Early New York punk: It’s non-trendy and there’s no need for a turntable to make it sound good. There’s heart behind it, which makes it a more pure version of music. — Greg Jones Manager, Sound Barrier Rutland Old soul music that says “let’s go out and have a great time.” These people focus on innovation in creativity and just plain having fun. Who needs abdom­ inal exercises when you have Otis Redding? — Susan Norton Music Lover-Seller, Pure Pop Burlington In some of our hearts, Neil Diamond IS a kind of music. Who else can ease you into comfort after you’ve just been beat up, dumped, made fun of, harassed, spit on, talked down to or looked at funny? NEIL CAN! Let him rock you. — Jordan Silverman Freelance Photographer, Burlington

This letter is in response to Mark Szymanski and Ruth Holleran [“Weekly Mail,” September 26]. First, Ms. Holleran, when Jesus was suppos­ edly hanging on the cross, he did­ n’t tell the thieves on either side of him that they did not deserve the punishment they were suffering. Enough said. Next. Terrorists and their sup­ porters are only interested in killing us — not negotiating. That is obvious from the way they used their hostages. They were used to murder thousands more innocents. To have peace, both sides must forego violence between them­ selves. Terrorists have been murdering Americans in the dozens, hundreds and now the thousands — a poor return seeing that Afghan-istan alone has received billions in aid from the “Great Satan” in the past. Some people seem to think that because the U.S. is the most powerful nation in the world, it follows that we are the most evil or most abusive. They are wrong. The reasons nations get billions in aid from us is that America is aware that it is the crown jewel of the Earth and we wish to share our blessings. We aren’t perfect — but we sure aren’t evil. We weren’t

obligated to give them a penny! The U.S. is justified in fighting back against the terrorists and their supporters. We live in a veritable “paradise” compared to the self-inflicted ruins and rubble they call home. They would have us reduced, down to a large Beirut. I say “Never!” To arms! To arms! Destroy the murderers of the innocent. Destroy the blasphemers of Allah’s will. —- Randall Roberts Burlington

Now, I’m a firm believer that there is nothing in this world b y d u & P quite as subjec­ tive as art, which, like the no, bur A*y d*y wow! j other thing, is in the eye of the beholder. So why not just come right out and say, “Hey, Steve, your stuff sucks and we wouldn’t print that crap if you were the last artist in the world”? That I can live with. But to tell me that the images I sent to you were inapproprate after this is, well, like John Vernon’s du&N<vP.cow character says in the Outlaw Jose)’ lem until now.

The gas is piped from the chamber to an electric generator, where it is burned, producing a constant flow of 750 kilowatts of electricity, enough to power 250 houses. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported that farmer Carl Theunis uses solid and liquid by­ products of the process as pathogen-free fertilizer and expects to add treatment facilities to clarify the liquid by-product for reuse as water.

After his discharge from the Army, Edwin V. Gaynor, 21, went to Baltimore’s police head­ quarters to fill out an application to join the force.

A PRICKLY MEMORY

hand came up on the cor­ ner of Church and Main streets, and I quickly shot I over to secure the fare. No fool­ ing around these days. It’s been slim pickings for us Burlington cabbies since the ter* rorist attacks last month. Fewer | regulars and far fewer tourists arcpartaking in the local nightlife. § Worse than that, at least for an :j: independent driver like me who concentrates on downtown busi1 ness, is the flood of airport-based .. cabbies. Like bears forced into £ the city when the rural food | source dwindles, the airport cabbies 1 are starving from lack of sky travel:f; ers. 1 know most of ! these guys, and I sympathize with I their plight. But as § a consequence of their situation, I’m I feeling the pinch. The man who hailed me was holding hands with, presumably, a £ wife or girlfriend. With his free hand, he opened the I front door and asked, “Can you £ take us to the : Ethan Allen Motel?’’ I. It always surprises i me a little when people ask this : type of question instead df just 1 getting into the cab. I suppose ... they’re being polite, like when ,! you ask the general store guy, % “Would you get me a pack of Marlboros?” What’s he going to | answer, “No, I don’t think so”? “Yup,” 1 replied. “That’s pret­ ty much what I do for a living. If I it’s connected via land mass to Burlington, Vermont, I’m the .« right guy to take you there.” Am 1 droll or obnoxious? It’s a fine line 1 lost track of long i ago. In any event — like the song says — 1 gotta be me. The guy smiled, and the two | of them got in the back. They looked like a well-matched couI pie, of the clean-cut mode. | Underway I asked, “St) how’ya enjoying your stay in | Burlington?” “Burlington’s just great,” the man replied. “Our cab ride | downtown was atrocious, though. When the cab arrived to 1 pick us up, my girlfriend was

A

taking a minute finishing up in the motel room, and the cabbie stuck his head through his win­ dow and started barking at us to hurry up.” “Well, you know how that goes,” I said. “Maybe he was having a rough night. I’m not excusing that behavior, though. There’s no need to take it out on innocent customers. “Now you’re a much nicer cabbie, the woman interjected. “Isn’t he, dear?” Her boyfriend chuckled. “Well he’s not screaming at us,

The new Chief didn’t say a f word, just smiled and nodded his head. 1 “If you don’t mind me askg, ing, you seem kinda young. How : long have you been with the ft department?” “Twelve years,” he replied. “The force has about 11 full| time officers.” The guy was so proud, as well he should be. An entire commu­ nity, the largest in the Northeast Kingdom, has placed it’s safety and protection in his hands. For somebody in law enforcement, ■ what could be a greater recognition, or honor? f Since the disas­ ter of 9/11, these matters of public 1 protection are sud­ denly fust and fore­ most. It’s not just i theoretical anymore; the bravery and sac­ rifice of those many firefighters and police officers at the World Trade Center have made it ail too real. One would guess Vermont's Northeast Kingdom I is far down the list of terrorist targets. S But still, if the pub­ lic security is under attack from any quar- ters, it’s the local men and ® women in blue — like this softspoken new Chief sitting in the back of my cab — who stand ready to lay down their lives on our behalf. | 1 thought back to my rebel­ lious youth, and how that ver­ sion of myself would react to this g; appreciative view of the cops. It’s one more thing to add to a grow- | ing list of outlook changes that come with age. “You know,” I said, turning g into the hotel at the illuminated silhouette of Ethan Allen, “if I’da known who I was dealing with, I might not have driven quite so fast up through the University.” § “Don’t worry,” he said, laugh­ ing. “I’m not working tonight, *and besides, this isn’t my - •1?; g precinct!” He then took out a ten and handed it to me, adding, ,1 “Keep the change and thanks for the ride.” I “No, Chief,” I replied. “Thank you." ®

In my mind, I was going over their crabby cabbie story. If I was that cabbie, I thought I’d spare the slowmovers and save my outbursts for customers who really deserve it. “Hey, do you ever get up to St. J?” the woman asked, chang­ ing the subject. “Maybe a couple of times a year or so. Why do you ask?” “Because this guy right here is the new Chief of Police of St. Johnsbury.” I glanced up at the rear-view mirror, and I could see the woman beaming.

