TAYLOR AND NATE HAVE GONE AND DONE IT; they’ve booked a name so big – in my musical universe at least – that it shook my boots

Secret sounds Jolie Holland plays Tin Roof Sessions in New Paltz on Sunday

F

rom the beginning, Tin Roof Sessions in New Paltz have brought in some surprisingly big names, given the dollhouse dimensions of the lovely, converted-garage performance space.

They’ve booked a slew of bands and songwriters with…you know, an awful lot more Facebook “likes” than your band or mine. The outsize talent is due in part to Nate Krenkel’s music-world connections via the New Paltz-headquartered Team Love Records, the cottage label that he co-owns with his pal Connor Oberst of Bright Eyes, and in part because Krenkel, Taylor Davis and Dave Chapman really have their act together in the way that they envision and frame these heightened Sunday-evening shows.

Consider the added value that they offer artists: multi-camera video shoots in a boutique listening-room environment, pro photography sessions out back and live recordings that might turn out to be release-grade (at least if you are). No cash guarantee, usually, but it’s the new, crowdsourced music businesses model. If you provide an audience with an intense and immediate musical experience – like, say, a Victorian parlor recital by a famous Russian husband-and-wife pianist-andsoprano duo – the people will respond in kind and give freely, as if they were Victorian Industrialist patrons, of their own volition, cognizant that they are not only enjoying some nice music but also preserving a certain class of performance quality and intimacy, protecting an Old

World experience against the rising tide of Beatz and such (from which, no doubt, many make their fortunes). Shame about what they’re doing to the North Country, of course, but there will be no stopping progress.

All of which is to say that it would be hard for Tin Roof to surprise me with namevalue any more. We’re over that. We understand that we live somewhere that people want to be and want to play now, and that our local talent pool is hardly overmatched, that it is fully up to these Tin Roof pairings, which are billed as 1 and 1A shows by design, not opener/headliner.

The Tin Roof genius is putting on shows where audiences of 25 or 30 feel like a lot (cap is about 40 in good weather). Lord knows it is hard for anyone to draw more than 25 or 30 people around here, even though, on the purely musical level, our organic scene has never been better than it is right now; in fact it has never really even been close.

But now Taylor and Nate have gone and done it; they’ve booked a name so big – in my musical universe at least – that it shook

my boots, a next-level thing: the brilliant pan-Americana (for lack of a better term) singer/songwriter Jolie Holland.

Holland has one of those voices so distinct, tactile and mouthy that it kind of changes your resting musculature when you hear it. Your mouth contorts involuntarily, and you begin to sing that sound back at her (this is why I should probably consider not attending her Tin Roof Session). She sounds, in a way, like someone who was kicked in the head by a horse long ago and has miraculously learned to sing through the damage. The thought that it might be an affectation has never even entered my mind.

The Texas native crept onto the radar as a founding member of the all-female Vancouver folk group the Be Good Tanyas.

She left that group early in its run to begin a Tom Waits-endorsed solo career (Waits does not endorse lightly) that has finally, with 2014’s stunning Wine Dark Sea, arrived at the core of the Waitsian avant-roots mystery. This raw, rich and tumultuous record features as many as three Mark Ribot impersonators on single tracks, some squalling feedback, some dwelling on tremolo, some grinding the tube-amp-saturated dissonance. It works like a charm, but only because Holland is about as inspired a haunted-roots songwriter as we have.

If you don’t dig the dark arts of pure disturbance and spirit-conjuring, start with any of her other five albums (there are no flies on 2011’s wonderful Pint of Blood); but, when you’re ready for rapprochement, Wine Dark Sea utterly earns the Hellenic trope of its title: It is wild, epic and war-torn, inhabited by gods and pretty close to the source.

Tin Roof Sessions come with a catch, one little extra layer of mystery: I cannot tell you where they happen. You have to go to www.tinroofsessions.com and RSVP to get your instructions. I can tell you that Paul Schembi and Kelly Richmond’s terrific Curbside Cuisine food truck will be on hand. In a rare exception to the Tin Roof rule, the Jolie Holland show, which

Basinski headlines Olana’s Groundswell

T

he paths of Olana will pulsate with music on Saturday when the Groundswell festival returns to the State Historic Site. Groundswell was conceived in 2013 by Paul Miller, a trip-hop musician going by the name DJ Spooky, as a fundraiser for the site. The 2014 edition of this award-winning exhibition event will also benefit local community radio station and arts organization Wave Farm WGXC 90.7-FM, based out of Acra and Hudson. This year’s Groundswell will feature multimedia installations from artist Kenseth Armstead as well as other experimental music performances. The installations and performances are set at various points along JAMES ELAINE Olana’s Ridge Road.

Composer William Basinski Composer William Basinski is the most prominent of the musicians involved. Most widely known for his Disintegration Loops, a series of tape loops that, as the title implies, physically disintegrated as they were transferred to digital sources, Basinski makes “durational music,” stretching simple ideas out to great lengths in order to extract deeper meaning from them. He will bring his tape decks and laptop from his home in California for this special event, as well as a later performance at the Second Ward Foundation in Hudson on Sunday.

The piece that he will likely perform, Cascadia, can change significantly according to where Basinski is performing it. The version at Olana, he said, will take advantage of the wide-open space of Frederic Church’s property. Other artists involved at Groundswell include percussion project Man Forever, sound artist Michael Garofalo and “mixed-media technology artist” Steve Bull.

Groundswell is unofficially linked with other concerts for a packed weekend of events in Hudson. The Basilica Soundscape festival will run from Friday, September 12 to Sunday the 14th, with performances from Swans, Tim Hecker, Julia Holter and Arcade Fire’s Richard Reed Parry. 440 Hz is a $15 suggesteddonation event at 7 p.m. Sunday, headlined by Basinski in Second Ward’s newly renovated auditorium. Basinski seems as excited as anyone for these events, and plans to attend Soundscape on at least one of the nights. “Lots of great music this weekend,” he said.

The handwriting on the wall Kingston’s Trolley Museum hosts subway-car graffiti art competition

I

n the beginning, there was no distinction between graffiti and “real art.” So far as we know, a handprint silhouetted on a Neolithic cave wall by blowing red ochre dust against it was the first “tag,” as well as the first stencil art. In ancient Egypt, it was believed that a human soul was indestructible as long as some depiction of the individual was preserved, so by the Pre-Dynastic Period – 5,000 years ago – workers on mining expeditions were inscribing their own names, or those of their bosses or sovereigns, on rocks in the Theban desert.

From the taverns of first-centur y Pompeii to the Mirror Wall of Sigiriya in fifth-century Sri Lanka to Jerusalem’s Holy Sepulchre during the Crusades, from the Hagia Sophia and Newgrange Mound to Tikal and the Oregon Trail, locals and travelers alike have throughout history and across the globe been making their mark, literally, by the creation of graffiti.

Napoleon’s passing armies added 18thcentury postscripts to the relics of 18th-Dynasty Egypt; Michelangelo and Raphael tagged the ruins of Nero’s villa and Lord Byron the Attic Temple of Poseidon.

