Friday Night is Music Night (God's God Edition)
As Clapton says:
"The blues played a crucial role in the birth of rock and roll. It had a particularly dramatic effect in post-war England, as merchant seaman returned home with this exotic music from the United States. Like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who and countless other British rock musicians, Eric Clapton was enthralled with the American blues records that he heard on the BBC. In the grooves of the vinyl discs, he recognized kindred spirits. These artists expressed the same sense of heartache and loss which Eric often felt in his own life. Although he listened to a wide variety of blues records, it was Johnson who made the strongest impression on him. Clapton once declared; "Robert Johnson to me is the most important blues musician who ever lived." Judging by this unabashed admiration, it is therefore hardly surprising that Clapton chose to record "Crossroads", as well as several other songs by Johnson. Despite the obvious differences between these two individuals, they seem to be cut from the same ragged cloth. So decades after the bluesman's death, Clapton still carries on his legacy. His own music now exudes the same raw passion and commitment which once flowed out from Johnson's haunting guitar."

3DP FusionPlaying A Different Game
Whether it is board games, apps on our phones, or p2p role-playing games online, we knew there can be a different approach. 3DP Fusion Inc. was started to make a difference in the way we think about and play games. We set out to create fun and unique games, when played, would give the players a unique gaming experience every time they played. We designed concepts that take gaming to a whole new level and give each of our users a unique view of old classics.
We know the value of education. Having kids ourselves we were frustrated by the lack of games that focused on the core concepts of what every child should know; reading, writing, math, and science. That is why we took a unique approach, trying to fill the void of educational games that kids can play and games that they want to play over and over again!
That is why we created strategic based children’s games with fundamental concepts. Merging together the fun and the knowledge we have come up with some of the most unique knowledge-based games ever devised. Keep coming back to our website to see the newest products launched in our educational game line.
We heard it all the time, that board games were a dying business. We challenged that notion and faced it head-on. In the end, the problem wasn’t that board games were dying, they just weren’t fun anymore. There was no strategy anymore in games and the ired reinvention of the same concepts was killing the marketplace. So we took the notion of board games and made sure that they were different, unique, and made with strategy in mind. This way you can play the same game multiple times but have a different outcome because there are so many ways that you can approach the finish line.
Board games can bring people together regardless of how many players are playing. Look at the difference between our concepts v. others out there. Keep checking back on our site to see the launch of our newest games coming out.
We know how important mobile gaming is to people these days. With the amount of time that we spend on our phone having quick fun to break up the monotony of the day is important! That is why we have designed and built amazing games and apps you can use to escape during the day! When it comes to mobile gaming the philosophy is simple: make it new. There are tons of the same game over and over again just repackaged differently. We make our mobile, fun, different, and challenging. When it comes to game design there are no cutting corners. Keep coming back to our site to see the newest launches of our mobile games and where to download them to your phone and tablets today!

FSW To Be Included in Mobile Game “Indie Wrestler”
Future Stars of Wrestling will be included in an upcoming update for the iOS and Android mobile game “Indie Wrestler.”
As announced on social media this morning, Future Stars of Wrestling will be included in an upcoming update for the iOS and Android mobile game “Indie Wrestler.” We recommend that you get the game now and start leveling up so that YOU can become a Future Stars of Wrestling star!
Start From The Bottom And Go To The Top Of The Wrestling World
Indie Wrestler is a tap based mobile game; made by wrestling fans for wrestling fans. The idea behind it is pretty simple – we wanted to give you the opportunity to create a character and take them to the top of the wrestling world.
How do you do that? By getting yourself over. Have great matches, cut promos and win titles. You get to train your wrestler, work for different promotions, upgrade your gear and even react to online gossip, rumours and innuendo. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. It’s truly a unique game that hasn’t been developed for the wrestling scene before.
The ultimate goal of the game is to make it to the biggest promotion in the game and become their world champion. And then test your long term drawing power out to see how long you can stay on top for.
YOUR CHARACTER. YOUR STORY.
No two games are the same with Indie Wrestler. Work for the promotions you want, on a schedule you want, and watch how it shapes your career.

The Mice Templar Volume 4.1: Legend, Part One (Signed)
"When you read [Mice Templar] it feels as if you've had a veil
between dimensions pulled back, as if you've been yanked, body and soul,
into a world that becomes somehow more real than the one around us."
From the Foreword by J.M. DeMatteis, Illustrated by Jon J Muth
The Legend of Karic grows...but its legacy is both greater and darker than the noble young mouse it is said to embody. As every victory is turned against him, the heroic Karic confronts his own past and demands answers from the meddling gods of the Pantheon who first called him to his troubling and mysterious destiny. Secrets are revealed. And the mad king Icarus, claiming godhood for himself, launches his great and terrible war against creation, bringing fiery wrath against all who oppose him.
Thus continues the extraordinary adventure of magic and wonder, of faith and valor, and of one small mouse whose destiny may change the entire world.
Written by Bryan J.L. Glass • Illustrated by Victor Santos
Colored by Serena Guerra
Collecting the award-winning The Mice Templar: Legend issues 1-8, created by Bryan J.L. Glass (Furious), Michael Avon Oeming (Powers, The Victories), Victor Santos (Polar: Came From the Cold), published by Image Comics.
This copy is signed by co-creator Bryan J.L. Glass.

MIND + EFL ‘On Your Side’
Creating a highly sharable film about mental health for an audience not typically comfortable talking about their vulnerabilities.
Football fans aren't famous for talking about their vulnerabilities or feelings, but at a time when suicide is the single highest cause of death among men under 45 in the UK, that needs to change.
Lapse Film was commissioned by Our Design Agency to produce ‘On Your Side’, a short film announcing the launch of a game changing partnership between mental health charity Mind and the EFL.
The film centres around a team of groundsmen prepping and painting pitch markings, finally revealing the Mind logo which has replaced the centre mark. The aim of the finished film was to be gentle about the subject matter while still being attractive to a football fan base, capturing the calm feeling on a match day before the crowds of fans arrived and offering an insight on the preparations of the pitch. On Your Side focuses heavily on the supportive nature of the stadium support staff.
Shot in south London at Millwall FC’s stadium “The Den”, the crew was given free rein of the ground. Two of the stadiums real groundsmen feature in the film in order to maintain an authentic and real feel. The groundsmen were gently directed as the crew followed them, capturing their day to day responsibilities.
For flexibility, speed and cinematic value the crew used the DJI Ronin, a steady cam gamble which aided in adding a continued sense of motion through out the film. This was complemented by a second camera on a dolly track to capture close ups.
With social media channels as well as stadium screens being the primary platforms for the finished video, extra focus was put on making sure that any action in the shot happened within safe areas so that footage didn’t have to be awkwardly cropped in post production.
With viewers on social media platforms now commonly consuming video without sound, it was hugely important that the film was easily digestible with or without sound. With this in mind, well placed titles were integrated throughout the film being revealed by the groundsmen, fixed to pitchforks or hidden behind rolling footballs.
The On Your Side film was released on World Mental Health Day across EFL and club social channels and was shared over 2,300 times with over 208,000 views in its first day live.
Along side this, Our Design Agency also commissioned Lapse Film to make a behind the scenes film to showcase the work that had gone into the project. The behind the scenes video was shot along side the main film and used footage captured but the second camera when it wasn’t in use. It was delivered and released at the same time as the main film, encouraging viewers to find out more about how the film was made, driving even more interaction and engagement with the finished product.

As its subtitle suggests, the real subject of Chaography is freedom – the joy and
creativity it awakens in us, the different forms it can take, and the costs and sacrifices
it requires. Each of our five overlapping stories is focused around a fictional jazz
artist whose musical idiom is inventively translated into the language of film. Interwoven
throughout is the parallel storyline of Max and his girlfriend Ava, two Chinese-American
students who enter the jazz world as bystanders, and whose attempt to build a life
together in America provides counterpoint to the journeys of the musicians.
Part I, “Bar Stops,”is inspired by the music of Thelonious Monk. Its narrative,
following a Pianist (Eric Reed) torn between the people he cares about and the transgressions
which lead him away from them, explores the notion of “Freedom vs. Love.” Like one
of Monk’s solos, the story is idiosyncratic and circular, building upon its world
in countless variations which fold back upon themselves, alternating between playfulness
Part II, “Your Philosophy Can’t Touch the Holy Ghost,” is inspired by the music of
Charles Mingus. Exploring the issue of “Freedom vs. Oppression,” it presents the
tragicomic exploits of a Bassist trying to reestablish himself after fleeing to escape
the messy collapse of his marriage. An encounter with a mysterious Hobo (Melvin Van
Peebles) may point the way to success - if it doesn’t land him in jail. The story
is conceived as a silent film set to a boisterous Mingus-like soundtrack, brimming
with melodrama, slapstick and, finally, profound pathos.
Part III, “Ten to One,” is inspired by the music of Miles Davis. Following a Trumpeter’s
attempts to cajole his restless Sax player (Stacy Dillard) to stay in the band, and
simultaneously to woo Ava, who has just gotten engaged to Max, the section explores
the tension embodied in “Freedom vs. Community.” As in much of Miles’ music, the
narrative unfolds in elliptical fragments, full of pregnant pauses and mysterious
gaps, which we the audience must piece together.
Part IV, “Pile On,”is inspired by the music of Ornette Coleman. Spanning a day in
the life of a Plastic Saxophone player (Ted Nash), the story follows a series of
increasingly absurd episodes he encounters on the way to his day job, dramatizing
the paradox of “Freedom vs. Order.” In keeping with Coleman’s experimental nature,
this section will be shot and edited with a loose, expressionistic quality veering
just this side of chaos.
Part V, “Departure (or The Shadow of Death),”is inspired by the music of John Coltrane.
Investigating the problem of “Freedom vs. Fate,” the story finds Sax (Dillard),
marked for an untimely death, entering magically into the life of Max, who has taken
a very different path, becoming a businessman and seeking domestic bliss with Ava
and their children. This concluding section is, like Coltrane’s music, probing and
spiritual, making wild narrative leaps in search of the ineffable.

