The German word for “snow day,” Schneetag in Snowmass translates as “daredevils willing to propel themselves down a hill, over a jump and across a pond on a craft they built themselves.”

More specifically, teams of four to create a craft that they pilot down a slope at Spider Sabich and attempt to float across a 75-by-20 foot

Schneetag, scheduled for noon-3 p.m. on Sunday at Snowmass, will once again have teams taking the plunge in home-made crafts as part of the ski area’s closing day festivities.

A look behind the curtain at the Wizards of Koch OK, WE MIGHT as well make it three, eh?

This, as a reader may guess, is the third installment in my ongoing look at the billionairebrothers Koch — mainly David and Charles — and their frightening influence on our national political scene.

There is a marvelous online site called Common Dreams (commondreams.org) that offers articles on an amazing range of topics, such as a recent piece by Independent U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, titled “What Do The Koch Brothers Really Want?”

Sanders notes that the brothers are worth about $80 billion when lumped together, and were “the major source of funding” behind the intellectually challenged Tea Party, which sprang up in 2009 in response to the candidacy of then Sen. Barack Obama and has been a blight on the political landscape ever since.

A little bit of online research for this column uncovered, according to the website historycommons.org, that back in 1980 when David Koch ran unsuccessfully for U.S. Vice president on the Libertarian Party (LP) ticket, the Koch brothers spent $2 million to get Libertarian presidential candidate Ed Clark and his veep, our boy David, elected to the top offices of this nation.

Despite the LP’s claim to voters that it “has only one source of funds: You,” the historycommons.org website reports that the Koch money made up the majority of the party’s war chest that year.

Clark and Koch garnered 921,128 votes, or slightly more than 1 percent of the total votes cast in that election, according to the website, uselectionatlas.org.

During the campaign, tellingly, Clark was quoted by a reporter as saying the Libertarians were preparing to stage “a very big tea party” as part of their effort to end all taxation by the federal government — a misbegotten reference to the original Boston Tea Party of 1773. Given that Koch money went a long way toward creating the Tea Party of today, it is an interesting statement, don’t you think?

David Koch quit the LP after he and Clark lost so badly, and Koch turned to influencing politics with his private fortune.

But my main interest here, today, is to point out what Clark and Koch stood for in that long-ago election, as

revealed by Sanders in his Common Dreams epistle.

In what Sanders termed “a few excerpts” from the LP platform in 1980, he reported that Koch and Clark favored the abolition, repeal or termination of “every major piece of legislation that has been signed into law over the past 80 years that has protected the middle class, the elderly, the children, the sick and the most vulnerable in this society.”

The list included the abolition of Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, deregulation of the health insurance industry, public schools, the EPA, the Department of Energy and the Department of Transportation (privatization of all roads and streets being the goal). They advocated the repeal of all minimum wage laws, and an end to government regulations underpinning the Consumer Product Safety Commission and the Occupational Safety and Health Act. The list goes on, but the import is this — end all federal activity intended to protect and uplift the poor, the working classes, the infirm and the uneducated.

Turning to the Koch brothers’ spending habits in politics, I cite the historycommons.org website again, which reports that between 1998 and 2008, the brothers Koch, in various guises and combinations, spent more than $250 million in furtherance of their agenda of killing government at all levels and returning our country to its condition at around the turn of the 19th century.

That was a time when the rich ruled absolutely, and there was no middle class, in case you did not know.

It was a time when children were put to work in factories, when defacto slavery held sway in our industries, despite its abolition following the Civil War. So that, dear readers, is what the Koch brothers really want. They are not conservatives in the true sense of the word, they are reactionaries, and what they are reacting to is roughly 80 years of what has passed for progressive legislation and governmental compassion for the downtrodden in our society.

Is that what you want?

LEGENDS & LEGACIES

FROM the VAULT

by TIM WILLOUGHBY

Teamsters staked their lives in the fight against winter.

A TEAMSTER’S NIGHTMARE John W. Powell, my mother’s grandfather, made his living as a

teamster. He drove stagecoaches in Blackhawk during Colorado’s gold rush days, and moved to Aspen when Blackhawk fell into decline and Aspen boomed. There he resumed his trade working for Larry Maroney.

Powell, usually driving a wagon with a four-horse team, delivered timber from Maroney’s sawmill on Aspen Mountain to the mines and town.

Also, he delivered Maroney’s coal to the same destinations. His was a wellrespected occupation; the dangerous task of negotiating heavy loads along Aspen’s mountain roads required great skill.

President of Cowenhoven Hose Company No. 2 in the early 1890s, Powell understood what it took to drive a fire wagon. For a period of time he was the designated driver for one of Aspen’s firehouses, a position that required City Council approval. The fire chief pitched Powell to the council, saying “he is a good horseman, a reliable sober man, and has a family.”

Powell joined many Aspen teamsters in membership of the United Workmen (A.O.U.W.) union.

