Music man

Music aficionado Paul Dueber holds his beloved Guild 12-string guitar, about to step into the Bistro restaurant in Cannon Beach for his regular Wednesday evening gig.

Paul Dueber encourages Cannon Beach’s music scene all over town

P

Paul Dueber sat smack in the middle of the empty front row of Cannon Beach’s Coaster Theatre Nov. 1, a broad smile on his face, singing along with Bobcat Rice. “Keep pushing. Keep pushing. If you want it, keep pushing. You’re gonna get it that way.â€? Several hours later, after sound check, the theater would be nearly full for a hootenanny of local musicians playing original songs. No one but Dueber knows so many of their lyrics. The Songwriters’ Hootenanny two weeks ago was Dueber’s idea and had its roots in the family singalongs that they and their friends enjoyed at his grandmother’s house years ago. 7KRXJK KH GHĂ€ HFWV DWWHQWLRQ IURP KLPVHOI FODLP ing to sound best in a dark room alone, Dueber is a Âż QH PXVLFLDQ +H SOD\V IXOO JHQWOH FKRUGV RQ D ZDUP curvy Guild 12-string guitar that looks like an old friend. “I bought that wonderful instrument at Portland Music when I got out of the Marines in 1968,â€? he said. “Some friends needed a rhythm 12-string guitar in their group for that New Christie Minstrels sound.â€? When his wife, Margo, sings patient harmony with him, you understand that they’ve been both here and together for a long time. Dueber is generous with praise and encouragement and, in conversation, can use the words “phenomenal,â€? “amazing,â€? “incredibleâ€? and “wonderfulâ€? in a single sentence. His contagious enthusiasm for honest music continues to spread. When the Cannon Beach Chamber of Commerce asked him to help line up some musicians for last weekend’s Stormy Weather Arts Festival, they collared the right guy. Saturday’s venues were full of music all day by musicians from as far away as Seattle, from Portland and from here. Dueber has played Stormy Weather Arts Festival venues himself. “It’s a two-hour gig,â€? he said. “You just pull up a chair, grab the guitar and start playing. Very relaxed and informal, which is the way I like to play music.â€? Recently, Margo and he have begun a regular gig as a duet, Wednesday evenings at The Bistro restaurant, singing songs in the tradition of Peter, Paul and Mary, Gordon Lightfoot and Paul Simon. Beyond music at concerts, pubs, galleries and restaurants in town, Deuber has been instrumental in encouraging buskers in public spaces like Sandpiper Square, where he and Margo have long owned

businesses. “We always encourage it. At Sandpiper Square the staff has instructions to go out and put 10 bucks in their bucket,â€? he said. “I love it when musicians come and play outside.â€? To create an enjoyable ambiance, Dueber asks busking musicians to play only acoustic, non-ampliÂż HG PXVLF DQG WR SOD\ QR PRUH WKDQ WZR KRXUV LQ part so others may have a turn. Local favorites like the bluegrass band Floating Glass Balls have often dropped by to play. Sometimes Dueber himself takes a turn, often playing with guitarist friend Bobcat Rice. That a guy who thinks he sounds best alone in a dark room should take so enthusiastically to public performance is the result of his long, happy career in local theater. Dueber has lost track of the number of productions he’s played in over the decades at the Coaster Theatre. Maybe 60? Lately, Dueber has left acting to pursue his own music more intensively. Availing himself of opportunities like a twoday course at the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology taught by Mary and Rindy Ross, whom he’d met when their band, QuarWHUĂ€ DVK ZDV EXVNLQJ DW 6DQGSLS er Square, Dueber has tackled the new challenges of songwriting. His music is heartfelt and intimate. Tender. At the recent hootenanny he performed an original lullaby for his niece and a subtle, wistful tribute to his granddaughter. He’s got no end of enthusiasm for encouraging his village’s music scene. He rattles of the names of “incredibly talented musiciansâ€? with long roots in Cannon Beach: Wes Wahrmund, Richard Thomasian, Maggie Kitson, Tom Jiroudek and his sons Lake and Evan, John Mersereau and his daughter Ashley, Bill Steidel, Jay Speakman, Ken Hardy, Mike Corry, David Robinson, Mike Costello, Julie Adams and on and on. “It’s long been a goal of mine to see a songwriters’ festival here in Cannon Beach with workshops in songwriting, instrument instruction, performances around town in public places like Sandpiper Square, The Landing, the Coaster Theatre and square there.