Ottawa, Ontario – Craft brewery Beau’s All Natural has announced plans to release a collaborative beer with Toronto’s hip hop artist k-os this June. The beer will be revealed at the Session Toronto Craft Beer Festival on Saturday June 13. The festival, which kicks off Ontario Craft Beer Week across the province, takes place at Yonge and Dundas Square that day over two tasting sessions, one daytime and one evening.
In addition to the chance to taste a wide variety of different beers from Ontario craft brewers, Session Toronto also hosts the Collaboration Nation contest. The contest allows attendees of the festival to cast their vote for their favourite “Collaboration Nation” beer, which are brewed by Ontario craft breweries teamed up with a celebrity. The top collaborative beer of the day, as tallied by total votes, wins a future spot on LCBO shelves.
Beau’s won Collaboration Nation in 2013 with The Tom Green Beer!, and took an honorable mention in 2014 with Margaret Atwood/Graeme Gibson’s MaddAddamites NooBroo. Beau’s 2015 partner, k-os, is several-times a Juno award winner and a veteran of the Canadian hip hop scene. The beer was conceived through multi-day brainstorming sessions, which led to a brewing concept that ties back to the core elements of k-os’ music. A teaser video announcing the collaboration can be viewed here: https://vimeo.com/127708217
Advance tickets for the Session Toronto Craft Beer Festival 2015 are on sale now, at $40 for regular admission. Tickets day-of will go up to $55. They can be purchased online at www.sessiontoronto.com/tickets.html

This was one of the funniest videos I've seen in a while. Good work!
God yes! This needed to be made, anything Shrek is an instant hit in my book by default. This was seriously very well made though. Great stuff
The art was messy and the animation was simple and basic, but you know what? It did what it needed to do in order to tell the story/joke and it made me laugh... a lot. I can see that you have an adroitness for storytelling. Great work!
This was good, I like it. Animation and art style came off as charming. The voice acting was the best thing about this for me, that and the dialogue. The joke has been done before, yet it still mad me laugh. So that in itself says something. The biggest problem was the lack of sound effects, it seemed eerie and slightly off. Other than that though it's solid!
It was very funny and had great character animation.
Haha, I liked the voices they were funny. But the sound quality itself could be better. The animation was very limited, but in shonen anime in general is and due to this being a parody of Dragon ball Z you can get away with it. The actual drawings were nice and the faces were hilarious. At the end of the day it's the joke that's important when doing parodies, and I think it was a good point that was very true to Dragon Ball in general (letting your enemies power up) and a good execution of it. Well, It made me laugh anyway, meaning you pulled it off in my book. And I'm taking the fact that this is only your second animation, so here have a four star dragon ball!
Thanks a lot for the review!
I appreciate it!
My favourite thing about this, were the sparks. Very cool and nicely animated. Well done!
This was amazing, I loved it! I mean, even if the story didn't appeal to everyone I think that people should take into consideration the quality of animation and effort that went into this. Not only that but the length was 5min long. Great work man!

My name is Sophie. I like Pina Coladas and getting caught in the rain, and classic 80's hits...
but what I love most of all (besides my cat!) is capturing people being happy and in love on their wedding day. I love all of those in-between moments just as much as the big ones - the toddler trying to take your beer, your veil blowing all over the place in the wind, that reassuring hand squeeze as you get nervous saying your vows...they all come together to tell the unique story of your day and of you as a couple.
I have a relaxed and fun approach and am always making new friendships with the people I photograph - I recently went to an indoor inflatable park with one of my couples to catch up! Getting to know you means I'll have a better understanding of exactly what you want out of your photography. It's so important to me that we can get along and laugh together as this adds something invaluable to your photos; It helps you to relax so I can capture you being you, however silly you may be!
Get to know me
Lake Como, Feb 19
My cat, Tilly. She's super cute and is my only co-worker (she won't be with me at your wedding though!)
Polaroids - I love my Instax and hang all of the polaroids around my office!
Sunflowers - they make me happy!
Spicy food! Asian food is my favourite and I am not afraid of a chilli!
Adventure - I love flying and going on road trips! You can check out my travel photos here
A nice glass (or 3) of Merlot!
My Nespresso machine - I don't know how I ever lived without it!
Silly facts about me...
My Mum named me after her favourite pet hamster
My favourite Friends episode is the one with the trifle. "Custard? Good. Jam? Good. Meat? Goooood!"
I am left handed
My hidden talent is the Moonwalk!
Mulan is my favourite Disney film, and Hades is my favourite Disney character - I love how sassy he is!
According to the sorting hat on Pottermore I'm a Slytherin
My vinyl player and music in general. Fav bands and musicians include Fleetwood Mac, Shania Twain, Taylor Swift, London Grammar, and Dire Straits, and anything from the 80's & 90's! A bit varied I know!

This is the ideal companion for visitors to Los Angeles who are looking for the city glimpsed in old movies and TV shows. The 39 entries encompass both the glamour and the demi-monde: here are glittering 1920s movie palaces, down-and-dirty bars, ballrooms, diners and pizza joints. These are places where movie stars, gangsters, writers and barflies have wined, dined, romanced, brawled and now lie at permanent rest.
This is a guide to the old LA that lives on today. These places have made few concessions to changing times, but modern Angelenos love them still. We hope you will too.

Keeping pace with the internet has been the online casino games. The proliferation of the online casino games has meant lots of enjoyment for people who usually spend some time online. The vast number of casino games that are online means a great scope for selection for online players. However one needs to make an effort to find out which game is ideally suited, especially if one is new to the game. All casino game sites have their own visual appeal and players with their own likes and dislikes must choose the online casino to go with. This takes a while but is not overtly difficult. Casino online is as diverse in character as players are. If one was to follow some tips for choosing online casino sites, it would make the search for the best sites an easy and enjoyable exercise online casino games.
The ideal way to go about choosing the best casino site suitable for one like is to do a bit of research on the net. Reviews of online casinos are a good way to start. These reviews will generally highlight both the positive and negative aspects of a game. However there would also be biased reviews that one would come across. These are very easy to recognize as these would be talking only about the positive aspects of the online site. Looking for a credible site and searching for reviews there would be the best way of undertaking this job. There are sites where one can play a few introductory games free of charge before moving on to the real money option. This will help one get used to the online casino site and will stand one in good stead in the future.
It is always a difficult task to compare online casino games, especially for those who are new to the game. It would not be a bad idea at all to try out some of the free games to see if the game is suitable for someone’s liking. The idea behind playing the online casino is not just to spend time playing the free games. The main idea is to gamble with money. One needs to find a site which offers the convenience of a good interface and provides games with which one is familiar. Some sites may look great but the games inside may leave a lot to be desired. It is better to avoid those sites and move on in the search for a better gaming site. Another thing of importance to be noted is the software that is being used in some of these online casinos. Sites that use software such as RTG, Vegas Technology, Playtech or Crytologic are good ones to play with. Sites that use these software’s will allow one to have a good time gambling.
Before starting the playing process one should be aware of all the regulations in the particular site. Since online casinos involve playing with money, the banking options which the site offers must be looked into. Putting in money and withdrawing money if a good win has been registered are options that need to be looked into. Also one should look into the personal information that one is providing to the site and the liability options. Any site that offers huge bonuses that look catchy need to be avoided. Look for an online casino site which looks natural; a site where one thinks one can both win and lose. That may well be the site worth looking into.

When I was young I remember listening to music, recording myself and the radio on cassette tapes. But as I grew up and technology changed they were all sold or thrown away. It wasn’t until a couple of years ago that I found a blank cassette tape and remembered the analogue format nostalgically.
From then I decided I would try find myself a half decent cassette deck and some more blank tapes to try and record some mixtapes. After two weeks my new old Denon DRM-550 cassette deck arrived after winning it on eBay. I opted for this deck since it was simple with not too many moving parts, in my eyes it meant less parts that could go wrong.
From here it was all gonna be a big experiment. On a tape hiss can sometimes be overwhelming, so much so it can be hard to even enjoy the music recorded. Using the built in noise reduction system for tapes, called Dolby B and Dolby C, as well as recording on a variety of ferric (type I) and chrome (type II) tapes I found the best audio quality I would be able to achieve with what I had. Also bringing the peak levels up so they would just about hit +3 dB, giving me the best hiss/audio ratio I could get out of the tape being used.
After making a few mixtapes and now with my collection growing, I decided I would buy myself a more portable player. This is when I got my first Walkman, the Sony WM-36. After a little speed adjustment it was spot on, with built in noise reduction it sounded good. To make it work with more modern speaker systems I got myself a small Bluetooth transmitter so I could play music just as I would off my phone to my speakers.
I thought about getting bigger and portable like a boom box. They looked awesome, a way of playing music anywhere before phones had speakers and Bluetooth. I ended up sticking with Sony and getting a CFS-230L from eBay. Plays the music with a punch, didn’t come with noise reduction but the EQ adjustment seems to get around the hiss.
My latest purchase was the flagship Sony Walkman Professional WM-D6C. This thing is amazing. The build and playback quality out does everything I have by far! Matched with a good sound system you wouldn’t believe it’s a cassette tape. I am yet to mess around recording audio with it but I’m sure the quality would be high with everything you need to monitor sound built in.
I find something about having the music physically in my hand very satisfying. Yes music on our phones is very handy. But picking up the cassette, slotting it into the rack and pressing the play button is musical bliss.