Anthony Kiedis, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS. April, 1990. Patrick Gym, Burlington. “The band opened for the Violent Femmes. During their act, I thought for sure the harri­ er in front of the stage would cave in. I had a pass, so I was on the opposite side of it from the audience, which was going wild. I ducked under the stage twice, thinking the barrier would collapse at any minute. The whole gym was one big mosh pit.”

PH O TO S: M ARK HARLAN

ark H arlan had an epiphany 24 years ago at an America

M

concert near D etroit. His transform ation was less about the

easy-on-the-ears trio singing “A Horse W ith No N am e” than the fact that he wasn’t half bad at capturing images on '■ o

stage w ith his 35-m m C anon.

A lthough he is now a prolific rock ’n’ roll shutterbug, the 47-yearold B urlington resident did not appreciate either the joys o f live music ox the art o f photography until he was well into adulthood. He saw his first show at age 24, just a few weeks before the America gig. These days, H arlan has a treasure trove o f pictures capturing many top acts in the m usic business, including Fleetwood Mac, Linda R onstadt, T he Grateful Dead, Dire Straits, A C /D C , ‘N Sync, Jennifer Lopez and D estiny’s C hild, am ong others. As both a professional pho­ tographer and som ew hat obsessive archivist, he travels hundreds of miles to snap whomever, wherever, whenever. “I’m pretty open -m in d ed ,” H arlan says o f his passion for im m ortal­ izing rock icons. “I probably w ouldn’t go out and buy Britney Spears’ latest C D , but I’d photograph her in a heartbeat. Same for someone like Snoop Dogg. T here’s room for everybody.” »

Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend, THE WHO. July, 1989. Glens Falls, New York. “I had already shot a few rolls. Then, during the last song or two, I was finally spotted by security guards. They grabbed me, took me into a room and demanded my film. I said no. They escorted me out.”

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN.

July,

1984. Montreal,

Quebec.

“This was my first time in Montreal to shoot, so I didn’t know what to expect. I got my cameras in by wearing a lot of elastic placed in areas where generally you don’t want to frisk me - know what I’m saying? I worked my way up front and had two cameras around my neck, only one with a lens on it. After the first few songs, I was grabbed by a security guy who took me outside and said, ‘Give me your lens.’ I told him, “OK.” But I had another one in my pocket. After that, I went back in and was very discreet.”


MUSIC ISSU E

STING. February, 1984. Providence, Rhode Island. “It was the Synchronicity tour, the first con­ cert where I was frisked. I had a big parka on, with lenses crammed into every pocket and hidden by my scarf. The guard told me, ‘Well, I don’t see a camera, so go on in.’ The camera was in my hood because they’re not going to search you up there. A friend had sixth row tickets, so we swapped seats. I kept snapping, snapping, snapping, one after another. No motor drives. A just-plain Joe with a camera, but I made sure it was in focus.”

PRINCE. May, 1998. “The Today Show,” New York City. “The NBC still photographer and I were the only ones right in front of the stage.-I used a 200mm lens. He played an extra 34 min­ utes. Thankfully, I’d brought a lot of film. Prince had his pimp look going. He was pretty stationary. The worst problem was people in the audience pushing forward.”

MADONNA. June, 1990. Worcester, Massachusetts. “My [seventh row] ticket was too close —• I was practically in her face. So I had to go back three rows. I’d sneaked in my camera and a couple near me said, ‘We’ll watch for the cops.’ I said, ‘Fabulous.’ They were watching my back. I sent them a couple of photos as a thank-you gift. I would have done OK without them, but it lessened the anxiety factor.”

DICK DALE. October, 1995. Club Toast, Burlington. “I got him kneeling to tune his guitar. Some of my very best pictures turn out to be the moment they hit the stage. He liked this shot a lot when I showed it to him a year or so later. I sent him a copy.”

----------------------- PHOTOS: MARK HARLAN Maybe not in his living room, though. In Harlans tiny Old North End apart­ ment, boxes of pictures vie for space with an extensive vinyl collection, racks of CDs and an array of kitsch: an Elvis clock and a George Harrison poster adorn the walls; a Road Runnier glass light hangs from the ceiling; and an Ozzy Osborne plastic lunchbox rests on a cabinet. Harlan extricates piles of publications that include his work. There’s a 1989 por­ trait of Ella Fitzgerald at the Burlington Discover Jazz Festival that made it into The New York Times. He got The Artist Formerly Known as Prince looking prince­ ly for the pages of a Tommy Hilfiger book that, in Harlans words, is about “rock stars and their threads.” And hey, isn’t that Madonna during her Blonde Ambition tour in a glossy French magazine? The adventurous nature of his pursuit tells the real Mark Elarlan story. Paparazzistyle, he is permitted to get up close and personal at the warm-weather outdoor concerts in New York City put on by NBC’s “The Today Show.” But despite a scrapbook full of backstage passes — about 180 of them — the guy takes risks by smuggling cameras into other venues that forbid them. “I’ve had to be cloakand-dagger sometimes,” he acknowledges. “And I have been caught. The anxiety luckin’ kills ya.” His kamikaze approach is not by choice. Harlan’s only steady market is Starfile, a stock photo agency in Manhattan that pays him 50 percent of what it charges a news­ paper or magazine for images. It’s a nice arrangement but doesn’t afford him the cre­ dentials, and access, that are generally given to bonafide photojournalists.

A

s a teen-ager, Harlans life was out of step with his generation’s cultural tastes. After graduating from high school, the Ohio native enlisted in the U.S. Navy and served in San Francisco for a year in 1973. Even though that California city was still a hippie mecca for music, “I was kind of straight-laced,” he recalls. “I didn’t hang out with people who went to concerts. I went to ball games. I was oblivious.”

Harlan was transferred to Guam, and his two years on the small Pacific island southeast of the Philippines were a time of discovery. “I bought my first camera in 1974 when I saw that a friend had taken some really nice 35-mm snapshots. I thought, ‘Oh, this is interesting.’ On a trip to Hong Kong, Okinawa, Taiwan and the Philippines, I took slides.” Eager to move beyond tourist sou­ venirs, Harlan enrolled in some basic adult education photography courses in Ohio once he was discharged from the military. “From that point on, it was like throwing

Gaynes, a discount department store that has since folded. He remained there until 1989. “I wanted to see what would hap­ pen next,” he says. “In terms of concerts, I was all over the map. I shot at H unt’s and at Memorial Auditorium. I had friends at W IZN who helped me get into these places. But I also went to Montreal, Providence, Worcester, Massachusetts.” Then, one day, Harlan’s hobby took on new meaning. “I decided that some of this music stuff should start paying for itself, so I hooked up with a stock agency, the Freelance Photographers Guild. Rock real­

