RED HOOK & THE CHOCOLATE FESTIVAL RETURNS ON SATURDAY

he Chocolate Factory in Red Hook was founded in 1888 by William H. Baker – no relation to the older, more famous Walter H. Baker Company, but Red Hook’s Baker was not above exploiting the coincidence to promote his business, starting what became known as the Chocolate Wars. At the height of production, 20,000 pounds of chocolate were produced each day. New techniques in refrigeration changed the game in the early 1920s, though, and the declining Red Hook factory was sold to the Walker Candy Company, closing in 1932. While the former factory building has in more recent years been repurposed as a rental space for businesses, the Village of Red Hook keeps its sweet tradition alive with an annual celebration called…not the Red Hook Chocolate Festival, but the syntactically significant Red Hook & the Chocolate Festival. The title is meant to evoke associations with the Roald Dahl children’s book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and the two movies based on it, one of them titled Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Indeed, a Wonka-themed event with special prizes for holders of Golden Tickets has historically been among the attractions of the festival, which returns to downtown Red Hook for the sixth time on Saturday, November 2. A Wandering Wonka is rumored to be haunting the streets of the village this year. Downtown businesses and vendors will be offering tastings of chocolatey treats all day; from noon to 4 p.m., the Elmendorph Inn will host a presentation by the county historian on the story of the Chocolate Factory and a demonstration of how chocolate was first made; the Chocolate Wars Dessert Competition gets underway at 1 p.m. at 7509 North Broadway. There will be hayrides, live music and a community art project, which in past years has sometimes manifested as an enormous chalk mural on the downtown pavements. Red Hook & the Chocolate Festival 2019 happens from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, November 2. For more details, visit www.redhookchamber.org or www.facebook.com/redhookchocolatefest.

Critics are calling Pain and Glory the Spanish auteur’s crowning semiautobiographical work, comparing it to Fellini’s 81/2. Almodóvar’s ﬁlm is also being lauded, justly, as a career high for Antonio Banderas.

How Salvador got his groove back Almodóvar attains career pinnacle with Pain and Glory

here’s a scene in Pedro Almodóvar’s latest film, Pain and Glory, in which the 60ish protagonist, Salvador Mallo, instructs an actor not to get too sentimental when he delivers a deeply personal monologue that Mallo wrote – that it would be more effective for the

audience to see him fighting back tears, rather than shedding them. The actor brags that he can do melodrama better than anyone, but the screenwriter/director says that, late in his career, he’s done with melodrama. That moment in a nutshell encapsulates what’s going on here with Almodóvar’s oeuvre, and it explains why many critics are calling Pain and Glory the Spanish auteur’s crowning semiautobiographical work, comparing it to Fellini’s 8 ½. The film is also being lauded, justly, as a career high for Antonio Banderas, who portrays Salvador with exactly the sort of nuance and restraint for which the actor is normally not noted (see his arm-waving performance as Ramón Fonseca in The Laundromat, recently reviewed in these pages, by way of contrast). Banderas took the Best Actor prize at Cannes for this role. Almodóvar’s meteoric rise to fame in the 1980s was fueled largely by the giddy cultural renaissance that followed the demise of Francisco Franco, known as La Movida Madrileña, and characterized by a willingness to take on subject matter previously regarded as shocking in his country. The director depicted women in revolt against machismo, unapologetic gay and trans characters, BD/SM themes, corruption and sexual abuse within

the Catholic Church. He assimilated the transgressive inspiration of John Waters, along with the rest of the history of cinema. Shock value, camp, parody and melodrama were all calling cards of Almodóvar’s early career. Sometimes the results were brilliant; sometimes they fell flat. Over time, the director’s approach calmed down somewhat, in terms of narrative and characterization. His Pop Art visual palette remained consistent, however, with the photography, set and costume design relying on bold primary

colors to seize the eye and not let go. Pain and Glory is mesmerizing on more than the cinematographic level, however: It leads us through a story that remains compelling even when some of its threads lead nowhere. Characters appear, seem briefly important, drop out again…and yet the audience is kept hanging on, yearning to know if Salvador is going to make it through the challenges of his maturity. Primary among those challenges are literal physical and psychic pain. We learn early in the film, through a lively animated sequence, that Salvador’s life has been

SAUGERTIESâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ORPHEUM THEATER UP FOR SALE

re you a classic cinema buff? Got $795K rattling around in your pocket? One of the mid-Hudsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last remaining old-timey movie palaces, the Orpheum Theater at 156 Main Street in Saugerties, has been put up for sale. It may need saving, as Win Morrison Realty is advertising the space as suitable for conversion to â&#x20AC;&#x153;many other uses,â&#x20AC;? possibly including â&#x20AC;&#x153;a school, recording studio or performing arts center.â&#x20AC;? Built in 1908 by the Davis family, the Orpheum started its life as a vaudeville theater, a popular stop on the circuit between the Collingwood Opera House (now the Bardavon) in Poughkeepsie and similar venues in Albany. Burns and Allen, Gypsy Rose Lee and Cary Grant, when his name was still Archibald Leach, were among the showbiz luminaries on record as having performed live at the Orpheum. The original floor was flat, suitable to be cleared of seats for dances and even roller-skating. Byron S. Thornton, patriarch of the family who (as of this writing) still owns the 6,480-square-foot building, acquired it in 1919, renovated it and installed a sloping floor more suitable for film projection. With the advent of â&#x20AC;&#x153;talkies,â&#x20AC;? speakers were installed in the 1930s, and the space acquired a reputation for excellent acoustics. By the turn of the millennium the single-screen auditorium was divided up into a triplex, with two of the theater spaces seating 138 viewers and the third seating 145. The 35 mm reel-to-reel film projectors were converted to digital systems in 2012, with a 3-D-capable projection and screen installed in one theater. About 20 miles to the south in Rosendale, a single-screen cinema of similar vintage was rescued from conversion to â&#x20AC;&#x153;other usesâ&#x20AC;? by a collective of determined community activists who managed to scrape together enough donations to buy the building from the family who had run it for generations and were ready to retire. Grant funding followed, enabling the Rosendale Theatre to undergo a long, gradual series of renovations that preserved its vintage look and feel. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now a prized community asset, still showing movies, run by a not-for-profit organization. But a $795,000 pricetag is a lot of money for local historic preservation buffs to raise. If any Almanac Weekly readers happen to know anyone with a fondness for small Hudson Valley towns and nostalgic spaces for going to the movies, now would be a good time to give them a heads-up. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Frances Marion Platt

failure. But the reunion with his former filmmaking colleague â&#x20AC;&#x201C; inspired, in all likelihood, by the long falling-out between AlmodĂłvar and Banderas, whose own career got a major boost from his appearances in several of the directorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s early works â&#x20AC;&#x201C; leads to another powerful reckoning with the past. Browsing Salvadorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s laptop while the director is zoned out on caballo, Alberto finds a confessional film treatment that he immediately wants to perform as a staged monologue. The director agrees to let him use it, so long as his own name is not attached, because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all about his lost love Federico (Leonardo Sbaraglia), whom Salvador tried to save from addiction long ago. Coincidence brings Federico to Albertoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s performance; he recognizes himself in the story and seeks out Salvador. There is, apparently, such a thing as life after heroin. The recurring theme of addiction makes Pain and Glory sound darker and direr in tone than it ultimately is. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plenty of humor to be found here, alongside genuine pathos that never descends into bathos. Like Salvador, AlmodĂłvar, late in life, has found in himself a discipline lacking in his early works that can coexist nicely alongside an irreverent outlook on culture, past and present. Even if he made no more movies after this one, Pain and Glory would serve as a transcendent capstone to an always-provocative cinematic career. Recommended. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Frances Marion Platt

FDR site screens new documentary on Frances Perkins, architect of the New Deal, on Sunday

plagued with a list of ailments that sound like the obsessions of a hypochondriac, from asthma to migraines to depression to every imaginable orthopedic problem â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re real. We first see him immersed in a swimming pool, a long scar down his back denoting the extent of his recent spinal fusion surgery. With clenched posture and tense facial expressions every time the character stands or sits, Banderas clearly conveys the daily reality that has made this driven, once-highly-successful artist lose his mojo. Salvadorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s struggle to get it back is the meat of this story; but it takes many forays into the lessons of the past to rekindle the flame of creation. At the outset, the unhappily retired director has just gotten word of an offer to give a talkback following a screening of a freshly remastered print of one of his early breakthrough films, now lauded as a classic. The hitch: The lead actor, Alberto Crespo (Asier Etxeandia), has to be there too, and the two havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t spoken in more than 30 years because Salvador hated the heaviness with which the junkie actor had embodied what was supposed to be a manic, comic role. In retrospect, the director can see the brilliance of Albertoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s performance, and he steels himself to reach out and try to make amends.

At Albertoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house, on a whim, Salvador asks to try heroin for the first time. Not only does it ease his constant pain, but it also triggers sublime flights of memory from his childhood: the hard-to-please mother (Penelope Cruz) whom he adored, the whitewashed cave in the Valencian town of Paterna where they lived, the

Even if Frances Perkins hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been the first woman ever to serve in a US presidential cabinet, or the longestserving Secretary of Labor ever (12 years), she would still deserve a shining place in 20th-century history. She was a suffragist who retained her own

hunky handyman (CĂŠsar Vicente) who triggered his first pangs of desire. The film later follows up on these themes as they played out in the more recent past, with Salvadorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s futile efforts to ease the dying days of his elderly mother (Julieta Serrano) the key, perhaps, to his sense of

As Secretary of Labor, Perkins was the author of key New Deal legislation, including the Fair Labor Standards Act and the Social Security Act of 1935. As chair of the President’s Committee on Economic Security, she helped created back-to-work programs including the Civilian Conservation Corps, the Public Works Administration, the Federal Works Agency and the National Industrial Recovery Act.

CATSKILL ANIMAL SANCTUARY HOSTS GOBBLE & GROOVE BARN BASH ON SATURDAY

re you a vegan or vegetarian who feels a little left out of the fun this time of year? Is your favorite part of Thanksgiving the presidential pardon for a couple of turkeys? The Catskill Animal Sanctuary (CAS) is planning some festivities this weekend that will help get you into the holiday mood. The event is called Gobble & Groove, and in years past it was a daytime fall festival geared toward little kids. But this Saturday, it will morph into an evening party featuring dinner, drinks, dancing and more, to be held next door at the Fortune Valley Manor. Attendees are asked to arrive and park at the Manor by 4 p.m. At 4:30, the annual feeding of the turkeys at CAS gets underway, with a serenade by guitarist Maggie Rothwell. Then comes feeding pumpkins to the pigs at 5 p.m. The action moves indoors to the barn at Fortune Valley Manor at 5:30, and Sanctuary founder/director Kathy Stevens will deliver “an inspiring call to action” at 8 p.m. Your ticket includes a full meal, dessert, all non-alcoholic beverages and two drink tickets for beer or wine (additional beer and wine may be purchased). The menu includes a Build Your Own Chili Bowl featuring smoky three-bean chili with all the fixins, hearty cornbread, a seasonal salad and apple cobbler with ice cream and caramel sauce. The Brooklyn-based band Astrograss will get people dancing with an eclectic, rootsy blend of bluegrass, old-time and folk music. New to Gobble & Groove this year are games, including giant Jenga and Connect 4, cornhole, tabletop bowling and shuffleboard, and a photobooth. The event is recommended for kids ages 12 and older. Tickets cost $50 per person, $45 for CAS members, $360 for a table for eight. All proceeds benefit the Catskill Animal Sanctuary. To order, visit https://casanctuary.org/event/30942.

NATURE

To bee or not to be Rosendale Theatre screens The Pollinators on Wednesday

his past July, you may have noticed news articles reporting that, at a meeting of the Royal Geographical Society of London, the Earthwatch Institute declared bees to be the most important living beings on Planet Earth. These biologists weren’t the first to make this observation: The statement, “If the bee disappears from the surface of the Earth, man would have no more than four years to live,” has been widely attributed to Albert Einstein. But many bee species are now endangered; recent studies show that almost 90 percent of the bee population has disappeared in the last few years. And 70 percent of the world’s agriculture depends exclusively on bees. One out of every three bites we eat – the growth of almost all our fruits, nuts and vegetables – would be impossible without pollination from bees. A new documentary film, The Pollinators, tracks the professional beekeepers who transport tens of billions of honeybees back and forth from one end of the US to the other in the dead of night, in a unique annual migration that’s indispensable to the feeding of America. Directed by Peter Nelson and produced by Sally Roy, Peter Nelson and Michael Reuter, The Pollinators presents this fascinating untold story and warns that the bees are in serious danger. Should we be worried? You bet. The Rosendale Theatre will host a special one-time screening of The Pollinators at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, November 6. Admission costs $10 at the door, plus a $1 additional booking fee if you reserve your spot online in advance at https://tickets. demand.film/event/8957.

producer, Marcina Hale, and mycologist Sam Donato – noted for having grown a chess set out of mushroom mycelium – will lead the post-screening discussion. Tickets cost $14 general admission, $12 for members, and can be reserved online at http://bit.ly/2p4Lttk. The following Saturday, November 9 at 7 p.m., brings in Making Waves: a film directed by Midge Costin that reveals the hidden power of sound in cinema and introduces us to the unsung heroes who create it. It features insights from the legendary directors with whom they collaborate, such as George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, David Lynch, Barbra Streisand, Ang Lee, Sofia Coppola and Ryan Coogler, working with sound design pioneers – Walter Murch, Ben Burtt and Gary Rydstrom – and the many women and men who followed in their footsteps. Emmy Award-winning sound designer, composer and music producer Ruy Garcia will conduct the Q&A following the screening. Tickets cost $14 general admission, $12 for members, and can be reserved online at http://bit. ly/2MCGYQ1. On Sunday, November 10 at 11 a.m., FilmWorks Forum brings Rob Fruchtman’s documentary Moving Stories to the Moviehouse, with the director himself in attendance to lead the discussion afterwards. Seeing dance as a universal language, Battery Dance Company founder Jonathan Hollander created Dancing to Connect, in which his dancers travel the globe to teach the tools of creativity to youth who’ve experienced war, poverty, sexual violence, extreme prejudice and severe trauma, enabling them to express their feelings and stories through dance. Moving Stories follows them to four countries: India, Romania, South Korea and Iraq. This screening is free and open to the public, with no tickets required.

