Coachella Valley welcomed California’s biggest country music festival By Robert Kinsler While headliners such as Luke Bryan and Eric Church thrilled the masses on the Mane Stage at Stagecoach over the weekend, most of the real magic played out in the Palomino and Mustang tents over the weekend. Here on full display was the genre’s roots that these days seem a world removed from the heavier rock and pop feel of so many mainstream country acts.

Here are some of the highlights of the action I caught in Indio at California’s Country Music Festival. Friday, April 25 N a s h v i l l e ’s Howlin’ Brothers come anchored in a blend of old-time blues and bluegrass, but here at Stagecoach that approach was delivered with a good helping of indie rock, an attack that attracted an enthusiastic crowd to the Mustang tent. The trio’s 40-minute

turn was solid all around, and it didn’t hurt that the multitasking outfit (several members often perform on different instruments at once) has an experimental and fun way of performing originals and classics. With a new album, Trouble, set to land May 13, there were all kinds of fresh selections to share, my favorite being the pretty “Tennessee Blues.” That song, featuring fiddle player Ian Craft on vocals, featured a dancing

the sale will take place, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see that be the biggest hurdle of this ruling. Sterling has a history of racism and inflammatory speech regarding race, especially African Americans, and we applaud the NBA for finally standing up to this person. I told a friend, I wanted to write an article about racism and the workplace, and he advised me not because of how dangerous the subject is. But the only way we can ever hope to make any strides against

racism and bigotry is to shine the light of truth on it. Unfortunately, America (as all other countries) is a racist nation. Even though we have piles of laws to help avert instances of racism and prejudices, this is something that can’t be legislated away. It will take each and every person in this great nation to make changes in the right direction for the rest of our lifetimes before we can make any progress. Prejudice comes from a combination of our heritage, the circumstances and experiences of our lives, and on and on.

NBA-No Bigots Allowed By Kevin Powell In a surprisingly swift and absolute move by new NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling received a lifetime ban from the NBA, his former team and the forced sale of the team. This was in reaction to terribly racist comments by Sterling in recent weeks. Kudos to the NBA and Commissioner Silver. At the time of this writing it wasn’t clear if Sterling accepted the ruling or draw even more attention to his disgusting comments by resisting his punishment. It’s unknown how

melody on his instrument, while a riveting bass line was played by Ben Plasse. Elsewhere in the set, guitarist Jared Green was astounding while playing guitar and harmonica on “The White House Blues.” J u s t a s i m p re s s i v e was Shelby Lynne, a cranky 2008 main-stage attraction but a standout in a better setting here, her voice powerful whether singing blues, gospel, country or material blending all of those

styles. Chief among her highlights was the uptempo, gospel-flavored “Call Me Up,” lead-off track on her new EP, Thanks, as well as her incredible emoting on a rendition of the pop staple “You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me.” Based on the number of people who jammed into the Palomino tent on Friday night, Lynyrd Skynyrd, a late addition replacing Loretta Lynn, Continues on Page 4

d n E e k v e e nt Sum Up e W Stagecoach 2014

Story and Photos by Pat Krause Stagecoach 2014 was another crowd pleaser as some of the top new artists performed along with some of the older well known singers and bluegrass bands. There was something for everyone’s taste in music. There was the Ferris Wheel for more thrills to see the whole grounds, and the Half-pint Hootenanny air conditioned tent for the kiddies. There was dancing there and also at the Honky Tonk Dance Hall for those that loved to dance. There is so much to enjoy at Stagecoach along with the fantastic music. There were lesser-known artists early in the day at all three stages, Mane Stage, Palomino and Mustang Stages. Many of these artists will one day be headliners at Stagecoach like Georgia Florida Line that was at Stagecoach before and played in the early afternoon. Music fans who came early to see these artists got to see them before they become famous and others got to see artists that were once at the top of the billboards and maybe the last chance to see some of these bands. Fridays top artists included Shelby Lynne, Katey Segal, Black Lillies and Lynryd Skynyrd in the Mustang and Palomino Stages. The Mane stage saw Easton Corbin, Eric Church and Brantley Gilbert. Saturdays singers were former top artists, Don McLean,Crystal Gayle and Nitty Gritty Dirt Band on the other 2 stages while Jennifer Nettles , Hunter Hayes and Jason Aldean were on the Mane Stage. Sunday had Hall of Famer Wanda Jackson, Michael Nesmith from the Monkeys and John Prine on the Palomino Stage. The Mane stage got rockin with Lee Brice, Florida Georgia Line and Luke Byran. There were over 62 bands or singers who performed. The fans on Friday seemed to be mostly those under 30 while Saturday, and Sunday brought out all ages to see the fabulous shows. Cowboy boots and Hats were the norm for the younger crowd with skimpy clothes and a lot of Red, White and Blue being worn. Young men were bare chested a lot or with T-shirts displaying their favorite artist. Celebrity Ashton Kutcher was seen all three days with his girlfriend in the crowd. No special privileges as he was just part of the fans.