Olympics to me. Even though I was Mr Low-Budget all the way, I knew from start to finish this was going to be something special. I’d never been to such a big event before, but I was totally at ease and at home. Those 186,895 people who bought tickets were my best friends.” Another thrill has been the Friday morning performances at “The Today Show,” to which he began regularly trekking in 1997. Harlan now ventures to the Big Apple several times a season. “I average about 10 a year,” he explains. “They’re free, on the street, so it’s total

“If it’s, say, Destiny’s Child playing, I know the photos are going to sell. That’s not true for James Taylor...” — PHOTOGRAPHER MARK HARLAN gasoline on a fire. I learned more and more.” The America pictures were good enough that he figured, “‘Well, I think I’ll keep doing this,”’ recounts Harlan, who started processing his film at the nearest drug store but now has a basement dark­ room. In 1978 he began attending the Rhode Island School of Photography in Providence, but what he studied at col­ lege had less of an impact than the city’s rock scene. “It was a great spot for shows. The Civic Center had a very lax policy for photography, so I was able to scoot around at will. The security was minim al.” ' During a summer job at Indiana’s Winona Professional School of Photography in 1980, Harlan had fewer opportunities to hear live music but, as a staff assistant, his skills improved dramati­ cally. A year later, he landed in Middlebury to work as “a lab guy” for a portrait studio - the placement office at his Rhode Island alma mater referred him for the position - and Vermont became home. When the Middlebury studio closed, Harlan moved north. He lived in an effi­ ciency motel room at first, while starting .to work in the camera department at

ly wasn’t their thing, though. I became a stringer for Tiger Beat Rock magazine but, after a year and a half, it went into Chapter 11 bankruptcy. There I was, back at square one, thinking, ‘What should I do?”’ What he did do was sign up with another agency, Starfile, in 1986. “They’ve done alright by me,” Harlan says. “It seems as if every time I picked up a cam­ era and had fun, it was always with music. I didn’t care if I had a job at Price Chopper watering lettuce to pay the bills, as long as I could keep shooting at con­ certs.”

L

ettuce watering would have to wait. Harlan’s favorite subject matter was only as far away as Stowe, which hosted major concerts from 1992 through 1994. During the second half of that decade, he took on assignments for The Collegian, a newspaper geared to students both on and off local campuses. “I did a lot of sports for them, which kept me fine-tuned. And it was an official way to get into venues.” The credentials also got him into the infamous Woodstock ’99 in Rome, New York. “The festival might have been horri­ ble for some but it was like the fuckin’

October i

First Amendment. Sometimes they even keep playing after the broadcast ends.” The getting-there can be arduous, however. “I usually drive to Rutland and take a bus to the city, stay up all night, go to NBC early in the morning — they let us in between midnight and 1 a.m. — to get the best spot, then come home after­ wards. If it’s, say, Destiny’s Child playing, I know the photos are going to sell. T hat’s not true for James Taylor, though I like him.” While his own tastes run to Rolling Stones, Beatles, classic rock and country, Harlan has scrutinized all the popular artists on M TV “to know which side of the stage to aim for,” he says. In the new millennium, Harlan paints houses to earn a steady paycheck, creates assemblages during his spare time by glu­ ing bottle corks together in fanciful pat­ terns and keeps aiming his camera — still a Canon — at famous faces in the rock pantheon. Bowing to middle age, he wears eye­ glasses to compensate for farsightedness, which makes his work more difficult. But he isn’t quite ready to take a technological leap forward. “1 don’t have an auto locus or any digital equipment,” Harlan says^ “— yet.” (Z)

SEVEN DAYS

October 17,2001

O

ver the last quarter-century, punk rock and its “hard­ core” evolutions have expo­ nentially spawned long lists of sub-genres and crossovers. We now have emo, country-punk, grunge, power-violence, poppunk, grind, industrial and more “-core” suffixes than you can shake a stick at. The proliferation of labels makes for a confusing shop at the punk-rock supermar­ ket. W hat started as three chords and an attitude has turned into definitions and debates about what is and isn’t “punk” or “hard­ core” — especially as regards styles and hybrids that would have been antithetical to mid-’70s reactionary punkers. Progenitors of the genre would have never envisioned, for example, the wanking progressive-rock influ­ ences of bands like King Crimson, Zappa or Yes entering into the picture. But, as punk continues its suburban sprawl, anything can happen. One of the more interesting trends, in fact, is the instrumental prog scene evolving from ex­ members of decidedly punk bands. Nation of Ulysses and The Locust, for instance, have seen

former members graduate to instrumental bands The Fucking Champs and Tristeza. Instru­ mental bands like Don Cabellero, Trans Am and Tortoise have found ways to expand on the style by using atypical instrumen­ tation from keyboards, vibes, horns and various sampled elec­ tronic flourishes, replacing the voice. In recent years this indieprog-instrumental wave has blos­ somed in Burlington. First to flower were The Cancer Conspiracy, an instru­ mental prog trio started several years ago as a result of loosely structured jam sessions between * former Rocketsled bandmates Daryl Rabidoux and Greg Beadle, following their departures from hardcore units Drowningman and Non Compos Mentis, respec­ tively. Having eschewed both their hardcore pasts and the need for a frontman, they now rely instead on tricky blends of guitar effects, keyboards, saxophone and a healthy dose of samples to blend rock with ambient noise. While fairly dissimilar from their earlier bands, The Cancer Conspiracy still acknowledge their musical origins. “I think what were doing is still rooted in punk and hard­ core,” says Rabidoux. “It’s like

what new wave was to punk, tak­ ing it and breaking new ground. It’s the difference between mall punks and real punks. To me, Zappa is more punk than Blink182.” Rabidoux adds that, in a way, not having a singer makes its own statement. When he and Beadle started out, they weren’t looking for an identifiable sound, just playing music that wasn’t “heavy.” At first they didn’t rule out the possibility of vocals. “The first show we played was at Emerald City in Montpelier,” explains Rabidoux. “Some friends needed a band to open for them and had heard we were working on something. So just Greg and I played, and we realized from peo­ ple’s reaction that we didn’t need a singer, or maybe even a bass player. From the first chord, peo­ ple were kind of drop-jawed — they weren’t familiar with what could be done with drums, guitar and a sampler, the kind of trancey noise-wash we were making.” Soon afterwards, though, the pair decided to add bassist Brent Frattini, formerly of local hard­ core band The Worst Five Minutes of Your Life. The trio began to attract local attention. Though the audience reception was warm, the band felt limited