MUSIC Mateo & Dougan Band celebrate release of Time to Fly on Saturday at Mt. Tremperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Catskill Pines

A fascinating and underdiscussed consideration of popular music is how the compositional instrument â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the instrument upon which a songwriter writes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; can have a fundamental and definitive effect on virtually every dimension of the result: the rhythmic, sonic, harmonic and even lyrical tendencies of the writer. In the pre-singer/songwriter age, primary axe was less of an issue because the details of a recording ultimately fell into the hands of highly skilled arrangers with huge paintboxes. After Dylan and the Beatles made it clear that writers were supposed to sing and play their own songs, the inherent properties and propensities of the instrument really began to assert themselves in pop history. Consider, for example, the piano. While piano rock is as various as guitar rock, there are certain rhythmic sweet spots that just give and give, and that writers will continue to discover for as long as

swamp and soul evocations, if no single straight blues; and a buoyant, moving end-of-days ballad that Mr. Hornsby would not be ashamed of (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Time to Flyâ&#x20AC;?). It is indeed a roots record, but one with the keyboard and its rhythmic potentialities at its center. If pressed for a genre, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be left with nothing except the awkward â&#x20AC;&#x153;grooveoriented piano songwriter rock,â&#x20AC;? executed at a very high level. The Mateo in question is keyboardist and singer/songwriter Carl Mateo, a songwriter and player with a knack for making the not-so-easy sound pretty simple. Mateo sings with a lagging, conversational patience. He sounds like should be falling behind the band, but he never does. His songs draw on roots mythos as upon relationships, maintaining a kind of hermetic Old World lyrical space, but always with a super-light touch. There is a bit of Biblical heft in his themes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and not just on the traditional he covers, the gospelized â&#x20AC;&#x153;Revelator,â&#x20AC;? which bounces gracefully between halfand skittish double-time funk, thanks to maestro Eric Parker behind the kit. Peter Dougan has been playing guitar at Mateoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s side for a number of years. Usually, when a non-writing guitarist is named in a bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s masthead, we expect a pretty plush lane kept open for lead guitar exposition, especially in those genres â&#x20AC;&#x201C; like these â&#x20AC;&#x201C; that still recognize the solo as a valid use of time.

MUSIC

MAYA HAWKE PLAYS COLONY ON NOVEMBER 6 Actress, model and songwriter Maya Hawke brings her intimate and sophisticated songcraft to Colony in Woodstock on Thursday, November 6. The daughter of actress Uma Thurman and actor Ethan Hawke made her screen debut as Jo March in the 2017 BBC adaptation of Little Women and starred as Robin in the third season of the Netflix series Stranger Things. As a musician, she works frequently with the Grammy-winning writer and producer Jesse Harris, who is well-known in this area, particularly for his work with Norah Jones, Madeleine Peyroux and others. The earliest fruit of their collaboration, the single “To Love a Boy,” is an agreeable cabaret stumble-waltz of sorts, its B-side, “Stay Hushed,” a purring specimen of whisper-pop. Noted Brooklyn guitarist Will Graefe (Okkervil River, Renata Zeiguer, Petra Haden) also performs. Tickets cost $15 in advance, $20 on the day of the show. – John Burdick Maya Hawke, Thursday, Nov. 6, 8 p.m., $20/$15, Colony, 22 Rock City Rd., Woodstock, www.colonywoodstock.com

is player of elegant restraint and extreme song-oriented values – a modern player, in that respect. It is a slow burn, but by the end of this record, re: Dougan, you find yourself saying, “Damn.” When he does step out, there is a hyperarticulate quality to his playing: a delectation of notes and a knack for interesting melodic choices within the idiom that will remind some people of Mark Knopfler, others of Jerry Garcia – though Dougan favors a much more round, syrupy and delay-enhanced