As the invention of the printing press concentrated the power of information dissemination more than ever in the hands of those wealthy enough to afford one, the poor and powerless took up graffiti as a weapon of political insurgency. But by the late 20th century, writing or drawing on walls was no longer seen as a justifiable act of piety, documentation, protest or art, but more commonly as vandalism. Mayoral campaigns have been built on promises to rid modern cities of the “scourge” of graffiti; British prime minister Tony Blair signed a charter declaring that “Graffiti is not art; it’s crime.” And urban police forces are investing in sophisticated databases to track tags and build cases against specific offenders.

But sometime interesting started happening in the late 1970s and early 1980s: The art world – especially its

downtown-Manhattan cutting edge – started noticing that graffiti could often be beautiful: a poignant and powerful reaction to tough economic times.

Manny Kirchheimer’s groundbreaking, lyrical 1980 documentary Stations of the Elevated (scheduled for wide rerelease this fall) captured astonishing spray-painted artworks on New Yo r k City subway cars, set them to a Charlie Mingus score and contrasted them with the ugliness of commercial advertising. It paved the way for Charlie A h e a r n ’s popular Wild Style in 1983 and the PBS documentary Style Wars in 1984, which between them alerted Middle America to the existence of hip-hop culture, as manifested in rap music and breakdancing as well as graffiti art. Before too long, Keith Haring’s stencils of dancing stick-men and glowing babies were migrating from the subway tunnels to trendy art galleries and collections, and names like Basquiat and Banksy eventually became as famous as those of any other contemporary artist.

Much of the graffiti that one sees around the streets, of course, is perfunctory and ugly and can indeed be categorized as urban blight. The irony is that it’s the very illegality of the act that usually forces graffiti artists to do their work in too much

The art world started noticing that graffiti could often be beautiful: a poignant and powerful reaction to tough economic times.

of a hurry to reach the level of what the average person would call “art.” Some cities have responded to such “vandalism” in a positive way, by designating certain areas as graffiti zones, resulting in the creation of gorgeous murals. And from within the hip-hop culture itself have arisen collectives and not-for-profit organizations and business ventures dedicated to fostering public appreciation of graffiti art and establishing venues where it can unfold at the artists’ leisure, without anyone getting thrown in jail.

One of those entities was a quarterly fan magazine called Mass Appeal dedicated to “celebrating creative instigation.” First published by Patrick Elasik and Adrian Moeller in 1996, it became a popular bellwether for urban cultural trends before folding in 2008. Last year, the rapper Nas invested in the restart of the publication – primarily an online ’zine these days – and founded the Mass Appeal Records label. And now Mass Appeal is bringing some heavy-hitters of graffiti art to a city near you: On Saturday, September 13, at the Trolley Museum of New York in Kingston, the lost art of using the skin of a subway car as a canvas will be revived, as an invited crew of “insanely gifted” practitioners of the artform engages in a live graffiti exhibition and battle. It’s being billed as “The Burning of Kingston” in homage both to local history and to the use of the term “burner” to designate a truly superior work of graffiti art.

The choice of venue for this event seems brilliant. What better site than a cultural institution that still possesses an authentic MTA subway car from the late 20th century? The Trolley Museum

will end up with a great new exhibit commemorating the fleeting florescence of early hip-hop painting on these kinetic canvases, while Kingston street kids with artistic aspirations get to watch masters of the form at work.

Curated by Mass Appeal’s creative director Sacha Jenkins and noted artist/ historian David “Chino” Villorente, the allday event will feature the world-renowned graffiti artists T-Kid, CES, Doves, Ribs, Dero, Bio, Doc TC-5, Revolt, Dmote, Cycle and YES 2. The eight artists participating in the competition will be split into two teams, going head-to-head to create a unique “burner” in five hours, with the winner determined by a peer panel of judges. The event will also feature local vendors, live music and a book-signing by Jenkins and Style Wars producer Henry Chalfant in support of their new book, Training Days: The Subway Artists Then and Now. “The Burning of Kingston” graffiti art event runs from 12 noon to 6 p.m. on Saturday, September 13, and is free and open to the public thanks to sponsorship from Red Bull. The Trolley Museum of New York is located at 89 East Strand in Kingston’s Rondout District.

Finefeathered friends Annie O’Neill retrospective in Stone Ridge

A

nnie O’Neill calls her show at Family Traditions a “mini-retrospective,” implying that the collection of photographic prints, drawings, silkscreens and steel sculptures is but a small sample of the work that she has accomplished in nearly 40 years of making art.

And it doesn’t even include examples of her latest foray into clay – an omission that she says has to do with the economics of pricing pieces for sale in galleries.

Visitors can still get a solid sense of the proliferation and variety of her artistry.

O’Neill’s passion to travel far and wide, and to take in local culture and allow it to influence her – these all make for compositions as varied as life itself. From images resembling cavewall drawings and the layered design technique of Guatemalan reverse appliqué to ones entirely abstract and crisp, almost suggesting a more rigid sensibility, her pieces suggest curiosity and vitality. “My work is more or less homogenous. Everything is related to decoration – details – in the animals, birds or whatever images I’m working on,” she says, indicating the primary thread that’s apparent in the collection as a whole.

“Since I’ve been in the Hudson Valley, I’ve gone through various stages. In 1977, I started drawing. Then I started making these steel pieces,” she says, indicating the freestanding, one-dimensional metal figures cut with oxyacetylene. “I wanted to see what it was like to draw on steel.

These are less complicated pieces than I was originally doing, which were largescale birds with maybe a thousand cuts in each piece.”

O’Neill studied silkscreening at the Women’s Studio Workshop, where she produced work on both fabric and paper. “Now I’m back to working in clay and a little bit of steel. Thematically, all my work has to do with overdecorating, which is influenced by Mexican folk art: the playfulness and color.” She comments how the clay work – irregular platters and vessels carved and painted with animals and male figures – is similar to

ANNIE O’NEILL

the steel sculpture, where cuts into the material bring shapes and forms to life in silhouette.

There are no women in the artist’s sculptural images.

When asked what that was about, she says, “You’ll have to see my nonexistent p s y c h i a t r i s t .”

She laughs and says that she doesn’t probe the reasoning behind what comes from her psyche.

“I choose animals that have a lot of texture. I’ve always been fascinated with how many feathers a bird has, or how many petals a rose has, or scales on a fish. There’s something very elemental about cave drawings, and also old paintings on ruins.

But I don’t think about all that when I’m working. I’m just doing what comes out.

When I decorate a clay piece, for example – I’m not a musician, but it almost feels like playing music. You can’t stop with one or two brushstrokes. You move from side to side, and it feels like I’m playing some instrument.”

As an artist, O’Neill thinks about art all the time, noticing how colors relate, how figures become energized and transformed in the very process of depicting them. She

doesn’t title her pieces, preferring not to suggest exactly what a viewer should think about when contemplating the work.

In her photography, she looks for surreal details, attempting to mix elements of design with figural images, and doing so without the technical magic of Photoshop or any other digital program. “These are straighton images. I don’t believe in manipulating any of my photographs.”

“Most artists are just building on other artforms. Sometimes I think, ‘What’s original?’ But to me it doesn’t really matter. It’s just your take on particular imagery. There is usually a lot going on in each of my pieces.”

O’Neill shares the gallery space at Family Traditions with painter Joe Reilly, a Stone Ridge artist whose unique art books and boxes are regularly featured there. His quiet paintings represent what he sees around him: beautiful renderings of a seemingly peaceful life.