Each year for the past three years, as a Christmas card to my friends and family, I write an original story in the ongoing adventures of Elf Abba. Instead of a card, I mail out little booklets furthering the tale of Abba and her friends. I always tell myself that I'll work on it throughout the year, but I don't. I never start until at least Thanksgiving, and this year, I started the tale on December 1st. After a few misgivings about where her story might lead this year, (I never work with a plot outline) I plunged in and am happy to say Elf Abba's misadventure this year has begun!
Here is the cover from the first volume:

The annual Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Singapore (USS) is back with immersive Halloween scare festival this year. Complete with scares in four specially created movie-quality haunted houses and three immersive scare zones, the fifth installment of this signature event is back to thrill with a new experiential tourism offering, with more elements from local ghost stories.
This year, close to 400 scare-actors are engaged for the Halloween Horror Nights, with the oldest being 70 years old. A total of 4,900 prosthetics pieces were produced and 10 gallons of fake blood were used during the event, according to the USS.
“This year, there are also additional technical training sessions for roles that are more challenging, e.g. special stilt walkers,” said Seah Wee Thye, Assistant Vice President, Entertainment, Resorts World Sentosa.
The main haunted house this year is “The MRT”, which is adapted from the “True Singapore Ghost Stories”, a series of ghost stories co-authored by Russell Lee. This haunted house features familiar characters cast in an original storyline created just for Halloween Horror Nights and inspired by tales of paranormal sightings on the train.
“The storyline for the haunted house is inspired by reports of paranormal sightings on trains, and fans can expect to see characters from the pages of the True Singapore Ghost Stories transform into reality,” Lee said.
Like “The MRT”, two other haunted houses “Siloso Gateway Block 50” and “Hell House” also features iconic local ghosts and scenes. The idea of using more local elements, according to Andrea Teo, Vice President of Entertainment at Resorts World Sentosa, is in fact from audiences.
“We heard our fans, and this year’s event will take even more of a local twist, bringing fear even closer to heart…The theme for Southeast Asia’s iconic Halloween event this year surrounds the rise of the blood moon, which will spread destruction to life as we know it.”
Another brand new idea is the “Tunnel People”, the event’s first ever dark house, where guests can see nothing but feel their way through the fortress of the Tunnel People in darkness.
“Guests are enveloped in darkness and the narrow pathways enhance the feeling of being cramped in a dark space. Tunnel People plays on the guest’s other senses, sounds, scent, touch, and the element of surprise to provide an intense underground experience,” said Seah.
This year’s Halloween Horror Nights will unfold its horrible veil from Oct. 2. Apart from the haunted houses and scare zones, visitors can also enjoy USS’s famous rides such as “Rides like Battlestar Galactica”, “Transformers The Ride: The Ultimate 3D Battle” during the visit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is laser tag dangerous?
No, laser tag is not dangerous. Laser tag is a non-contact sport that uses transmitters (LEDs) placed on multiple points of a player worn vest. Each vest is accompanied by a sensitivity rifle that has a focusing lens, and a very narrow field of view that can detect the transmitters only when pointed straight at them. The rifle acts like a remote, such as the one used to change the channel on your television that sends a signal when the rifle is aligned with the target on the vest.
How does laser tag work?
Laser tag is a game played by all ages 5 and up. Each player wears a vest that has transmitter targets attached throughout and is accompanied by a sensitivity rifle that when pointed on target at another player’s transmitter will send a signal to award points for the successful players. Laser tag is a timed match, can be played on teams or individual play and in different themes like capture the flag.
How much space do you need for laser tag?
For an optimal play experience, 24 – 30 players are recommended in an arena space of 3,000 – 4,500 square feet. The average size of a birthday party is about 12 kids, so if you have a 30 player capacity, it allows you to fit 2 birthday parties per game with space for walk-in traffic.

Yesterday, I got to travel to Cincinnati for a day filled with sight seeing, eating & listening to great music! We started the day exploring Downtown Cincinnati near the waterfront. I love exploring new cities & searching for breathtaking views. Cincinnati did not disappoint. The waterfront is lined with a beautiful park filled with swings, picnic tables, water fountains, a ferris wheel & a carousel!
Got to travel around with my husband, Justin, & the talented Jon of Flaco Studios. Justin explored with his new Movi Freefly gimbal and the Moment Anamorphic Lens. Jon used a Nikon D3000 DSLR. I walked around with our Moment Wide Lens. This gear allowed us to get some really great shots, even with our phones!
After exploring the city, we headed to Bogarts to watch Johnnyswim perform on their Moonlight Tour. They NEVER disappoint. This is my second time seeing them live & they always sound better in person! They are always so engaging & entertaining within their shows. Trella opened for them & did such an amazing job too!
It was another incredible concert experience + beautiful day to explore Cincinnati!

My name is Mia Kylie Ditta and I am a 16 year old singer/songwriter. My dream is to make a lasting impact on the world through my music. This amazing journey started in a small town right outside of New Orleans. I would sing and dance around to karaoke with my family in my pull-up diapers when I was just about two years old. I could barely even make out the words, but I made it a point to hit all the "money notes" at the end of the songs! From there, my journey grew. I took part in musical theater for about 5 years before the video of me singing in a Southwest Flight went viral!
After the blessing of the viral video, I received so many amazing opportunities like being interviewed on news and radio stations and performing more National Anthems and shows! I began writing and recording my own music at 10 years old and started a band when I was 12. My band and I have been blessed to play so many amazing shows! In July of 2017, we were hired to headline the Coca-Cola Festival at Six Flags in Arlington, Texas. I was also invited to perform in Disneyland, LA in the beginning of August 2017! On July 14, 2018, I got to fulfill a life long dream of playing the Whiskey A Go Go and recording a new song while in LA. I am currently working hard in and out of the studio to learn as much as I can, write as much music as I can, and share my music with the world as much as I can! I actually taught myself guitar, ukulele, and piano- "the fire inside of me grows every second!" So many dreams are coming true!!! I know with hard work, dedication, dreams, and God - I CAN REACH THE STARS AND BEYOND!!! My heart beats with the music. Thank you all for the love and support, I love you guys so much!! :)

For you to be able to view a ‘locked’ episode on FX Networks, you need to enter the activation code online. There is a webpage, accessible at activate.fxnetworks.com, where you are supposed to enter the activation code, in order to view such a locked episode. This need to unlock episodes (by entering an activation code online) usually arises if you are using a TV-connected device. Therefore, in the course of watching FX Networks episodes on such TV-connected devices, you are bound to run into activation messages every once in a while. The locked episodes usually have key/lock signs on the top right hand corner. Such episodes tend to stop running at some point, whereupon an activation code appears on your TV screen. So what you are required to do, at that point, is visit the activation page (activate.fxnetworks.com) and enter the code, so as to continue watching the episodes.
How to identify locked FX Networks episodes
As mentioned earlier, locked FX Networks episodes usually have a key/lock sign at the top right hand corner. It means that such episodes will not be fully available, unless you enter the activation code. True, the initial part of the episode may run normally. But then it is bound to stop running at some point, with an activation code appearing on the screen. Now that is the code that you need to enter online, to continue watching.
How to obtain the activation code
The activation code appears on the screen, while the locked episode is running. In other words, while running the locked FX Networks episode, you soon getting to a point where you are required to enter a code online, so as to continue watching the episodes. The activation code appears right on the TV screen. So your part is simply to copy that code, and enter it online (at activate.fxnetworks.com), and then you will be able to continue watching the episode. You just need to be careful in ensuring that you copy and enter the activation code correctly.
How to access the FX Networks activation page
The FX Networks activation page is accessible at activate.fxnetworks.com. You only need to launch your browser application, and enter that address (activate.fxnetworks.com), and your browser will then take you to a page where you can enter the activation code.
How to enter the FX Networks activation code
On the FX Networks activation page, there is a space provided for entry of the activation code. Your bit is just to enter the code as it appeared on your TV screen. Then you need to click on the ‘Submit’ button, and the episode you were watching will be unlocked. It will then load fully on your TV screen, and you will be able to watch it in its entirety.

Staging Journeys is located at the Philadelphia School of Circus Arts. We are so excited to be sharing this beautiful space and
Friday Production: January 17 – June 12 (18 rehearsals)
4:45 – 7:00 Original Theater Performance and Production
With this project, we will focus on the theater driving the music as we explore the theme of home and belonging.
- Ages 8-15
- Performances Friday, June 12 at 7pm and Sunday, June 14 at 6pm.
- No rehearsals February 14, April 3, April 10, May 15
- Tuition: $230 per student ($25 discount for siblings)
This project is inspired in part by the poem Where I’m From, by George Ella Lyon.
Philly community members will be invited to rehearsals to share personal stories about home and belonging, and we will use these stories to create original scenes. Songs and personal writings from young people will join the stories together to create a theatrical production as rich and warm as the communities we are from! Our process for making theater will be highly collaborative as we seek to use improvisation, personal reflection, scene development, storytelling, and music to build devised theater together.
MAJORS: The major is the area your child MOST wants to focus on in this project. Select your major on the registration form. All participants will be involved in the creation of the story and chorus numbers.
ACTING: Concentrate on fine-tuning acting skills, stage presence, and line delivery. Bigger acting parts will go to people in this group.
SINGING: Concentrate on music, learn harmonies, basic vocal techniques, choral and solo singing.
DESIGN/TECH: Concentrate on the design of set and costumes. Choose to have mostly behind-the-scenes jobs and/or choose to sing in the main chorus songs.
It is a fundamental SJ goal to keep the cost of tuition on the low end so that we can be accessible to more families in our community. If you are able, please consider making a donation to our scholarship fund on the registration form. We offer scholarships for all of our productions.
Staging Journeys’ goal in youth theater is to bring young people of various backgrounds and ages together to share their stories, their messages, and their talents on the stage, creating original works by children for their community.

Exploring Space With Your Computer (Again)
In April 2009, I contributed to the International Year of Astronomy daily podcast series with a podcast called "Exploring Space With Your Computer." It featured audio dramatizations of a mission to Europa and the final seconds of the Apollo 11 moon landing, as simulated in the free Orbiter spaceflight simulator. It also discussed the free planetarium program Stellarium and a few other free tools for exploring space from the comfort of your computer keyboard. I used sound effects from Orbiter and also wrote and recorded a spacey-sounding musical soundtrack for the podcast. It was fun to do.
The daily astronomy podcast program has continued beyond 2009, and today "Exploring Space With Your Computer" is being featured as a "classic" thanks to someone's unexpected cancellation. It's nice to be featured, even as a rerun. I posted a set of Orbiter screenshots illustrating my simulated space adventures on Flickr. You can read more about the podcast (including web links) in this 2009 blog post. The podcast series is continuing into 2012 - maybe I'll even find time to do a new podcast next year.

Yay! I’m participating in my first ever Bookish Bingo ♡
I’ve always seen these Bookish Bingo cards around, but I’ve never participated, but then I read Megan’s Winter Bookish Bingo Wrap-Up and it sounded like she had so much fun, so I had to sign up to do Spring Bookish Bingo.
Bookish Bingo is hosted by Bekka from Pretty Deadly Blog. Be sure to check out the post for instructions on how the Bookish Bingo works and also read some of Bekka’s recommendations for each square.
Spring Bookish Bingo will run from March to May, so any book you read in that time period will count towards your bingo card. I’ve already filled in some squares!
♡ Sisters – Caraval by Stephanie Garber.
♡ Magic – Harry Potter and The Order of The Pheonix by J.K. Rowling.
♡ Dragons – Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling*
♡ Spring Releases – Queens of Geek by Jen Wilde.
♡ Finale – The Black Key by Amy Ewing.
Are you participating in Spring Bookish Bingo? Have you participated in Bookish Bingo before? Do you have any advice for a newbie? Let me know in the comments!
* Does anyone know whether Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire will count towards the Dragons square?