Even after trains provided modern transportation to town, stagecoach drivers connected Aspen to

neighboring cities in several directions.

Much as today’s shoppers turn to Amazon and Alibaba, turn-of-thecentury customers expanded their

mine on Aspen Mountain, his wagon filled with coal. When he stopped to rest the four-horse team at the bottom of a steep grade, an avalanche swept

TEAMSTERS CRASHED OVER THE CLIFFS OF INDEPENDENCE PASS, DROWNED IN RAGING RIVERS, AND SUFFOCATED IN AVALANCHES. SUDDEN DEATH BY SNOW SLIDE OCCURRED TOO FREQUENTLY AROUND ASPEN, ESPECIALLY IN THE SPRING; THE ASPEN TIMES DESCRIBED POWELL’S EXPERIENCE AS “NOTHING SHORT OF MIRACULOUS.” limited retail options with mail order.

The goods were delivered by wagon, as were heavy loads of silver ore. Think of the number of delivery trucks that would ply Aspen’s streets today if all loads were limited to the size of the modern pickup truck.

One spring afternoon in 1892, Powell started out for a delivery to a

down from above. The snow path — about a hundred feet wide — pushed Powell, wagon and horses over the edge of the road and tumbled them the length of a football field down the mountain.

Powell was carried ahead of the horses and the wagon so they did not crush and bury him in snow; however,

the avalanche destroyed the wagon, spread wood and coal the length of the slide, and covered it. The horses were swept almost as far as Powell and rescuers, who were on the scene quickly, dug out the “almost uninjured” animals.

Teamsters crashed over the cliffs of Independence Pass, drowned in raging rivers, and suffocated in avalanches.

Sudden death by snow slide occurred too frequently around Aspen, especially in the spring; the Aspen Times described Powell’s experience as “nothing short of miraculous.”

Never shot by outlaws robbing his stagecoach, nor toppled with a load of logs over the edge of the road, nor burned alive in one of Aspen’s many fires, Powell survived to what was then considered an old age. Imagine the stories he must have told about his pioneer days, and those of his fellow teamsters, in Colorado — the Wild West.

Tim Willoughby’s family story parallels Aspen’s. He began sharing folklore while teaching for Aspen Country Day School and Colorado Mountain College. Now a tourist in his native town, he views it with historical perspective. Reach him at redmtn2@ comcast.net.

AN ARTICLE THAT RAN in the Aspen Daily Times on Dec. 14, 1962, expressed Aspen’s need for a historical society. The Aspen Historical Society was officially established the following year. As the article explained, “part of Aspen’s charm comes from its history. It’s skiing, its music, its climate, its scenery are all superb and would attract visitors by themselves, but the aura of a romantic, boisterous past adds an indefinable extra something which gives the resort character and sets it apart. Unfortunately, Aspen is rapidly losing its aura. No one can take away the town’s history, but since much of it exists only in memory and has never been recorded, the passing of each old timer depletes the stock. .... we congratulate those residents who are now forming an Aspen Historical Society. Their job will not be easy, but it will be worthwhile.”

Swix skier, backcountry guide and avalanche forecaster Ian Havlick hands these out to clients as “an easy way to make less-than-perfect-snow feel better.” Swix liquid wax has some competition, but the product has undergone improvements in the past few years to increase durability. The wipe makes application easy with a polishing cloth included.

WINEINK

WINEINK: MY GIFT IF YOU LOOKED at the pictures on the page to your right before reading this article — like I and most people assuredly do — then you probably are expecting to read about Burgundy.

That’s because I told my esteemed editor, Jeanne McGovern, that this story was going to be about Burgundy and asked her to find, as she so often does, KELLY J. brilliant pictures HAYES to supplement and enhance the words I wrote.

Now don’t worry, you’ll get your Burgundy story next week.

But after putting the Burgundy story in solid shape over the weekend, I went skiing on Monday, the day that this story is due to the aforementioned esteemed editor.

It was, as those few who were on the hill know, a spectacular ski day.

A foot of dry powder, cool temps and sunshine. If ski days were given ratings, like, say, a Chablis, on a 100-point scale, I would have given Monday April 14, 2014, a 98.

My only quibble is that the snow got a touch heavy in the final hour for my well-turned legs. Though I guess that is like docking a wine two points because it was so good you got a hangover after indulging in the entire bottle.

Anyway, the day was the kind that made those of us who live here feel intense gratitude for all of our undeserved and, I suppose, occasionally deserved gifts. To be able to ski on a Monday like that and have your esteemed editor give you a hall pass for your submission is, well, not just one gift, but two.

As I contemplated my great good fortune on the lifts between turns, my thoughts turned to this column and to what an incredible gift it is to write it every week.

This is the 352nd edition of WineInk. That means its lifespan is just more than seven years. The

12

A S P E N T I M E S W E E K LY

F

impact that writing it has had on my life can be described as nothing short of extraordinary.