“The Luminous Landscape” at Shahinian in Rhinebeck Veteran area gallerist Albert Shahinian’s annual showcase of the nation’s top landscape artists, “The Luminous Landscape,” launches for a long run into early November in Rhinebeck on Saturday, September 13.

The show is augmented by works from several of the region’s top inheritors of what was first started years ago with the work of Kingston’s John Vanderlyn, then made legendary by the various artists of the much-heralded Hudson River School of Painters.

Shahinian’s Luminous Landscape invitational was designed by its curator “to promote a broader and deeper understanding of – and appreciation for – contemporary landscape painting” by stretching the normal expectations just enough to help free the alwayspopular genre “from literalist notions and historical constraints and stereotypes

that may keep artists shackled to staid and tired aesthetics or expected stylistic approaches.” Over 40 artists from across the nation have participated over the exhibit’s 17 years to date.

Shahinian will also be showing several veterans of the invitational throughout the run of “The Luminous Landscape”’s run, including a solo show by James Coe, a master of Impressionist landscapes granted added meaning by his adept play with light and texture in his works, plus Minimalist painters Christie Scheele and Thomas Sarrantonio and Modernist landscape artists Gary Fifer of Vermont, Karl Dempwolf of California and Arnold Levine from this area.

Educated at Harvard as a biologist, Coe later earned a Master’s degree in painting from Parsons the New School for Design, and spent the first years of his career as an ornithological illustrator and field guide author, best known for his 1994 Golden Field Guide to Eastern Birds.

– Paul Smart “Luminist Landscape” opening reception, Saturday, September 13, 5-8 p.m., through November 2, Albert Shahinian Fine Art Upstairs Galleries, 22 East Market Street, Rhinebeck; (845) 8767578, www.shahinianfineart.com.

Zach Gross photo show at Hudson Opera House Zach Gross, the renowned photographer who’ll be on hand for the opening of a new exhibit of his portraits, fashion and landscape work at the Hudson Opera House on Saturday evening, September 13, has an adept eye that looks utterly eclectic at first, given the quietness of his landscapes and edgy nature of his portraiture.

But then one hears what he had to say about shooting dance for The New Yorker, and an underlying aesthetic comes to the surface.

“I have a lot of interest in an individual’s movements, physically and mentally, in all forms of creativity,” he said. “I’m interested in freedom, and the movement that transitions past structure into new evolved ones. Dance is inspirational for opening new and deeper ways of understanding.”

He captures a sense of upstate winterscapes that matches the lonely moodiness of the sea as a ship sets sail or emerges from it. He captures the shyness in a hip-hop sort’s hide-and-seek with his camera. He’s always there, getting the reality – and underlying lyricism – of what he’s witnessing.

EXHIBITION

Unburied treasure Largest-ever exhibit of art from Historical Society of Woodstock collection at Woodstock School of Art

O

ne of the great paradoxes and frustrations of a career in museum curation is often the fact that the space available for exhibition is grossly inadequate to display an ever-growing collection. Many such institutions try to think up new ways to organize, categorize and interpret segments of their holdings, so that a different slice is always on public view. Others send thematically related groupings of items from their collections on the road, so that somebody at least will get to see them. But all too often, the majority of a museum’s long-accumulated raison d’etre lurks below the surface.

How often we hear these days of some treasure recently unearthed by an old museum employee with a long memory or a curious young intern with an assignment to catalogue the contents of boxes, drawers and cabinets that haven’t been opened in years. Sometimes society even learns something important in the process that forces us to reorganize our mental picture of the past in a good, stretchy way, like when diligent burrowing in the collections of Historic Huguenot Street in New Paltz over the past decade turned up evidence of the key role played by African slaves in the settlement and prosperity of that town.

The people at the Historical Society of Woodstock seem to know what they’ve got; and in a town whose history has been bound up in its redefinition as a refuge for artists, that hoard of artifacts of historical interest overlaps a great deal with the purview of art museums. The fact that a particular school or style of art has currently gone out of fashion will not deter a historical society’s interest in acquiring artworks for purely documentary purposes, to the great benefit of future generations when that particular period in art history is eventually seen as valuable once again. To cite the most obvious example in our part of the world, it was not so long ago that – incredible as it seems now – sublime works by artists of the Hudson River School could be had for shamefully low prices at garage sales, just because the trendy art world had deemed Luminist landscapes stuffy, academic and irrelevant.

So let us be thankful to these guardians of a community’s collective memory, and applaud the collaboration currently going on between the Historical Society of Woodstock, which owns a lot of artworks from the days of the town’s second wave of “colonization,” and the Woodstock School of Art, which has a fine gallery space in which to display some of those holdings. A new exhibition of 20th-century paintings, “Seldom Seen: Works from the Collection of the Historical Society of Woodstock,” will open there on Saturday, September 13. It marks the first time that a comprehensive survey of the art from the collection has been shown in a large venue.

Thanks to some grant money from the New York State Council of the Arts and Ulster County’s Cultural Services and Promotion Fund, administered by Arts MidHudson, the two local institutions were able to bring in a distinguished outside curator to view the Historical Society’s permanent collection with a fresh eye and select what would go on display. Among many other laurels, Susana Torruella Leval wore the title of director of El Museo del Barrio for eight years and served a term as president of the Association of Art Museum Directors. She is currently a board member of both the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the national Institute of Museum and Library Services.

“The artists did change Woodstock,” writes Torruella Leval in the exhibition catalogue, and documented its transformation even as they influenced it forever.

“Artists traversed Woodstock’s surrounding landscape in all seasons, lovingly recording the gentle Catskills, lush meadows, winding streams, twisting roads named after neighbors, barns and farms now gone. They documented their beloved village with now-quaint views of the Dutch Reformed Church, the post office, the Trading Post, Henry Peper’s forge, the firehouse, the restaurant on the Green, and the stillvital Library Fair. Their fun-loving side created a delightful bestiary: real pets, whimsical creatures, strange birds and carefully observed farm beasts. Finally, the artists looked closely at themselves.”

Thus Landscape, Bestiary and Self-Portrait are the three headings under which the 64 selected works are organized for viewing. Represented are artists long-associated with America’s first artist colony who are known nationally, as well as lesser-known local artists who called Woodstock home. The exhibition includes drawings, paintings and prints by Charles Rosen, Otto Bierhals, Clarence Bolton, John F. Carlson, Marion Bullard, Richard Segalman, Eva Van Rijn, Tor Gudmundsen, Eduardo Chavez, Ernest Fiene, Carolyn Haeberlin and many more.

This collaboration between two important, long-running local institutions with differing missions exemplifies the “combining experience,” the interweaving of old and new values that Woodstock town historian Richard Heppner has pegged as crucial to the formation of the town’s identity: Woodstock’s history, he writes, was “shaped by connections formed between newly arrived artists and those who drew life and livelihoods from the very landscape that would find its way onto a multitude of canvases over the years. As a result, it is a history that has transcended great change while remaining grounded in its original purpose.”

Come see “what the artists saw” when they started arriving here circa 1900. “Seldom Seen: Works from the Collection of the Historical Society of Woodstock” will be on view at the Woodstock School of Art’s Robert H. Angeloch Gallery from September 13 through November 1, with an opening reception from 3 to 5 p.m. this Saturday.

The Woodstock Comedy Festival returns September 19 to 21 for its second year of comedy for a cause, with all profits going to Family of Woodstock and the Polaris Project

You did a political show on Comedy Central, and you talk about why the world’s a mess in Long Story Short. Do you think comedy can change the world?