don’t have much to do with the punk or hardcore scene, so they don’t associate us with that back­ ground,” Rabidoux notes. “Some of them have really liked it for being good, weird or whatever... They have a whole different point of view. I feel like we’re doing more to take chances than other bands.” The new label, Big Wheel, has been helping, according to Johnson. “They got So Good dis-' tributed by Lumberjack, who dis­ tributes all their stuff. Lumber­ jack took a ton of CDs. The Cancer Conspiracy is definitely an up-and-coming band. I’m get­ ting the feeling that this could all really explode alter these Oysterhead dates,” he says. As for an indie-instrumental scene developing in Burlington, Johnson himself is involved in a mostly instrumental project called Carrigan, and he plans to release a CD in the near future featuring ex-Rocketsledder Casy Rea’s new outfit, The Dakota — not entirely instrumental but def­ initely prog-tinged. The younger generation is represented by Franklin County’s upstarts 13th Chair. Johnson sees these devel­ opments as less a trend than “a reaction against what’s on the radio, that vocal-driven, candyproduced music.” As further evidence of the post-punk aesthetic, Carrigan also features Drowningman alumnus Zack Martin, and 13th Chair comprises ex-members of punk-ska band The Super Spies. A mass exodus from the loud, heavy end of the musical spectrum to the more dynamic and atmospheric reaches may seem like a significant shift, but in Johnson’s experience it makes sense. “You end up playing what you know. I think the bands we’re all in now are more geared towards what we’re into,” he says. “W hen I was in Non Compos, I wasn’t really listening to stuff like sludge-metal. In Carrigan I feel more free, it’s more wide open and we can explore new territory.” Carrigan began as a collabora­ tion between Zack Martin and

by the local scene and began to look furthf r afield. v “I dom. think there is as much of a live music scene as there Was, say, four or five years ago,” observes Rabidoux. “A lot of newer clubs opening up are resorting more to deejays... It hasn’t hurt us so much, since we’ve found that people interest­ ed in seeing our band tend to go out and research it. But we’ve found cities like Boston and New York to be more supportive of what we’re doing.” With regular gigging through­ out the Northeast, several excur­ sions to the Midwest and the release of a sell-titled EP, The Cancer Conspiracy have been slowly making a buzz regionally and nationally. The EP is on So Good Music, run by Beadles for­ mer Non Compos bandmate, Ken Johnson. He established the tiny label in order to get Cancer Conspiracy’s music distributed. After hearing the band’s demo, Johnson says, “I got them a show in Ontario, and after the show we ended up talking. I had a drunken revelation that I want­ ed to..-, start a record label and have more to do with the Burlington scene.” The decision proved to be a good one. Critical reaction has been positive and sales strong. “At this point with The Cancer Conspiracy., it’s going so fast I can hardly keep up,” Johnson remarks. “I’ve been doing a lot of mail order.” Recently the band acquired what Rabidoux refers to as a “handshake” deal with Boston’s Big Wheel label, and |>lans a fulllength CD, entitled The Audio Medium, for the end of January. It will sound “more experimental,” he says, and will include songs in excess of 20 minutes with even more electronic flourishes and effects. The band seems to be set on its all-instrumental path. Meanwhile, The Cancer Conspiracy look forward to sever­ al dates next month with Oysterhead, the Trey Anastasio/ Les Claypool/Stewart Copeland project. Things are looking prom­ ising for this band hoping to break out of their former molds. “Some of the bands we play with

A lot of people I might not have expected to really do like what we’re doing.” The other former Super Spies cite influences from modern pro­ gressives Radiohead and jazz, but still have a fondness for ska. “What we’re doing is still based in punk, I mean, that’s our back­ ground,” explains Chris Valyou. “We’re using more than four chords, but I think this type of music is still about pushing away from the mainstream.” True to the punk do-it-your­ self ethos, 13th Chair have been saving money since their Super Spies days, and have built their own studio, where they plan to record their debut release soon.

The first Carrigan demo, recorded by a friend in a barn, features Martin playing most of the instruments, with guest appearances on piano and trumpet. The recording showed great potential, but the band configuration didn’t lend itself to live performances. . The addition of Johnson on drums lent Carrigan the muscle to play out, and to gradually incorporate vocals. And over the past year, Martin has been teach­ ing himself to play vibes, which are becoming an important com­ ponent of the band. “Most peo-

pie who play vibes play them as a solo instrument and play them much differently than I do,” Martin notes. “I use them pretty sparingly in what we do. I never took lessons, I just learned to play them my own way.” On stage, the band also uses sampling on keyboards, borrowed and found equipment, sound bytes from vintage organs, or, as Martin describes it, “whatever we can fandangle.” The 13th Chairs take on the instrumental trio relies solely on the standard drum, bass and gui­ tar format. Chris and Tyson Valyou and Jesse Chamberlain initially considered a vocalist, but ultimately decided they “just did­ n’t need it.” With The Cancer Conspiracy breaking ground locally and beginning to pick up speed nationally, more local bands are confidently following in their footsteps. “I think it definitely is becoming somewhat of a scene, even though bands like ours and The Cancer Conspiracy, Carrigan and The Dakota don’t really sound much like each other,” says Chris Valyou. “I am surprised,

building their own studios to starting record labels to utilizing found and borrowed sounds and instrumentation. They also give a collective nod to their predeces­ sors. “I think we’re all influenced by a genre of instrumental-music bands like Tortoise, Trans Am and Don Caballero. That Chicago thing, stuff from labels like Thrill Jockey and Touch and Go,” admits Martin. But the wide parameters of the style allow each band to create its unique slant on the sound. In a city as small as Burlington, it could be argued that three or four bands consti­ tute a musical “movement.” It can be described with punk shorthand — post-emo-indieinstrumental-electronic-rock? — or just enjoyed for what it is without pigeonholing. Keeping the label open to interpretation seems to be one of the goals. “We have been compared to other bands,” concedes Rabidoux. “When people read about a band and it says, ‘They sound like this band or that band,’ I think peo­ ple end up making their own judgment.” ®

off to prepare for the evening’s soundcheck. “But for a long time we never really did anything about it. It was kind of like our little dream.” But when an illegally run folk music club in the area folded, an opportunity arose, and suddenly the couple’s pipedream became reality. “It was always kind of a weird place, but we liked the room,” says Stivac. “We called to see if we could sign a lease, and we began renovating immediately and having shows a week later.

As diverse and changing communities, what do we really care about?” These heartfelt and timely words come from the introduction to the first issue of La Voce Del Popolo, the in-house publication of Casa del Popolo, an unassuming little vegetarian cafe which has over the past year become Montreal’s grassroots home of adventurous music, art and political -activism. The Casa’s mismatched tables and chairs, eye-catching installa­ tions and wholesome veggie fare bring to mind such local analogues past and present as Burlington’s Last Elm Cafe, Hardwick’s Compost Art Center and Montpelier’s Pyralisk. Situated on upper St-Laurent, far past the strip clubs, blinking neon and seemingly endless clothing stores, Casa del Popolo — that’s “House of the People” in Italian — was opened in September last year by Stivac and her partner Mauro Pezzante, a member of Montreal’s experimental rock unit Godspeed You Black Emperor! “Mauro and I have always talked about opening a little cafe,” says Stivac, a friendly and enthusi­ astic twentysomething with a pixie haircut, settling down for a few minutes between fetching musi­ cians from the airport and hustling

But how does a little cafe the size of Burlington’s Radio Bean make any money doing this? “We don’t,” says Stivac with a laugh. “We’re young and rash. We got really excited and lost some money, and I think as a result we’ve learned what we can actually afford and what’s reasonable to do.

