Pairings, the new wine and culinary center in downtown Geneva, launches at Vintage Ohio August 5th and 6th

Imagine a facility in Geneva that brings millions of dollars of annual revenue, dozens of jobs, increased regional tourism, provides useful educational opportunities, showcases local and Ohio food and wine and is self-sustaining in the fi rst year. This is the ambi-tious mission behind Pairings, Ohio’s Wine and Culinary Experience. The launch of the initiative, scheduled for August 5th and 6th at Vintage Ohio, will introduce the concept and plans to the public. The planned 38,000 square foot Pairings facility will house a full-service restaurant, banquet hall, high end business offi ces, two wine incubators, a gift shop and more. The center will also host Kent State University Ashtabula Campus’ Viticulture Enology Science and Technology Alliance (VESTA) degree program, the only program of its kind in a multi-state area that focuses on agricul-tural grape growing and wine making. A concept this large has been years in the making. Geneva city manager, Jim Pearson, is always looking for innovative ways to revitalize the downtown area. One successful growth strategy that Pearson subscribes to is asset-based economic development, wherein a community takes something that is already in the area, and builds upon it. Geneva will prob-ably not become a biotech hotbed. But, the Geneva area has a very strong agriculture and viticulture environment. Pearson then talked to Donniella Winchell, executive director of Ohio Wine Producers Association, and in 2009 the idea took off. A volunteer ad hoc committee was established, and nearly a dozen local business and community leaders were asked to join and begin exploring a facility that would bring jobs and tourism to downtown Geneva. The volunteer committee, now the Board of Trust-ees, includes Jennifer Brown, Lauren Gardner, Serge Grenier, Cliff Henry, Jim Hockaday, Ken Johnson , Shirley Lehmann, Jim Pearson, Jeff Piotrowski, Donniella Winchell, Mark Winchell, Tammy Shuttleworth, and new addition Tatiana Lechowick Parker. The committee recently hired a project manager/fundraiser to bring them closer to the Phase 1 launch, Phase 2 capital campaign and Phase 3 groundbreaking. Kristen Dunn brings nearly a decade of development, fundraising and project management experience. Will Pairings be able to succeed? The concept does have several things going for it. In addition to a dogged and almost evangelis-tic dedication by trustees, recent independent survey results have been very positive, there’s a high-growth trend right now called culinary tourism, and the trustees have studied similar successful facilities in other wine growing regions of the country. “We’ve spent thousands of hours in development, a very signifi cant amount of time,” said Jennifer Brown, assistant city manager with Geneva. “We’ve examined every angle to make sure this would work. If the feasibility study had come back negative, we would have walked away.”

The independent feasibility study she refers to, funded by a $20,000 grant from Growth Partnership for Ashtabula County, was conducted late last year by Poggemeyer Design Group. The study estimates such a center could bring 90,000 visitors in the fi rst year of operation, although trustees are using more conservative number such as 60,000, 75,000 and 90,000 for the fi rst three years, respectively. That seems like an aggressive number until it’s put into perspective. The Geneva State Park estimates that half a million visitors come to the park annually, 30,000 visit the average northeast Ohio winery and the Ge-neva Grape JAMboree draws several thousand people. “Tourism brings nearly $340 million to Ashtabula County each year,” said Mark Winchell, president of the Pairings Board of Trustees and Executive Director at Ashtabula County Convention & Visitors Bureau. “That is all done with very little tie into one of the fastest growing segments of the tourism in-dustry, culinary tourism. People travel to local regions to ‘taste the local fl avor.’ We can use this opportunity to economically benefi t our region: jobs for our residents, additional retail sales, sustainable markets for our farmers and growers.” According to trustees, Pairings’ pitch for funding will offer the opportunity to revolu-tionize and re-brand the community, the region and the grape and wine community and it will also be a vehicle to dramatically increase eco-nomic investment and tourism dollars fl owing into the community and the region. “When we begin Phase II as a regional economic development project, start-up capi-tal and initial operating capital will be raised from available government grants, interested corporations, regional foundations, low-cost loans and benevolent individuals,” said Dunn. As a 501(C3) non-profi t operation, Pairings will reinvest its earnings in the center and the community. Individuals currently have the opportunity to contribute on several founder’s levels. More information will soon be avail-able at www.pairingsohio.com. The city’s involvement is in a supportive role. “Challenges are evident all throughout Ashtabula County, but we have rounded the corner and are on the cusp of an incredible opportunity,” said Winchell. “As we look to shape a stronger economic future for our children, Pairings will be the catalyst for the revitalization of our downtown. The City of Geneva has a rich history. From visiting presi-dents, to industrial might with True Temper and nearly fi ve decades of the Grape JAM-boree, Geneva has endured and been looked upon as a leader in Ashtabula County.”

Murder Mystery: Pardon my Chardonnay...

Coming August 5 and 6 is the ever more popular [and nationally recognized] wine, food and lifestyle event called Vintage Ohio. More than thirty thousand people from twenty states will participate in Vintage Ohio to sample wines offered by twenty fi ve wineries. They will enjoy great food and listen to the best regional bands at the Lake Farmpark and learn from wine experts in the American Wine Society Sensory Tent. They will marvel at spectacular Friday fi reworks, taste dozens of Ohio based gourmet foods sit through cooking classes by famed local chef and author Loretta Paganini, shop to their heart’s delight……all on the beautiful grounds of the Lake Farmpark in Kirtland. Vintage Ohio is just one of hundreds of great American wine and food events as districts across the country will celebrate their vintages at similar events all summer long. Festivals provide the perfect venue for wine lovers at all levels of sophistication to taste, learn and enjoy. Those with experienced palates can chat with winemakers about har-vest dates, vinifi cation techniques, varietal nu-ances and dozens of shades of distinction. For those intimidated by wine, the ‘festival format’ is relaxed and straightforward, providing the prospect of discovering one or two wines that simply ‘taste great.’ Those with some basic wine knowledge can move around the tents to compare Rieslings, Chardonnays or Cabernets made by the presenting winemakers. ‘Food-ies’ will be able to match fi ne cuisine with two

or three or more varietals. Wine appreciation seminars and cooking demonstrations broaden understanding for all. Getting the most out of an outdoor wine event requires a bit of planning. Since the average visitor spends several hours on site, sunscreen and comfortable shoes are essential. Once a wine glass is in hand, whites should be sampled before reds, dry wines before sweet ones. Interspersing wine varieties with com-plementary food selections increase apprecia-tion possibilities. Taking notes are important to record favorite selections. Shopping among the crafters, wandering through other exhibits, enjoying great entertainment and attending a cooking class will allow encourage guests to pace their wine consumption. Bringing a designated driver along ensures everyone will get home safely. Taking home some selec-tions from the wine store will extend the total experience to a future dinner party or festive gathering. Wine festivals offer entertainment, educa-tion, a relaxed environment and award win-ning wines to pair with fi ne regional cuisine. With just a little planning, they can offer an incredibly enjoyable summer experience. For more information: [email protected]