I don’t know if anything can change the world. Even when you have one place going great, other places are doing horribly. I don’t think it changes; it just packs up and moves every few months.

Does comedy help the world?

In the ideal form, it lets people have a little relief and realize, “Oh, that’s what’s been bothering me all this time, but I couldn’t articulate it.” That’s when it’s done right. A lot of comedy just reinforces your own ignorance.

But at least I’d rather have someone

“Someone should study comedians, find out if it’s ADD or just a shitty attitude” reinforcing my ignorance and being funny than being stupid.

It’s weird how I’ve gotten more and more into the relationship with the audience. At first, I thought, “If it wasn’t for the audience, I’d be so happy.” Now we’re intertwined the way no other performers are; they’re helping me write my material. For a comedian, it’s an important relationship.

aturday Night Live and Comedy Central alumnus Colin Quinn is the headliner for the Woodstock Comedy Festival, returning September 19 to 21 for its second year of comedy for a cause, with all profits going to Family of Woodstock and the Polaris Project, which fights human trafficking.

Following last year’s smashing success, which raised more than $5,000 for the organizations, executive director Chris Collins and his crew have pulled together a combination of edgy young New York City comics, along with seasoned performers like Quinn. Three nights of laughs will include the political humor of Comedy Nation at the Woodstock Playhouse on Friday; Quinn’s Once upon a Time in New York at the Bearsville Theater on Saturday, followed by the Upright Citizens’ Brigade show Whiplash; and Laughingstock! standup, plus Bobby Tisdale and the

Knot Bads, at the Colony Café on Sunday.

Saturday afternoon will feature panel discussions on comedy writing at the Kleinert Center for the Arts. On Sunday afternoon, Upstate Films Woodstock will screen two documentaries: one on professor Irwin Corey and the other taking us backstage at Whiplash.

I watched ten minutes of Long Story Short on YouTube, and it was really funny. What’s your favorite historical period?

I’ve been doing this whole show about the Constitution and kind of liking it, but I don’t like the outfits. In the artwork, it’s kind of dark; in the Colonial period everyone looks dirty to me. The British, with the regimental uniforms – they really had something going, even though it made them lose the war – the red uniforms had a real flair. I also like the Renaissance. But talk about the one percent: the Medicis and the Borgias, who once in a while threw a few crumbs to the artists. They don’t show us that side.

I watched a clip from 1992, and I was amazed at how much better you got since then.

If I could trade the bad comedian I was then for who I am now, with all the insights and stuff, I’d do it in two seconds. I was young, and I looked amazing.

Yeah, you were pretty hot.

I was smoking three packs a day, and I could run four miles a day. I was miserable actually, but...it’s a hard tradeoff.

The show you’re doing at the comedy festival is about New York City?

It’s about growing up in New York, but it’s really about ethnicity – me describing everybody’s ethnicity. We all have the same basic genetic whatever, but we’re all different. It could be construed as racial, but it’s a study.

It’s always bugged me, the more diverse New York gets – there are over 120 languages spoken in Queens – it seems to be like, “Don’t mention anyone’s ethnicity.”

I don’t want to call it a meditation – people will be thinking, “What an ass” – but that’s what I’ll be doing: meditating on ethnicity.

What made you decide to be a comedian?

I was always the class clown, a bigmouth, and got laughs a lot. I don’t know if I was born to do it, or just started getting addicted to it. I was always trying to disrupt class, like everyone who becomes a comedian.

Someone should study comedians, find out if it’s ADD or just a shitty attitude.

First time I went onstage, I felt, “This is where I belong.” A guy came up said, “You’re a natural; come back in a year.” He was right. A lot of people are hilarious, but you also have to have that…I don’t know if it’s the death of the spirit or an existential crisis; you almost have to be unhealthy to want to spend years of your life alone,

HISTORY

PREVIEW SCREENINGS OF LOST RONDOUT: A STORY OF URBAN REMOVAL IN KINGSTON

T

here will be a preview screening of Lost Rondout: A Story of Urban Removal, a film about the 1960s-era urban renewal program in downtown Kingston being developed by Stephen Blauweiss and Lynn Woods, on Saturday, September 20 at the Persen House at 74 John Street in Kingston. Film showings at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. will be followed by a talk with the filmmakers and discussion by participants in the film, including photographer Gene Dauner and historian/archivist Jack Matthews.

In the late 1960s, hundreds of buildings were torn down in Kingston’s downtown Rondout District in a federally funded urban renewal project. Gene Dauner took 900 photographs of the area just before it was destroyed. Based on his slides, other period images and interviews with people who were there, the film seeks to recreate the vanished community as well as celebrate the many historic buildings that were torn down. For more information, e-mail Blauweiss at mail@biggreentv.com.

crafting this stuff. You have to be a little despairing about everything else in life.

Do you ever think, “I wish I’d done something else instead”?

In a fantasy world, maybe, but there was really nothing I could’ve done.

Well, I could’ve done other things for ten years to get more material.

What would you have done?

Maybe – I guess – well, ideally, I would’ve moved to ten cities in the US and taken ten different jobs: Chicago, three Southern cities, three Midwestern cities, one or two in New England, to get the big sweeping picture, to have that authority. I’d be the Walt Whitman of comedy.

What kind of jobs would you get?

I don’t know, I only went to college a year-and-a-half. Whatever jobs would explore what the real culture is: an oil rig in Texas, a cabdriver in Salt Lake City. You know, I told my manager, “This is an ethnic show, it’s specific to the Northeast, so get me something in the Northeast. The next day my agent calls me: “How about Ogden, Utah?” I said, “I think northern Finland would be a better place to work out this material.”

Who are your influences?

Levon Helm. Ha! Just playing to the local crowd. Well, Pryor and Carlin: Those are the Mount Rushmore guys to me. Joan Rivers was really funny, even when she was doing those celebrity jokes, which I don’t care about really, but they were well-written jokes.

She was a craftsperson, she was the real deal, out there being shocking, but also being funny.

Your onstage persona is pretty rough around the edges; how close is that to the real-life you?

I’m not like that at all. I’m a show-

business diva. I have a gravelly voice.

Kris Kristofferson and I could’ve been Rhodes scholars together.

You post a lot on Twitter. Is that fun for you?

It’s so much fun: another addiction.

You laugh so hard. People issue death threats left and right to me. They want to kill me because I’m throwing out these positive affirmations, and it makes them so mad. I’m a combination of a soccer Mom and a life coach.

My fans don’t seem to appreciate that persona.

Have you been to Woodstock before?

I lived in Woodstock in 1970. I went to Woodstock Elementary School for six months. We were going to move out of Brooklyn. We tried it out and moved back. I was a breath away from going to Onteora Middle School.

There was a poster shop on Tinker Street, before they called them head shops. I was 11. I’d buy incense. It was like buying weed: “I’m gonna go smell this incense” – you sense something’s going on. By the creek, pervert that I was, you’d see all these young couples going in the Mill Stream, and they’d be naked. I thought, “This is Utopia, man; I could sit here all day.” I was young; they didn’t care. My sister lived there in the late ’80s; I went back lots of times.

It’s changed a lot since then.