Music is Poetry
Music is the poetry of the air. ~Richter
|<p><a href="http://www.freedigitalphotos.net">Image: FreeDigitalPhotos.net</a></p>|
Music inspires me to write, especially poetry. Music itself is poetry. Not one certain song or genre, but music in it's entirety. Flowing rhythmically from the instruments, plucked from the fingertips of an artist; chords float on the wind. The melodies grasp me; singing to me... calling me forth into a trance. Capturing my attention and penetrating my mind, I feel it pulse through my body. Lyrics probe the depths of my emotions, toying with them. Teasing me with a temporary joy... or depression. Absorbing the words, clinging onto the chorus; they mold themselves around my life. For the length of the song... they become me; sometimes lingering for a moment after. It takes ahold of me to a point that I'm moved to write a piece that compares in beauty.
Taking on a life of it's own when released into the world; it has the power to change... to heal. Music has the power to impress its self upon you... your life will never be the same.
"The birds like leaves on Winterwood,
Sing hopeful songs on dismal days.
They've learned to live life as they should.
They are at peace with natures ways.
You are as natural as the night,
And all that springs from you is good.
And the children born beneath your light,
Are like the birds on Winterwood. "~Don McLean's Winterwood~
Music is a part of who I am. It flows through my veins caressing my heart. Ingrained into my brain; etched into my skin. Words spill from my lips; then when put to music... it's pure ecstasy. A world without music or poetry will no longer be a world worth living.
Without music life would be a mistake. ~Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

After reading your words at the top I said Wow, then I read your post and it's a double wow. The lyrical quality of your words struck me. Just beautiful.ReplyDelete
Thank you! I try to keep the same "voice" in whatever I write wether it's poetry or just thoughts.Delete
Eloquent and strong. I love the beautiful imagery you create. I can feel the music you write about through your words. Very well done.ReplyDelete
Thank you! I really appreciate your comments.Delete
I love the connection you make here between music and writing! I come from a hugely musical family, so it has always been a part of just about everything I do. (I don't know if you watch "New Girl" but the main character, Jess's, whole "I'm going to randomly break into song" thing? Totally stolen from me!) In all seriousness, though, I think it tells us something very important about the nature of writing as art that it can be so strongly linked to music, and art (painting/photography/etc.)--it tells me that despite what some of the naysayers naysay, it *is* art! :) Thanks for this post!ReplyDelete
Thank you for the comment! I too come from a very musical family. I didn't get any of the musical talent, but I did get the writing talent which is also very strong.I was taught to appreciate all kinds of music when growing up. Like you, I know it's all art and goes hand in hand, I've witnessed it happening!Delete
Music and lyrics capture my attention and penetrate my mind. Very nice sentiment. Indeed. I couldn't agree more. Nice post.ReplyDelete
Thank you for the awesome comment!I'm glad you enjoyed the post.Delete
"Flowing rhythmically from the instruments, plucked from the fingertips of an artist; chords float on the wind. " - love it :) You didn't have to even mention you write poetry as it is so evident :)ReplyDelete
Thank you for the awesome comment and for stopping by to read!Delete

Happy Days by Samuel Beckett is a classical masterpiece which is performed all around the world with controversial success.
Our Happy Days is not just a play. Beckett’s desire to banish dialogue and action develops into a huge unacknowledged emptiness revealed by the two characters. Just another happy day. Two people, a couple. Two spaces, their lives. Their hopes and their marriage, a bag and a gun. So little to say, so little to do.
Created, directed and performed by Samuele Caldognetto and Bethany Thompson
Creative team: Alessandro Berellini, Kjell Philström and Miriam Ventura

At risk of offending my regular readership, I have a confession to make:
I am a Britney Spears fan.
And I like her new album.
The tracks on Circus - with the exception of the repackaged Radar from her Blackout album - are current, catchy and marketable to the club scene and Top 40 radio.
I've heard Circus at least a half dozen times since I purchased the standard edition on Thursday. (The deluxe edition is on its way.) Womanizer, Kill the Lights, and Unusual You stood out as the highlights to me. The first track, Womanizer, is pure Britney, complete with scandalous music video; Kill the Lights seems reminiscent of her current opening act, The Pussycat Dolls; and Unusual You has a new-age feel that is unique to Britney's recent offerings.
Two tracks on the album -- Out from Under and If You Seek Amy -- appear to allude to previous relationships, the former with Justin Timberlake and the latter with Kevin Federline. The lyrics from Out from Under read as an attempt at closure while If You Seek Amy broadcasts as an angst-filled breakup song.
I might be in the minority, but the song Circus seems like a miss. It's likely to show up in concert though, because early reports on the upcoming tour show a center-ring configuration. Circus fits the bill in that case. Mmm Papi and Blur are the weaker tracks. I wouldn't miss either of these if they weren't played live.
For the record, Blackout was a solid offering last year. Unfortunately, Britney was in no shape to promote it. It is encouraging to see that she is planning a full tour in support of Circus.

Sylvia Vandenbossche produced several masterpieces during her long career as a costume designer, but experts agree her tour de force was her wardrobe for the opera La Gorgone, and this gown in particular.
La Gorgone is an opera fantastique by Philippe Nyström based on classic works of mythology, especially Ovid's Metamorphoses. It follows the story of the famous snake-headed creature Medusa, depicting her as a tragic figure who lost her beauty, humanity, and her will to love and be loved.
Nyström wished the music to describe this transition, and insisted the rest of the production did the same. Sylvia Vandenbossche designed four costumes for Medusa, one for each act, that became more otherworldly as the narration moved forward. The gown above represented the full transformation of the character into a monster in the fourth act.
Vandenbossche and her collaborator, seamstress Berthe Dumont, borrowed techniques from puppetry to ideate a clever wire undergarment that allowed the gown's snakes to come to life as the singer moved across the stage. The result was so staggering, Nyström himself described the gown as a living entity.
This gown is also unique because it's only been worn but once, by the soprano Isabelle Ekdahl, the first ever Medusa. A quick piece of trivia: Sylvia Vandenbossche doubled her fee when she found out Madame Ekdahl's casting, due to the diva's infamous fastidiousness when it came to her on-stage presence.
Contrary to popular opinion, vanity never guided Madame Ekdahl; excruciating perfectionism did. She understood everything surrounding a production, from the stage design to her costumes (even her shoes) could heighten or hinder her performance. And she acted accordingly.
Madame's rigorousness nourished her career, but also made her incapable of savoring her success, as it also fueled her everlasting and biggest fear: losing her audience.
- Dahlia Andersen-Silva, The Life of Isabelle Ekdahl (1982)
La Gorgone opened at the Zurich Opera House in 1900 to great trepidation. During the last act, Isabelle Ekdahl executed the aria Ton Cœur Est Froid Comme Du Marbre (Your Heart Is Cold as Marble) to perfection, arguably one of the most difficult arias in opera history.
The soprano was shocked when she received no ovation. She would've stormed off in disappointment if she hadn't noticed Marco Santini's (Perseus) stiff pose and expression, and the sudden silence that had taken hold of the orchestra and the whole auditorium.
Hours later, the authorities found Isabelle Ekdahl fainted on the stage and a theatre full of people who suffered from a strange case of paralysis. After 24 hours, the alarming enrapture faded away without any grave consequences to anybody's health, though the event startled Madame Ekdahl so, she retired the next day.
No one dared to perform La Gorgone until 1973, when it inaugurated the season of the Metropolitan Opera in New York. Fortunately, nothing extraordinary tainted that performance, and Nyström's piece reclaimed its importance as one of the most fascinating operas ever composed.
Since then, several companies had tried to borrow Sylvia Vandenbossche's gown from the Ravensfield Collection for new renditions of La Gorgone. The Ravensfield family has always refused, and this iconic dress has never left its glass case since its donation by the Zurich Opera in 1905—a sight to behold and a visitors' favorite to this day.

“Mount Auburn Cemetery: Spring and Autumn Suites” is an album of twelve original compositions inspired by the beautiful Mount Auburn Cemetery of Cambridge, MA, USA. The works were composed by Mount Auburn Cemetery artist-in-residence Mary Bichner, an orchestral composer with the music “superpowers” of perfect pitch and synesthesia (a condition that causes here to “see” splashes of specific colors when she hears their corresponding pitches sounded).
In the first year of her residency, Mary composed twelve new works inspired by Mount Auburn Cemetery’s breathtaking landscape and landmarks, using her sound-to-color synesthesia to select the musical components that best “match” the natural color palette of each location at different times of year. The finished collection consists of a six-movement Spring Suite and a six-movement Autumn Suite that, when played in order, also takes place over the course of a single day (sunrise to sunset).
The suites contain both vocal and instrumental works. Of the voice-based pieces, all but one are musical settings of poems written by poets buried at Mount Auburn Cemetery (Maria White Lowell, James Russell Lowell, Frances Sargent Osgood, and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow). The remaining vocal work is a musical setting of a poem by Emily Dickinson who, while not buried at Mount Auburn, is classified by the archives department as one of the cemetery’s Notable Visitors.
In January of 2017, the works were recorded by a 19-piece chamber orchestra at WGBH Studios of Boston MA, and were released online as a digital album on June 3rd, 2017. The tracks are also featured in Mount Auburn’s new mobile app, so that visitors to the cemetery will be able to experience the music in the setting that inspired it.
Mount Auburn Cemetery was founded in 1831 as the United States’ first rural cemetery. In addition to being a “National Historic Landmark, a botanical garden, an outdoor museum of art and architecture, and an important habitat for urban wildlife”, Mount Auburn is also a strong supporter of the arts. Filmmaker and multi-media artist Roberto Mighty, MFA, the cemetery’s first artist-in-residence, recently launched the online edition of his commissioned work “earth.sky”: a “site-specific, multi-screen digital multimedia installation based on the landscape of the cemetery and the stories of some of the 98,000 people buried there”. Mount Auburn is also home to “A Glimpse Beyond”, an immersive performing arts experience featuring musicians, dancers, and artists that challenges viewers to “reexamine [their] ideas about life and death, joy and sorrow”.
released June 3, 2017
Composed and arranged by Mary Bichner. Conducted by Kristo Kondakçi. Performed by Katharina Giegling (concertmaster), Sonia Deng (violin), Abby Swidler (violin), Christopher McClain (viola I principal, viola soloist), Minjung Chun (viola I), Carrol Lee (viola II principal), Foxman James (viola II), Aron Zelkowicz (cello principal), Nash Tomey (contrabass principal), Arielle Burke (flute), Elizabeth England (oboe), David Angelo (clarinet), Susannah Telsey (bassoon), Evanangelia Leontis (soprano), Mary Bichner (alto), Mali Sastri (tenor), Seth Grondin (bass [vocals]) and Paul Jacobs (piano).