Blue Lunch Releases New CDSAXOPHONE SHOOTOUT II

Blue Lunch has released their sixth CD, Saxophone Shootout II. Those of you who were a part of the packed house at Nighttown for the recording of the CD, back on a wintry Saturday night know what an electrifying eve-ning it was. If you weren’t there, soon you’ll be able to re-create that evening in the comfort of your own home, or behind the wheel of your car, with the Sax Shootout II CD. That’s right - the CD is mixed, mastered and available now. The effort contains over anhour of great live material, featuring new tunes that showcase three of Cleveland’s fi nest saxplayers. An upcoming CD Release Party is in the works - keep checking the Blue Lunch website and Facebook page for future news on that. But until then - Saxophone Shootout II is available from the usual sources, at the Blue Lunch shows (of course), from bluelunch.com,, Amazon.com, and by download from Itunes, Rhapsody, Napster, Amazon Mp3, Bestbuy Digital and more. Blue Lunch held the fi rst Saxophone Shootout in January of 2004. The event washeld in a small former church social hall owned by the Cleveland Public Theater. The band brought in different saxophone players to represent the East and West coasts, and the Midwest. Representing the West coast was Johnny Viau; the East coast was represented

by “Sax” Gordon Beadle, and the Midwest by Tony Koussa. Jr. Also on the bill were Little Frank and the Premiers from Indiana. Blue Lunch had just returned from Washington, D.C. where they had played at George Bush’s Inaugural Ball, (“one of the strangest gigs we’ve ever done,” says guitarist Bob Frank.) He was fi ghting the winter fl u and could barely make it through, but it turned out to be a great night, and the guys vowed to do it again sometime. In March of 2011 the band booked them-selves into Nighttown, Cleveland’s world-famous jazz club, to do it again. This time they decided to feature all home-grown talent, the three sax players they perform with most often: Chris Burge, Keith McKelley, and the return of Tony Koussa Jr. The club was packed for the night’s show and they had de-cided ahead of time to record the performance with the intention of releasing a live disc, their fi rst live recording since the band’s very fi rst CD release, Recorded Live at Wilbert’s. The crowd, well-fed on Nighttown’s delicious cuisine, was boisterous and enthusiastic. “Tony, Keith, and Chris fed off each other’s energy and played their hearts out,” says Bob Frank. The CD kicks ass from start to fi nish, with lively interpretations of blues classics like Joe Liggins’ “Honeydripper”, Lowell Fulsom’s “Reconsider Baby” (with Mike

Rubin on trumpet) and “I Just Got Lucky” by Charles Gatemouth Brown. Blue Lunch is one of the tightest bands around, with all solid players, but what I love about this band the most is their taste! They uncover obscure nuggets like the twelve-bar “If It Ain’t Me”, which features some smokin’ hot harmonica by Pete London, and Joe Lutcher’s “Foothill Drive”, a rollicking instrumental that really showcases the horn section. George Freeman’s “Lowe Groovin’” has Scott Flowers thumping out a mean stripper beat, along with a great keyboard solo by Mike Sands. Track six is the saxophone workout “Tenor Madness”, penned by the great Sonny Rollins. Another fi ne instrumental is David Burns’ “Rapid Shave”, a song made famous in the sixties by ShirleyScott, “Queen of the Organ.” The album con-tains one original tune from their fi fth CD,Sideswiped, the tongue-in-cheek number, “Chinese Knock-off”, written by Bob Frank. The CD signs off with Sammy Price’s “Rib Joint” – punctuated by bass player Ray De-Forest in his unmistakable baritone, with all players trading licks “like nobody’s bizness.” (I never heard a song about ribs that I didn’t like!) Blue Lunch is an eight piece ensemble, specializing in Chicago-style blues, jazz,jump swing, rhythm and blues, doo-wop and soul. They have played events as diverse as the Pittsburgh Blues Festival, Cow Pie Blues


Fest, and the Inaugural Ball. The group has garnered glowing reviews in national blues publications such as Blueswax and earned critical acclaim worldwide. They have won numerous awards, including Free Times Best Band in Jazz and Swing categories, and were the 2009 winners of the Cleveland Blues Chal-lenge, chosen to represent our city in Memphis for the International Blues Challenge, where they did us proud!

$30.00 advance / $35.00 day of show

Eric Johnson’s stature as one of the premier guitar players in contem-porary music is his artistic trump card, backed by a Grammy Award and fi ve nominations, platinum album, Top 10 hits like “Cliffs Of Dover,” praise from critics and the esteem of his peers. But the full hand of his talents marks him as well as a gifted songwriter, dynamic live performer, singer, pianist, song interpreter, and creator of a rich and diverse musical legacy. His myriad and distinctive musical gifts are vividly evident on Johnson’s aptly titlednew album, Up Close, The new 15-track disc fi nds the noted master craftsman cutting loose,roaming through variations on the rock, blues, pop, country and jazz all found at the core of his sound, pushing the dynamic range of his artistry, and mixing it up with such friends and peers as guitarists Jimmie Vaughan and Sonny

Landreth and guest singers Steve Miller, Jonny Lang and Malford Milligan. Johnson leapt to the forefront of contem-porary music some 20 years ago as “anextraordinary guitar player accessible to ordi-nary music fans,” as the Memphis CommercialAppeal hails him, with his landmark million selling 1990 album Ah Via Musicom. Lauded as a “recording [that] has reached near-classic proportions within the guitar community” by All Music Guide, it was preceded by dedicated groundwork as a live performer that marked him as a talent bound for great things. And it’s been followed by a diverse and fascinating musical journey that inspired The New Age Music Guide to rave that “Eric Johnson plays guitar the way Michelangelo painted ceilings: with a colorful vibrancy that’s more real than life.” His many achievements include being enshrined in Guitar Player’s Gallery of Greats and named one of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of the 20th Century by Musician magazine alongside numerous other awards. He also enjoys the admiration of many of his fellow players and has performed and/or recorded with such notables as Chet Atkins, Steve Vai, and Joe Satriani. He was tapped by Eric Clapton to appear at the 2004 Crossroads Gui-tar Festival and plays his second stint of the Experience Hendrix tour in fall 2010. He has paid homage in song to such players as Jerry Reed (“Tribute to Jerry Reed” on his album Bloom), fellow Texan Stevie Ray Vaughan (the Grammy-nominated track “SRV”)

and Wes Montgomery (who Johnson saluted in his Ah Via Musicom song “East Wes”), and boasts both a signature Fender Stratocaster electric and Martin MC-40 acoustic guitar. His Grammy Award winning “Cliffs of Dover” is featured in the video game Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock as the fi nal winning challenge.