Good thing you warned me.

irrevocably cement the actor’s reputation as a major international star, and not just that kilted sidekick to Mel Gibson in Braveheart or the paranoid dark-wizardhunter Mad-Eye Moody in the Harry Potter flicks. Gleeson is a consummate artist who deserves our serious attention, and after Calvary I have a feeling that he’ll finally get it.

Calvary is a dark, disturbing, powerful work, a contemporary film noir set against the dramatic rural beauty of County Sligo, whose coastline is as crumpled and craggy as its protagonist’s exquisitely expressive face. Gleeson portrays Father James, a good priest enduring bad times for the Catholic Church – a man who received his calling late in life after fathering a daughter, battling the demons of alcoholism and trying to make some sense of his wife’s suicide. He keeps his personal piety fairly private, invoking the name of Christ and the Ten Commandments only once in the story: when he is trying to talk a socially awkward young man (Killian Scott) out of joining the army as an outlet for his repressed rage against women.

But Father James takes his pastoral counseling responsibilities very seriously indeed, laboring thanklessly to alleviate the despair, hostility and alienation felt by

his parishioners at a time when the Irish economy is in a tailspin and revelations of sexual abuse by priests – and subsequent cover-ups by the Church hierarchy – recur with depressing regularity.

It’s an uphill battle that intensifies by several orders of magnitude after an unnamed parishioner tells Father James in the confessional that the priest has one week left to live: The man plans to kill him as a sort of collective revenge against the Church because he was sexually assaulted as a young boy by a priest now d e c e a s e d . We quickly deduce that Father James knows the identity of his would-be hitman (though the audience does not), but he decides not to divulge that information even after being offered dispensation from the usual rules of the confessional by his bishop. Instead he uses what may be his last week on

Earth to give the killer one last shot at self-redemption, to try one more time to untie some of the knots in the lives of his miserable flock and to break down some of the emotional barriers between himself and his daughter Fiona (Kelly Reilly), who has recently made a halfhearted attempt at suicide herself.

His priestly rounds set the stage for a whodunit parade of likely murderer candidates; everyone in the parish has a new gripe or an old grudge, and nearly all seem to have a screw loose. Backing Gleeson is a splendid ensemble of mostly Irish actors playing the sordid assortment with relish and sharp individuality. No one seems to have an intact marriage; when Father James tries to ascertain whether the town butcher (Chris O’Dowd) is responsible for the black eye that his wife (Orla O’Rourke) showed up with in church on Sunday, he quickly ascertains that said wife is openly having an affair with an African immigrant mechanic

SCREEN

It crawled from the VHS vault Found Footage Festival screens weird video gems at Upstate Films Woodstock

I

t’s always instructive to take a mental step back from total immersion in our day-to-day concerns and think about what an anthropologist from another planet or a historian from the future would make of the world as we know it. As the Information Age whizzes by in a blur, like a hokey timelapse-photography montage intended to show the passage of years in some old Hollywood movie, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the ever-erupting mountain of data out there, even as we dream up creative new ways to mine it.

For every home video that goes viral on YouTube, millions more surface and then submerge again, unseen but by a few. Those future historians will not lack for material as they delve through the electronic detritus of the 21st century – though whether it will show us in a favorable light seems as dubious as the question of whether such documentary pursuits will be worth anyone’s time as our planet’s remaining viability ticks away.

And that’s just considering what’s out there on the Internet now; what about all the stuff that people were churning out before it existed? What earnest labors of some inspired or merely dogged mind will be lost to human memory just because hardly any of us owns a VHS player anymore?

Luckily (perhaps), that question has been obsessing two TV comedy writers associated with The Onion and The Late Show with David Letterman since 1991, when they stumbled across a training video titled Inside and Outside Custodial Duties at a McDonald’s in Wisconsin. It was the beginning of Joe Pickett and Nick Prueher’s mind-boggling collection of what they describe as “strange, outrageous and profoundly stupid videos” from the pre-DVD era, and it’s a comfort somehow to know that somebody else is doing this so that we don’t have to.

For ten years now, Pickett and Prueher have been culling the weirdest of their discoveries into a traveling show called the Found Footage Festival, which they describe as “a one-of-a-kind event showcasing videos found at garage sales and thrift stores and in warehouses and dumpsters throughout North America” and “a lively celebration of all things found.” Think of it as the love child of America’s Funniest Home Videos and Phoenicia’s Mystery Spot Antiques.

They will screen a mind-boggling collection of “strange, outrageous and profoundly stupid videos” from the pre-DVD era

(Isaach de Bankolé). The town’s jaded police inspector (Gary Lydon) cannot be consulted privately because his home has been more or less commandeered by a blustering gay prostitute (Owen Sharp, the one weak point in the cast). The local publican (Pat Shortt) is furious because the bank is foreclosing on his mortgage, and the local banker (Dylan Moran) has lost interest in life since his dicey lending practices were exposed.

Then there’s a cynical doctor who’s the town’s cocaine supplier (Aidan Gillen, better-known as the slimy schemer Littlefinger on Game of Thrones) and the psychotic young former parishioner who’s now in prison for serial murder (Gleeson’s son Domhnaill). The only person in the bunch who seems reasonably decent is a frail, elderly American writer (M. Emmet Walsh), and he just wants Father James to procure him a gun so that he can do himself in before he loses his faculties. The parish’s assistant priest (David Wilmot) has, in Father James’s words, “no integrity”

and proves generally useless except in his eagerness to accept donations.

The pastor perceives that all these people need help, and keeps trying to offer it to them even while they make him the scapegoat for their every beef with the Church that has so disappointed them (and in several cases, directly abused them). The butcher’s bored wife finds it amusing to hit on the priest just to make him squirm; the innkeeper wants to know why the Church doesn’t hold predatory bankers to account for their sins. Father James’s personal Calvary is being punished for the sins of the institution that he represents, along with those of his all-too-human charges.

Sounds grim, doesn’t it? But the horrors of human nature revealed as Calvary peels back the quaint and cheery veneer of Irish society are mitigated by a sweet philosophical encounter with a Frenchwoman to whose husband Father James administers last rites after an auto wreck; the widow’s unshaken faith in both

COURTESY OF FOUND FOOTAGE FESTIVAL

Learn how to facelift the natural way in the 1996 video Facercize.

The Found Footage Festival has been featured at the HBO Comedy Festival and the Just for Laughs Festival, on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and National Public Radio, and been named a critic’s pick in The New York Times, Los Angeles Times and The Chicago Tribune. It can also be seen as a twice-weekly Web series on The Onion’s AV Club, in the documentary Winnebago Man and in Pickett and Prueher’s book, VHS: Absurd, Odd and Ridiculous Relics from the Videotape Era. The Found Footage Festival mutates every year as its masterminds expand their collection, but 2014 being its tenth anniversary, some special treats are in store when the road show lands at Upstate Films in Woodstock on Tuesday, September 16.

Among the latest additions are a bizarre exercise video montage, exclusive footage of a fake chef prank that the curators pulled on news stations in the Midwest and newly unearthed footage of what Pickett and Prueher call “the world’s most obnoxious home shopping hosts, John & Johnny,” along with a reunion that they themselves orchestrated. Also included is the full version of an instructional video titled How to Have Cybersex on the Internet from way back in 1997, when presumably even the geekiest wannabe virtual stud still had some protocols to learn.