While I am not so sure that you can say the same about the impact that WineInk has had on this community, I am proud to note that the other paper added a columnist following the launch of WineInk. Drew Stofflet does a great job of making this town of 5,000 or so full-timers a two wine- column town — something I believe must be unique in all of America.

But enough about the community. Let’s talk about me.

Over the past seven years, I have immersed myself in the world of wine. Do you have any idea how great that is? I have traveled from Old Alsace to New Zealand, from Beaune to Boonville, from Coonawara to Calistoga, from Osoyoos to Temecula in search of great wine stories. And everywhere I go in this quest there are beautiful vineyards, unique wineries and, most of all, captivating people. I have been to wineries in North Carolina and Wisconsin and Texas, and I can say unequivocally, without hesitation or hyperbole, that I have never been to a winery that I didn’t both enjoy and learn something from during my visit.

How many things in your job can you say that about?

When I’m asked if my column rates wines and if I am a critic, I say no, I only rate ski days and that WineInk is about celebrating the people, places and things that make wine great. And clearly, as I look back on the previous 351 columns, there is solid emphasis on people.

Wine folk are innovative, creative, dedicated, persevering, courageous, whimsical, and a little crazy. And consider that they make their living by interacting with Gaia, Mother Earth herself. It takes some chutzpah to say that you are going to be in the wine business.

To leave city life and become a farmer, to put your trust in the dirt

Apr il 17 - Apr il 23, 2014

and the vines and the weather. But in the New World, that is exactly what winemakers have done.

They have decided that because of the passion, the desire to make something from scratch every year, and perhaps whimsy, that the world of wine is for them. For me, the people who make those kinds of decisions are irresistible.

In addition to going to great places and meeting great people, one significant element of your job as a wine writer is that you, wait for it, drink wine. I recently came to the conclusion that if I am either skiing or drinking, then I am actually growing as a person.

If not, well…

So with all of this floating

around my ever-evolving and expanding mind (remember I was skiing), I just wanted to take this opportunity to express profound appreciation for having this gift, this opportunity. I wish to thank Gaia, for giving us the fruits of the earth; Bacchus, the Greek God of Wine, for blessing vintners and wine lovers everywhere; Ullr, for the snow, of course; and my aforementioned esteemed editor, the Goddess of WineInk In fact, the final deity comes first.

She made this blend of Syrah, Mourvdre and Grenache from fruit sourced from an up-and-coming vineyard in Amador County. The fact I had it with friends over a dinner of grilled lamb chops and grilled greens only enhanced the flavors of dark berries, spice and a little leather. Yum.

FROM ASPEN, WITH LOVE

FOOD MATTERS FOOD MATTERS

LAST CALL!

RESTAURANT SPECIALS CLOSE OUT A SWELL SEASON SLIDING UP TO the bar at Jimmy’s last Wednesday around 7, my pal Corby and I were struck by two things: That we didn’t have to wait for two seats to open up during restaurant primetime — and hover awkwardly in the entryway — and the sea of familiar faces.

Our walk from the Wheeler Opera House was shrouded in the kind of eerie silence AMANDA RAE that creeps into town after Spring Break, but inside Jimmy’s we found a cocktail of longtime friends and laid-back energy. Our fearless bartender Dylan commented that he doesn’t see some locals at all during peak season — they know better than to battle the throngs of jetsetters and snow bunnies. We nodded between bites of lobster mac, and reveled in the chill, insiders-only vibe, which is why we choose Jimmy’s in the first place. Aspen Mountain won’t close for another couple of weekends, but one thing is clear: offseason is here.

Even local-favorite haunts like Jimmy’s need a couple of weeks to recharge, offering chefs, cooks, and hospitality folk a muchdeserved, long-anticipated break.

(See sidebar below for details.)

Brunelleschi’s, which normally remains open year-round, is taking a few weeks off to do some remodeling. Aspen’s original watering hole, the J-Bar at Hotel Jerome, goes dark until May 22.

“We close pretty much every year to deep clean and refresh the old girl,” explains Susie Lee, marketing and creative projects manager.

Despite Aspen Skiing Co.’s announcement to extend spring skiing on Aspen Mountain past the initial closing date of April 20, this weekend could be seen as our last hurrah — at least, to après at Ajax Tavern or sip bottomless mimosas for $10 (11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sunday) at The Little Nell. Across town, many restaurants — Brexi Brasserie, Casa Tua, Creperie du Village, Ellina, Red Onion, Wild Fig, and Zeno included — shut down on Sunday.

Others use this time to test specials. Finbarr’s Irish Pub inaugurates Meatball Mondays ($11) and resurrects Wednesday Burger Night before closing for a month beginning April 27. Such evenings hark to executive chef Joe Flamer’s popular Curry Nights last fall.