Native, Rick Stone, Returns from NYC to

Celebrate Newest CD Release

NYC guitarist and Cleve-land native, Rick Stone returns to Cleveland’s Nighttown for a special hometown gig, celebrating the re-lease of his latest effort, Rick Stone Trio “Fractals”. Featuring: Dave Morgan-acoustic bass and Ron Godale-drums. This new release is Stone’s fi fth recording as a leader, and features his regular NYC work-ing group; bassist Marco Panascia and drummer Tom Pollard. Rick began playing guitar at age nine, here in his hometown of Cleveland. He developed an early affi nity for the blues, but it was in the mid-seventies that his passion for jazz was sparked after hearing a live performance of saxophonist Sonny Stitt. He left Cleveland in 1982, attended Berklee College of Music and then settled in New York, where he found a fertile and stimulating environment in Barry Harris’ Jazz Cultural Theatre. While studying with the legendary pianist, Rick honed his craft sitting in alongside veteran players Tommy Flana-gan, Lionel Hampton, Clarence “C” Sharpe, and Junior Cook. He then earned his M.A. at Queens College, under the tutelage of jazz masters Jimmy Heath, Ted Dunbar, Donald Byrd, Tony Purrone and Hal Galper. Stone’s reputation as a jazz guitarist continually grew, and through the 80s and 90s he participated in a multitude of groups and ensembles, which have consisted of a virtual who’s who of some of the fi nest jazz musicians New York City has had to offer. Rick has performed at Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall, The Smithsonian Institute, The Kennedy Center, The Blue Note, Birdland, and many other major NYC venues. From fresh interpretations of jazz stan-dards, to lyrically evocative originals, Rick Stone is an artist with a clear musical vision. His fl uid, full-bodied sound pays homage to

the great jazz guitar masters of the past, while maintaining a personal style with a contem-porary edge. He has been called “one of the fi nest straight-ahead guitarists on the cur-rent NYC jazz scene” (20th Century Guitar/MWE3.com). In addition to his performing career,

Stone is also an active educator. He currently teaches at Hofstra University, The Brooklyn Conservatory of Music and JazzMobile. He is a regular columnist for Just Jazz Guitar magazine, and a contributing artist to several jazz guitar volumes by Mel Bay Publications. His clinics have won accolades at the Interna-tional Association of Jazz Educators, Music Educators National Conference and numerous colleges and universities. He has received two IAJE Awards for Outstanding Service to Jazz Education. Joining Stone for this special presentation at Nighttown, is bassist Dave Morgan, whose association with Rick began while they were both music students at Tri-C West, studying with Dr. Joseph Howard. Morgan has since performed with many leading jazz artists, in-cluding Dizzy Gillespie, Benny Golson among others. His compositions have been recorded by the Polish National Chamber Orchestra, the American Wind Symphony Orchestra, and by members of the Cleveland Orchestra. He is currently Associate Professor of Double Bass and Composition at Youngstown State University. Drummer Ron Godale paid his dues

in New York in the early 1980’s under the mentorship of master drummers Al Foster and Curtis Boyd. He has performed with artists such as Jack Wilkins, Pete Yellin, Clark Terry & Josh Breakstone. Since returning to Cleveland, Ron has performed and recorded with area notables such as Bill D’Arango, Dan Wall, and Jackie Warren. His latest recording effort is with Cleveland Tenor Sax Master, Ernie Krivda on Ernie’s “Art of the Trio” CD. Please welcome Rick Stone home to Cleve-land, by attending his CD Release Event at Nighttown 12387 Cedar Rd. in Cleveland Heights, on Sunday, August 7th at 7 pm.

VINTAGE OHIOWINE FESTIVAL

The most highly praised summer wine and food festival between the Appalachians and Rockies will be celebrating its 17th An-niversary this year on August 5th & 6th from 1 - 10 pm each day. The beautiful grounds of the Lake Metroparks Farm-park in Kirtland, Ohio plays host to over 30,000 wine and food lovers annually. Colorful tents amid rolling hills, and picnic tables among groves of tall oak trees provide a tranquil setting for tasting exceptional regional wines, sampling fi ne cuisine, and enjoying the sounds of the area’s best musicians. Twenty four wineries will be the ‘stars of the show` this year and will assist attendees in the art of wine appreciation. Over 140 regional vintages will be offered for sampling. Sophis-ticated, world-class wines like Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc and Riesling may interest connoisseurs. Fun-to-drink fruit wines made from fresh strawberries, blackberries, peaches and raspberries will appeal to those new to the wine experience. Whether one enjoys red, white, blush, dry, sweet or some-thing in-between, there will be an opportunity to fi nd a favorite ‘Vintage Experience.’ From northwest Ohio to Marietta on the Ohio River, from the greater Cincinnati area to the south shores of Lake Erie, wineries gather to pour for the thousands who have discovered the quality and excitement that is Ohio Wines. When visitors fi nd a favorite during their tasting adventure some may choose to purchase a glass and be seated under a shade tree or in front of one of the stages which all have seating available. There are three stages featuring jazz, oldies, acoustic, and light rock from the time the doors open through the last hour. See the Entertainment Schedule at the end of this article so you can plan ahead. Being a region with such special growing conditions Ohio has quite a history behind its wines. Wine popularity really started in the Ohio Valley with the Catawba grapes in the 1800’s. It met its demise due to mildew and disease, but soon reemerged in the islands of Lake Erie. The islands became known as the “Lake Erie Grape Belt”. German immigrants who settled the islands brought with them an expertise for making wine and found the conditions to be extraordinary for growing. By the turn of the century, thousands of gallons of wine were being produced by dozens of winer-ies on and near the islands. Vineyards were soon planted along the entire southern shore of Lake Erie. Prohibition ruined the fl ourish-

ing wineries of the time but later the rebound was and is phenomenal. The turning point for the Ohio Wine

industry came in the early 1960’s with the planting of French-American varieties in southern Ohio. The hardy, disease-resistant grapes produced wines similar to the older Eu-ropean vinifera varieties. Their success in the south encouraged plantings in the Lake Erie Grape Belt. Each spring wine makers continue to plant French-American Hybrids and

vinifera varieties with great success. In 1975, a group of innovative wine makers formed the Ohio Wine Producers Association. Their purpose was and still is to bring together the grape growers and the wine makers. The Executive Director, Donniella Winchell, and the OWPA lends enormous support to the industry year round in numerous ways, but the highlight of their work is bringing the wines to the masses all in one outstanding event aptly named, Vintage Ohio.

It refers to a person who eats foods produced in or near the region in which they live. Vintage Ohio has been ahead of this curve for years. Food has always played an important part at the festival and a focus on Ohio grown and produced foods have had ‘center stage’ at the entrance to the event since its inception. We are proud again to renew this focus on ‘all things Ohio’. Along Locavore Row, several vendors offering Ohio fruits, meats and veggies will be on hand for sampling and sales. Our great and good friends from the Ohio Farm Bureau return to share information about ALL aspects of Ohio agriculture. On the cooking stage, Loretta Paganini will be featuring a great line up of demonstra-

tions which feature the pairing of Ohio wines and Ohio foods. Throughout both days, she will host winemakers whose vintages will be carefully matched with the cuisine she is preparing. Her nationally known ICASI chefs will demonstrate to an often standing room only crowd. Over 200 volunteers come out to Lake Metroparks Farmpark each August to be a part of the Vintage Ohio Wine Festival. Wine en-thusiast volunteers play a vital role throughout the festival from checking in vendors, to pour-ing wine for one of their favorite wineries, to working the wine store helping those who want to take some festival memories home to share. All of the volunteers help to make Vin-tage Ohio Wine Festival a success. They are much appreciated by the Ohio Wine Producers Association and attendees of the festival. 2011 Vintage Ohio Ticket Information Ticket prices: Adult taster in advance: $25 Adult taster at the gate: $27 Two-day adult taster in advance: $40 Designated driver: $10 Child [under 18] $3 Child [under 3] Free Special rates available for groups of 10 or more.