Leaving aside the question of whether we truly want stuff like this preserved for posterity, showing turn-of-the-millennium culture as it does in such an embarrassing light, one cannot deny that sitting through a couple of hours’ worth of screenings and associated live comedy would provide a happy distraction from worldly cares.

Pickett and Prueher promise “live commentary and where-are-they-now updates on the people in these videotaped obscurities” peppered throughout the evening of choice clips, and the mirth is bound to be contagious in such a public venue. If your spirits are in need of a lift, I recommend the Found Footage Festival as your tonic of the week.

God and humankind shames the priest’s obsession with his own internal crisis. And the movie’s overall dark tone is frequently leavened by the sort of graveyard humor at which the Irish literati have long excelled.

It’s a bitter and ironic sort of laughter, but laugh you will – sometimes loudly.

Calvary begs comparison with another recent movie inspired by the Catholic Church’s social abuses, and at first glance it does seem like Philomena’s grittier flip side.

But though it is less immediately apparent in Calvary, the theme of forgiveness is as intrinsic to its terrible tale as it is to Judi Dench’s somewhat more upbeat vehicle.

You likely won’t see Ireland quite the same way after watching it; but you will see more nuance in the malleable role of the Church, for good or ill, in its rapidly changing society. The character who tells Father James that his kind’s days are done may be right; but the need for good listeners and good counselors will never go away.

Mexico & Central America Independence Day Block Party returns to Midtown Kingston

Vassar Street Brew Fest in Poughkeepsie benefits CunneenHackett Arts Center restoration

L

ast year’s inaugural Midtown Mexico and Central America Independence Day Block Party in Kingston went so well that it’s coming back again on Sunday, September 14. Broadway will be closed between Henry and Cedar Streets from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. for the daylong, into-the-evening celebration of Hispanic culture and cuisine.

The event will have live entertainment on the hour starting at 10 a.m. featuring mariachi, traditional and contemporary Latin music, authentic foods, crafts, kids’ activities, dance performances and even a car show, with more than 100 classic cars slated to be there.

“I was looking for something to bring the community together,” said organizer David Sosa, who owns and operates the Roca Floral shop on Broadway in Kingston. “I always see everybody segregated: Salvadorians congregate in some areas, Ecuadorians in other places and Peruvians, and everything is segregated. I was trying to do something that we all have in common, to come together to celebrate together – not only Spanish people but also black, white, Haitian, everybody that can just come and have fun together.

Sosa, who hails from the Mexican state of Puebla originally and was raised in Mexico City, credited Kingston mayor Shayne Gallo, the Center for Creative Education and the Latino Committee of Kingston with helping him put it all together. He said that the block party is also about letting people know more about the history of Mexican and Central American Independence Day traditions.

Contrary to popular belief, el Cinco de Mayo (the 5th of May) is not the celebration of Mexican independence; it’s actually the

commemoration of a Mexican victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla in 1862.

Mexico celebrates its independence from Spain in 1821 on September 16, following the official day of independence from Spain for the Central American countries of Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua on September 15. Chile celebrates its independence on September 18.

It’s a sobering thought that the advancement of higher education for American women – specifically via the endowment of Vassar College – owes a great deal to the production and purveying of alcoholic beverages, in an era when temperance campaigners and suffragettes marched side-byside. But let’s not overdo the sobering, for, consumed in moderation, beer and ale are among life’s greatest pleasures available to the working class.

And we mid-Hudsonites owe that old brewmeister Matthew Vassar (above) a debt of gratitude, for many reasons.

To celebrate that heritage, as well as to fill the coffers of the Cunneen-Hackett Arts Center Restoration Fund, the grounds of that organization’s historic headquarters at 9 Vassar Street in Poughkeepsie will play host on Saturday afternoon to the Vassar Street Brew Fest.

The tented outdoor festival will feature tastings presented by local brewers along with a commemorative glass, pub grub, live music courtesy of the Hudson Valley Folk Guild, historical exhibits and a print sale.

The Brew Fest runs from 1 to 5 p.m.

All-inclusive tickets cost $35 and can be reserved by calling (845) 486-4571. For more information about the event, visit www.cunneen-hackett.org/brewfest.shtml.

TASTE

What gives beer its bite Dutchess Hops in Lagrangeville hosts Hoptember Harvestfest

L

ate summer/early fall is hop harvest season, and more of us would have known that already back in the 19th century, when New York State was America’s leading producer by far of the essential beer ingredient. Though the prime locus of hops production has since shifted to the Pacific Northwest, today’s burgeoning interest in homebrewing, the trendiness of more intensely hoppy-flavored beers and new laws in New York bolstering farm-based brewing operations have combined to create a favorable climate for the Hudson Valley to become a hotbed of hop farms.

Spearheading that movement is Dutchess Hops, headquartered at Eastern View Nursery in Lagrangeville, which has been planting more acreage in hop vines each year of late. That makes local homebrewers and microbrewers very happy, since they now have easier access to fresh “wet” hops, instead of always having to rely on the dried variety that tends to lose its pungency in transport or storage.

Last year Dutchess Hops toasted its newfound success by hosting the first Hoptember Harvestfest, and the second visitation of this special event will be held on Saturday, September 13. Billed as “a true farm-to-pint experience,” Hoptember will feature at least 25 breweries, distilleries and cideries pouring samples of craft beer, hard cider and spirits in a celebration of all things hoppy. Regionally produced food, including hop-smoked barbecue from Hudson Valley Ribfest winners Bacon Brothers BBQ in Canton and hop-infused nibbles from Tomás Tapas in Wappingers Falls, plus local bands Tall County and Buckeye Rooster, will add to the day’s festivities.

Hoptember Harvestfest runs from 1 to 5 p.m. Admission is limited to adults age 21 and up, by advance sale only, with allinclusive tickets available online for $50 at www.dutchesshops.com. Designated drivers can get in for $25. A pair of VIP tickets to the event – worth $75 each and including early admission at 11:30 a.m. plus other extras – will be awarded in a drawing for visitors to Grand Cru Beer & Cheese Market in Rhinebeck. For more information call (845) 838-6122 or check out Dutchess Hops on Facebook.

Ramble: Gomez Mill House & Staatsburgh The annual Hudson River Valley Ramble continues this weekend, which means extra-special events and activities planned around my favorite 315-mile-long estuary. Two spots that I highly recommend are the Gomez Mill House and the Staatsburgh State Historic Site (Mills Mansion).

What makes the Gomez Mill House so special is that it’s the earliest extant Jewish residence in North America, and its renovations and residents over the years could be considered guideposts of US history. Tours are offered at 10:30 a.m., 1:15 and 2:45 p.m. Then take a picture of the kids on the pretty bridge that crosses over the stream to the mill.

Admission is half-price for anyone

who mentions the Hudson Valley River Ramble. The Gomez Mill House is located at 11 Mill House Road in Marlboro. For more information, call (845) 236-3126 or visit www.gomez.org.

The Staatsburgh State Historic Site (Mills Mansion) offers an inside glimpse into the technical inner workings of the property with an outdoor tour of the grounds called “What You See and What You Don’t See,” offered at 1 p.m. on Sunday, September 14. While you’re there, get an indoor tour of this magnificent house at $8 for adults, $6 for seniors; children under 12 get in free.

The Staatsburgh State Historic Site is located on Old Post Road in Staatsburgh.