tone than either of those masters of the thin and crispy. The Woodstock A-list rhythm section of Eric Parker and bassist Kyle Esposito really elevates these jams – and at times, they really are jams, as in the blossoming ending of the highlight track “Hey English.” For all of this record’s rangy groove mastery and expansive moments, one of its brightest moments is the closing track, “Jack and the Bean,” a voice and guitar duet between Mateo and his

daughter Ava. It reminds us of what has actually been clear all along to anyone

NAIL, the ongoing fusion, funk and jazz project led by keyboardist Neil Alexander, returns to the Falcon Underground on Saturday, November 2 as part of the band’s ongoing celebration of its 20 th year. In their compositions, Alexander and company draw broadly from the jazz fusion well, with the work of Joe Zawinul (Weather Report) as an especially important reference point. Like Zawinul, Alexander is a master player and technologist. His live keyboard rig resembles the bridge of a spaceship. The music moves gracefully between precise orchestration and wild ensemble improvisation. On this date, Alexander is joined by his regular cohorts Nadav Snir-Zelniker on drums, Peter Furlan on saxophones, Brian Mooney on bass and special guest Beledo on guitar. There is no cover charge at the Falcon, but there’s a box and you know what to put in it. NAIL Saturday, Nov. 2, 8 p.m. Donation The Falcon Underground 1348 Rt. 9W, Marlboro www.liveatthefalcon.com

Laura Cantrell plays in Phoenicia on Saturday A storied and inclusive international folk music series based out of Phoenicia, Flying Cat Music presents Laura Cantrell and her band on Saturday, November 2. The sensational Nashvilleborn country revivalist Cantrell has played out much of her career, as those operating in old traditions have had to, in New York, a metropolis ever-hungry for the weird, the old, the organic and other antidotes to, like, New York. Meanwhile, the country music seat in the South courts such coastal elite values as, you know, youth, technology and relevance, producing what Steve Earle has described as hip hop for people who are afraid of black people. It’s all just a big mess of contradictions, the lot of it. Laura Cantrell, however, is a beautiful singer and a deep songwriter. “Cantrell brings bell-like vocal clarity to her stories, which illuminate more than explain – just enough to make you want to hear ’em again,” writes Rolling Stone. For the Flying Cat show, Cantrell will perform with upright bassist George Rush, fiddleplayer Kenny Kosek and North Carolinian Boo Reiners on guitar.

Janis: Her Life and Music

be “perfect” people or overlook their dark side. I am looking at the whole person, not just their artistic output. Flawed people are much more fascinating and make better subjects. I can look at their work within the context of their lives, so when analyzing their work, I try to see the whole picture. The story of American music is largely the relationship between black and white, and Janis is right on the fulcrum of that. I myself am reluctant to describe the spread of music as “appropriation.” Without appropriation, we wouldn’t have very much interesting music. Still, just to play Devil’s advocate for a moment: For all of her fiery passion, some might say that Janis’ is a borrowed authenticity. Ultimately, how do you position her in the impossibly complex and irresolvable black/white narrative of American music?

Holly George-Warren reads from her new biography in Woodstock and Rhinebeck

rom a purely technical perspective, the writing of a music biography is dauntingly complex, and Phoenicia resident Holly George-Warren is a certified high adept: a master rock researcher and storyteller widely celebrated as one of the best. For her 16th book, the twotime Grammy nominee trained her lens on one of the biggest and most culturally resonant of all the rock targets: Janis Joplin. The fruit of her labor, Janis: Her Life and Music (Simon & Schuster; 2019), is quickly being recognized as a vital new contribution to the literature, as well as a kind of necessary bias correction. Many of the myths regarding Joplin read out like cautionary, puritanical sermons, luridly celebrating her passionate performances as something inspired and beyond her control, meanwhile excoriating her for her weakness, the demons and hedonism that ultimately defeated her. The standard line on Janis has allowed precious little acknowledgment of her personal agency, her seriousness of purpose and her accelerating artistic growth and self-determination, all of which are major and richly substantiated themes in George-Warren’s deeply engaging new biography. The luminous first 100+ pages of George-Warren’s Janis dwell on Joplin’s youth in the Texas oil town of Port Arthur. George-Warren’s eye for family psychology and cultural time and place are keen, as is her ear for the complex musical milieu in which a generational talent like this might form. From glee club and church choir singing to frequent adventures with boys to music clubs on the other side of the tracks, Janis emerges as a paradox: an uninhibited, transgressive rebel as well as a sensitive and easily injured outcast, but one who was artistically gifted and serious from the start about music. The parallel story of Joplin’s selfdestructiveness and drug- and alcoholbased coping strategies receives a candid and detailed treatment as well. In fact, Joplin’s rise out of Port Arthur happens in a series of promising solo flights to other places – Southern California, Austin – that are ultimately derailed by the singer’s addictive tendencies, with all roads leading back to Port Arthur for repair. As the narrative moves into Joplin’s meteoric arrival on the San Francisco scene, George-Warren intensifies her focus on music, again and again delivering us a Janis who really knew what she was doing in music – a practical scholar of the blues and an increasingly commanding presence in the old boys’ club of the studio, as well as on the stage. The texture of George-Warren’s writing is masterful, an elegant distillation of ground-scouring research and a robust interpretive dimension as person, time