“All of these specials are specifically created with locals in mind,” says Kelly O’Donovan, co-owner with her husband, Denis. “They are the reason we created Finbarr’s. Denis has lived and worked in Aspen for 20 years and is familiar with what locals want. From 20-somethings to local families to the old ski bums, we see them all at the pub on a regular basis.”

The good, the few, the brave remain open nonstop — albeit with limited hours — before the

gluttonous, booze-soaked Food & Wine Classic kicks off a new season of fresh produce, farmers’ markets, and al fresco dining. Offseason specials abound. bb’s offers any two dishes for $21, Tuesday to Saturday. Cantina offers specials daily, including $3 street tacos on Tuesday, five items for $5 each on Thursday, and Hangover Brunch on Saturday and Sunday, complete with Bloody Maria tequila bar.

Semi-annual specials continue at Rustique: this week, take 50 percent off the entire dinner menu, and 10 percent off wine,too.

“I definitely take advantage of these deals,” says Melissa Wisenbaker, a PR professional

who moved to Aspen three years ago. “I love being able to walk into a restaurant, know everyone — since it’s mostly locals — and get amazing deals, such as Rustique’s fried chicken prix-fixe Thursdays.”

(3-courses, $26.)

Spring 2014 will go down in history as the real last hurrah for some. Ute City closed for good last Friday. And Takah Sushi, at 33 years one of Aspen’s longestrunning restaurants, says sayonara with a blowout bash on Saturday, April 19. Thanks for the memories — it’s been a good run.

GUNNER’S LIBATIONS

by MICHELLE LOCKE for THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MAKE IT

EASTER TREATS, FOR GROWN-UPS

PINK BLOSSOM 3 ounces Croft PINK port 1 ounce elderflower liqueur 2 ounces of a sparkling wine, such as Domaine Carneros Brut 2009, to top it off.

The bright berry flavors of the rose port add a spring freshness to the nostalgic sweetness of chewy candies like Peeps

Easter candy is dandy. But Easter candy paired with booze? Now that’s something to put a spring in your step. So we asked wine and spirits connoisseurs to come up with something the adults can sip on while the youngsters hunt for sugary splendors in the grass. Among the favorites? Austin Hope, president of the Paso Robles’ winery Hope Family Wines, suggests a glass of Treana white wine with a handful, or two, of jelly beans. For Peeps, Daniel Cubicciotti, brand ambassador for port producers The Fladgate Partnership, suggests making a “PINK blossom” (see recipe). Cubicciotti also has the answer for Cadbury Creme Eggs: a slightly chilled glass of Taylor Fladgate 10-year-old Tawny Porto to stand up to the richness of the candy with its fruity flavors and notes of caramel; this fortified wine also would be a good match for another Easter classic, Jordan Almonds.

ASPEN UNTUCKED

with BARBARA PLATTS

HIGHLANDS CLOSING-DAY STYLE (AND WHERE THE PARTIERS GO FROM HERE)

DESPITE THE FRIGID temperatures and excessive amounts of precipitation, people of all legal ages came out to say farewell to the ski season (at least the ski season at Highlands) on Sunday afternoon. As usual, the eclectic mix of outfits and costumes were colorful, creative, and pretty damn funny. Here is a selection BARBARA PLATTS of some of the best.

DREW COLBERT Where are you from? Boston Where will you be in 10 years from today? “I will be a real estate developer that vacations in Aspen.”

AISHCUBE AISHA BACOS Where are you from? Sweden Where will you be in 10 years from today?

“Probably here.”

MARLAINA FOYE, TARA FOYE, AND PIG FOYE (DOG) Where are you from? Aspen and San Francisco Where will you be in 10 years from today?

“Running a business in some way. The three of us.”

BECKA LEVIN Where are you from? Boston Where will you be in 10 years from today?

“At Highlands Ale House #noskiing.”

BLAKE GALLAGHER Where are you from? Missoula, Mont.

Where will you be in 10 years from today?

“Probably here.”

KARIM SOUKI (LEFT) AND ADAM FORTIER Where are you from? Aspen Where will you be in 10 years from today?

“At an Aspen bar, putting out the vibe on top of the world.”

MEREDITH HANRAHAN Where are you from? Aspen Where will you be in 10 years from today? “Still living the exact same life: half here, and half by the beach, taking my snorkel with me wherever I go.”

JEFF KING (LEFT) Where are you from? Boston Where will you be in 10 years from today?

“Hopefully in Aspen.”

MATT POLLETTA (RIGHT) Where are you from? Chicago Where will you be in 10 years from today?

“Hopefully still living in a mountain town.”

ANDREW MCINALLY Where are you from? Aspen Where will you be in 10 years from today?

“Swimming in a pool of bacon.”

Cheers to another fabulous season!

Barbara Platts wore sparkly purple leggings to the Highlands Closing Day party. And yes, they looked fabulous.