Franny Reese State Park Franny Reese State Park is named for one of the Hudson Valley’s longtime nature stewards, Frances (“Franny”) Reese. The park has three trails: white, a 1.76-mile loop; yellow, .87 miles long; and blue, a quarter-mile offshoot of the yellow trail.

The Yellow Trail goes from the Macks Lane parking area to the river, where one

can climb up the steep steps and walk along the Mid-Hudson Bridge pedestrian walkway, or just sit and relax at a picnic table in Johnson-Iorio Park. This is the park that you see every time you get on or off of the bridge on the Highland side.

Cross the bridge, and you can walk to the Poughkeepsie train station or even to the Walkway over the Hudson.

The trails are relatively short, with wider roadlike passages mixed with narrower, more rugged spots, and the views of the bridge are lovely. I think that Franny Reese is a good option for a casual family jaunt or dog walk, and there are no fees to hike here.

Franny Reese State Park is located on Macks Lane in Highland. For more information, visit www.scenichudson.org.

Creek restoration walk & talk in Shandaken Join the Ashokan Watershed Stream Management Program (AWSMP) on a walk down Warner Creek in the Town of Shandaken on Sunday, September 14 from 10 a.m. to 12 noon as part of the Ulster County Creek Week festivities. New York City Department of Environmental Protection geologist Danyelle Davis will lead the interpretive walk along the stream corridor.

At the end of Silver Hollow Road in Shandaken, participants will examine a wild, unmanaged section of the creek.

Participants will learn about stream channel dimensions, stream types and the role of geology and vegetation in shaping the stream. After a short walk downstream, the group will see how a private landowner addressed stream erosion.

The second location is a short drive down Silver Hollow Road to the site of a major stream restoration project completed by AWSMP in 2013. The project demonstrates science-based stream restoration practices used by AWSMP and other leaders in the field of stream restoration.

The walk is limited to 25 participants.

NYSCA announces November arts grant proposal deadline The New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) is making available project grants, school residencies and individual artist grants for artists working in all artistic disciplines in Dutchess, Orange and Ulster Coun-

ties. The deadline to apply is November 13.

Project grants support communitybased arts and cultural activities of nonprofit groups, organizations and individual artists throughout Dutchess, Orange and Ulster Counties. Eligible projects include professional and community arts activities benefiting the general public in theater, dance, music, film, video, literature, visual arts, traditional arts, historical and cultural activities, as well as the use of libraries and museums as venues for the arts.

Project grant programs are designed to serve all ages and ethnically diverse populations from all geographic areas in each county. Projects can be in any artistic discipline and may include (but are not limited to) workshops, exhibitions or studio tours, performances, community music festivals, multi-discipline collaborations and public programming where the central focus is the arts. The maximum funding request is $5,000.

The individual artist commission program provides support in the amount of $2,500 directly to selected individual artists for the creation of new work in a community setting. Projects must be initiated by the artist, and reflect local community life or culture, as well as directly involve the community in the artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s creative process.

Artist-in-residence/public schools grants support residencies by artists and/or cultural organizations in a public school classroom (K-12) that focuses on sequential, skill-based knowledge.

All artistic disciplines are eligible, and artist/cultural organization will apply

directly for the grant, in partnership with a Dutchess, Orange or Ulster public school. Eligible projects must focus on the exploration of art and the artistic process. Intercurricular collaboration is encouraged.

These awards are made possible with

21 funds from the Decentralization Program, a regrant program of the New York State Council on the Arts, with the support of governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature and administered

by Arts Mid-Hudson. For information, visit www.artsmidhudson.org.

The show begins promptly at 7:30 p.m., with the doors opening at 7. Admission costs $20 at the door or $17 with RSVP to flyingcatmusic@gmail.com or by calling (845) 688-9453.

Still, a comparison between Joseph and Springsteen is more than superficial.

In fact, Martynâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most recent CD, Tires Rushing by in the Rain, is a 17-song compilation of acoustic versions of Bruce Springsteen songs.

In an interview with the South Wales Argus, Joseph describes how that came about: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always done a couple of his

NIGHT SKY

Neptune It’s more interesting than you think

N

eptune – which these weeks lies at its brightest and closest of the year – is an amazing place. Give me a chance to prove it.

Neptune is an enormous blue ball 58 times larger than Earth by volume.

The only planet that cannot be seen with the naked eye, it lurks among the sprawling hallucinogenic pattern that is Aquarius. It’s highest at midnight, halfway up the southern sky. But we really should start this story at the beginning.

In 1845, the French astronomer Urbain Le Verrier realized that Uranus, discovered 60 years earlier, was not moving in a normal way. Something was mysteriously tugging at it. He calculated where this putative new giant planet should be located and tried to get some astronomer to point a telescope at the spot. No one was interested. Meanwhile, in England, John Couch Adams had the same idea and was meeting with similar indifference.

What finally happened was that Le Verrier convinced someone at the Berlin observatory to point its small nine-inch telescope at his calculated position. Bingo: Within one hour, Neptune was found within a single degree of the predicted spot. That was on September 23, 1846.

Naturally, a huge fight over discovery rights erupted between France and England.

To this day, credit is usually shared. In truth, the Frenchman was more accurate. But he had such an annoying personality – Le Verrier wanted the new planet named after himself – that even his fellow Frenchmen backed off and ultimately agreed to the jointdiscovery idea. Fortunately, the world quickly agreed to follow the tradition of naming planets for Roman deities, and chose the god of the sea.

A mere 17 days after Neptune’s discovery, an enormous moon fully two-thirds the size of ours was seen orbiting it. For nearly a century, everyone simply (and strangely) called it “Neptune’s moon.” Then, in the mid-1930s people instead referred to it as Triton. In 1949, a second satellite was found – a tiny one, just one-tenth our own Moon’s size – and it was named Nereid, following the rule that everything Neptunian must have a sea-deity nomenclature. Then in 1981 and 1989 came Larissa and then Proteus, first seen by the Voyager 2 spacecraft. The Hubble Telescope eventually found others, and just last year the most recent discovery brought the number to 14.

That’s not so interesting. But this is: These moons are bizarre. Triton is the only major moon that orbits its planet in the wrong direction: backwards. Nor does it circle Neptune’s Equator. These oddities prove that it was a traveling vagabond captured by Neptune’s gravity – except that such captured moons have elliptical orbits, and Triton moves in a perfect circle. Curiouser and curiouser.

By contrast, Nereid has an astonishingly squashed elliptical orbit that brings it seven times closer to Neptune on some occasions than others. Imagine if our own Moon sometimes grew seven times larger in our sky.

Neptune’s newer, most distant moons are also weird, because two of them orbit at the

songs in gigs. People said, ‘We’d like to have recordings of these,’ but I was always a bit shy, because it’s sort of hallowed turf. Then a couple of years ago at a radio station in New York, I met a guy called Dave Marsh... Dave has written biographies on Bruce, and he suggested that if the covers were well-thought-out, he would write the sleeve notes. I thought maybe I should take the risk; I recorded the 17 songs in three days last summer.”

Reviews have been overwhelmingly positive. Folkwords.com cuts to the chase, saying, “Should you decide to cover beloved songs by iconic singers, people will soon let you know if you’ve got it right or wrong – with his latest album, Tires Rushing by in the Rain, Martyn Joseph has it spot-on.”