She loved black music during a time and place where to even get to experience it was difficult…She became a student of Lead Belly and Bessie Smith, among others, and by absorbing their music, she was able to develop her own unique voice. She wasn’t trying to copy or appropriate their music; instead, their music helped her reach deep inside herself and tap into her own sorrows and “blues” and manifest them in her singing. She was attacked by male critics for trying to sound “black”; these same critics sometimes discussed her body parts and physical appearance as well. I don’t recall reading at the same time of criticism of artists like Eric Clapton or the Allman Brothers.

and place and music fuse into one tragic but ultimately redemptive story. Your previous book was about a beloved but somewhat cultic and attention-averse figure in Big Star’s Alex Chilton. How did it feel to move from that kind of challenge to a rock Rushmore figure in Janis? Actually, I knew Alex. He produced one of my bands, and I had interviewed him and seen him play a ton of times, so I had a lot more access and up-close-andpersonal interaction with him. I knew lots of people who knew Alex and were in his bands, but I still had to win their trust and get them to talk to me. I only knew Janis through her music and the image/ persona she created, so to find the “real” Janis I had to really dig, go back and trace her path as a musician, which was the part of her journey that I wanted to focus on. Since she was born in 1943, I had to go much further back to figure out her early years. Researchers and biographers tend to place a value on the original find or the novel interpretation. On that level, of revelation and adding to the body of critical work, what do you see as some of the chief contributions of your new book? I focus on her musicianship: how she

became a blues scholar as a teenager and continued in a lifelong quest to evolve as a musician and singer, and how she was moving toward becoming a producer by the time she died while making Pearl. When you take on a long-term challenge like that, how deep in your head does the subject get? Are there times when you worry about your own psychological health, or at this stage in your career, is it easier to maintain critical detachment? I don’t worry about my psychological health, but my subject definitely becomes part of my life. And they never leave me; I still think about/care about both Gene Autry and Alex Chilton. I never get tired of talking about them. I don’t think it’s an attribute to be detached as a writer of biographies. I think being passionate about your subject makes for better writing and better analysis of your subject. I never try to make them

As I have watched Strawberry’s bookings rise in the last few years, taking them to Brooklyn, Philadelphia and Calgary and filling their pockets with bills, I can’t help but notice that locally, they play all the same rooms I do, or used to. From the New Paltz bars to BSP and now to Woodstock’s elegant and historic room, I struggle to find gigs, while my child and their ilk are “killing it.” Circle of Life stuff, I guess. “Forbidden Fruit: Haunted Hotel” is copresented by Strawberry and local visual

macabre and occult before you enter the increasingly long and stale holiday season?” If so, Colony is the place to be. Through some connections, I was able to finagle an interview with my only child while they were literally between brunch and dinner gigs in Calgary. How do you feel about booking an elegant and historic room like Colony? It is very exciting. This show was created with Colony in mind. This is not us pitching it to multiple venues; it was cultivated specifically for this space because of its historical implications. Our inspirations for this show were The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Miyazaki’s masterpiece Spirited Away and American Horror Story Hotel. I’ve always been fascinated by old, abandoned hotels where, like, wealthy has-beens spend their lives slowly rotting away into irrelevance: the former wealthy baroness who lives out her last days drinking alone in a room in a once-great inn. Having a show

that cultivates that energy and doing it in a lovingly renovated old hotel is really special. Speaking of old people drinking themselves to death, why are you stealing my shows? People used to like guitars before you came along. You don’t wear enough wigs. If you put on a wig and did the same thing you are doing, you’d make as much money as me. Drag is a fascinating poly-art: part dance, part music and music curation, part theatricality and design and definitely part hip cultural theory as well. And it is red-hot right now. Your demographic trends younger. What about people outside the scene? What can they expect? What is in it for them? I’m trying to welcome a new type of audience. Drag in the Hudson Valley predominantly happens late, and in bars. In a bar environment you can

