title track, which ended the set on a very loud note. :) Unfortunately there was no encore, so I didn't have a chance to request "The Atlantic Song"... next time! She'll be at Fez on June 5, and I think we're going. Afterwards we talked to them and I bought a cd, which Melissa duly signed. She was utterly shocked to hear that I had been hearing the album on the radio, and had never heard of WFUV. I gave her their number and the name of the Music Director, and left a message on the station's answering machine when I got home warning them that they might be hearing from her soon. woj has 2-1 odds that Melissa Ferrick will be doing an in-studio thing there within the next week, and I hope he's right. :> (I was also amused to discover that Melissa isn't too excited about her first album, either. :) ANNA DOMINO The Knitting Factory, NYC Saturday, May 27, 1995 Thanks to Nick's heads-up, we actually knew about an Anna Domino performance *before* it happened, for once! Thanks, Nick. :) The performance was in the Alterknit Theater (where Emily Bezar peformed when she was there), and it was pretty informal. I'd say there were about 30 people stuffed into the room (including her brother, whom she called upon to bring her her bag full of picks about halfway through :). Anna was accompanied by a (great) dumbek player and a guitarist/banjo player, who strummed his guitar like he was playing the banjo. And Anna played guitar, of course. She performed eight songs (woj can rattle off the titles :), each better than the last. I have no idea if she has an album out or forthcoming or what, but I'll be keeping my eyes open! Her music, I guess, can be most closely compared to Heidi Berry, or at least what we heard last night. It's highly enjoyable stuff, and I was sorry when the set was over. A group called Lazy Boy was scheduled to come on after her, followed by Snake Farm, which was supposed to be Anna Domino plus Lazy Boy. I would have been interested to see that, but woj and I were *really* hungry, so we left to head for our favorite cafe in the Village instead. I'm sure one of these days I'm going to hear great things about Snake Farm and kick myself for bagging out on it, but hey. Sometimes you just gotta eat. :> So there you go -- one month in the concertgoing lives of meth-n-woj. We'll probably be going to see Katell Keineg, Kendra Smith and maybe Melissa Ferrick again in the near future... whee!!! +==========================================================================+ |Meredith Tarr meth@delphi.com| |Boonton, NJ USA finger info at: mtarr@eagle.wesleyan.edu| +==========================================================================+ | "if the truth isn't funny, what good is it? does reality have a duty to | | amuse us? did *anyone* else ever play Paranoia?" - veronica | +==========================================================================+ ------------------------------ From: jeffw@jane.tiac.net (Jeff Wasilko) Date: Sun, 28 May 1995 22:57:44 -0400 (EDT) Subject: Re: a month out on the town THE OLIVE-LOAF VIGILANTE writes: > REQUIRED LISTENING > Next up came Harte Rouge, a seven-member ensemble consisting of French- > Canadian siblings from Saskatoon.

"I'll be youah race-cah drivah..." -- Jewel "Pahrk youah race-cah in Havahad Yahd?" -- Anja [smoe] ------------------------------ From: rishepp@magicnet.net (Rick Sheppard) Date: Mon, 29 May 1995 01:22:25 -0400 Subject: Jewel & Jill Thanks to all the ectophiles who kept mentioning and recommending both Jewel and Jill Sobule! I just finished listening to both of their new albums and found both women to be highly talented and versatile artists. For anyone else out there still waffling over whether or not to buy their albums, I highly recommend you log off immediately and go get them. It's well worth your while. Just some quick comments regarding these two... Does Jewel (who is, might I add, cute as a button) have any other albums besides _Pieces of You_? If so,what are their names and are they readily available? Also, is Jill Sobule's first album, _Things Here Are Different_, available? I found one of her songs, "Too Cool To Fall In Love", on an album of Todd Rundgren-produced songs called _An Elpee's Worth Of Productions_ and realized I had heard it quite a bit on public radio. I just love the sense of symmetry a discovery like that gives a person, don't you? Just my own thoughts on the whole "I Kissed A Girl" discussion. I have been reading most everyones' opinions on the topic, including one person's commentary on how one radio station will only play the song "when the kids won't hear it" (it HAS to be a commercial station.) My answer to that is--PHOOEY! I first heard IKAG at 3:00 in the afternoon with the DJ's intro something like "I don't know what you're going to think of this next song, but..." I found it to be a fun, bouncy little song that covered the subject matter in a very light, tongue-in-cheek manner. Then I found that eMpTyV got a hold of the song, and all of a sudden it was, "Oh, she's gay, right?" Any interest in Jill as an artist was completely overshadowed by the general public's fascination with "controversial" topics. Who gives a toss what sexual orientation the artist is as long as they make music you enjoy? I personally know someone seemingly OBSESSED with knowing the sexual leanings of women artists. Every time he hears of a new woman artist or group he immediately asks "Are they gay?" Mind you, he doesn't even THINK of asking this question if the artist(s) in question are male--which of course is the same mentality in the music business. A song called "I Kissed A Boy" sung by a male artist would probably not get any airplay at all--it's not an "acceptable" form of controversy. This is in a similar vain to the aforementioned radio station who seem to be of the mindset, "Oh, we can play that song, but not when kids may hear it and have their morals corrupted by its light hearted attitude towards homosexuality." These people just don't get it. From what I have read in these digests, ectophiles do. Now that I've sufficiently vented my angst, I would like to add that I haven't heard IKAG too much on eMpTyV et. al. very much in the past few weeks. Now, it may just be because I just haven't been listening enough--I don't exactly go out of my way to listen to commercial radio (patooie!) or the video channels that much. Or maybe--just maybe--IKAG has worn out its controversy potential and is not bland and formulaic enough a song to be kept around. What do YOU say? Feel free to comment, flame, yell, cajole or even change my opinion (if possible or desirable)--any discussion is good for both body and spirit. Until then... Trying to remember when last I kissed a girl, -rs P.S.- If there are any ectophiles out there who listen to WXPN in Philadelphia--please e-mail me and tell me what's being played on the station. I'm SO out of touch...thank you. ------------------------------ From: Vickie the Ectophile Date: Mon, 29 May 1995 08:26:27 -0500 (CDT) Subject: Due South & Sarah again (reminder for Americans) This Friday (June 2nd) the first of the last 3 episodes of Due South will be shown on CBS. The show wasn't picked up for the fall schedule so these might be the last 3 we'll ever see. Boo hoo :-( Anyway...this episode has already been shown in Canada and even though I've avoided reading spoilers on the Due South list, I did catch the fact that 2 Sarah McLachlan songs are featured very promently in this upcoming show. (To the extent that someone commented that...paraphrased... "we didn't just hear Sarah...we were bludgeoned over the head with her." That seemed the gist and I assumed the person didn't much care for Sarah...but I was skimming trying to avoid plot tips so don't quote me. Who cares? I'm happy to have Sarah's music shoved in my face on one of my favorite tv shows...anytime) It's on at 8pm central time...so X-Files fans who are also Sarah fans and potential DS fans should set your VCRs. DS had been on Thursday nights, up against My So Called Life and Mad About You...and didn't really stand a chance. Since XF & DS are *so* different they probably won't share that many fans, I really hope the ratings for these 3 shows are good enough for some other network to consider picking up the show.