having these loud rock shows here,” Stivac says, “and the volume caused some problems with our neighbors. This isn’t really a good place for drunk, rowdy people who can break the artwork, for example.” Holding a lease on a pair of rooms allows the Casa to present two events simultaneously, and there’s a whole lot more going on there than just music. Local pub­ lishers ECW, Vehicule and Conundrum Presses have recently celebrated book launches there, and free monthly events like “Kino at Casa” (movie night), “The Words and Music Show” (a boundary­

The room’s history can be read in its weathered wooden walls and floorboards; Stivac proudly points out the pres­ ence of the room’s original stamped aluminum ceiling. Now the Casa is the epicenter of a wide variety of creative pursuits. Most notably, its summer jazz festi­ val, which ran throughout June and

“The only way we make money is by selling beer,” she adds sheep­ ishly, “and free-jazz people, they don’t drink beer. So we have to bal­ ance things out, like [presenting that kind of music] once a month now instead of five times a month.” Even so, the Casa’s presenta­ tions have resulted in a packed house often enough that the cafe’s operations have spilled over into a larger ballroom space located on the third floor of La Sala Rossa, Montreal’s Spanish cultural center, just across the street. “We were also

But we’re pretty open to anything and take a lot of chances, so sometimes we find out whether or not we like something after the fact.”

“It’s one of the only clubs in the world I look forward to returning to,” remarks Eremite Records’ Michael Ehlers, a Northamptonbased producer who’s often booked tours for groups that record for his label. “Their love and respect for good music is evident in every aspect of their business. I hope they get the support they need to stay around for a long time.” The very presentation of non­ mainstream creative work is implic­ itly a political act, but the Casa’s inhouse magazine La Voce Del Popolo specifically fixes the venue’s interest in and commitment to grassroots activism. In addition to disseminat­ ing information about upcoming concerts and events, there are arti­ cles on the FTAA Summit in Quebec City, agribusiness and body self-image, side by side with CD reviews, an interview with saxo­ phonist Tim Berne, horoscopes, comic strips and recipes. The publi­ cation allows patrons to bring some of the Casa’s creative spirit home with them, and it’s an easy point of entry for folks who want to get more involved in the Popolo scene. “Don’t be afraid or shy to sub­ mit,” urges Stivac in the closing to her letter. “Most of the work in here is by first-time writers/artists/ photographers who had something they wanted to make public. I’ve never made a magazine before, either, or run a restaurant/music venue before, for that matter. Maybe just doing the shit that mat­ ters ain’t that hard, after all, and can get done, especially if we do it all together.” (Z)

I had to have one. When David bought a new accordion, I convinced him to sell me his — an Italian Scandalli 120, referring to the number of bass buttons on the left-hand side. It’s black, gold and pearl, with five different key­ board settings, each of which ini­ tiates different combinations of reeds to produce varying tones. Originally, there were small, white plastic tiles above the key­ board that spelled out “Mar­ garet.” David rearranged them to spell “Wage Art,” and I’ve left this timely imperative in place. What I love most about my accordion is the absurd beauty of it. A piano accordion is an awk­ ward contraption — its asym­ metrical design brings to mind the wild imaginings of Dr. Seuss. But the act of playing it is like an embrace. When musician and instrument interact, the accor­ dion breathes. I’ve had relationships with

the Hasidic one David is teach­ ing me for the peace march this weekend. I could have learned more, bur lately I’ve been focus­ ing on ways to embellish the ones I already know: adding flourishes, experimenting with different ways to interpret the bass part. I haven’t tired of David’s company, though most of the time I am playing on my own. Which is another reason to love the accordion — it sounds great in an ensemble, hut is equally satisfying solo. I am not alone in appreciat­ ing the accordion. Soon after tak­ ing up the instrument, I realized I was a neophyte member of a burgeoning subculture. Lots of people play the accordion, it seems, and all of them are excited to talk about it. Barb Kester became my teacher when David left on a summer-long U.S. tour with The Wandering Jews. “I imagined

local musician and host of Vermont Public Radio’s folk music show “All The Traditions,” describes the appeal of the accor­ dion in more practical terms: “It’s a battle instrument. You can play it outdoors and people can hear you. One person can make rhe noise of three.” A 29-year veteran of the squeeze box who doubles as a ref­ erence librarian, Resnik is an encyclopedia of accordion info. He segues seamlessly from a comprehensive history of accor­ dion manufacturing, to the mer­ its of diatonic button box accor­ dions versus chromatic piano accordions, to a list of every accomplished accordion player within a 100-mile radius. He mentions Gus Ziesing of Mango Jam and Canon LaBrie of Yankee" Chank. Resnik also notes some of the most accomplished accor­ dion players in rhe world live just north of the border in Quebec.

Resnik attributes the popular­ ity of the accordion to its porta­ bility and amazing versatility. “You can play it gently, you can play it wild. It’s a real folk instru­ ment," he explains. “People tend to take it and do with it what they will." Consequently, accor­ dions have managed to permeate a surprising variety of musical styles, from Jewish klezmer to Argentinian tango. Popular groups picking it up include Shania Twain, The Gin Blossoms and Ani DiFranco. f he rise, fall and subsequent “comeback" of the accordion is a curious thing. When I started playing the accordion, I was sur­ prised to discover that despite the nostalgia it generates, the accor-

His efforts met with some resistance. From the Nazis, for instance, who denounced it for its connection to African- • American jazz and dance music. Christoph Wagner, the author of Das Akkordeon: Eine Wilde Karriere, writes, “The president of the Reichsmuskik-kammer — the highest institution control­ ling music in .the Third Reich — declared that ‘now is the time to build a dam against the flooding of our musical life by the accor­ dion.”' I he accordion also made ene­ mies in the U.S. — a phenome­ non Resnik attributes to Lawrence Welk. Thanks to his polka-promoting television show, he says, playing the accordion

up best: “Everyone thinks they hate the accordion,” he says. “But they’ve never actually heard it, and when they do hear it, they’re surprised by how beauti­ ful it is." David, like me, believes in the transformative power of the instrument. “Last night I was playing,” he recalls, “and this beautiful young ballet dancer came and just started dancing. Another time this couple came y and joined me. The man was a juggler, and the woman was a fire-eater. She was blowing these huge orange fireballs. It just seems to do something to people, the accordion. They suddenly become circus people.” The accordion definitely has a strange effect on people. It alters