by Astoria Story by MATT LOVE Illustrations by ROBERT REGISTER henever a writer who writes about sense of place leaves a place that provided inspiration and impetus for writing, a writer asks: Will I feel that way about my new environs? Will I produce at the same rate? What hapSHQV LI , UHORFDWH DQG FDQœW ¿QG DQ\WKLQJ WR write about? I asked these questions of Astoria prior to moving here from Newport in November of 2013. After all, in six years, I had published four books set in Newport with a grand total of 160,000 words. Would Astoria inspire me to that degree? Or any degree? I’d always wanted to live by the mighty river, and ZKHQ , ¿QDOO\ WRRN WKH OHDS RI IDLWK DQG PRYHG , KDG VHULous doubts the gamble would work. A year and 125,000 words later, I have resounding answers to my questions. Frankly, I can’t stop writing about Astoria. The city has practically assaulted me with staggering vistas and true tales. The whole town is an open spigot of stories, a de facto writing studio, and all I have to do is walk right into its tiny or broad corners, and the next thing I know, I’m registering my impressions and shaping them later for publication or the privacy of my journal ,œYH ¿OOHG ¿YH VR IDU This place greatly inspires me, and I know others feel the same way. It’s no secret; we talk about it all the time and compare notes and interpretations. Astoria gave something crucial to me, so naturally being a writer, I wanted to offer a little homage and share my places of inspiration. You can visit them if you like. It won’t bother me at all. They don’t belong exclusively to me, and many of them don’t cost a cent to enjoy.

Frankly, I can’t stop writing about Astoria. The city has practically assaulted me with staggering vistas and true tales.

Beer

Is beer a place? In Astoria it is. And the stories that go along with the beer are almost as good as the beer. I loved hearing Fort George Brewery co-founder Jack Harris narrate the harrowing tale of how the signature Vortex IPA de12 | November 13, 2014 | coastweekend.com

Money men trusted him because he took great care of their old trees. When was the last time taking great care of old trees in Oregon led to something as wonderful as Buoy beer? Both Fort George and Buoy Beer Co. were great stories of beer entrepreneurialism that left an indelible impression, motivating me to do something similar with my writing here.

Godfather’s Books and Espresso

About the Painter

Riverfront

I first met Robert Register at McClure Park in Astoria. It was a late summer day, and he was sitting in a chair painting a cityscape on an easel. I came up and introduced myself. In short order, I learned that he was born and raised in Astoria and had recently taken up painting. I told him I was relatively new to town and found the place incredibly inspiring as a writer. I then asked if he’d be interested in providing the paintings to accompany this essay. He agreed.

Any walk down the riverfront in any weather condition sets off an intricate grinding story machine in my head not unlike the ones that cranked out candy in Willy Wonka’s The Astoria Column factory. It’s what I see, hear and smell: ships, birds, bar piA confession: In all my prior visits to Astoria, I never lots, painters, photographers, cops, workers, forklifts, sea once climbed to the top of the iconic Column and hurled the OLRQV WRXULVWV GHUHOLFWV ELF\FOLVWV ÂżVK SURFHVVLQJ ÂżUVW WR\ SODQH LQWR WKH ZLQG , ZDQWHG WR EXW VOLJKW DIĂ€LFWLRQV RI dates, guitarists, honeymooners, runners, baby strollers, acrophobia and claustrophobia precluded it.

She replied, “How I just wrote this paragraph on a strange backless bench, and can you write a book about Astoria without seeing the view I’m sure there are many, many more to come. from the top of the Column?â€? There was no retort to that. She had called me out.

Thanksgiving ideas

Eggplant Strata No faux meat harmed in the making of this veg dish By ALISON LADMAN Associated Press If you really want the vegetarians at your Thanksgiving table to give thanks, start by not serving them a roasted faux meat. We admit, there can be a time and place for not-meats, but Thanksgiving isn’t one of them. Instead, consider making a hearty vegetable dish that can serve as the main course for non-meat eaters, while doubling as a delicious side for the carnivores. And for that role, we offer this deliciously creamy strata that marries layers of roasted eggplant, delicata squash and red cabbage with a rich bechamel sauce. Think of it as a white sauce lasagna crossed with ratatouille. And to help you out as you struggle to get all the various dishes on the table, this strata is easily prepped the day before. On Thanksgiving, just pop it in the oven for about 35 minutes and it’s ready.

Thanksgiving Eggpplant Strata Start to finish: 1 1/2 hours (30 minutes active) Olive oil 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 large red onion, sliced 4 cups sliced red cabbage 1/2 cup chopped dried apricots 1 tablespoon ground coriander Kosher salt and ground black pepper

Servings: 10 3 delicata squash (about 1 pound total) 3 thin Japanese eggplants (or other small eggplants) 5 tablespoons butter 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 4 cups whole milk AP Photo/Matthew Mead 1 1/3 cups plain Greek yogurt This Oct. 27, 2014 photo shows Thanksgiving eggplant strata in Concord, New Hampshire. The deliciously creamy strata marries layers of roasted eggplant, delicata squash and red cabbage with a rich 1/3 cup chopped fresh mint bechamel sauce.