Those who are already familiar with Joseph’s own songs have always heard a strong thread of social consciousness, empathy and compassion running through them, which reflects the singer’s lifelong strong commitment to causes that he believes in. In the past, Joseph has focused attention on trade justice, Third World debt cancellation and human rights; and he was awarded an Amnesty International accolade for his work with the Brazilian Landless Workers’ Association Movement.

In the last year, Joseph launched a new ongoing project called Let Yourself Trust, described as a non-profit organization that “aims to make a small difference out of

great love and commitment by challenging injustice wherever it’s found, educating via advocacy, campaigning for human rights and raising issues that have been forgotten or ignored via fundraising initiatives, thus bringing about greater awareness for beautiful people in powerless situations... without being held hostage to a particular ideology – only one of change and hope.”

The first two projects backed by Let Yourself Trust are the Alrowwad Theatre in Bethlehem, described as “an amazing outlet of expression and creativity for children who know only oppression, heat and concrete,” and Project Somos, which is building a village to provide “a secure home, a loving family and a hopeful future to Guatemalan children and at-risk mothers in need.”

Joseph raises money for these efforts by, among other things, using his own record company to issue special CDs, the proceeds from which benefit the Trust and its ongoing work. You can learn more about Let Yourself Trust by going to its website at www.letyourself.net or, better still, ask him about it in person when he comes to the Empire State Railway Museum this Saturday night.

Neptune on Triton’s horizon

astonishing distance of 30 million miles: by far the most distant satellites from their parent planet in the known universe. That’s farther away from Neptune than Venus is from us. It’s hard to imagine such moons being gravitationally connected to Neptune in a stable way, as they take 26 years to make a single orbit – as compared to four weeks for our own Moon, and a few days apiece for the giant moons of Jupiter.

Neptune has its own peculiarities. Its deep blue color is a mystery. The known presence of natural gas ought to make it greenish-blue like Uranus, so some odd unknown substance must lurk in its atmosphere. Its very round orbit seems to be periodically invaded and crossed by Pluto’s highly elliptical path, when the two orbits are depicted on a chalkboard. But seen in three dimensions, Pluto’s path is so highly tilted that it actually ventures nearer to Uranus than it ever comes to Neptune.

So Neptune is a loner. The farthest planet (after Pluto’s demotion), it’s so distant that it only appears the size of a quarter-dollar coin held up by someone a mile away. Taking 165 years to orbit the Sun and with seasons that each last 41 years, and with winds that blow five times faster than tornadoes, it is an odd place. It is fortunate indeed that the plucky Voyager, operating on a finicky backup radio, spent a day there on August 25, 1989, delivering our only decent look at Neptune and strange Triton, whose surface, the coldest place in the solar system, resembles a cantaloupe.

No further missions to their vicinity are on the drawing boards.

The Rolling Stones had the famous song, “You can’t always get what you want,” and I think that is basically a true statement. I also think that it depends on many factors. The biggest factor is how you try and who you ask for help. Believe it or not I thought about this after watching a cat food commercial for Fancyfeast, where the delectable food was served in a small crystal goblet. Frankly, I’ll bet that cat would much rather has some stinky mouse-flavor meat that would gross us out. When it comes to real estate, Win Morrison Realty knows how to find the right property, so as the Stones put it, “But if you try sometimes well you might find, you get what you need.”

DEAR BUSINESSMAN/WOMAN- We at Hardscrabble Flea Market & Swap Meet would like to congratulate you on being picked from over 100 businesses in your field.

We believe we can help each other- We have a swap meet every Sunday, 8 a.m.-4 p.m. at Holy Cow Shopping Center, in addition to a flea market/garage sale. We find that when business people set up a table w/business cards & flyers or “show how to do” projects it will definitely increase your business (and mine). It’s a great way to introduce your business to new/old customers. And, if you have leftover merchandise you’d like to sell- this would be a perfect way to unload it. Please give John a call for more details- (845)7581170. Spots are $12-$35.

“A family festival to promote and celebrate agriculture in the Hudson Valley and to raise funds for two of Ulster County’s leading not-for-profit agencies.”

FOR ADOPTION: VINNIE is, quite frankly, one of the cutest & most resilient kittens you could ever hope to meet. He was found alone on the street when he was only a few weeks old. He was flea infested w/much of his fur missing. But voila! The kindness of a stranger caring for him, giving him the highest quality food, love & veterinary care & we have THE NEW VINNIE! About 8-weeks old, no more fleas, his long orange & white fur is growing back beautifully & his furry tail is becoming fuller every day. He’s been living w/his adoring foster mom for 6 weeks & is now ready for his forever home. He’s up to date w/vaccinations, has been health checked & is litter pan trained. If you’re ready to continue giving him the kindness & love which every animal deserves, please contact Nicoleganas@ gmail.com or call (845)684-5444.

S

tarted in 2012 as a joint effort between Cornell Cooperative Extension and Family of Woodstock to raise funds, this familyfriendly event features a showcase of the local harvest. There will be an array of great food, over 40 bands, a classic car show, educational demos and classes, fun activities for kids and much more!

Who has GUINEA PIGS?? The ULSTER COUNTY SPCA does!! HARMONY & PRECIOUS are very sweet guinea pigs.

They’re low maintenance, full of funny squeaks & noises, great for kids. Good for homes where dog/cat allergies are an issue.

If you’d like the company of a PARAKEET, we have one just for you!! We also have A NEW BUNNY! HONEY BUNNY is the newest addition to our group of fun rabbits.

A young fluffy female w/light brown markings; she’s shy but oh so sweet. Of course we have DOGS! Our newest arrivals is Benji. who’s a very shy 14-year old Lhasa Apso.

Who wouldn’t be shy? 14-years old and being put in a shelter. If you’d like to foster Benji, that would be great too. TROOPER; 2-year old mixed breed, high energy and full of love to give; a great jogging companion. YANNI & SADIE; 2 cute adult Shepherd mixes.

These siblings have been together since they were little pups so they’d like to be adopted together. They love to run around & take nice long naps afterwards. Prefer a house w/ no other animals. BRIGGS & SHEBA are also here waiting for just the right families to take them to loving homes. And last but absolutely, not least, these are some of our glorious CATS. SANCHO; White & black male, neutered, very friendly, loves to find a bed and sleep the day away. TORO; Black & white neutered male kitty w/a lion haircut.

Friendly enough to earn the title of lobby cat, Toro has been greeting visitors at the shelter for some time. SADE; adorable grey tabby kitten who has a neurological condition which makes her a bit clumsy (aren’t we all?), but she’s happy, healthy & involves no

more care than any other wonderful kitty.

She’s ready to go to a loving home today.

She’s not a climber except to climb into your heart. Goosfrahbah; (Yes, Goosfrahbah!) is a big boy who’s as sweet as he is handsome.

He is white w/beautiful tabby markings.

AUSTIN; Another cat friendly enough to roam the lobby & mingle w/the public. He’s affectionately referred to around these parts as the “lobby otter” for his outgoing personality & striking resemblance to an otter.

He’s an older gentleman, neutered & great w/other cats. In case you were wondering, VICTORIA, RAVEN & HAMMERJAW are still looking for loving & caring homes.

So come see us and all of our other friends at the ULSTER COUNTY SPCA, 20 Wiedy Road, Kingston (just off the traffic circle).

Open 6 days a week, 11:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m.

(Closed Mondays.) (845)331-5377.