G Funk Specialist
12/21/2000 9:00 PM, Yahoo! Music
It's been a very good year for Dr. Dre . First, he masterminded the Up In Smoke package tour, one of hip-hop's most successful tours ever. Fans who weren't fortunate enough to witness the live performances of Dre, Eminem , Snoop Dogg , Ice Cube , and Xzibit on the tour now have the opportunity to buy an Up In Smoke DVD, which also features exclusive backstage footage.
His own Aftermath record label also released his long-awaited follow-up to The Chronic , Dr. Dre 2001 , which has sold more than 6 million units to date. Aftermath also dropped Eminem's sophomore album, The Marshall Mathers LP , which has sold more than 7 million copies. Meanwhile, No Limit released Snoop Dogg's Tha Last Meal , which features Dre's production and mixing talents on several cuts, and Loud Records released Xzibit's Restless , which Dre executive-produced; sales expectations for both albums are very high.
"I have definitely had a good year," Dre admits, as he sits in his trailer during the video shoot for "X," Xzibit's first single. "It's cool."
Dre seems surprised by the hoopla surrounding his affiliation with Xzibit. "I didn't know [ Restless ] was the most highly anticipated record," he says incredulously. "I knew people were waiting to hear it and sh-t. I didn't know it was like that. That's cool. That's good sh-t. He's a good guy. He deserves it."
Just how did Dre become so intrinsically involved in the making of Xzibit's album? "He just asked me," Dre chuckles. "It wasn't no big decision-making process. He came to the studio and asked me if I would executive-produce his record, and I said, 'Yeah.' We started blueprinting it out, coming up with a plan of how we were going to do it."
This hip-hop veteran may have started out as a member of the legendary Compton rap group N.W.A. , but now he's as famous for his production skills as he is for his own music. This creative genius and savvy businessman is quick to shed some light on the difference between executive-producing an album and producing a song:
"A lot people just figure that they can pay for the record, and get the title of 'executive production' when that's not the case," he explains. "Executive-producing, in my mind, is helping pick the tracks, maybe producing some of the tracks, really being hands-on with the actual music: my saying, 'Xzibit, that track you got from so-and-so is not hot, let's use this track over here from so-and-so. Maybe you should rhyme about this.' Just basically helping put the record together. A lot of records have come out that have executive production credits on them, and it's just people paying for studio time--if that. Producing [on the other hand], is going into the studio and directing a record from bottom to top. My producing a record is my starting from the first hi-hat 'til the mix is done."
As soon as Dre produces a record, he knows whether it's going to be a hit or not. "I have to feel it," he says with an earnest gleam in his eyes, adding with a laugh, "I get this little tingling sensation in my balls and sh-t. Then I know it's right."
So how does Dre think his latest production protégé will sell? Is he getting that familiar tingling sensation? "I think [ Restless ] is going to do well," he predicts. "[Xzibit] will probably do 2 or 3 million copies off of this album, but the next album is going to be the one to look for. I guess I can compare it to Eminem. His first album grabbed everybody's attention; the next one, his album that is out right now, is going to sell 10 to 12 million albums."
Dre has a reputation for being a perfectionist in the studio, and he doesn't deny that. He confirms this assessment with a nod and one word: "Definitely." However, the artists who have worked with him don't seem to mind his perfectionism, considering his track record.
"There is definitely a high standard when you walk into the studio," Xzibit assures. "It's not as strict and straight-up as everybody thinks--it is a work environment, but it's relaxed and impromptu. He works with actual live musicians. You go in with more of a vibe, then once you get a direction going, you put the pieces together."
Eve has been in the studio with Dre working on tunes for her second album, Scorpion , dropping on Ruff Ryders/Interscope on February 20. "We never worked closely before," says the platinum-selling hip-hop diva, who was once signed to Aftermath before eventually signing to the Ruff Ryders ' label, which released her debut, Let There Be Eve...Ruff Ryders' First Lady . "I did one song [with Dre], and I am going back to L.A. to do one more. He wanted me to come up with a certain type of flow. He's really involved as far as how I flow--not so much my words, but my bounce on the track. It's great. He's very creative, and he's very excited about the project, so it's been real good energy."
It will be a challenge for Dre to top the year 2000. In 2001, he'll be turning his attention to some R&B projects, including Truth Hurts, a St. Louis-based R&B songstress signed to Aftermath. He'll also lend his production to some up-and-coming rap acts on a new West Coast rap label called L.A. Confidential.
However, despite all this outside activity, it doesn't seem like fans will have to wait too long for his next solo album. "The Internet's going to be the concept for my next album," Dre says, a surprising revelation considering his lawsuit against Napster in early 2000. "I'm probably going to start on it in summer 2001, and it's probably going to take me 10 months to a year to make the record right."
Seems like for Dre, it'll indeed be 2001: A Musical Odyssey...

"Your dedication, collaborative spirit and energy resonated with our audience and families, and everyone there walked away with a better understanding of our mission, the common thread among all the cultures we celebrated, and the ability of music to unite and heal. Music transcends differences and allows us all to feel the power of being one. That's exactly what we accomplished together."

Cheesie Mack Is Cool in a Duel, Steve Cotler, Random House, 2012
Rating: 1-5 (5 is excellent or a Starred review) 5
What did you like about the book? This series keeps getting better! Cheesie Mack is a 5h grader who is headed off to summer camp. When he and his best friend end up in the Big Guys cabin with his sister’s boyfriend Steve it seems that the summer is ruined. Soon Cheesie and Steve are embroiled in a Cool Duel where there is a vote each day as to which does the coolest thing. Does Cheesie stand a chance? This book is hilariously funny! There is also an interactive aspect to the series, where one can go online to cheesiemack.com and answer questions, give opinions, or just get more info. The best thing is that Cheesie will actually answer back! I eagerly await the next book due in 2013!
What didn’t you like about the book? Nothing
To whom would you recommend this book? I would hand this book to fans of the Wimpy Kid and Big Nate series. Although there are less pictures in Cheesie Mack, readers will love the humor! This is a great series for4th, 5th and 6th grade readers, especially any reluctant readers.
Who should buy this book? Public and elementary school libraries
Where would you shelve it and why? Fiction
Should we (librarians) put this on the top of our “to read” piles? Yes, if you want a really funny book, with a great ending!!!
Reviewer’s Name, Library (or school), City: Catherine Coyne, The Ames Free Library, Easton

Vinyl is making a huge comeback, with sales of records doubling in 2013.
Retinal is a new independent record label specialising in releasing electronic, dance, indie and acoustic sounds on vinyl.
The mastering process for vinyl allows the music to ‘breathe’ and the dynamics to be heard, rather than the digital process which concentrates on loudness but can squish the life out of the music. The physical characteristics of vinyl make for a warm, heavy sound.
For artists, having a vinyl record on sale gives your followers a chance to own a piece of your work, something they can hold in their hand, feel, see and hear – a way of showing love for the sounds they cherish.
It’s for these reasons that record sales are at their highest level for 15 years,* with under-25s the driving force behind the surge. What goes around comes around.
*according to figures from the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) and the Official Charts Company.

Part of an incredibly ambitious, years-in-the-making project, this is just the first volume of a series of novels that will all take place during the combustible Weimar era of the titular city. Drawn with clean lines and an attention to architectural detail that pays homage to such European comics as Hergé's "Tintin," City of Stones follows a young woman art student who starts an affair with a weary leftist journalist against a background of boiling politics and decadence. Filled with rich characters and period detail, even if the follow-up books never come, it will still be one of the premier works of historical fiction in the medium.
This semi-autobiographical novel set in the snowy hinterlands of Wisconsin tells the story of a lonely, artistic young man who struggles with his fundamentalist Christian upbringing when he falls in love. Fluidly told over 582 pages, Blankets magically recreates the high emotional stakes of adolescence. Thompson has set new bars for the medium not just in length, but breadth.
One of the best-selling graphic novels of all time, this black comedy version of Batman's latter days masterfully combines satire with superhero antics without betraying it's central character's core of danger. Along with Alan Moore & Dave Gibbon's Watchmen, it redefined the concept of "superhero," and helped spark the first wave of "serious" interest in comics.
Although best known for his book Ghost World, thanks to the movie version, Dan Clowes' David Boring, about a guy in search of a woman while the world may be ending, marked his first truly novelistic approach to graphical storytelling. Peerless in his ability to create offbeat characters and write sardonic humor, Clowes has lately gotten more experimental in his form, but David Boring remains his most readable and unified book.
The most perfect novel yet seen in this format, Ware innovates in form and in content to create a uniquely American story, both tragic and gut-splittingly funny. Neither smart nor a kid, Jimmy reunites with his long-lost dad, finds him a great disappointment, and discovers an African-American sister he never knew about. Confronting race, history, and family this book proved incontrovertibly that the form could be as deep and complex as any prose novel.
A kind of über graphic novel that collects a series of smaller graphic novels all situated in a small town "somewhere south of the U.S. border," this giant tome by a seminal comic artist will likely be the author's magnum opus. Part of the creative team behind the deeply influential "Love and Rockets" comic book series (along with his equally talented brother Jaime) Gilbert has created a pan-American epic that spans multiple generations of a family run almost exclusively by women. Hernandez' Palomar combines the look of Archie comics with Faulkner's richness of character and place into the melodramatic sweep of a sexy soap opera to create one of the most remarkable works of any narrative art.

Back in December many Atlanta bloggers and myself presented another year of the Atlanta Music Roundtable. The show we presented around it was so successful we couldn’t wait to do another one. We are presenting a show at The Earl that features post-rock pummelers Nigredo, shoegaze from Lucy Dreams, and expansive psychedelic soundscapes from The Electric Nature.
Atlanta has a lot of great talent to showcase and we’re excited to continue the group we formed with the Atlanta Music Roundtable. You can get more familiar with that here if you haven’t yet. This show is on March 27th, 2012 at The Earl in East Atlanta. It’s only $5 and we hope to see everyone come out for a really great event!