Jesse Malin And The St. Marks So-cial Team Up With Weeds Star Mary Louise Parker For Video For “Disco Ghetto”

Jesse Malin is no stranger to collaborat-ing with big names. From guest performers such as Bruce Springsteen and Billie Joe Armstrong taking the stage with him to

his European tour this past June with Ryan Adams, Jesse is always making headlines and his newest pairing doesn’t disappoint. In Jesse Malin’s video for “Disco Ghetto”, he and his band, The St. Marks Social, partnered with one of his biggest fans, Mary Louise Parker, of the hit Showtime series “Weeds”. Jesse elaborates on how the actress got involved, “Mary Louise has been a fan and friend since my fi rst record, The Fine Art of Self Destruction, and has even been quoted as saying that her favorite record of the year was Love It To Life, so we called her up and she was into it!” “Disco Ghetto” was written during the height of the recession. Jesse based this song off of a worry-free night spent with friends at an old school, funk, disco party. Dancing the night away was the perfect way to forget about all their debts and troubles, hence the line “on a recon mission for the riches of a poor man’s life”. Co-directors Harry Green-berger and Abigail Honor saw the opportunity to make this music video into a mini-movie; a chance to really tell the story. “Disco Ghetto” was fi lmed at NYC vegan hot spot, Kates

Joint, and Bowery Electric. The video features members of the Metropolitan Opera Ballet Company dancing with Jesse Malin and The St. Marks Social.

BREWIN’ THE BREW Stone Brewing Co. is rolling out yet another collabora-tion beer, with Stone Cherry Chocolate Stout” which hit the shelves on July 25. San Diego home-brewing duo Jason Fields and Kevin Sheppard submitted their Cherry Choco-late Stout for this year’s Stone March Madness Homebrew Competition and AHA Rally, taking top hon-ors out of 40 entries that were judged. As a result, they earned the opportunity to make a dramatically scaled up version with Brew-master Mitch Steele on the 120-barrel

Stone Brewing Co. system. “We didn’t have any expec-tations going in,” explains Jason. “We’d just entered the competition just to get some feed-back and notes on our beer.” Kevin adds, “The fact that we did win was absolutely surreal.” “There were A LOT of really good beers that day,” recounts Mitch, one of the judges at the competi-tion. Once the beer was decided on, an additional

brewer had to be selected to complete the col-laboration. Deciding to bring in John Trogner, Head Brewer of Pennsylvania’s famed Tröegs Brewing Co., was a no-brainer. “We make a holiday beer called Mad Elf, which uses a ridiculous amount of cherries,” explains John. “Plus, we’ve done a lot of brewing with chocolate. So I’m guessing that had something to do with why I was asked to pitch in.” The rich, smooth stout was brewed in late April, with a blend of dark-roasted specialty malts, Callebaut chocolate liquor, vanilla beans, and 9000 pounds of dark and tart cher-ries. “Seeing how much the recipe was blown up to brew it on this system is amazing,” Jason chimes in. “And getting to work with everybody… it’s been so cool.” “Collabora-tion beers are a big part of showing what our industry is about,” concludes John. “And it’s a lot like homebrewing: you think up an idea, invite your friends over, and brew it. There aren’t many other industries that can work that way, and I think it says a lot about what we do.”

Tasting Notes from Brewmaster Mitch Steele:“The taste is that of a very smooth stout, with an intense tart cherry beginning and a cocoa smoothness dominating throughout the palate. The tartness from the cherries balances out the smooth sweetness, and the addition of cacao and vanilla beans add intricate layers of chocolate and vanilla to the fl avor profi le. Defi nitely a beer to savor slowly and evaluate as it warms and changes in your glass.”

THIS IS LARRY MORROW...

Larry Morrow’s career has spanned forty years in radio, many of which were spent in Cleveland. (WIXY, 3WE, WERE and WQAL) He gave his heart and soul at each station that crossed his career path. He has written several familiar household commer-cial jingles that have received national atten-tion with one of them being, “With a name like Smuckers, it has to be good.” He was the fi rst American DJ to play, “I Can’t Explain” by The Who on the air. Over the years he has developed friendships with rock stars, celebrities, politicians, athletes and more importantly…his listening audience. His autobiography, “This is Larry Mor-row…My Life On and Off the Air” (Gray Publishing) is a look back on a career that

was fi lled with hard work, dedication, fun, tears, laughter and experiences that made one feel as though they were there, too. “I was always thrilled to be on the air. It was something that I looked forward to every day,” said Larry. “I worked forty years in radio and I was never late nor did I ever miss a day during that time. I wanted to be there for the audience every day and I was.” “I think people need to be passionate about anything they are doing. It’s important to fi nd your niche. When you take on a morn-ing radio show position as I did, you “marry” certain expectations and I knew my audience would expect the same things I did,” explains Larry. “I started on the air in Cleveland at a time when the city wasn’t doing very well so I wanted to help lift the city up in any way I could. Clevelanders were embarrassed in those days; the country seemed to be laughing at our city. I wanted it to be my goal to make them feel worthy again. I had the louder voice to speak out and knew in my heart that it would work.” In his early days at WIXY, Larry would call people listed in the phonebook and ask them to listen to his radio show. In six years, he called 17,000 people. He also had photos of himself that he would autograph and hand out to people so they would tune in to the station. Marketing creativity from those early days has defi nitely faded. “That kind of culture doesn’t exist anymore,” said Larry. “Each generation has their own culture and what they bring so what we did back then, you don’t see now.” There are many stories in Larry’s auto-biography that will give readers a sense of compassion and commitment that he felt for his listening audience. During the Vietnam