L — acco rd io n ist, Robert Resnik dion is a relatively new instru­ ment. Its first recognizable ances­ tor appeared in 1822, bur it was­ n’t until the 20th century that the chromatic piano accordion gained world-wide popularity, with its keyboard, expanding bel­ lows and standardized left-side bass button arrangement. Diatonic button accordions — also known as “button-boxes — are also common, as are their cousins the concertina and bandoneon. Accordion manufacturing began in Europe in the 1860s and quickly spread to every cor­ ner of the globe. There was at least one serious attempt to make it “respectable.” Ernst Hohner, a prominent German accordion manufacturer, tried to remake the accordion by publishing sheet music for classical works at one point in the late 1920s. He even established a college for accor­ dion teachers; -

became a joke. “Before that, peo­ ple worked really hard to become virtuosos,” Resnik says. PcsrWelk, “lots of poor little kids got saddled with lugging these heavy instruments to lessons and get­ ting mocked by their £>eers.” But, he says, the accordion is definitely making a comeback, as evidenced by its increasingly ubiq­ uitous presence in popular music. And don’t forget about the power of our dedicated subculture, both locally and nationally. In my research for this article I found an impressive number of accordion Internet resources, including an email address for a group called “Closet Accordion Players Association." People in the U.S. are rediscovering the accordion and beginning to see that in an age of techno-fied, sound-alike pop songs, the accordion is some­ thing real and beautiful. Symons, who plays all week long on Church Street, sums it

the mood; it elevates the most mundane moments. I’ve played for my grandmother in her assisted-living community. I jam with the kids at the boarding school where I work. I love the way the accordion interrupts the flow, changes the tone. People get this far-away look on their frees. They tell me that the music reminds them of a carnival, or of their S grandfather, or of their home. % That’s what it does for me, f too. Whether I’m playing at my h sister-in-law’s wedding reception, or in the middle of Groton State Forest, I fee! connected, charged, as if I’m stretching'muscles I did­ n’t know I had. Even if what I’m playing is a contemporary tune, there is something about the sound of the accordion that makes its music timeless, as if I’m conjuring the notes from some universal reservoir of hope or joy or sorrow. I’ve never felt in such good company playing alon'e. ®

And the Band

Played On? B y George T habault he music didn’t exactly die the day Act 60 went into effect four years ago, but public schools in Vermont are singing a different tune these days when it comes to arts education. Some “poor” schools are now hearing violins at the expense of formerly “rich” ones that have had to part with stringed-instrument programs. Increasing emphasis on “core” subjects statewide is squeezing programs that have managed to survive. The most dramatic “before-and-after” example is still in South Burlington, a “wealthy” town with a music program that was once the envy of the state. For years, kids in fifth grade had the opportunity to take up violin or cello and get free in­ school lessons. The early strings effort helped create a full-size high school orchestra and also sent talented youngsters into the ranks of the statewide Vermont Youth Orchestra.

T

Until Act 60 came along. Now South Burlington homeowners are paying higher school taxes and the town is sending almost $3 million a year to the state’s “sharing pool” that helps bring school spending up in other, less propertywealthy towns. The general music pro­ gram — which consists of several bands, choral groups and course offerings in elec­ tronic music and composition — avoided the axe, but the popular strings program had to go. “It was a wonderful program,” says Melissa Brown, who viewed the effort as a South Burlington taxpayer, a member of the Vermont Symphony and a former pub­ lic school music teacher in Essex Junction. “There’s nothing now. Students who can afford private lessons are all set, but it’s the ones who don’t have the money who no longer have the opportunity to try strings.” The cuts have been slightly less dra­ conian in Essex Junction, where wannabe musicians used to start studying strings in

school and high school bands, keyboard and guitar classes, an orchestra and a strings program that starts in 4th grade. “We’ve got a lot of kids involved; we fill the gym for concerts and the adminis­ tration and board is very supportive,” Perkins says. “In my opinion, where the big hits are happening, someone has decided the arts are not a priority. But if a town is bound and determined to have an orchestra, they can have one — and it won’t cost them too much.” A good example is Charlotte, where Tony Pietricola has taught music for 15

third grade. “The band and chorus pro­ grams are in place, but the strings teacher is not full-time,” Brown notes. Winooski musicians, on the other hand, have benefited from the controver­ sial education funding law. “We didn’t experience the cutbacks; a lot of schools have lost programs, but we stayed ‘status quo,”’ notes music director Steve Perkins. “People don’t realize all that we offer here,” he says, pointing out that the dis— ' trict’s 830 students-are served by three full-time music teachers offering choral groups, 5th grade beginner band, middle

years. “This is an affluent community and people have a good sense of what the arts are worth,” he notes. But music for the 550 students at Charlottes elementary school is anything but an affluenr-kidsonly pursuit. “There are only three kids in 6th grade who don’t play an instru­ m ent... it’s the thing to do, really.” More troubling to Pietricola is the growing obsession in education circles for instruction and testing in “basic” subjects and how that impacts the arts. Schools are being assessed and ranked by how well students perform on statewide standard­ ized tests in math and language arts at sev­ eral grade levels. This year, the state is adding science testing to the assessment regimen, with social studies to follow in a future year. “Just about every elementary school has some kind of instrumental music pro­ gram, but I’m starting to see a crack in the wall. I’m starting to see the push for more of this subject or that subject and music being squeezed out,” laments Pietricola, who is also president of the Vermont Music Educators Association. “Here in my school physical education, art, music, and foreign language all are squeezed into two periods; the result is that there’s always five or 10 kids out when the band meets.” Williston musicians, Pietricola says, have to meet before school starts, so the num ­ bers of 5th and 6th graders playing instru­ ments has dropped. Melissa Brown concurs. “When to do lessons during the school day is the tough question today. Music lessons used to be during school, now it’s before or after because pull-outs are very much frowned upon.” She said an innovative approach is being tried in Waterbury, where the school offers private strings teachers a studio for teaching individuals or small groups and a student’s time for a private lesson is stag­

gered — different each week — so that he or she doesn’t miss the same subject each week. , ‘“The questions we have to ask about the goals and the testing are, 'Is this really working? Is it benefiting the kids? Are schools child-centered or adult-centered? Is the purpose of elementary and middle

schools to have a well-rounded kid?” Pietricola says. Is music education destined to play second fiddle to math, language arts, sci­ ence and social studies? Perhaps not. Pietricola and other arts advocates are involved in two strategies to boost the prominence of arts education in Vermont. One is a recent $90,000 state grant to a new 17-member group of music, visual arts, dance and theater teach­ ers, along with other advocates, called the Vermont Arts Education Consortium. The group’s mission, says part-time coordinator Anne Taylor of Fairlee, is to improve com­ munication among arts educators, increase professional development opportunities for teachers and to help communities lobby for school arts programs. “We want to create resource lists and small advocacy groups that communities can tap into when they are facing budget cuts,” says Taylor. “These groups would work with the community to make the case for the arts.” An initial project for the group is now

art and music. “The first draft said we didn’t have to assess the kids, just have enough seat time for them. And that’s not acceptable,” Pietricola says. “If you go back to a seat-time stan­ dard, then time becomes the most impor­ tant thing,” he says. “But if you say a high school student should be proficient in one

underway: a statewide suyvey to see what schools are doing today to meet arts edu­ cation standards and if each school’s offi­ cial “action plan” for improvement includes the arts. “We also want to learn about the numbers of arts teachers and whether they’re certified or not.” Jill Peck, an Education Department