I never really took her that seriously until this video. I think the video for Style is definitely a step up for her in regards to artistic expression, and while many viewers have commented that they think the video does not match the song, I disagree.
I love this video! I love the concept and the interchanges that occur between Taylor and model Dominic Sherwood, even thought most of the video does not have them physically interacting. It’s more about the ‘connection’ the couple has and how strong it is when they’re not with each other, just as strong as when they are. This is illustrated clearly with the use of mirrors and projections of each other, on each other.
Taylor starts off the video with a profile view, but with the silhouette of her head changing into a view of Dominic, it insinuates that she has him on her mind. I find this a clever way of saying something without saying anything at all.
The projecting of memories of each other on their bodies continues to reiterate the ‘oneness’ of their relationship as, while looking at Taylor in the video, you’re looking at Dominic, and vice versa…
Not to mention Dominic is my kind of guy (hot!) and his one brown eye/one blue eye (Heterochromia) is so cute! The whole video is ethereal, dream-like, haunting and more like a synopsis of a CW storyline all wrapped up in under 5 minutes. For a young, successful, talented singer/songwriter such as Taylor Swift, I think this artistic direction suits her well.
The nod to Harry Style’s paper plane pendant twice in the video suggest Taylor may have once again written this song about her ex. So was Taylor Swift channeling emotions she felt about Harry Styles (of One Direction) in the video while Dominic Sherwood channeled his feelings for Sarah Hayland (of Modern Family fame)?
Directed by Kyle Newman, the video has little details that, although aren’t hidden, are easy to miss unless you watch the video intently. What do you think of Taylor Swift’s new style of video? While many say it’s Taylor trying too hard to portray a more grown up version of herself, I say as she’s been in the music business for a decent amount of years now, I think she doesn’t have to ‘try’, she just does Taylor.

Today Patrick O’Laoghaire a.k.a I Have A Tribe released his debut EP, Yellow Raincoats. The title track, which premiered a few weeks back on The Line Of Best Fit, is a follow up from 2013’s Monsoon which gained praise from the likes of NME, Notion and Pigeons & Planes.
I Have A Tribe spent a busy 2013 recording the ‘Yellow Raincoats’ EP with Rob Ellis and Conor O’Brien of Villagers, touring Europe with Anna Calvi, opening for Villagers’ Irish homecoming show and performing shows at Electric Picnic and CMJ in New York. With the fruits of those EP sessions ripe and ready to reveal this spring, I Have A Tribe’s blend of plaintive pop and folk-tinged melancholia has never been more evident than on the EP’s title track.
To celebrate the release of his debut EP he will play a string of shows in the coming weeks, including a set at Brighton’s Great Escape Festival today.

A BIT ABOUT ME
My name is Hailey and I simply love making things. Whether it be a video, a song, or an article, I’m always challenging myself to experiment and grow in different crafts. Professionally I create videos at a local studio (#dreamjob), and on the side I make music and write on my blog. In my free time you can find me rambling about movies in the podcast Cinema Roundtable, making way too many Spotify playlists, and googling dogs that are up for adoption.

BHS Presents “All Shook Up” Musical
Basalt Education Foundation is pleased to support the musical-theatre program at Basalt High School with a $5,000 donation this year. Here’s the scoop on this year’s student musical, All Shook Up.
When Brittany von Stein took the job as the Basalt High School choir director last year, she knew she wanted to produce a spring musical that allowed plenty of students to shine.
“I’d heard there would be a lot of talented kids who would audition for the show,” said von Stein. “I went with All Shook Up, because it has multiple lead roles. Plus, the supporting ensemble is just as important as the leads. Every single character helps to tell the story.”
The story is set in 1955 and focuses on an Elvis-inspired “roustabout” named Chad, who rolls into a town under the rule of an uptight mayor. In addition to instigating several mixed-up love stories, he shakes up the staid scene with a whole lot of rock and roll, namely 25 of Elvis’ greatest hits performed by the cast of 24 — from upbeat “Jailhouse Rock” to poignant “Can’t Help Falling in Love.”
The lead role of lip-curling Chad is portrayed by BHS senior Miguel Fabela in his very first theater production ever. “He’s only off stage a total of about 10 minutes,” said producer and music director von Stein. “But he’s totally risen to the occasion. He’s become that character.”
Marisa Post, who has long directed plays and musicals in the valley and serves as All Shook Up‘s director and choreographer, agreed: “Miguel is quite a talent. Though he’s new to the stage, his instincts are so natural, even without instruction. It’s been such a joy to see him go from, ‘I don’t know if I can handle this’ to completely comfortable in the show.”
Post admits she wasn’t familiar with “All Shook Up” before being approached by von Stein to direct the musical. “After reading it I was charmed by the exploration of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night and Elvis’ lyrics,” she said. “I said yes to the job before I even met Brittany in person. From day one, when we started chatting on the phone, I knew it was a good union.”
Von Stein is quick to praise for Post’s expertise. “We’ve got a 40-year age spread between us,” said von Stein, who graduated from Ohio State University with a music education degree in 2015. “But we complement each other really well. She comes in with so much knowledge from years of experience, and I am able to share a fresh approach to things.”
Von Stein credits Post for holding the two dozen student performers to a high standard. “She expects conservatory-quality performances, and the cast has totally stepped up.”
While half the cast is new to performing in high-school musicals, the line-up does feature some key veterans, including senior Courtney Aitken in her fourth BHS musical production. She plays tomboyish, yet hopeful romantic, Natalie opposite Chad. “Courtney has been such a big help and a huge leader in bringing along all the newbies,” said von Stein.
Aitken, who plans to pursue a theatre career after high school, said she’s enjoying All Shook Up for the same reason von Stein chose this particular musical: the unusual number of lead roles. “It’s been so fun watching everyone transform themselves into someone completely different when they step on stage.”
Adds Miguel Fabela, who plays motorcycle-driving Chad: “It’s been quite a ride.”
All Shook Up takes place at Basalt Middle School auditorium Thursday, March 10, 7pm; Friday March 11, 7pm; Saturday March 12, 2pm and 7pm. Cost is $8 students; $12 adults.

Nicole Monroe is a girl with a guitar, a voice, and stories to share. The quirky, New York native began writing as an outlet for a shy and disconnected 13-year-old, finding a way to relate to others while voicing her thoughts and opinions through song. Most of her teenage years were spent recording tapes of original songs in her parents’ Long Island home, sharing them with friends and handing them out at local Open Mic events. She states, “I had always been drawn to the emotion behind everything–be it a song, a movie, sometimes even a news article,” and she has a knack for eloquently expressing emotion through her art. Audiences from Boston, Massachusetts down to Charlotte, North Carolina have experienced the joy, fear, and pain in every word and chord when Monroe performs.
In 2005, Nicole took a grassroots approach and self-engineered/ produced a five-song acoustic EP entitled Notebooks and Pencils, which was predominantly sold at live shows. She has now released her sophomore EP, Just A Kid with Sharon Road West Music. Just A Kid is a collection of artistic rock songs that draws listeners in with engaging musical arrangements and hard-hitting lyrics. First-time listeners will experience an emotional ebb and flow throughout the EP and Monroe wastes no time introducing them to her craft when hitting play. While fans may be accustomed to the mellow, acoustic performer, she and Nashville Producer Sean Power (John Hampson, Blake Lewis), deliver a new, full-band sound on this record.
Nicole’s passion does not end with music. She is a big advocate for charitable work and is donating a percentage of proceeds from Just A Kid to local Non-Profit Organizations that cater to the underserved.

About the game
Blade of Victory is a 2D story-driven turn-based RPG featuring pixel art. The game is mostly inspired by JRPGs such as the Persona (for its gameplay) and Final Fantasy Tactics (for its world and story). The game will take place in a original medieval fantasy world, with all the sword and sorcery it implies (no orcs/elves/dwarves though). The plot will focus on themes such as duty, power, politics and betrayal, and we hope to make it one of the strong points of the game.
Be warned! The game is a work in progress; many features are missing or unpolished and most assets are not final. Your feedback is welcome: tell us what you liked or disliked and what you would like to see added, improved or removed from the game. See the roadmap (in the download section) for more information on know issues and planned features.

This short film titled “Betty in Paris” created by Gabrielle and Ben Blair (of Olive Us video series and Design Mom) is a gorgeous work of art. It immediately inspired me to want to make my own creative videos. From the music to the cinematography to the precious acting by Betty, I fell in love with it and I know you will too. I strive to get inspired everyday and I believe I’ve accomplished that today.
How does it make you feel? Are you inspired? Leave me a comment below.

When I think of Las Vegas, I think of an all-out experience filled with excitement and no one to tell me what the responsible thing to do is. There are endless games to play, free drinks and more shows and shopping than one lifetime can accomplish. Well, you don't have to be irresponsible to play the Vegas Trip version of blackjack, and a consistent player will have a chance to really make a killing with this version.
What makes the Vegas Trip version so different than the classic versions of blackjack has to do with the splitting and doubling. If you find yourself with a pair, you are allowed to split, including both face and value pairs. If you are dealt another set of pairs, you are allowed to split again, up to 4 hands! Remember, in order to split, you must also be able to double your original bet for your new split hand.
Doubling is allowed to players on any two cards! While the classic versions of blackjack require you to have 9,10, 11, Vegas Trip will let you decide when you can double down. To double your bet, place your chips next to your initial bet amount. By the rules of Vegas Trip, you are even allowed to double after re-splitting.
Mentioned above are some of the great differences between the classic and Vegas Trip versions of blackjack. In general, the rest of the rules are the same. There are still 4 decks used with 52 cards in each deck. If you win with a Blackjack, then you are paid 3 to 2, and all other wins are paid 2 to 1. The dealer is still going to play strictly by the house strategy and will always stand on a 17.
With a game that has the potential to raise the bet so high with just one hand, you should know that there is no surrender in Vegas Trip and if you decide that insurance is a good idea, it pays 2 to 1. The trick to playing a good game of Vegas Trip blackjack, is to keep your head about you. The basic strategy and card counting systems that you have worked so hard to internalize must still be used consistently. Remember that, and you will have a blast with this version of blackjack.