Think about it. How many of us would be genuinely happy if one of our children announced their decision to marry someone of another race, ethnicity or sex? How often do you have someone who fits that description in your home for dinner? When you meet someone new do you see an individual or do you see a color or ethnicity? Sadly, the vast majority of us all see the latter. But it doesn’t mean we have to accept those initial reactions. Racism and prejudice in the workplace is a topic that we could write volumes about,

and we’ll do a follow-up on this topic next week. I love the 1967 Spencer Tracy movie, “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner.” They did a good job of illustrating racism when it was much worse at that time. Maybe take a baby step this weekend and rent that movie and watch it with your kids or at least talk about the topic with your family. We all have to start somewhere.

‘Wolf of Wall Street’—Crime Does Pay By Theda Kleinhans Reichman

Martin Scorsese’s “The Wolf of Wall Street,” based on the book by Jordon Belfort, received 5 Academy Award nominations—Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Leonardo DiCaprio, Best Supporting Actor, Jonah Hill and Adapted Screenplay by Terence Winter. While the film didn’t take away a single golden statuette, it still managed to make Hollywood history, setting a record for using the F-word more than any other motion picture to date.

The actual count is 506, so if that offended you, be forewarned. T h e c o m e d y, w h i l e raunchy and foul-mouthed, actually serves as a morality tale, revealing the downside of too much money, booze, drugs and sex. In a material world, Belfort’s lifestyle appears dazzling, but in the end, he looses what matters most in life— his wife, children and freedom. When we first meet Belfort (Leonardo DiCaprio), he is a naive, sweet-faced kid eager to succeed on Wall Street. He has a natural gift for selling. Soon he is encouraged and mentored by Matthew McConaughey, who takes him under his wing, introducing him to drugs and drink to fueling his selling ability. When the firm goes under after a crash in the market, Belfort heads out on his own. Later, he teams up with Donny (Jonah Hill) a loose cannon, but a good salesman as well. Together, with other partners, they form Stratton Oakmont, a boiler room operation that becomes a financial success. Selling penny stocks, they make a huge profit at the expense of little investors who are the big losers. Eventually, he and his associates are charged with security’s fraud and money laundering. Sentenced to four years, Belfort is released in 22 months. While in prison he writes, “The Wolf of Wall Street” and not only makes a cool million for the memoir, he receives another million for the film rights proving that crime, if interesting enough, does pay. DiCaprio gives an Oscar worthy performance as the smooth-talking salesman who can charm the birds right out of the trees. He is also darkly comedic, particularly in a segment where he drives his expensive car home while high on drugs. To say more would be a spoiler. No longer on Wall Street after swindling so many, Norman Belfort has become a motivational speaker, teaching his listeners how to learn from their mistakes and become good at honest sales techniques. In fact, keep your eyes peeled at the end of the film when DiCaprio, as Norman Belfort, is introduced to an Australian audience by a man who is the real Norman Belfort. Also, animal lovers, here is a tidbit worth knowing. In the scene where Donny swallows a beautiful gold fish, he really doesn’t—so PETA, know the fish lived. At least, the fish onscreen made it out alive. According to Belfort, in an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, what he did in real