SILVERPEAK APOTHECARY sold Aspen’s first bag of recreational marijuana on March 5, 2014, and the Aspen Historical Society was there to record it, grabbing a receipt of the purchase, a weed grinder, a lighter, a T-shirt and a Silverpeak menu. One day, those items will be artifacts, proof that prohibition had ended in Aspen.

“We try and anticipate what types of things are going to have some historical significance in the future,” said Kelly Murphy, the Society’s new executive director and chief executive officer. “That was something that was kind of a no-brainer because it was a historic thing for our state and for our community.

So we thought let’s look ahead and get some stuff now because in the future, someone’s going to ask us for something on opening day, and we’ll have it.”

Historical Society archivist Anna Scott (above) and executive director Kelly Murphy (below) work hard to protect Aspen’s history, including such memorabilia as items found in the Aspen Time Tube (right).

Any discussion about the Aspen Historical Society would be incomplete without mention of Murphy’s predecessor, longtime local Georgia Hanson, who served in the role for 11 years. During her tenor, Hanson oversaw a highly successful rebranding of the Historical Society, an organization left for dead in the late 1990s after going through two executive directors in three years.

When Hanson started, the organization had a $250,000 budget; and she had basically been hired to shut it down and sell its assets. Six weeks into the job, she lobbied for county support and was granted $250,000. In 2005, the organization earned 63 voter percent approval for a property tax mill levy and the budget ballooned to $750,000, turning three staff members into 10.

“We took a floundering, almost bankrupt nonprofit and turned it into a flourishing, sustainable institution,” Hanson said in August.

“When I think of people like Georgia Hanson, I don’t think of myself on the same kind of level,” Murphy said earlier this month. “She’s been here for so long, so it was kind like, ‘If they hire another Georgia, that’s not really me.’”

While Hanson vacations in Mexico, where she has been since January, Murphy brings a new set of eyes and an extensive legal and marketing background to the position.

After graduating from the University of Michigan, Murphy came to Aspen in 1987 without any real plans. A few years in, she fell in love with the place and decided to stay. But she couldn’t land a “real job,” despite numerous interviews.

“For whatever reason nothing worked out, and I thought, ‘Well, all right — I need to go out and get some experience and come back,’” she said.

That led her to Omaha, Neb., where she worked as a newspaper reporter, and then Seattle, where she worked for a Fortune 500 company in the public relations department. That gave her the experience she needed to return to Aspen, where in 1995 she joined Aspen Skiing Co.’s public relations department. For seven years, she worked with the likes of John Morton, Kitty Boone and Bobbie Burkley, only to leave Aspen again in pursuit of a law degree.

“HISTORY IS STORIES — THAT’S WHAT IT IS — AND WHO DOESN’T LOVE A GOOD STORY? ASPEN’S FULL OF GOOD STORIES.” KELLY MURPHY, ASPEN HISTORICAL SOCIETY

On the Front Range, Murphy worked as a district attorney and later, for the Colorado Attorney Regulation Counsel, prosecuting unethical attorneys. After three years, her career changed directions again because of the “Aspen clause” — a reference to Notre Dame’s legendary football coach, Lou Holtz. In 1984, Holtz accepted a head coaching job at the University of Minnesota, but his contract included a “Notre Dame clause,” which said he could leave if the Irish made him an offer. He switched schools in 1986, just as Murphy switched job in 2005, joining the Matthew C. Ferguson Law Firm in Aspen.

She practiced there until December, a month before stepping into her Historical Society role.

One of the Society’s first tasks under Murphy has been determining what to do with the hundreds of items unearthed with the Aspen Time Tube in September. The Tube, which was buried in 1983 during the International Design Conference, included a mouse from one of Steve Jobs’ biggest commercial flops, the Apple Lisa personal computer.

Murphy, who lives in El Jebel with her husband, Danny, and their son, Kian, also has been looking for ways to document Aspen’s ski culture and social scene. She’s been in discussions with individuals who have been hosting wine parties at Blondie’s Cabin on Aspen Mountain for 53 years.

There’s also the “Seasons of the Nuche: Transitions of the Ute People,” an exhibit on display at the Wheeler/Stallard Museum, which received two national awards for leadership in history — an Award of Merit from the American Association for State and Local History and another from Mountain-Plains Museum Association. This time next year, the Ute exhibit will be replaced, with the planning process starting in the coming months.

“Right now, we’re just really in the brainstorming stage,” she said.

One thing Murphy said she would like to change is the public’s understanding of what the Society does. In addition to existing educational programs with third-graders, she wants to engage middle-schoolers.

“If people can start out young with an appreciation of history, where there from and a sense of place, I think that will carry through their lives,” she said.