Film Sprout bridges the divide between filmmakers who have created socially-driven documentaries and the communities that eagerly want to come together to experience them. Founder Caitlin Boyle grew her own experience into one that has helped countless films connect with viewers outside of the traditional distribution model.
“In the end, we’re primarily interested in whether a film stirs the passions and emotions of regular, lay audiences—teachers, parents, community activists.”
Who decides what films you get to see? Unless you live in a city where there are off-the-radar independent film organizations like Rooftop Films or Outfest, your options are essentially at the whim of major film companies' distribution teams to decide which movies to pick up and release in theaters. What if a documentary film has a particularly challenging or even subversive theme? Chances are only those lucky enough to attend the film festival circuit, or know the filmmakers, will get to see it.
Such was the scenario of Caitlin Boyle, seeing her future husband Curt Ellis and his partners move into post-production on their 'buddy-flick/corn-industry-expose' King Corn in 2007. "As the film opened in select art house and independent cinemas," Caitlin remembers, "the filmmaking team and I noticed there was a huge, untapped groundswell of demand from folks outside the major theatrical markets and metropolitan centers. And we realized that we had no organized platform or infrastructure for bringing them the film."
Inspired by the way grassroots organizations were embracing the documentary, she set out to correct that gap by creating an organized and accessible way for community groups to present the film. "By responding to—and eventually proactively courting—the interest and enthusiasm of nonprofit groups, educators, activists and community advocates, I helped to expand King Corn’s public reach from about 60 art house cinemas to more than 200 community-sponsored exhibitions held nationwide in about five months. All along the way, I earned direct revenue for the filmmakers, and paved the way for indirect revenues in the form of DVD sales."
Since then, Caitlin and her small team at Film Sprout have served ten feature documentaries, "and we’ve helped dozens of additional filmmakers who are spearheading community distribution platforms for their own projects, with our guidance," she prides.
Most importantly, Caitlin acts as a bridge between filmmakers and their audiences. "We’re increasingly living in a time when people get their entertainment and their news and their diversions alone and in private, but Film Sprout gives people an opportunity to do something a little more old-fashioned: to come together, in a physical space, around a story," she reflects. "Even as technology moves us in another direction, there’s still a powerful pull toward community and togetherness in the way we view media and communication and the way we work toward social change. "

The Pokey Ball Jumper is a digital entertainment application wherein participants assume control of a spherical object with the objective of surmounting various impediments and accumulating points.
Within the context of the game, the player is required to manipulate the ball's movements by utilizing either the joystick or employing on-screen gestures. In order to minimize point deductions or loss of life, it is imperative for individuals to navigate through a series of obstacles, including but not limited to spikes and other barriers, with caution and precision. Simultaneously, players are required to amass valuable objects in order to augment their scores and gain access to previously inaccessible levels.
Games with Pokey Ball Jumpers are frequently built with visually captivating graphics and dynamically engaging soundtracks, so cultivating an exhilarating entertainment encounter for players. Simultaneously, the inherent competitiveness of the game serves as a catalyst for players to actively engage in overcoming obstacles and enhancing their abilities.

I play with NOCB weekly (our website here). Right now we’re preparing for our two July 4th gigs. Knowing we have to please the audience who want to hear things they know, we’re drowning in movie theme songs, patriotic medleys, and showtunes. I have to admit I am enjoying the Lennon/McCartney portrait..
The best quote of the night came from a horn player pursuing her PhD in Music Education who noted that the only thing worse than a John Williams piece is a John Williams piece arranged by Robert W. Smith… (okay, so I wish I could claim that quote – the best I can do is archive it on my blog).
After almost fours years of membership in NOCB, these will be my last two concerts with them as I prepare to move to Florida. The band is several steps above most civic/community ensembles, and just one step below the esteemed Northshore Concert Band in Evanston, Illinois. The group will get there though. We’ve performed some incredible wind band repertoire together. I can’t wait to see the direction they take in the next few years, and can’t wait to hop back in my seat (if there’s a spot) when I return to New Orleans in a few years…
Here are two clips from our last concert in May:

Picking up the Pieces
These are all titles of original instrumental guitar compositions by guitarist Patrick Smith. I met Patrick on Twitter. His music is that which comes from the heart and ears of one who is awake, paying attention, adventurous and curious. The songs are reflective, evocative, sometimes “netherworldly.”
To me, they ask questions rather than make statements.
I’ve been looking for a way to share a song of his with you for months now, but neither my blog service nor my Mystery Message service could handle the file size. Today, a You Tube video of images accompanied by one of Patrick’s pieces was uploaded and so now, I can share his music with you by way of You Tube.
You can sample more of his music on his website. If you like Patrick’s music, please support him by paying the small fee to download it for your mp3 player.
Here is: Cloud Shepherd. Thank you Patrick!
And thank you T J Matthews for your beautiful images! (T J is a neighbor of Patrick’s with no site to which I might link you)