life was even worse than in the film. Out of prison since 2006, he now makes a living as an author and motivational speaker, and even though he bilked his unsuspecting clients out of countless millions, he has managed to pay back quite a few millions from his royalties and speaking engagements. In his talks, he teaches others how to avoid the mistakes he made. A natural performer, he earns $30,000 per speech which he begins by showing the film trailer for “The Wolf of Wall Street.” Yes, he’s still a wolf at heart. From Paramount, the film is rated R for sequences of strong sexual content, graphic nudity, drug use and language throughout and some violence. Other Oscars nominated films available on DVD include: “Nebraska,” “12 Years a Slave,” “Philomena,” “American Hustle,” “Captain Phillips,” “Gravity” and “Dallas Buyers Club.”

could well have performed on the Mane Stage. Yet there’s no doubt that with the Palomino tent stuffed from front to back and on every side, there was palpable excitement throughout the legendary Southern rockers’ 90-minute set. The band’s performance was just fine, the Floridaspawned outfit still championing the hard Southern rock its original lineup popularized in the ‘70s. For the party-minded Stagecoach faithful, Skynyrd’s sharp set was mostly a soundtrack to drink, cheer, dance and shoot photos. A young woman next to me waved a gigantic foam hand you’d normally see at a baseball game – and kept slamming it into my head, seemingly oblivious to those around her. Sadly, those busy with their extracurricular activities missed hearty versions of more than a dozen of the group’s staples: “Call Me the Breeze,” “Simple Man,” “That Smell,” “Gimme Three Steps,” the indestructible “Sweet Home Alabama.” This also was the only concert I can remember where bothersome fans who typically yell out “Free Bird” were rewarded for their cat calls with a mighty band on stage playing that request. Saturday, April 26 Lera Lynn not only kicked off Day 2 of Stagecoach with her 1 p.m. set in the Palomino tent but acknowledged she wasn’t going to let early concert-goers relax and kick back. “Good morning,” she told her small crowd. “Are you well rested and recuperated from yesterday?” She then impressed in a big way, opening with “Lying in the Sun,” a mid-tempo tune that revealed the Houston native has a strong voice and magnetic stage presence. Subsequent standouts offered up by the Nashville singer-guitarist’s 45-minute set, including the country ballad “Whiskey” and memorably epic closer “I Become You,” revealed Lynn can sing everything from quiet material to roots rockers with deft pitch authenticity. Definitely one to watch. Following Lynn on the same stage was Canadian star Corb Lund, who served up his distinctive blend of country and Western music with his touring band, the Hurtin’ Albertans. Lund used humor as a key part of his 45-minute set, stopping during songs to offer quips as well as providing witty intros to his originals. The ones about life in Alberta (“Cows Around”) and playful takes on everything from religion (“Bible on the Dash”) and

drinking (“Rye Whiskey/Time to Switch to Whiskey”) to the survivalist movement (“Gettin’ Down on the Mountain”) are out of step with the majority of the Juno Award winner’s contemporaries, but it was refreshing to the enthusiastic crowd positioned in Palomino having a blast. Kudos to Grant Siemens, whose work on electric guitar and mandolin brought extra layers to everything. Tr a m p l e d by Turtles continues to be a force of nature, as evidenced by the quintet’s set on the Mustang stage. While they occasionally touched on beautiful midtempo folk numbers, sometimes abetted by a touring cellist, it was the bluegrass-on-steroids material that delighted the party crowd living it up throughout the hour-long performance. “Alone” typified the sort of hyped-up traditionalism that got the crowd crazy once the band accelerates the tempo to warp speed. Not to suggest that TBT is a one-trick pony: the entire lineup is fantastically skilled, conjuring songs that are melodically memorable no matter what the pace. But there was little doubt this night that the biggest cheers came whenever the group charged full speed ahead, with Dave Carroll (banjo), Erik Berry (mandolin) and Ryan Young (fiddle) unleashing impressive solos. “Wait So Long,” the last grenade launched from their arsenal, resulted in a huge mosh pit that suddenly transformed Stagecoach into O.C.’s 20-yearold Hootenanny. Sunday, April 27 With Corey Smith unable to make his 2 p.m. slot on the Mane Stage, Nashville outfit the Railers were called in to pinch hit. The group was up to the task and actually got some early birds to listen in the large expanse nearest to the festival’s biggest platform. But what a difference a venue makes: When only an hour or so later the same gang took to the Mustang tent for its scheduled appearance, they proved capable of convincingly winning over a crowd – not because they changed their approach but because they were in a setting where people could actually tune in more intently. One particular rocker, “The Lessons I Don’t Want to Learn,” featuring Cassandra Lawson on concertina and a good audience clap-along, was among the early highlights. A version of the Band’s classic “The Weight” came next, with the Railers’ shining harmonies and Jordan Lawson’s fiddle playing giving