To further increase awareness, Murphy hopes to establish more partnerships with local organizations. On April 4, the Society partnered with Aspen Valley Ski & Snowboard Club to deliver a screening of “Climb to Glory,” a film about the 10th Mountain Division that showed at the Wheeler Opera House. Tickets sold out, and about 150 people were turned away at the door. The Society is planning another screening of the film.

“I hear from a lot people, ‘If people aren’t interested in history, you just need to forget about them because they’re not going to be fans of yours or come to your events,’” she said. “And I totally disagree with that. I think that anyone who’s here, anyone who loves this place, does so partly because of the history. I don’t think you can separate your love of Aspen, or this community, or this valley, from the history.”

For its ongoing series “Time Travel Tuesdays,” the Society will be adding a cemetery tour.

It’s also planning a June 17 summer kickoff party, which will be a ranch-themed hoedown at the Holden/Marolt barn. The event will include the presentation of the Fish Wit Award, named after Freddie Fisher, a prolific Aspen newspaper letter writer in the 1950s. Murphy is hoping to work with editors of both daily papers to determine this year’s winner.

To increase traffic at the Holden/Marolt site, Murphy wants to raise awareness of the site, possibly through a partnership with the WE-cycle bike-share program. The site features a map of all the old mines and tunnels in the Roaring Fork Valley, as well as operational mining machines that were used to crush ore. There’s even a model of all the equipment that used to be on-site, including a massive smokestack.

Murphy said she hopes people in the community will take time to experience at least one Historical Society offering.

“History is stories — that’s what it is — and who doesn’t love a good story?” she said.

“Aspen’s full of good stories.” herk@aspentimes.com

A ‘FORCEFIELD’ IN THE INDIE MUSIC WORLD DURING THE EARLY STAGES of writing for its new CD, “Forcefield,” the four members of Tokyo Police Club struggled to come up with songs that felt worthy of being on an album.

A whole batch of songs was ditched at the outset of the project.

It wasn’t a new sensation. The group experienced a similar bout of writers’ block with its first full-length album, 2008’s “Elephant Shell.” Coming off of the surprise success of its seven-song debut EP, “A Lesson In Crime” — which sold 30,000 copies despite being the first release from the band and being on a small Canadian label, Paper Bag Records — the group went into the studio to start writing the first full-length record. After two and a half weeks almost nothing worth keeping had been recorded.

Tokyo Police Club pulled through that scary moment, and drummer Greg Alsop said that frame of reference helped when the early stages of the “Forcefield” project only produced music that didn’t make the cut.

“I think that’s what kind of allowed us to keep pushing at it,” Alsop said in an early April phone interview. “It’s hard to remember that in the moment, when you are in that state of just total frustration over what you’re trying to do, and remember don’t worry, it always comes together at the end.

“But yeah, the struggle with ‘Elephant Shell’ was that we had to make a record’s amount of material when we had only ever written a handful of songs before,” he said. “This time it was more about surpassing what we had done before and holding ourselves to a standard we never really held ourselves to before and just never really being satisfied with what was coming out. I think eventually, if you keep pushing yourself to that, you hope that there will just be a breaking point when you come through and you’re like, ‘Oh, that’s why I was crawling through that tunnel for so long. There really was something at the end of it and we’re there now.’”

Tokyo Police Club indeed rose to the challenge with “Elephant Shell,” and made a debut album that, if

not as universally hailed as the EP, confirmed the promise of “A Lesson In Crime.” Then a sharp and catchy second full-length, 2010’s “Champ,” further solidified Tokyo Police Club’s place as one of the better new rock bands on the indie circuit.

Going into “Forcefield,” Alsop said, the group (which also includes singer/bassist David Monks, guitarist Josh Hook and keyboardist Graham Wright) was feeling the pressure to keep growing as a band and find more of a musical identity for itself.

Output, though, wasn’t a problem.

The bigger issue was trying to find a musical direction and sound that felt natural and right.

“There are some songs on there like ‘Beaches’ or ‘Argentina’ that came about pretty early on in the writing process,” Alsop said. “I think the challenge was just to come up with songs that felt like they would last. We wrote upward of like 50 songs in different states of being finished for this record. We had a lot of material, and it kind of spanned all of these different

genres. Like we had songs that were extremely poppy and songs that were very electronic and kind of sample based, and songs that had almost like more of a hip-hop groove to it.”

In the end, Tokyo Police Club landed on a sound rooted in one of the oldest rock ‘n’ roll approaches there is — electric guitars, bass and drums.

The music, though, has a decidedly modern attitude, and the group wasn’t afraid to apply modern touches to its songs. “Beaches” and “Toys,” for instance, have plenty of synthy and electronic tones mixed into the organic instrumentation.

The guitar-centric style works because Tokyo Police Club continues to turn out strong, hook-filled guitar pop/rock songs.

The album opens with “Argentina” (Parts 1, II, II), which starts things — pardon the pun — with a forceful blast of guitar rock before venturing into more expansive territory. For a band whose songs generally have clocked in at three minutes or so, this eight-minute track quite a statement.