Your carbon mouthprint

his ought to puzzle you. The question should drive you crazy. Let’s put it simply: Everyone knows we breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. The issue is: Where does all your exhaled carbon come from? How can your body be constantly supplying carbon to send it wafting out into the air? Let’s first zoom in on the breathing process. Earth’s air is composed of 78 percent nitrogen and 21 percent oxygen, which leaves a mere one percent for everything else. Almost all of that residual stuff is a single element, argon. But because today’s focus is on greenhouse gases, a lot of press surrounds the most abundant of those climate-change elements: carbon dioxide. You’ll be amazed to learn that CO2 only comprises 1/25th of one percent of the air we breathe. It’s 20 times less prevalent then even argon. It’s barely there at all. So, to review quickly, we constantly inhale a gaseous mixture that is 78 percent nitrogen, 21 percent oxygen, one percent argon, and 1/25th of one percent carbon dioxide. With each out-breath, we release a gaseous mixture that is 78 percent nitrogen, 17 percent oxygen, one percent argon and four percent carbon dioxide. Comparing inhalations with exhalations, we see that the nitrogen and argon concentrations have not budged, because our bodies have no use for them. The big change is that oxygen has gone down by four percent and carbon dioxide has gone up by four percent. The fact that we exhale so much oxygen surprises many people, and answers a question that may have troubled you: How can breathing into the mouth of an accident victim be helpful, if we’re only breathing out useless CO2? Now you know: We’re not! The breath you give to an unconscious person has nearly as much oxygen as fresh air.

How can our bodies possibly be coughing up such an unrelenting nonstop stream of carbon, when we breathe in almost none of it?

have a really great safe queer space, but that doesn’t necessarily make it a great performance space for artists. I want to use the Colony and the earlier start time to appeal to people who really want to see the art, where the performances are the absolute centerpiece of the show. I think that an older Woodstock crowd would find a lot to love about this kind of show. The Woodstock area probably has a lot of people who have not been exposed to the drag community as yet, and now they can see a drag show at a reasonable hours in an elegant environment, and they can really appreciate the validity and inspiration in what we do. Where did I go wrong? You read me [Junot Diaz’s] The Brief and Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao when I was eight. You read me One Hundred Years of Solitude when I was eight, as well. I really think it was the literature.

that you’re either a Pride Queen or a Halloween Queen, meaning most people who do drag did it for the first time either at Pride or at Halloween. I did drag for the first time at Pride. Can I have some of my gigs back? You’re going to have to beg for it like a dog. – John Burdick Forbidden Fruit: Haunted Hotel Saturday, Nov. 2, 7 p.m. $15 day of show/$12 in advance Colony 22 Rock City Rd., Woodstock www.colonywoodstock.com

Sponsors needed by Thanksgiving for Wreaths across America Day

Good to know, though I don’t see what I can do about it now. So, you’ve been in Calgary for nearly two weeks, performing a lot. How’s the drag scene there? Cold? How does it compare to the Brooklyn scene you are so familiar with, and the Hudson Valley scene you helped build? Calgary has a long-running drag king community. There’s also a big, burgeoning alternative scene centered around a show called Shock Therapy, with performers like my partner Mauve, Flute Girl, Hermena and others who are bringing a strong sense of alternative drag to a scene that was previously divided between an oldschool Top 40 crowd and a predominantly lesbian drag king crowd. The alternative scene has really taken over, centered around this club called Dickens. It’s a young, very trans and non-binary crowd. It’s still very new and has a ways to go, but it’s off to an amazing start. Is Halloween just like any other holiday you might spoof and work with, or is there a special connection between drag and Halloween and ideas of transformation and such? The more you do drag, the less special Halloween becomes, because every weekend is Halloween. There’s a theory

DION OGUST | ALMANAC WEEKLY

But now to our big baffling question: If we breathe in air that’s only 1/25th of one percent carbon dioxide and then breathe out four percent carbon dioxide, it means we’re introducing a steady stream of carbon into our planet’s air. Where does this carbon come from? How can our bodies possibly be coughing up such an unrelenting nonstop stream of carbon, when we breathe in almost none of it? Ever wonder about this? Want to put down the paper and think about it? Or do you simply want the answer? Okay, the answer is: The carbon comes from sugar. That’s because most of what we eat gets changed into glucose, which is used by all our cells for energy. More specifically, it’s utilized by the mitochondria in each cell. These tiny creatures have their own life cycles and live inside us in a symbiotic way. It has even been suggested that perhaps they came to Earth separately, inside cracks in meteorites and comets, invaded animal bodies and eventually established what today is a wonderful symbiotic relationship. We supply them with a warm, safe home and they give us energy. The raw material they use, delivered via our blood, is glucose, whose chemical formula is C6H12O6. Exhalation carbon is taken from that initial “C.” When glucose interacts with the oxygen we inhale, the waste products are water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2). The conclusion, little known by the public, is that… every romantic sigh that escapes our lips has a sweet origin. – Bob Berman