this version a unique touch. Cheers for the band’s instrumental Celtic jam, dubbed “The Irish Song,” exploded as brothers Jonathan (mandolin) and Jordan (fiddle) got completely locked into the piece, turning the Mustang tent into a warm little pub. There were a number of originals in their set that ought to be embraced by commercial radio when the band’s debut is released (likely later this year), including the up-tempo “Seeing the World” and their closing cut, “I Kind of Dig the Feeling.” Best known as the Susanna Hoffs rocking on the Mustang Stage on Sunday, April 27. lead singer of power(Photo by Robert Kinsler) pop heroes The Bangles, Susanna Hoffs and a tight-knit four-man band made the post of a fastflying 40-minute concert set with a mix of new material featured on her outstanding 2012 album Someday, as well as artful covers and timeless Bangles hits. Highlights came early and often, including a tender version of Michael Nesmith’s “Different Drum” (originally a hit for Linda Ronstadt in the late 1960s), a rowdy and loose version of Big Star’s “September Gurls” and a Rolling Stones-styled version of the Prince-penned “Manic Monday” that was much more loose than the Bangles’ original. Stagecoach ended with a rousing, party-minded set from Luke Bryan, who had the crowd singing and cheering along to some of his best-known hits including “That’s My Kind of Night,” “Rain Is A Good Thing,” “Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye” and Saddle Up! The so-called Half-Pint Hootenanny offered a number of his ballad “Do I.” activities for Stagecoach-goers. (Photo by Robert Kinsler)

The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is $253,590.49. The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916-939-0772 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site www.nationwideposting.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case 20120159903612. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site.

No Intention to Resign

intention of resigning after the heads of multiple law enforcement organizations publicly called Zellerbach to step down as D.A. and drop out from his re-election race. Earlier in the afternoon, the heads of multiple law enforcement agencies in Riverside County publicly called on Zellerbach to resign outside the Palm Springs Police Department. “Do everyone a favor and drop out and resign,” said Robert D.A. Paul Zellerbach Masson, president of the Riverside Sheriff’s Association. He and several other PALM SPRINGS, Ca. - presidents of different groups Monday evening District Attorney resonated the same statement. Paul Zellerbach stated he has no These included sheriff’s

deputies and police officers in Beaumont, Cathedral City, Corona, Desert Hot Springs, Hemet and Riverside. This might be the first time in Riverside County in which the D.A. is asked to resign. “He lied when officers lie they get put on brady lists, they get fired. What makes him any different?” said Masson. He said Zellerbach lost credibility when he allegedly tampered with his opponent’s election signs last week. “Clearly not behavior that should be demonstrated by a district attorney who’s supposed to uphold the laws of the county and the state of California,” said

William Hutchinson, president of the Palm Springs Police Officers Association. Even months before this claim, the associations said they had already come to a consensus. “We’ve seen his decline of his leadership within the office,” said Masson. Adding to that thought, Hutchinson said the sheriff’s association as well as all law enforcement associations refused to give Zellerbach the endorsement because “we did our research and we know what kind of individual Mr. Zellerbach is.” To which Zellerbach fired back before a community mixer in Palm Springs Monday evening.