War, Larry traveled to where 200 service men from Cleveland were serving our country and interviewed each one. “I was able to talk to all of them but only 57 allowed me to put them on tape. It was a very moving experience for me,” remembers Larry. “When you are on the air, you become a legitimate contact with people. You become their pal. I had served in the Marines so I felt having that experience helped me. When they (service men) would see me, they seemed thrilled because it was a connection to home. I cried with many of them during our interviews. What I didn’t real-ize then was that I was building a bridge to the future. First on the radio station and then later for myself, that promotion laid a foundation for me with the audience and stayed with me for years. I was able to send a cassette tape of those interviews to their families. The letters I received in return is where you connect at the heart with people. All long-term relationships are formed at the heart level. We all cared about each other from the heart and people recognize that.” Preparing for each day on the radio, Larry read The Cleveland Plain Dealer, The Akron Beacon Journal, USA Today and The New York Times. “You need to know intuitively what people are concerned about when you are on the air. When people tune in each morn-ing, they want to know how their world is, how their city is, what kind of a commute they can expect, the time, the temperature, traffi c and weather conditions. Information is critical to the listening audience,” said Larry. “Once those things are taken care of, then you have to entertain them. You want to keep yourself a little different then the rest of the pack.” Today, Larry teaches, “Linking Effective Communications to Strategic Leadership” to professionals. “What you say and how you were heard are very important,” said Larry. “People not only have to hear what you say but feel what you say. The reality that comes out of your mouth is what you have in your heart.” “People care about their family, their friends and their community. Every twenty minutes, I talked about one of those topics on the air by design because I wanted to snuggle up to people so they knew I cared about the same things they did. Whenever people saw me, they would tell me that I was like a mem-ber of their family, that’s why communication skills are so important with people.” In the words of Larry Morrow as he closed each show at WIXY 1260:“Do all the good you can…To everyone you can…Every time you can.” For more information on Larry Morrow, please visit: www.larrymorrow.com

As husband-wife couples go in the world of music, it is a challenge to fi nd a duo as well-fi tted and naturally prolifi c as that of singer/guitarist Susan Tedeschi and guitarist Derek Trucks. They are both heavily steeped in the blues tradition, yet open to far-ranging infl u-ences including rock, gospel, jazz and World music. Each has produced recordings that share a sensibility best described as a swampy mix of rootsy, rockin’ American music. The two have guested on each other’s albums, toured together intermittently, and last year they each received individual Grammy nomi-nations in the category of “Best Contemporary Blues Album” for their 2009 albums, Tedeschi for Back To The River and Trucks for Already Free (which he won). As well, they often perform together with the Allman Brothers

Band—with whom Trucks continues to play as colead guitarist. In fact, it was during an Allman Brothers tour in 1999 that the two fi rst met. They fell in love, married in 2001, and began a family in Trucks’s hometown of Jacksonville, Florida. By early 2010, with two children in grade school and both of their careers in full-swing, they made a vow to put their individual musi-cal projects on hold and devote themselves to a new joint ensemble they would co-lead, what Trucks then described as “a collective that will allow everyone in the band a chance to shine.” On June 7, Tedeschi Trucks Band released its debut recording Revelator, the result of eighteen months of dedicated musical

focus. True to Trucks’s promise, the album is a confi dent yet unforced triumph offering a cohesive vision: an idyllic, musical world in which the echoes of so many great tradi-tions— Delta blues and Memphis soul, Sixties rock and Seventies funk—fl ow together natu-rally, blending with an entirely original, mod-ern sensibility. After just 1 week, Revelator entered the Billboard Top 200 Album Charts at #12, the 4th highest debut album this week, exceeding releases by the Artic Monkeys, Randy Travers and Def Leppard. Addition-ally, Revelator has achieved the following additional chart status: # 1 on the Blues Chart, #4 Rock Albums, #11 Digital Albums, and #1 Tastemaker Albums! Opening act Kids These Days (with close to 8,000 fans on Facebook and a smashing debut at SXSW) have the industry talking

and the Internet buzzing with digital releases, music videos and footage from hometown concerts. The eight members of the Chicago-bred band hail from every corner of the music spectrum and collectively create a hybrid that is equal parts jazz, funk, blues, soul and hip-hop. The band’s album Hard Times has drawn fans from as far as Europe, but their most undeniable strength lies in the contagious energy at their live shows.For more information: www.tedeschitrucks-band.com

21st Annual Pittsburgh Irish Festi-val Sept. 9 - 11

The Pittsburgh Irish Festival, Inc. celebrates the Irish experience in America. The “Halfway to St. Patrick’s Day Festival” has become a springboard for a new cultural awakening of all things Celtic in Western Pennsylvania. The beauty of Irish dance, music, and literature bridges many borders. Currently,the Cultural Area presents weavers, Irish histo-rians, lace makers, storytellers, Gaelic symbol drawing, and harp and whistle demonstrations.The Pittsburgh Irish Festival draws over 25,000 visitors for the weekend gathering. With the organization growing, they are one step closer to fulfi lling their mission statement of “contributing to the rich cultural expres-sion of Irish history and tradition that exists in Pittsburgh.” Past audience support has been strong; people in Pittsburgh are rightfully proud and curious about their heritage.

Highlights of the entertainment this year:

Gaelic Storm Gaelic Storm is back in full-force with their newest album, ‘Cabbage.’ The record held the #1 position on the Billboard World Music Album Chart for 3 consecutive weeks in 2010. ‘Cabbage’ is the follow up to their 2008 independent release, “What’s The Rum-pus?” which debuted at #1 on the Billboard World Chart. As many hundreds of thousands of record buyers and live music lovers know, Gaelic Storm is “a whirlwind ruckus” (Village Voice) that tours over two hundred days per year and play high-energy, foot-stomping, feel-good music. ‘Cabbage’ is further testa-

ment to the bands contagious energy, combin-ing infl uences from rock, bluegrass, Jamaican, African and Middle Eastern music that may surprise those expecting purely traditional Celtic music. The quintet’s new release once

again showcases Gaelic Storm’s signature acoustic sound with a brand new batch of crafted story-songs and driving instrumentals.www.gaelicstorm.com

Makem And Spain Brothers Not in the past 30 years has a group taken the international stage with such vocal power and stage presence, capturing the essence of their genre, while standing out as something truly unique. A host of various instruments and fi ve male vocals, using precise three-part harmonies blend perfectly for what many have described as a wall of sound. The Makem and Spain Brothers are at their best onstage where their talent and enthusiasm draw in fans who have never experienced the joy of folkmusic. www.makem.com

Screaming Orphans The Screaming Orphans are 4 sisters from Donegal in Ireland who were brought up play-

ing traditional Irish music. They fi rst came to prominence when Sinead O’Connor took themas her back up vocalists and her opening act. Sounding like a mix between the Cranber-ries and The Corrs, their own songs are high energy pop songs with unbelievably catchy melodies and with some rousing Traditional Irish tunes thrown in for good measure, they are a band not to be missed. www.screamingorphans.com

While setting out on my bi-weekly quest to fi nd something inspiring and interesting for the current issue’s segment of Mind Body Spirit, a website came to me and became the focus. I watched the “Video of the Day” on the homepage and perused the radio schedule which broadcasts live and through archives and made the decision to share the site with our readers. There is so much to explore and listen to on the website, but then travel over to Co-Cre-ator YouTube Channel and watch some amaz-ing works of art put to music and interviews with some outstanding authors such as Bruce Lipton – “The Power of Consciousness” and Don Miguel Ruiz – “The Four Agreements”. Of course Co-Creator Network is on Facebook and if you “Like” them then the video of the day can be viewed right on your wall. The Co-Creator Network is devoted to encouraging and facilitating experiences of positive well-being, health, vitality and joy so as to intentionally co-create the changes we wish to see in our world, a greater global consciousness for the good of all life on this planet. Just what IS consciousness? Is it a random by-product of nature, through chance mutations of genetic code in a mechanistic world, as modern Science has claimed? Or,

as Religions have long taught, did an intel-ligence, a non-physical Consciousness, create the material Universe and breathe life or spirit/consciousness into humankind? Are we separate individual consciousnesses, or are we all connected, as individuations or different as-pects or perspectives of One single conscious-ness? As self-aware beings, how much control do we have over our lives? Are we limited in only reacting to the world around us, or do we actually possess the ability, through our thoughts and intentions, to deliberately attract people, things and circumstances, into our lives, in other words, “create our own reality?” These are HUGE questions, and in a strange twist, it appears that Science, through the new fi eld of Quantum Physics, is now proving in laboratories around the world, that consciousness does in fact play a central role in what we call “Reality.” At Co-creator Network, the belief is that humanity is in the early stages of a MAJOR shift in thinking, and that’s why they’re talking about it. That is why the radio show and website continue, and through that connection to all they may help to bring each of us closer to being creators of our world.