u

consultant for standards-based curriculm and assessment, said arts supporters in a town have to be “pro-active, not reactive” when it comes to funding issues. “People have to make sure the community and the boards have the information about arts programs before the budget decisions are made. Part of the consortium’s role will be to bring groups together to look at the big picture of arts education.” The second, and perhaps more contro­ versial, step is a variant of the ‘if you can’t beat ‘em, join 'em’ school of thought: Make education in theater, art, music and dance prime subjects, too, provide clear standards for teachers and students and develop stan­ dardized assessment methods that can be applied to arts programs all over the state. Pietricola concedes it’s a tall order. The first draft of the School Quality Standards from the Department of Education two years ago called for K-6 students to have some kind “twice weekly” arts program. It suggested high school stu­ dents should have a basic understanding of the four key art forms: dance, theater,

of the art forms, it’s a much different approach than saying how long he or she has to spend at it.” The state Board of Education revised its standards, Pietricola says, to include a pro­ vision that before 2005 local school districts must report to the state and their commu­ nities as to how students are meeting the standards in the arts. And until that time, the new consortium will be helping to revise and strengthen state standards and assessment methods to raise the profile — and expectations — of Vermont’s public school music and arts programs. Key to the success of that effort will be how new state standards and statewide assessment in the arts will play with timestrapped educators who typically value cre­ ativity and independence over administra­ tive paperwork. “There’s so much busywork now about standards and assess­ ments — it’s difficult and time-consuming when you have an orchestra with 85 young musicians. Assessing them might take two weeks,” Brown says. “Then I’d have no time for rehearsals.” (7)

Diana Winn Levine faces the music — and m ersity — with her new album, By S usan Green n a funky white farmhouse on a Marshfield dirt road, Diana Winn Levine takes comfort in a line written by for­ mer Vermont state poet Louise Gluck: “Circumstance may prompt art, but art is the ulti­ mate revenge against circum­ stance.” The 55-year-old singer-song­ writer is exacting hers, despite two daunting challenges. Eight years ago she lost her husband, David “Crow” Levine, to cancer. In the spring of 2000, part of her right arm was amputated after a medical procedure that went hor­ ribly, tragically wrong. Despite now experiencing tendonitis from increased dependency on her left hand, Levine is struggling to approxi­ mate normality. With this months release of a new album, Sink or Swim, she has reclaimed music as the central focus in a career that spans more than two decades. “I keep asking myself, ‘What am I going to do with this jour­ ney I don’t want to be on?”’ she says. “It’s such a giant task. And I’ve been stripped of the very thing that could heal me. I can no longer access music through the piano or guitar.” Luckily, Levine can still sing. Her vocals on the album, which

was already in progress when the accident took place, convey a bittersweet yearning for her lost soul mate. She married Crow — a guitarist with the popular country-rock ensemble, Coco and the Lonesome Road Band — in the late 1970s. Together, they had a daughter, Jessamine, who is now 18 and a freshman at Smith College. In addition, the couple put out seven success­ ful recordings for the family market over the years and launched a cottage-industry record label, Re-Bop, in 1989. “The CD is very much about loss,” Levine acknowledges. “It’s about facing devastation from the death of my husband, my music partner, the father of my child, the person I thought I’d be with forever.” One tune on Sink or Swim, the melancholy “Angel in the Snow,” seems to be a sort of sec­ ular prayer for guidance: “Where are you?/I don’t know where you are./Send some clue/a bright shooting star/white on blue/a single sun ray/an angel to show me the way.” Levine acknowledges that her moods swing from upbeat to glum and back again. “Guitar is no longer an option. I can’t put on earrings or a barrette in my hair, but I can play my whistling tea kettle,” she quips, while pouring hot water into a cup. “At

least it’s a blessing that I’m lefthanded.” he nightmare began last year, in April, when Levine went to a nearby health clinic for what should have been a perfunctory treatment. “I’ve had a chronic migraine problem since my college-days that was getting progressively worse. I’d get shots of a painkiller, Demerol, and an anti-nausea drug, Phenergan. Normally, I was given a shot in the butt, but this time a physician’s assistant made the mistake of giving me an IV.” If improperly administered in an artery instead of a vein, Phenergan can cause spasms and gangrene — a warning printed plainly on the medication’s label, Levine points out. “I knew right away something was wrong because it hurt,” she recalls. “The Demerol put me out, though, and I slept. When I woke up, the headache was gone but my arm was swollen and turning purple. I was in excruciating pain.” After a friend took her back to the clinic. Levine was given morphine for the pain and a blood thinner twice a day for three weeks to address the circu­ lation difficulties brought on by Phenergan. “They did not send me to the hospital,” she explains. “I was being falsely reassured that full capability would return.

evine’s longtime friend, Coco Kallis, worked with Crow in the Lonesome Road Band and remembers him as “a unique being who could speak through his guitar.” The three of them were once members of rhe same songwrit­ ers’ group. “Diana is an incredi­ ble poet,” says Kallis, a vocal music teacher at Twinfield Union School. “She has a way of taking the terrible calamities that have happened and turning them into something beautiful. She’s remarkable. And it’s a testimonial to her strength that she’s been able to keep the record company

was determined to continue.” The first new release was Oldies for Christmas in 1995. On that effort, Levine collaborated with engineer-producer Ron Back, who had been a music partner of singer Rory Block. “Ron helped Rory through the loss of her young son in a car accident and he was so support­ ive of me. A few years later, he died of cancer, to o ,s h e says. Levine learned that A & M had decided to drop the chil­ dren’s division, so, with some legal maneuvering, she got back the masters and the rights to rhe albums she and Crow had done. She put out a CD version of Daddy’s Lullabies in 1996. A year later, Re-Bop issued Motor City for Minors, an album of Motown music played by The Unknown Blues Band. Levine gathered youngsters, some from Waitsfield and others from New York City, to perform on Jukebox Party Songs in 1998. Then came Personality H it Parade, which rep­ resented a decade of Re-Bop’s best. For Kids, By Kids “digressed

Sink or Swim was coming along nicely. “I was on a roll,” she suggests of the productive period just before fate again intervened. “When I lost Crow, writing songs was how I got through the day,” she muses. “This time, it was too horrific to face. I can’t write about losing an arm. Who’s going to want to hear music about that?” Friends are willing ro pitch in ro transform her “melody ideas” ^ into clford progressions and arrangements, but Levine laments the fact that she’s no longer able to compose privately and independently. For the time being, she is expressing much of her anger and hurt through poetry,— prompt­ ed by assignments from her ther­ apist: “I got a Johnny, a bunch of vases, a hundred cards of sympa­ thy,” goes the refrain in one of them. “I’m sure not missin’ those surgeons’ faces, no, I’m just missin’ a part of me.” (Z)

person alive today to contemplate a time when people who made pop music also made seismic changes to the cultural, philo­ sophical and political landscapes of their day. Maybe reading Peter Brown and Steven Gaines’ The Love You Make or viewing the fabulous documentary The Compleat Beatles should become compul­ sory parts of the American cur­ riculum. When kids read the short stories of Hemingway in English class for the first time, .they acquire a sense of scale. It can be done this well, they learn, and everything they read for the rest of their lives is in some way measured against that level ol artistry. Were students intro­ duced to the work of The Beatles in music classes, or even acquainted with their global impact — and, later, that of

world events. I doubt there was a person over the age of 40 watch­ ing that night who didn’t wonder what the musician would have made of the past few weeks, the ways in which the world has changed, and the renewed appetite for war. I can’t entertain for even a sec­ ond the notion that anyone any­ where of any age might care what words of wisdom P Diddy, Lil’ Kim, Ricky Martin, Snoop Dogg or Eminem might have to offer. How, in fact, have today’s music industry giants responded? Let’s see: Janet Jackson has canceled her European tour because the t attacks “troubled” her, and she remains “concerned about the