2008, has been spending most of this year promoting the addition of Wreaths across America to the New Paltz Rural Cemetery. Not only does she want to honor the war dead, some of whose graves lack bronze markers, but also to raise awareness among Ulster County veterans that they are entitled to interment there free of charge. Of the 7,900+ graves in the New Paltz Rural Cemetery, 835 belong to veterans. “We have 512 wreaths and we need approximately 300 more,” Moloney says. In order to have enough wreaths shipped from Maine in time for Wreath Day, Saturday, December 14, donors are asked to volunteer by Thanksgiving. Sponsoring a wreath costs $15, and it may be designated for the grave of a particular veteran or for general distribution in a particular cemetery. If you want to help out in New Paltz, use the URL address https://bit.ly/2WpoXHX to make your pledge. Donations by check can be mailed to Wreaths Across America, PO Box 249, Columbia Falls, ME 04623, with NYNPRC/ NY0270 written on the memo line.

20th-Century Glass, Pottery & Vintage Accessories Show in Red Hook on Nov. 9-10 The Wreaths across America project began in 1992, when the Worcester Wreath Company in Harrington, Maine found itself with a surplus of 5,000 balsam fir Christmas wreaths. Owner Morrill Worcester, whose visit as a 12-year-old to Arlington National Cemetery had made a deep impression, decided to donate the extra wreaths to a neglected older section of the cemetery. The project grew slowly until 2005, when a photo of the stones at Arlington, adorned with snow-covered wreaths, went viral on the Internet, and suddenly cemeteries across the nation wanted to get involved. Nowadays more than 226,000 wreaths are laid each December at Arlington alone, and 1,640 locations participate annually. For the New Paltz Rural Cemetery, “This is the first year,” says Geraldine Moloney.

ART

Fran Sutherland exhibition opens November 3 at Unison

nison Arts in New Paltz present an exhibit of new paintings by Fran Sutherland, with a wine-and-cheese reception on Sunday, November 3. Titled “Constant Change,” the collection of paintings focuses on bridge imagery. “Bridge structures are a symbolic subject for transitions and survival,” said the longtime area resident and influential art teacher. “This idea has become the focus of my artwork. While traveling internationally, my painting and drawing diary has always included bridges. This fascination began as a child when I rode with my grandparents over the Catskill bridge to their summer retreat, and later crossed over the Tappan Zee at age 17 to attend New Paltz college. The focus of my paintings and artworks has been the Hudson River Valley bridges where I have lived most of my adult life.” Recent awards include First Place (2018), Third Place (2016) and Honorable Mentions (2012 and 2010) at the Pima County Performing Arts Center, as well as an Honorable Mention (2012) at the Woodstock Artists Association & Museum. Sutherland’s work appeared recently in a juried show at the Barrett Art Center in Poughkeepsie (2018). “Constant Change” remains on display until December 21. Fran Sutherland’s “Constant Change” opening, Sunday, Nov. 3, 4-6 p.m., Free, Unison Arts Center, 68 Mountain Rest Rd., New Paltz, www.unisonarts.org

The project will require public acquisition of property. This public hearing is being held to comply with the requirements of the Federal Highway Administration and Sections 201 and 202 of the EDPL. Ulster County will attempt to acquire necessary property through offers of Fair Market Value. However, based upon a title search, it is anticipated that acquisition of property by Eminent Domain will be necessary to complete the project. Any property owners who may subsequently wish to challenge the condemnation of their property by judicial review may do so only on the basis of issues, facts, and objections raised at the hearing. Further information on the project may be obtained by contacting Christopher White, Deputy Director of the Ulster County Planning Department, with offices at 244 Fair Street, Kingston, NY 12401 or (845) 340-3338. Please advise this office no later than November 7, 2019 if a sign language interpreter, assistive listening system or any other accommodation will be required to facilitate your participation in the public hearing.

PRAYER TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN. (Never known to fail.) Oh, most beautiful flower of Mt. Carmel, fruitful vine splendor of Heaven, Blessed Mother of the Son of God. Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity. Oh, Star of the Sea, help me and show me herein you are my mother. Oh, Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth! I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succor me in this necessity. There are none that can withstand your power. Oh, show me herein you are my mother. Oh Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee (3x). Holy Mother, I place this cause in your hands (3x). Holy Spirit, you who solve all problems, light all roads so that I can attain my goal. You who gave me the divine gift to forgive and forget all evil against me and that in all instances in my life you are with me, I want in this short prayer to thank-you for all things as you confirm once again that I never want to be separated from you in eternal glory. Thank-you for your mercy towards me and mine. The person must say this prayer 3 consecutive days, the request will be granted. This prayer must be published after the favor is granted.