“I had permission from the gas station owner to put signs up and to remove signs that were in the gas station,” said Zellerbach, “The campaign is not about signs, it’s about issues. It’s about the competency to run the DA’s office which I have been doing for the past three and a half years.” His opponent Mike Hestrin said the voters will have to come up with their own conclusions regarding these allegations. Meantime, Indio Police continues to investigate whether Zellerbach is responsible for removing Hestrin’s campaign signs. Courtesy of KMIR www.kmir.com

s p o rt s Burciaga, Hitting Lead Rajahs’ Charge BaseBall Roundup By daniel maRinelli

Palm Springs, CA. – Behind a four-run first inning on Friday, the Indio High School Rajahs finished a two-game sweep of the Palm Springs High School Indians who placed the Rajahs back in the DVL’s upper tier. Following their semifinal victory in March’s Rotary Tournament, the Rajahs lost four of their next seven games, and in those seven games, averaged just 2.3 runs a game. In the first inning at Palm Springs High School, however, partly due to the inexperience of the Indians’ freshman starting pitcher, Spencer Keane – who merely lasted a third of an inning – Indio exploded for four runs on four hits. “I don’t remember us swinging at too many bad pitches,” Rajahs head coach Mark Brenner said. “We didn’t give away pitches, and when we got good pitches to hit, we capitalized and scored runs. We adjusted the order around a little bit; we did that on Tuesday, and I think they’re getting used to (the batting lineup) – it helped today.” After walking and giving up a hit to the Rajahs’ first two batters, Juan Siqueiros laced an RBI single, RBI-guy Steven Cuevas roped an RBI double and Jaime Rocha finished the Rajahs’ first inning rally with a one-out, twoRBI single. A Jonathan Diaz RBI sacrifice bunt in the third inning, plus two RBI singles from Cuevas and Rocha in the fourth inning ballooned the Indio lead to 7-0 – the eventual final score. Indio’s recent lackluster hitting is not the only reason Coach Brenner has had to toy with the lineup. Since March 24, starting shortstop and leadoff batter Nate Munoz has been sidelined with a thumb injury that has left a notable gap in the top of Rajahs’ lineup. Before Munoz went out, the Rajahs were averaging 5.3 www.desertstarweekly.com

runs a game, significantly higher than the 2.3 runs a game Indio has been scoring since his injury. “He got his cast-off Monday,” Coach Brenner said. “We thought we would get good news, that it was healed – and we would maybe have him back for today or next week. When they took it off and X-rayed (Munoz’s thumb), they said another three weeks. He’s going be out at least until the week of “ (Coachella Valley). Despite Munoz’s unfortunate injury, Indio still managed to score seven runs – yet the Rajahs probably should have been mercy-ruled (up by 10 after the fifth inning) a less-experienced Indians team. In the fifth inning, with no outs, Indio loaded the bases for its two, three and four hitters, and failed to plate one run. “That’s an opportunity where – who knows?” Coach Brenner said. “Could have been lack of focus – trying too hard in that moment. That was my only criticism. That one inning was a good opportunity to put the game completely away. You never can get too comfortable in high school baseball.” Against the second-to-last place Indians, with a significant lead, failing to score runs that should have been scored is not a huge issue. If the Rajahs were playing a more competitive team, the top of the lineup failing to execute with no outs and the bases loaded could be the difference between winning and losing. The offensive mishap did not cost the Rajahs the victory, due in large part to the Adam Burciaga’s ability to prevent the Indians from scoring. Adam – the older brother of Chris, who pitched Tuesday for the Rajahs – threw less than 100 pitches, striking out four in a complete-game shutout. Additionally, Adam did not give

up a single hit or walk after the second inning. “(Adam) came out and pitched fantastically,” Coach Brenner said. “He was locating with his fastball well, pitching a lot of strikes, so he was able to use his curve ball to compliment his fastball today. He had good mental toughness; whenever

runners got on base, he’d let his defense work for him.” With the win, Indio (3-3 in DVL, 13-6 Overall) moves into a tie for third with the Cathedral City High School Lions. The loss puts Palm Springs (1-5 in DVL, 9-13 Overall) in a tie for the last place with the Coachella Valley High School Arabs.

The Rajahs played the Saints at Xavier Prep High School on Tuesday. On Friday, the Saints travel to Indio to take on the Rajahs at 6:30 pm. The Indians traveled to Coachella Valley to play the Arabs on Tuesday. On Friday, the Arabs go to Palm Springs to play the Indians at 3:15 pm.