|"I Want to Hold Your Hand"|
|Single by the Beatles|
|Recorded||17 October 1963|
|The Beatles UK singles chronology|
|The Beatles US singles chronology|
"I Want to Hold Your Hand" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles. Written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, and recorded on 17 October 1963, it was the first Beatles record to be made using four-track recording equipment.
With advance orders exceeding one million copies in the United Kingdom, "I Want to Hold Your Hand" would have gone straight to the top of the British record charts on its day of release (29 November 1963) had it not been blocked by the group's first million-seller "She Loves You", their previous UK single, which was having a resurgence of popularity following intense media coverage of the group. Taking two weeks to dislodge its predecessor, "I Want to Hold Your Hand" stayed at number one for five weeks and remained in the UK top 50 for 21 weeks in total.
It was also the group's first American number-one hit, entering the Billboard Hot 100 chart on 18 January 1964 at number 45 and starting the British Invasion of the American music industry. By 1 February it topped the Hot 100, and stayed there for seven weeks before being replaced by "She Loves You". It remained on the Billboard chart for 15 weeks. "I Want to Hold Your Hand" became the Beatles' best-selling single worldwide, selling more than 12 million copies. In 2018, Billboard magazine named it the 48th biggest hit of all time on the Billboard Hot 100. In the UK, it was the second-highest-selling single of the 1960s, behind "She Loves You".
Background and composition
Capitol Records' rejection of the group's recordings in the US was now Brian Epstein's main concern, and he encouraged Lennon and McCartney to write a song to appeal specifically to the American market. George Martin, however, had no such explicit recollections, believing that Capitol were left with no alternative but to release "I Want to Hold Your Hand" due to increasing demand for the group's product.
McCartney had recently moved into 57 Wimpole Street, London, where he was lodging as a guest of Dr Richard and Margaret Asher, and whose daughter, actress Jane Asher, had become McCartney's girlfriend earlier in the year. This location briefly became Lennon and McCartney's new writing base, taking over from McCartney's Forthlin Road home in Liverpool. Margaret Asher taught the oboe in the "small, rather stuffy music room" in the basement where Lennon and McCartney sat at the piano and composed "I Want to Hold Your Hand". In September 1980, Lennon told Playboy magazine:
We wrote a lot of stuff together, one on one, eyeball to eyeball. Like in 'I Want to Hold Your Hand,' I remember when we got the chord that made the song. We were in Jane Asher's house, downstairs in the cellar playing on the piano at the same time. And we had, 'Oh you-u-u/ got that something ...' And Paul hits this chord and I turn to him and say, 'That's it!' I said, 'Do that again!' In those days, we really used to absolutely write like that—both playing into each other's noses.
In 1994, McCartney agreed with Lennon's description of the circumstances surrounding the composition of "I Want to Hold Your Hand", saying: "'Eyeball to eyeball' is a very good description of it. That's exactly how it was. 'I Want to Hold Your Hand' was very co-written." According to Ian MacDonald, in keeping with how Lennon and McCartney collaborated at that time, lyrically bland, random phrases were most likely called out by the pair; if the phrases fitted the overall sound, they would stay. The song's title was probably a variation of "I Wanna Be Your Man", which the Beatles had recently recorded at EMI Studios.
Reminiscent of Tin Pan Alley and Brill Building techniques and an example of modified 32-bar form, "I Want to Hold Your Hand" is written on a two-bridge model, with only an intervening verse to connect them. The song has no real "lead" singer, as Lennon and McCartney sing alternately in unison and in harmony with each other.
The song is in the key of G major and lyrically opens two beats early with "Oh yeah, I'll tell you something" with a D-B, B-D melody note drop and rise over an I (G) chord. Controversy exists over the landmark chord that Lennon stated McCartney hit on the piano while they were composing the song. Wolf Marshall considers it is the minor vi (Em) chord (the third chord in the I–V7–vi (G–D7–Em) progression). Walter Everett is of the same opinion. Dominic Pedler claims, however, that more surprising is the melody note drop from B to F♯ against a III7 (B7) chord on "understand".
The Beatles recorded "I Want to Hold Your Hand" at EMI Studios in Studio 2 on 17 October 1963. This song, along with the single's B-side, "This Boy", was the first Beatles song to be recorded with four-track technology. The two songs were recorded on the same day, and each needed seventeen takes to complete. Mono and stereo mixing was done by George Martin on 21 October 1963; further stereo mixes were done on 8 June 1965, for compilations released by EMI affiliates in Australia and the Netherlands, and on 7 November 1966.
"I Want to Hold Your Hand" was one of two Beatles songs (along with "She Loves You" as "Sie liebt dich") to be later recorded in German, entitled "Komm, gib mir deine Hand" (literally "Come, give me your hand"). Both songs were translated by Luxembourger musician Camillo Felgen, under the pseudonym of "Jean Nicolas". Odeon, the German arm of EMI (the parent company of the Beatles' record label, Parlophone) was convinced that the Beatles' records would not sell in Germany unless they were sung in German. The Beatles detested the idea, and when they were due to record the German version on 27 January 1964 at EMI's Pathe Marconi Studios in Paris (where the Beatles were performing 18 days of concerts at the Olympia Theatre) they chose to boycott the session. Their record producer, George Martin, having waited some hours for them to show up, was outraged and insisted that they give it a try. Two days later, the Beatles recorded "Komm, gib mir deine Hand", one of the few times in their career that they recorded outside London. However, Martin later conceded: "They were right, actually, it wasn't necessary for them to record in German, but they weren't graceless, they did a good job".
"Komm, gib mir deine Hand" was released as a German single in March 1964. In July, the song appeared in full stereo in the United States on the Beatles' Capitol LP Something New. (That album was released in CD form for the first time in 2004, on The Capitol Albums, Volume 1, and then rereleased in 2014, individually and in the boxed set The US Albums.) "Komm, gib mir deine Hand" also appeared on the compilations Past Masters and Mono Masters.
Promotion and release
In the United Kingdom, "She Loves You" (released in August) had shot back to the number-one position in November following blanket media coverage of the Beatles (described as Beatlemania). Mark Lewisohn later wrote: "'She Loves You' had already sold an industry-boggling three quarters of a million before these fresh converts were pushing it into seven figures. And at this very moment, just four weeks before Christmas, with everyone connected to the music and relevant retail industries already lying prone in paroxysms of unimaginable delight, EMI pulled the trigger and released 'I Want to Hold Your Hand'. And then it was bloody pandemonium."
On 29 November 1963, Parlophone Records released "I Want to Hold Your Hand" in the UK, with "This Boy" as the single's B-side. Demand had been building for quite a while, as evidenced by the one million advance orders for the single. When it was finally released, the response was phenomenal. A week after it entered the British charts, on 14 December 1963, it knocked "She Loves You" off the top spot, the first instance of an act taking over from itself at number one in British history, and it clung to the top spot for five weeks. It stayed in the charts for another 15 weeks and made a one-week return to the charts on 16 May 1964. Beatlemania was peaking at that time; during the same period, the Beatles set a record by occupying the top two positions on both the album and single charts in the UK.
EMI and Brian Epstein finally convinced American label Capitol Records, a subsidiary of EMI, that the Beatles could make an impact in the US, leading to the release of "I Want to Hold Your Hand" with "I Saw Her Standing There" on the B-side as a single on 26 December 1963. Capitol had previously resisted issuing Beatle recordings in the US. This resulted in the relatively modest Vee-Jay and Swan labels releasing the group's earlier Parlophone counterparts in the US. Seizing the opportunity, Epstein demanded US$40,000 from Capitol to promote the single (the most the Beatles had ever previously spent on an advertising campaign was US$5,000). The single had actually been intended for release in mid-January 1964, coinciding with the planned appearance of the Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show. However, a fourteen-year-old fan of the Beatles, Marsha Albert, wanted to hear the Beatles on the radio earlier. Later she said:
It wasn't so much what I had seen, it's what I had heard. They had a scene where they played a clip of "She Loves You" and I thought it was a great song ... I wrote that I thought the Beatles would be really popular here, and if [deejay Carroll James] could get one of their records, that would really be great.
James was the DJ for WWDC, a radio station in Washington, DC. Eventually he decided to pursue Albert's suggestion to him and asked the station's promotion director to get British Overseas Airways Corporation to ship in a copy of "I Want to Hold Your Hand" from Britain. Albert related what happened next: "Carroll James called me up the day he got the record and said 'If you can get down here by 5 o'clock, we'll let you introduce it.'" Albert managed to get to the station in time, and introduced the record with: "Ladies and gentlemen, for the first time on the air in the United States, here are the Beatles singing 'I Want to Hold Your Hand'."
The song proved to be a huge hit, a surprise for the station since they catered mainly to a more staid audience, which would normally be expecting songs from singers such as Andy Williams or Bobby Vinton instead of rock and roll. James took to playing the song repeatedly on the station, often turning down the song in the middle to make the declaration, "This is a Carroll James exclusive", to avoid theft of the song by other stations.
Capitol threatened to seek a court order banning airplay of "I Want to Hold Your Hand", which was already being spread by James to a couple of DJs in Chicago and St. Louis. James and WWDC ignored the threat, and Capitol came to the conclusion that they could well take advantage of the publicity, releasing the single two weeks ahead of schedule on 26 December.
The demand was insatiable; in the first three days alone, a quarter of a million copies had already been sold (10,000 copies In New York City every hour). Capitol was so overloaded by the demand, it contracted part of the job of pressing copies off to Columbia Records and RCA. By 18 January, the song had started its 15-week chart run, and on 1 February, the Beatles finally achieved their first number one in Billboard (replacing "There! I've Said It Again" by Bobby Vinton, emulating the success of another British group, the Tornados with "Telstar", which topped the Billboard chart for three weeks in December 1962. "I Want to Hold Your Hand" finally relinquished the number-one spot after seven weeks, succeeded by the song they had knocked off the top in Britain: "She Loves You". "I Want to Hold Your Hand" sold around five million copies in the US alone. The replacement of themselves at the top of the US charts was the first time since Elvis Presley in 1956, with "Love Me Tender" beating out "Don't Be Cruel", that an act had dropped off the top of the American charts only to be replaced by another of their releases. "I Want to Hold Your Hand" also finished as the number one song for 1964, according to Billboard. In 2013, Billboard listed it as the 44th most successful song of all-time on the Hot 100.
The American single's front and back sleeves featured a photograph of the Beatles with Paul McCartney holding a cigarette. In 1984, Capitol Records airbrushed out the cigarette for the re-release of the single.
"I Want to Hold Your Hand" was also released in America on the album Meet the Beatles!, which altered the American charts by actually outselling the single. Beforehand, the American markets were more in favour of hit singles instead of whole albums; however, two months after the album's release, it had shipped 3,650,000 copies, over 200,000 ahead of the "I Want to Hold Your Hand" single at 3,400,000.
The song was included on the 1964 Canadian release The Beatles' Long Tall Sally. The November 1966 stereo remix appeared on 1966's A Collection of Beatles Oldies, and on several later Beatles compilation albums, including 1973's 1962–1966, 1982's 20 Greatest Hits, and 2000's 1. The 2009 CD rerelease of the Beatles' catalog included the 1966 stereo remix on Past Masters and the original mono mix on Mono Masters.
Reception and legacy
The song was greeted by raving fans on both sides of the Atlantic but was dismissed by some critics as nothing more than another fad song that would not hold up to the test of time. Cynthia Lowery of the Associated Press expressed her exasperation with Beatlemania by saying of the Beatles: "Heaven knows we've heard them enough. It has been impossible to get a radio weather bulletin or time signal without running into 'I Want to Hold Your Hand'." Esquire's music critic David Newman wrote, "Terrible awful. ...It's the bunk. The Beatles are indistinguishable from a hundred other similar loud and twanging rock-and-roll groups. They aren't talented singers (as Elvis was), they aren't fun (as Elvis was), they aren't anything." In its contemporary review of the US single, Cash Box described it as "an infectious twist-like thumper that could spread like wildfire here."
In his book Revolution in the Head, Ian MacDonald wrote that the song "electrified American pop", adding: "every American artist, black or white, asked about 'I Want to Hold Your Hand' has said much the same: it altered everything, ushering in a new era and changing their lives." Bob Dylan said: "They were doing things nobody was doing. Their chords were outrageous, just outrageous, and their harmonies made it all valid." For a time Dylan thought the Beatles were singing "I get high" instead of "I can't hide". He was surprised when he met them and found out that none of them had actually smoked marijuana. The Beach Boys' Brian Wilson recalled his initial reaction to the song: "I flipped. It was like a shock went through my system ... I immediately knew that everything had changed"; he said that he and Mike Love had a meeting to discuss the challenge presented by the Beatles, as "For a while there, we felt really threatened." In another interview, Wilson said the song "wasn't even that great a record, but they [female Beatles fans] just screamed at it ... It got us off our asses in the studio ... we said 'look, don't worry about the Beatles, we'll cut our own stuff.'"
The Beatles left behind more great music than anybody can process in a lifetime ... Just check out "I Want to Hold Your Hand", which explodes out of the speakers with the most passionate singing, drumming, lyrics, guitars, and girl-crazy howls ever – it's no insult to the Beatles to say they never topped this song because nobody else has either ... It's the most joyous three minutes in the history of human noise.
At the annual Ivor Novello Awards, "I Want to Hold Your Hand" finished second in the category "The 'A' Side of the Record Issued in 1963 Which Achieved the Highest Certified British Sales", behind "She Loves You". The song was nominated for the 1964 Grammy Award for Record of the Year, but the award went to Astrud Gilberto and Stan Getz for "The Girl from Ipanema". However, in 1998, the song won the Grammy Hall of Fame Award. It has also made the list in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll. In addition, the Recording Industry Association of America, the National Endowment for the Arts and Scholastic Press have named "I Want to Hold Your Hand" as one of the Songs of the Century. In 2004, it was ranked number 16 on Rolling Stone's list of "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time". In 2010, Rolling Stone placed the song at number 2 on its list of the 100 Greatest Beatles Songs, after "A Day in the Life". It was ranked number 2 in Mojo's list on the "100 Records That Changed the World", after Little Richard's "Tutti Frutti". The song was ranked number 39 on Billboard's All Time Top 100. In 2011, Time included the song on its list of the All-TIME 100 Songs. As of December 2018[update], "I Want to Hold Your Hand" was the 18th best-selling single of all time in the UK.
Starting at the song's final week at the top of the American charts, the Beatles have the all-time record of seven number-one songs in a one-year period. In order, these were "I Want to Hold Your Hand", "She Loves You", "Can't Buy Me Love", "Love Me Do", "A Hard Day's Night", "I Feel Fine" and "Eight Days a Week". It was also the first of seven songs written by Lennon–McCartney to top the US charts in 1964—an all-time record for writing the most songs to hit number one on the US charts in the same calendar year.

This memoir was a charming little blast from the past. It is the telling of Dean Wareham’s life – what formed his ideology, both politically and musically, and the events that shaped his career, starting in his teenage years in the 70s to the final days of his 90’s band Luna, which broke up in 2005. It is surprisingly detailed – I wasn’t expecting a rock star’s account of drug-tinged memories to be so thorough. Apparently he kept a diary. At times, he mentions specific quotes people said, how they said them, and where they were to create snippets of frozen moments, usually humorous ones – like when he recalls a conversation between Anthony Kiedis (Red Hot Chili Peppers) and his girlfriend in a hotel gym concerning buying workout equipment for their guest house.
The intimate tone of the book blossoms from the sometimes painful details Wareham shares. Besides the somewhat gory description of Galaxie 500’s breakup, Wareham also discloses blow-by-blow tellings of his affair with Luna’s bass player, Britta Phillips (his now wife), and a few other instances of infidelity to his first wife.
I originally bought the book for research into the music industry for my Ana Marie series (first book Call MeAna). I waited until the end of the book to youtube songs from the memoir – I’d never heard of Galaxie 500 or Luna. I really like their sound. In fact, I like it so much, I may have to write a scene to it. I was also pleasantly surprised there are some songs offered on Amazon Prime music.
Wareham’s major bands: Galaxie 500 (87 – 91), Luna (91 – 05), Dean & Britta (07 – current)