Co-Creator Network is a founding member and sup-porter of Humanity Unites Brilliance.

What is HUB…? HUB supports and enhances the skills, passions

and business activities of its members through HUB community and learning programs.

At the same time, HUB’s social business structure allocates 30% of revenues, after operation-al expenses, through mi-cro investment structures operated in association with our Impact Partners, to providing education, resources and funding to

shift some of the world’s poorest people from poverty to living in sustained abundance. In addition HUB allocates additional revenues for members who may share, refer and benefi t from products and services that are sold through HUB’s expanding global network.

So visit co-creatornetwork.com and explore, it’s an encouraging and a feel good place to be. Does being a victim of circum-stances feel natural to you? Wouldn’t you re-ally rather be the “Captain of your own Ship” by choosing to be the Co-Creator of your own life experience? ~ Sage Satori

“The Dreamcaster”Custom built

for Brian Henke

In the last issue I talked about how the weather played havoc on guitar necks and how many of them may need truss rod adjustments. Well, the weather hasn’t been much better lately with temperatures in the 90’s and humidity levels in the high 80’s. All I can say is try to stay cool and use your better judgment about playing outside. I’m not saying to avoid playing music outside in these temps, but just to be careful about leaving any instrument lying in the hot sun for any length of time. Especially in the car. I’ve been lucky to have had a good friend of mine, Jerry Tyler, bring in his guitar for an overhaul. It seems as though all of the years of hard rock-n-roll has taken its toll on the electronics in his G&L strat style Legacy guitar. After looking at all of the past repairs that were done and the shape that the pots and switches were in we decided that it would be best to just replace the pickups and switches, pots and wiring. I have shielded the whole guitar and replaced everything with top of the line parts. I’m always glad when a player decides that his guitar is worth an overhaul. The rest of the guitar is in very good shape besides a good fret leveling and fi ne tune adjustments. I can’t wait to put it all back together and see the expression on Jerry’s face when he plays his “new” guitar. After years of playing the pots were worn out and the one tone control just kept going around and around. The switch was worn out and didn’t feel very true. I replaced it with a very high end German made switch and there is a world of difference in the feel of it. His complaint about the pickups was a humming noise. This could have been due to the few different guitar techs having a shot at it and somewhere along the line the shielding had been compromised. This is why I decide to start from scratch instead of trying to trace down a faulty ground. I could have chalked up more time just trying to fi nd the problem in the many old solder joints than it would take me to wire the whole thing with all new parts and shielding. I’ll let you know in the next

issue how it all came out. Another guitar that came into my shop was a beautiful older Guild G-37. It is a dreadnaught shape with a laminated arched back. I’ve always been impressed how well the backs retain their shape without having any bracing attached. I have played a few of these types of guitars through the years and all of them have produced very good tone. This particular one is with maple back and sides.

There was some excessive wear on the frets that I was able to fi le out. After a good fret crowning and fi ngerboard dressing it will play like it was new again. I also picked up an inexpensive (I hate to say cheap) electric mandolin that the top had severely caved in. It was no surprise because the magnetic pickup was placed right below where the fi ngerboard ends and the manufac-turer had cut the hole right through the main X bracing. This left absolutely no support for the top. With the string tension on it the top had sunken dramatically. My vision is to remove the back and replace the x-bracing by widening the angle of the braces so that they are located on either side of the pickup hole and add a transverse bar (a brace that connects the two main X braces). I will try to place this right under the hole where the pickup lies. After this is completed, I will replace the back and rebind it and touch up the fi nish

work and be done. This sounds like a lot of work for a 125.00 mandolin. Believe me it is. This type of repair could easily run up to 250 to 300.00 dollars. Some would say it is not worth it, but considering that I was given the instrument and I just could not bear to see the thing go in the trash can, I felt it was worth the experience that I will gain to perform the repair. As you can see now, being a repairman has this “thing” that comes with it; it seems

that everything I see that is broken I have to fi x it. Some call it a curse. Oh well, I guess it could be worse. So with that in mind if you have any old instruments that are lying around and you think they are beyond repair, please think again and don’t be afraid to give me a call. Many times I can repair them at a far lower price than imagined or maybe we can trade them in for other things too! Either way, please call me with your repair needs 440 474-2141

Ten Thousand SaintsEleanor HendersonHarperCollins 2011385 pages

Around 1985, Neil Young spoke of country music, which he was playing at the time, as being about the morning-after con-sequences of Saturday night. By Saturday night he meant the kind of euphoric ex-cess that rock and roll celebrates and embod-ies, more or less heed-lessly. His thoughts were of their time. The perception that excess can take a heavy toll—and the truth of that perception—do not, of course, belong to any one era. But there are times, such as the AIDS-haunted 1980s, when the laws of consequence—or their gods, or their demons—assert themselves with a special savagery. Eleanor Henderson’s Ten Thousand Saints is a tale of consequences. The central characters are late-eighties teenagers, born around 1970, the spawn of couplings from a time when the more daring of the young let Saturday night more or less rule. For children of the morning after, the consequences of their parents’ choices are complex and diffi cult, as are their own efforts at making sense of their lives. Their choices in these matters drive this story. One approach is to center one’s life around the drugs one’s parents favored, and maybe still favor, and end up outdoing them with indulgence in things they’ve probably left alone. On the last day and evening of 1987, in Lintonburg, Vermont, one Teddy McNicholas plays things this way. The pot-smoking son of an alcoholic, pot-smoking single mother, he has an eventful New Years

Eve. At a party he has both his fi rst cocaine and his fi rst sex, with the girl who gave it to him. One white substance ends a life. Another, courtesy of the deceased, begins a new one. A certain even-handedness of fate seems to be in play here, but one life for another doesn’t look

like a fair exchange to anyone concerned. The concerned parties include Jude Heffy-Korn, Teddy’s best friend, and of course the pregnant girl, Eliza Urbanski, a visitor from under the urban sky of New York City. She is the daughter of Jude’s father’s girlfriend. After New Year’s she returns to New York, where she learns of both Teddy’s death and her own pregnancy. She becomes friendly with Teddy’s older half-brother, Johnny McNicholas, who’s been living in New York for a couple of years. Jude joins the