From there, Tokyo Police Club keeps things concise and catchy, with the poppy first single, “Hot Tonight,” the shimmery “Miserable,” and the hard-hitting, slightly futuristic sounding “Tunnel Vision” among the highlights of the consistently strong CD. The growth Tokyo Police Club experienced in making “Forcefield” is carrying over to its live shows.

“We’re playing tighter than we ever have before, and we’re kind of paying attention to a lot of the intricacies of the songs in a way that I don’t think we were quite able to do live before,” he said. “So they’re sounding a lot like they do on the record, hopefully just bigger and louder.”

The SOCIAL SIDE of TOWN

RED BRICK OPEN HOUSE LAST WEEK the Red Brick Center for the Arts held an open house to show Aspenites the latest remodels in the studios and public spaces. Hanging in the main gallery were the artworks of students in the upper Roaring Fork Valley.

Undercurrent...I think this is the week to tell how the Red Brick and the Yellow Brick buildings got named.

MARY I had been covering ESHBAUGH HAYES the school board beat for some 20 years as a reporter-photographer-editor of The Aspen Times. During the 1980s, I got so tired of writing about “the former Upper Elementary School” and “the former Lower Elementary School” in my news stories so I just started calling them the “Red Brick School” and the “Yellow Brick School.”

Jarvis is a gorgeous brindle Mastiff/Staffie mix. This boy is really sweet and loving - a true breed ambasaador! He is an athletic boy yet takes treats gently and just smiles, adores getting attention and love. He was surrendered by his previous owners to a shelter because ‘their other dog died of cancer and Jarvis just became so depressed that they “couldn’t stand it”…SO..they took him to a kill shelter! The shelter staff absolutely loved him and said he integrated into all the different doggie play groups beautifully and was submissive to cats. His foster mom says he is a great boy, housetrained and a wiggle butt. He is living with a toy poodle. He is stunning with a gorgeous Blue and Gold brindle coat. He is current on vaccinations, neutered and microchipped. If you are interested in making Jarvis part of your family, please fill out an application on www.luckydayrescue.org or call Sarah on 970-618-4108 with questions.

Decreed water right for which change is sought: C and M Ditch. Date of Original and all Relevant Subsequent Decrees: CA0132, May 11, 1889, Garfield Co. District Court. Legal description of structure as described in most recent decree that adjudicated the location: The point of diversion of the C and M Ditch is on the south bank of Cattle Creek in the SW1/4 of the NE1/4 of Section 9, Township 7 South, Range 87 West of the 6th P.M., 2,200 feet south of the north section line and 1,491 feet west of the East section line. The headgate location is shown in Exhibit B. Decreed source of water: Cattle Creek, tributary to the Roaring Fork River and the Colorado River. Appropriation Date: C and M Ditch, June 26, 1885 (CA0132). Total amount decreed to structure in gallons per minute (gpm) or cubic feet per second (cfs): Absolute: 6 cfs as Priority No. 128 decreed in Case CA0132. Decreed use or uses: Irrigation. Amount of water that Applicant intends to change: Absolute: 0.07 cfs from Priority No. 128. Detailed description of proposed change: Applicant owns 1.03 cfs of the 6 cfs, absolute, of the C and M Ditch Priority No. 128 water right. The water supplies associated with the Applicant’s share of Priority 128 historically irrigated 44.3 acres of grass hay. Applicant seeks to dry up 3.0 acres of historically irrigated land under C and M Ditch Priority No. 128 and to change the water associated therewith to storage and augmentation uses. Applicant estimates that ditch efficiency from the headgate to Applicant’s property is 66%. The estimated irrigation efficiency is 50%. In a dry year (such as 2002) for each acre of dry-up under the C and M Ditch Priority No. 128, 0.74 acre-feet of historic consumptive use is available to the Applicant. Table 4, Column 2, attached as Exhibit C. In a dry year, the historic consumptive use associated with the 3.0 acres of dry up is 2.22 acre-feet (Table 4, Column No. 3, attached as Exhibit C). The changed amount corresponds to a direct flow of 0.07 cfs. The water associated with the 0.07 cfs will be stored in an off-channel pond and released to meet the augmentation obligations described herein. Historically irrigated areas that are dried up shall be monumented by the Applicant and shall no longer be irrigated by the C and M Ditch water rights. Fifth Claim: Application for Approval of Plan for Augmentation. Name of structures to be augmented: Clifford Cerise Ranch Company Well Nos. 1, 2 and 3, described above. Water rights to be used for augmentation: C and M Ditch (Priority No. 128), described above. Does the Applicant intend to change a water right to provide a source of augmentation? Yes. The claim for Change of Water Right is presented above. Complete statement of plan for augmentation: The Applicant intends to develop three home sites on its property. Each homesite will have a single family residence, an accessory dwelling unit, lawn/garden irrigation of up to 4,000 square feet (.093 acres) per lot (for a combined total of 0.28 acres), and up to four head of livestock (for a combined total of up to twelve head of livestock). Water will be supplied to the homes and their associated lawns, gardens, and livestock by the Clifford Cerise Ranch Company Well Nos. 1, 2, and 3. Collectively, the three wells will divert 2.35 acre-feet. (Table 1, Column 1, attached as Exhibit D). Domestic wastewater will be treated by ISDS with an estimated 90% of domestic water returning to the Crystal Springs drainage. The consumptive depletions associated with the Clifford Cerise Ranch Well Nos. 1, 2 and 3 amount to 1.2 acre-feet. Table 1, Column No. 7, attached as Exhibit D. Pumping from the wells will result in delayed impacts to the Crystal Springs drainage.