Directions 1. Heat the oven to 425 F. Mist a large (3- to 4-quart) casserole dish with cooking spray. 2. In a large skillet over medium-high, heat a splash of olive oil. Add the garlic, onion and cabbage and cook for 6 to 7 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender. Stir in the apricots and coriander and cook for another 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper, then set aside. 3. While the cabbage cooks, roast the squash and eggplant. Slice the squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Cut each half into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Toss with a splash of olive oil, season lightly with salt and pepper, then spread on a rimmed baking sheet. Slice the eggplant into 1/4-inch-thick slices, toss with oil, salt and pepper, then spread evenly on a second rimmed baking sheet. 4. Roast both vegetables for 25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until very tender and starting to brown. Set aside. Lower the oven to 375 F. 5. To make the bechamel sauce, in a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.

6. Add the flour and stir until the mixture looks like wet sand. Whisk in the milk, pouring in 1 cup at a time to ensure it remains smooth. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the yogurt and mint. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside. 7. To assemble the layers, spread half of the cabbage mixture in an even layer in the prepared pan. Top with half of the squash. Spread a thin layer of the bechamel sauce over the squash. Top with half of the eggplant slices, then another thin layer of sauce. Repeat with the layering with the remaining ingredients, ending with a good layer of sauce. 8. The strata can be assembled to this point, wrapped and refrigerated overnight, or baked immediately. When ready to serve, uncover and bake for 30 minutes (a bit longer if the strata has been refrigerated), or until bubbling and browned. 9. Allow to rest for 20 minutes before serving.

Vegetarian Gravy (that won’t leave you missing meat) By ALISON LADMAN Associated Press

In case there is any doubt, let’s clear this up: You don’t have to eat meat to crave gravy at Thanksgiving. But unfortunately for vegetarians, much of the gravy served on Turkey Day is made using the drippings of the big bird. And with good reason; turkey gravy is delicious. In the interest of giving vegetarians something to ladle over their mashed potaWRHV DQG VWXI¿QJ ZH GHFLGHG to come up with a gravy good enough to serve to everyone, no matter what one’s preference on turkey.

You-Won’t-Miss-the-Meat Vegetarian Gravy Start to finish: 30 minutes

Servings: 12

2 tablespoons olive oil 1 large yellow onion, chopped 1 large leek, white part only, chopped 1 medium carrot, peeled and chopped 1 stalk celery, chopped 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary

2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1/2 cup white wine 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth 2 tablespoons butter (optional) Kosher salt and ground black pepper

Directions 1. In a large skillet over medium, heat the olive oil. Add the onion, leek, carrot and celery. Cook, stirring often, for 15 minutes, or until very soft and starting to brown. Add the thyme, rosemary, sage and flour, then stir until well mixed. Add the wine and cook, scraping up any browned bits stuck to the pan. 2. Stir in the vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the liquid thickens slightly. Working in batches, transfer the mixture to a blender and puree until very smooth, adding the butter during blending, if desired. Pour the blended gravy through a mesh strainer back into the saucepan. Reheat over low heat, then season with salt and pepper.

ASTORIA — The Fort George Brewery will host Marty O’Reilly and the Old Soul Orchestra at 8 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 16. This three-man orchestra seamlessly weaves trancebased blues music, harkening back to John Lee Hooker and Howlin’ Wolf, with a drunken minor swing comparable to some of Tom Waits’ darker works. Marty O’Reilly and the Old Soul Orchestra deliver an enthralling and passionate performance, which often leaves them out of breath and the stage littered with broken strings and bow hairs.

Maybe it was just the long hangover of Halloween, or the rain slapping at the windows, but the Bartender’s Mood, a capricious nightly drink special at Pickled Fish — that eclectic, locally sourced restaurant and bar atop the Adrift Hotel in Long Beach, Washington — still conjured up ghoulish imagery on a Monday, Nov. 3 evening visit. Word is there are as many variations on the Corpse Reviver as there are corpses that need reviving. The name arises from the hair-of-the-dog tradition; so feel free to play around with what you have on hand. Some are gin-based, others use cognac. One common element every Reviver seems to share is the distribution of various liquors, juices and liqueurs in equal measure. This one is especially clean — the floral notes of the gin and wine play nice with the citrus.