New Yorkers before long. It looks like a good idea: following a period of deep depression over Teddy’s death, he stole a quantity of weed from a Lintonburg dealer, and the dealer and a thuggish friend of his are after him. He is plucked out of Lintonburg by his adoptive father, one Lester Heffy, who left the smallish city of Lintonburg for New York when Jude was nine. In New York, Jude more or less lives with a hippie and associates with punks. His father, with whom he stays, was a master weed cultivator and dealer when he left Linton-burg, and he still is. It turns out that Johnny McNicholas is living a few blocks away from Lester’s apartment, and he and Jude start hanging out. In his Lintonburg days, Johnny was something like an older brother to Jude as well as Teddy. Johnny was then a dope-smok-ing longhair. He is now the close-cropped, well-muscled, heavily-tattooed leader of a hardcore band. He espouses a strict straight

edge lifestyle. Straight edgers are supposed to abstain from any remotely psychoactive substance, and they don’t seem to have much sex. Lester says that in the old days such people were called squares. In truth, they seem to be both straighter and more out-there than their parents. They go their parents one better in the extremes of their music and appearance, but come by their euphoria honestly, if that’s the right word, without benefi t of alcohol or drugs. You might call it Saturday night with a sense of the morning after. But to your humble reviewer, who likes a beer or two at a show, the thought also comes that the aesthetic extremes here might exist to balance out the ascetic ones. With nothing stronger than water to drink, you might want to compensate with music louder and faster than Sixties rock, or even late-Seventies punk. Jude is a quick convert to straight edge. Eliza, wracked by guilt over Teddy and concerned about her child, goes along with it. More or less. Johnny and Jude and some old Lintonburg friends re-birth their old band as a touring hardcore unit. Johnny, Jude and Eliza form a sort of fraternal menage a trois. Johnny suggests a seemingly workable solu-tion to Eliza’s situation. All of this seems to be a matter of young people with clueless or absent parents looking out for each other. But there are some chinks in Hardcore Nation’s armor; one is that sexual abstemiousness can be a false front. Johnny takes on a role that might have been better played by Jude. They’re living in dangerous times, and AIDS is in the wings. As to the parents in this story—some are more helpful than anyone expects, but their experience only tells them so much, and the fact remains that their offspring are fi nding their way in a culture that’s twenty-odd years on from when they were the same age. It looks as if each generation just has to make its own mistakes and fi nd its own large and small victories. It would seem, too, that the dissident offspring of people who were dissident off-spring themselves might be in for a wild and interesting ride.

Braveheart/Gladiator(Two-Pack on Blu-ray) We all know the story of Braveheart from the original release in 1995 (a few perhaps from history class), William Wallace, a commoner, unites the 13th Century Scots in their battle to over-throw English rule. This picture Won 5 Oscars aside another 15 wins & 20 nomina-tions. Director: Mel Gibson Writer: Randall Wallace Stars: Mel Gibson, Sophie Marceau and Patrick McGoohan. Gladiator is the perfect companion for this double blu-ray. It was released 5 years later and surpassed Braveheart in some award categories. This fi lm Won 5 Oscars alongside another 45 wins & 79 nominations. Storyline reminder; when a Roman general is betrayed and his family murdered by a corrupt prince, he comes to Rome as a gladiator to seek revenge. Director: Ridley Scott Writers: Da-vid Franzoni Stars: Russell Crowe, Joaquin Phoenix and Connie NielsenThis title will be released on August 2, 2011.

Paul (Blu-ray, DVD, Digital Copy) Everything you know about aliens from pop culture is true. At least that’s the message from Paul, a swift, sharp, and very funny movie from the creative minds that also brought us Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, Superbad, and Adven-tureland. The British stars of the fi rst two, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, also wrote the snappy screenplay, and director Greg Mottola shows that he can make

human and sentimental self-referential humor the same way he did in Superbad and Adven-tureland. The premise Pegg and Frost have laid out for themselves as likable, sci-fi fanatic supernerds is a dream vacation starting at

Comic Con, then continuing through the American South-west in an RV visiting historic UFO sites like Area 51, the Black Mailbox, and Roswell, then fi nishing up at Devil’s Tower in Wyoming, the iconic centerpiece from Close Encoun-ters of the Third Kind. After their inauspicious start, they happen upon an escaped alien who is 4 feet tall, and has the big head, classic diamond eyes, and features we’ve come to recognize as both the benevolent and evil kinds of space aliens from movies and TV. He is Paul, and is voiced by Seth Rogen,

this CGI creature spouts a never-ending string of wisecracks and frat-boy humor that comes loud and clear as classic Rogen in tone and attitude. A terrifi c example of the very clever throwaway punch lines that run throughout, there’s a brief fl ashback to 1980 showing Paul on a conference call with Steven Spielberg (re-ally), giving him advice about script develop-ment issues for E.T. Paul crash-landed in the late 1940s and has been held prisoner by the government’s men in black. They’ve not only been pumping him for knowledge, they’ve also leaked the fabric and features of his being to people who want to believe, especially the ones in

Hollywood. Now Paul wants to go home, and he’s found the per-fect getaway with the want-to-believe team of Graeme (Pegg) and Clive (Frost), who take him to his rendezvous (at Devil’s Tower, of course). The road movie that unfolds is consistently hilarious, moving nimbly through gags and inside jokes, but also creating larger

relationships and drawn-out humor that relies on us believing that the little CGI Paul is real. And mostly we do, again thanks to Rogen’s delivery and distinctive vocalizing. Paul con-stantly quips, makes fun, gets drunk, smokes dope, and spouts a steady stream of patter about how aliens have been censored and reimagined in entertainment and the minds of people like Graeme and Clive. There’s a jam-packed supporting cast that complements and complicates the story (in a good way), including Bill Hader and Joe Lo Truglio as the bumbling men in black, and Jason Bateman as the scary man in black. Also passing through are some fun familiar faces and an iconic sci-fi actress who shall remain unnamed. Especially good is Kristen Wiig as a fundamentalist Christian whose mind is liter-ally blown by Paul. Amid the broad humor andnonstop punch lines there’s also a sweetness that stays with each fi nely drawn character (including Paul) and gives Paul an amiable sentimentality that runs throughout. Everyone clearly had fun making this movie, and that’s exactly how it is to watch. -- Amazon.comThis title will be released on August 9, 2011.

The Conspirator (Two-Disc Collector’s Edition) In the wake of Abraham Lincoln’s as-sassination, seven men and one woman are arrested and charged with conspiring to kill the President, Vice President, and Secretary of State. The lone woman charged, Mary Surratt (Robin Wright), 42, owns a boarding house where John Wilkes Booth (Toby Kebbell), 26,

and others met and planned the simultaneous at-tacks. Against the ominous back-drop of post-Civil War Washington, newly-minted lawyer Frederick Aiken (James McAvoy), a 28-year-old Union war ero, reluctantly agrees to defend Surratt before a military

tribunal. Aiken realizes his client may be inno-cent and that she is being used as bait and hos-tage in order to capture the only conspirator to have escaped a massive manhunt, her own son, John (Johnny Simmons). As the nation turns against her, Surratt is forced to rely on Aiken to uncover the truth and save her life. From director Robert Redford, The Conspira-tor is a riveting thriller that tells a powerful story about America then and now.This title will be released on August 16, 2011.