The timing and volume effects of groundwater pumping from the Clifford Cerise Ranch Company Well Nos. 1, 2 and 3 is described on a Table 4, Column 4, attached as Exhibit C. The Applicant seeks to augment out-of-priority depletions from the Clifford Cerise Ranch Company Well Nos. 1, 2, and 3 to the Crystal Spring drainage with releases from an off-channel pond that will store water associated with historic consumptive use from C and M Ditch Priority No. 128. Applicant will divert up to 0.07 cfs from the C and M Ditch into the pond during the irrigation season. The pond will have an active volume of at least 1.56 acre-feet with no more than 0.33 acres surface area. From the historic consumptive use associated with the changed C and M Ditch water right, 1.2 acre-feet will be available for release to the Crystal Springs drainage to replace out of priority depletions from the Clifford Cerise Ranch Company Well Nos. 1, 2, and 3, and 1.02 acre-feet will offset evaporation from the pond. 0.66 acre-feet of this amount will be replaced to the by bypassing a portion of the C&M Ditch water right directly to the Crystal Springs drainage. 1.56 acre-feet of this amount will be replaced by releasing water stored in the pond to the Crystal Springs drainage. A schedule of augmentation bypasses and releases is in Table 4, Columns 7 and 8, attached as Exhibit C. To maintain historical return flow patters both in the Cattle Creek Drainage and the Crystal Springs

Drainage, Applicant will continue to divert 1.03 cfs at the C and M Ditch headgate on Cattle Creek and to flow such water to the Applicant’s property in the Crystal Springs drainage. Applicant assumes that ditch losses to Applicant’s property consist of approximately 33% of total diversions.

Thereby, ditch seepage will continue to occur consistent with historic practice in both the Cattle Creek and the Crystal Springs drainages. Applicant will also continue to irrigate 41.3 acres on Applicant’s property with its remaining interest in the C and M Ditch. All remaining C and M Ditch diversions associated with the three (3) acres of dry up will be bypassed to the Crystal Springs drainage. Applicant may identify an alternative source of augmentation water as permitted by C.R.S. §37-92-305(8). Does the plan for augmentation include an exchange that the Applicant desires to adjudicate? No. Names and addresses of owners of the land upon which structures are located. Clifford Cerise Ranch Company Well Nos. 1, 2 and 3: Applicant.

BOOK REVIEW

‘BREAKFAST WITH BUDDHA’ IT IS OFTEN SAID that it is in humor that the truth dwells. Comedians claim a rare position, in that they have fairly free rein to poke fun at serious subjects.

It is also said that those with a sense of humor are often more intuitive and insightful. To find wit in the banal or conventional themes of life is truly a gift, and it requires an open mind and a willingness to approach a subject from different angles.

Author Roland Merullo is clearly one such person. Tackling religion and spirituality in a respectful manner is not unique, of course, but approaching the subject with easy banter and cleverness is unusual and refreshing. His novel “Breakfast With Buddha” finds that balanced sweet spot, opening up the story to believers and skeptics alike.

From the outset, “Breakfast With Buddha” brings to mind those masters of human observation, Bill Bryson and Mark Twain. Self-deprecating and filled

‘Breakfast with Buddha’ Roland Merullo Paperback: 336 pages Algonquin Books; reprint edition

with nostalgia, the novel follows the unlikely journey of Otto, your average middle-aged, middle-class American male, as he drives from New York City to North Dakota to settle his deceased parents’ estate.

That scenario, in itself, could provide enough fodder for spiritual musings and philosophical contemplation, as the “open road” in literature has long been the symbolic palette for metaphor and meaning. But, it is the presence of Otto’s surprise driving companion that really takes “Breakfast With Buddha” to a higher plain. His flighty sister foists upon him Volya Rinpoche, a spiritual teacher hoping to open a meditation center on the family property.

With humor and a good bit of swearing, a modern-day vision quest commences, with teacher and student personified in both characters, each learning from the other about life, expectations, beliefs and letting go of