Emerson Lake & Palmer - 40th Anniver-sary Reunion Concert (Blu-Ray) Emerson, Lake & Palm-er, also known as ELP, are an English progressive rock super group. They found success in the 1970s and sold over forty million albums and headlined large stadium concerts - one of the largest

at California Jam (Cal Jam) in 1974 was in front of 200,000 people. The band consists of Keith Emerson (keyboards), Greg Lake (bass guitar, vocals, guitar) and Carl Palmer (drums, percussion). They are one of the most com-mercially successful progressive rock bands and from the outset focused on combining classical pieces with rock music. The legend-ary Rock Band reunited to celebrate their 40th Anniversary and headlined London’s fi rst High Voltage Rock Festival. This was the historic moment when Emerson Lake and Palmer performed for the fi rst time since 1998.

This spectacular performance with extravagant special ef-fects and lighting recaptured the magic and musical genius of Keith Emerson, Greg Lake and Carl Palmer as they performed their greatest hits in front of thousands of fans and leaving a lasting memory of the stunning musician-ship of these three legendary performers.This title will be released on August 23, 2011.


JUST FOR LAUGHS“Rabbits Revenge” Once upon a a time there was a bear and a rabbit that hated each other guts. One day whilst arguing in the forrest, the bear lost his temper and kicked an old lamp that had been left by campers. To their surprise a genie popped out and granted them each three wishes. The bear went fi rst and he said, “I wish to be the only male bear in this forest.” His wish was granted. The Genie turned to the rabbit who said “I want a motorcycle helmet.” And he got his wish. “And for your second wish bear?” Demanded the genie, “I wish to be the only male bear in the United States, and all the rest to be female.” He got his wish. The rabbit without delay took his second wish, “I wish I had a motorcycle to go with that helmet.” “Final wish bear!” Bellowed the genie. The bear said, “I wish I was the only male bear in the world, and all the rest were females.” After having his wish granted he smirked at the rabbit and strutted off into the forest. The rabbits eyes lit up, he turned to the genie and he said, “For my last wish, I wish that bear was gay.”

“Chicken Little” One day the fi rst grade teacher was reading the story of Chicken Little

to her class. She came to the part of the story where Chicken Little

tried to warn the farmer. She read, “.... and so Chicken Little went up to the

farmer and said, “The sky is falling, the sky is falling!” The teacher

paused then asked the class, “And what do you think that farmer said?” One little girl raised her hand and

said, “I think he said: ‘Holy Shit! A talk-ing chicken!’”

WORDS OF WISDOMThe early worm gets eaten by the bird, so sleep late.

The Second mouse gets the cheese

Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.

Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.

We could learn a lot from crayons, some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors but they all have to learn to live in the same box.

Major Pink Floyd release campaign, “Why Pink Floyd?” Pink Floyd and EMI Music, whose association dates from 1967, announce a com-prehensive release schedule, to be launched on September 26, 2011, encompassing CDs, DVDs, Blu-ray discs, SACD, an array of digital formats, viral marketing, iPhone Apps, and a brand-new single-album “Best Of” collection. The legendary band, who are still one of the most successful and iconic artists of all time, recently signed an agreement with EMI which has allowed the development of a multi-format program of packages, many con-taining archive material that has been collated during an extensive process between EMI and Pink Floyd. The releases, under the banner Why Pink Floyd?, are designed to appeal to a wide cross section of their fans, with music to excite fi rst time listeners, while super-deluxe box sets will cater to dedicated fans, allowing them to immerse themselves in multi-disc sets, containing alternate takes, unreleased tracks, restored live concert screen fi lms and a live recording of the legendary The Dark Side Of The Moon performance at Wembley in 1974.A series of different listening experiences have been specially created for this release: in addition to remastered CDs called ‘Discov-ery’ and the’ Immersion’ CD/DVD/Blu-ray memorabilia box sets will be a series of ‘Ex-perience’ Editions – coupling one classic album with a further disc of related content from that album to offer a deeper listening experience.Roger Faxon, CEO of EMI Group, said: “This is a unique collaboration between EMI and one of the most creative and infl uential bands in history. We have worked together for more than a year on this program which incorpo-rates all the elements that have made Pink Floyd one of the most inspiring forces in mod-ern music. Why Pink Floyd? Because their music is without equal and these exciting new releases will allow music fans to rediscover their incredible legacy and demonstrate that an appreciation for artistic quality never goes out of fashion”. Storm Thorgerson, the band’s longtime Art Director, has overseen the visual design, including new booklets for all the CDs, new artwork for the box sets and men us for the DVD content. Respected photographer Jill Furmanovsky, has edited books of original unseen photographs. Pink Floyd collaborators James Guthrie (in the US) and Andy Jackson (in the UK) have been in charge of digital remastering to the highest audio and audiovi-sual standards. Pink Floyd fi lm archivist Lana Topham

has supervised the painstaking restoration of many historic fi lms from Pink Floyd’s classic era, included in the ‘Immersion’ box sets for ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’ and ‘Wish You Were Here’.First to be available on September 26, 2011 will be: Expanded deluxe and special edition versions of Pink Floyd masterwork The Dark Side Of The Moon, in a 6-disc ‘Immersion’ box set and ‘Experience’ 2-disc versions, as well as a collectors’ Vinyl LP and various digital formats. Plus 14 studio albums, digi-tally remastered will be available separately or as a box set. Other initiatives will include a digital marketing plan utilizing user-generated con-tent to allow fans to make their own creative contributions to the band’s music, plus iPhone Apps which will give a unique insight into Pink Floyd’s recorded legacy. On November 7, 2011, Phase 2 of the releases will include: Wish You Were Here ‘Immersion’ 5-disc and ‘Experience’ 2-disc editions, both of which will include bonus material from the band’s 1974 Wembley dates, including a 20-minute tour de force live rendition of ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond’, as well as a unique recording of ‘Wish You Were Here’ featuring the legendary jazz violinist, Stepha-ne Grappelli. A collectors’ Vinyl LP will also be available, as will various digital formats.Released simultaneously will be A Foot In The Door – The Best Of Pink Floyd, a collection of their most well-known songs, contained on one album for the fi rst time. The long-awaited 5.1 version of ‘Wish You Were Here’, mixed by James Guthrie, will also be released in parallel via independent label Acoustic Sounds. The Wall, which has sold 25-million double sets and has become a cultural and po-litical touchstone over the last three decades, will be afforded the same exhaustive treatment on February 27, 2012, with deluxe packages including a 7-disc ‘Immersion’ set and a 3-disc ‘Experience’ edition. A collectors’ Vinyl LP will also be available, as will various digital formats. Pink Floyd’s offi cial Web site, www.pinkfl oyd.com, will be given a substantial relaunch from today.