Lennon’s alone — I doubt there would be a market for, or even tolerance of, some of the music being made today. It’s certainly difficult to imag­ ine serious-minded adults congre­ gating to celebrate the artistry, spirit and vision of any MTVgeneration musician the way those who filled Radio City Music Hall or watched on televi­ sion by the millions did on October 2. Try to picture it. Even minus the current national crisis, it is inconceivable. The music is immortal, of course, but what the broadcast brought home was something else: the extent to which we all miss Lennon’s personal take on

foreseeable future.” Her brother Michael has promised to organize a “We Are the World”-style celebrity benefit session. Weezer canceled their tour. Whitney Houston is graciously re-releasing her 10-year-old recording of “A Star Spangled Banner.” Madonna offered an impromptu prayer vigil and donated proceeds of a West Coasr concert to the relief fund. W hat 1 found inspiring as I watched the Lennon tribute was just how eerily resonant, even prophetic, a lot of his lyrics now seem. It was goosebump city throughout the evening as Dave Matthews sang a haunting “In My Life” (“There are places I'll remember all my life, though some have changed. Some forev­ er, not for better — some have gone and some remain”), Dave Stewart performed “Instant Kharma,” Natalie Merchant crooned “Nowhere Man” (which that night sounded like some­ thing that could have been writ­ ten about bin Laden: “He’s a real nowhere man, sitting in his nowhere land, making all his nowhere plans for nobody”), and Shelby Lynn’s otherworldly inter­ pretation of “Mother” spoke for thousands who lost loved ones in the attacks. “Imagine” has become as much an epitaph as an anthem, but never have the lyrics been so compelling: “Imagine there’s no countries... nothing to kill or die for, and no religion, too. Imagine all the people living life in peace.” After the Vietnam War

drew to a close, Lennon’s worldpeace kick seemed old-hat to some. Who could have guessed how ahead of its time it actually was: Kevin Spacey’s performance as host of the show was odd and

lost on no one, of course. A ben­ efit for victims of the attacks on New York, the broadcast hon­ ored the life and work of a man who was, as Spacey put it, “a Liverpudlian by birth” and “a New Yorker by choice.” Lennon

No matter your musical tastes

If ever there were a time for contacting Lennon’s snirit, this is it. Has one guy ever unifie so many about so muc wonderful, almost an act of anti­ showbiz. Where your traditional, tribute emcee likely would be gushingly reverent, the actor’s demeanor ran the gamut from grave (“Just think of your chil­ dren. Do you want them to be killed or don’t you?”) to ven­ omous (“While I’m honored to be here, I’m incredibly pissed off that this passionate prophet of peace and so many others aren’t with us tonight because we live in an increasingly violent world.”) He even belted out “Mind Games” and, for my money, pulled off his interpreta­ tion at least as credibly as whippersnappers like Marc Anthony, Craig David and Alanis Morissette handled other Lennon classics. The irony of the night was

took on the President of the United States and the FBI in his fight to stay in this country, in that city. Senseless violence ended his life in 1980 just as it ended the lives of 5798 others on September 1 1. It’s all sad and stupid and tragic beyond words. But some­ thing about Lennon’s words and music makes bearing up a little easier for an awful lot of people, somehow. And in the end that’s probably the most meaningful tribute of all. John Lennon would have turned 61 last Tuesday. The October 2 broad­ cast provided a reminder that, even in uncertain times, even in the face of loss and worldwide chaos, there remain causes for celebration. The music he made is one of them. ®

| Dear Cecil, | Did people really rim away to | join the French Foreign Legion? | — David in Vermont | | | | 1 | 1 | | ll | 1 | | 1 | | 1 | | | | I | | I | | | | £I | | | | 1 | § 1 | | | | | | 1 | I | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Thinking of enlisting, are we? You might want to give this a littie more thought. Here’s a rundown of the pertinent facts about La legion etrangere: (1) Yes, people really do run away to join it. That’s the whole point. The French Foreign Legion was founded in 1831 pri­ marily to give people something to run away to and only secondarily as a military unit. At the time France was inundated with refugees, adventurers, army deserters and the like who had fled the failed rebellions that swept Europe in 1830. Better to have these guys eating sand in North Africa, officials figured, than fomenting unrest in the streets of Paree. One big advantage was that the legion allowed you to enlist under an assumed name, a practice known as the anonymat. Joining the Legion did not render you immune from prosecution — the police periodically circulated descriptions of known criminals at Legion posts, and from time to time a recruit was extradited to his homeland to face criminal charges. But the Legion prided itself on not asking questions and on giving a fresh start to guys with unsavory pasts. Sometimes really unsavory. After the fall of the Third Reich, Germans, long a major presence in the legion, accounted for 60 percent of the manpower, with many former Nazi or even SS troops coming directly from POW camps. (2) Be prepared to suffer. The Legionnaire’s life has long been characterized by harsh discipline, low pay, scandalously inadequate supplies and support, impossible missions and often suicidal tactics. The frontal assault was a favorite gambit, and bravado often substituted for common sense. Despite or because of the brutal conditions, the Legion developed into one of the elite units of the French army, with many battle honors to its credit. On the other hand, the Legion’s desertion rate was high and many Legionnaires became burned-out wrecks. (3) Don’t expect to meet a lot of poets, disgraced noblemen and other upper-class types. While there’s been a smattering of swells

over the years, historically Legionnaires have been harddrinking, working-class brawlers — think the U.S. Marines, minus the sensitivity. One of the Legion’s many cherished tradi­ tions is an annual celebration of the battle of Camerone, Mexico, in 1863, in which a detachment of 65 Legionnaires fought to the last man against a force of 2000 Mexicans. Apart from the usual parades, etc., the celebration con­ sists primarily of getting drunk as -a pig for two days. (4) This brings up a related subject: Get used to the idea of dying for a lost cause. Although it’s a formidable fighting force, the legion has been squandered on a series of stupid military adventures. The Mexican cam­ paign of 1863-’67 was a case in point. A French army with the Foreign Legion in the vanguard installed the Austrian archduke Ferdinand Maximilian as emper­ or of Mexico. The Mexicans resisted fiercely, and nearly half the 4000 Legionnaires sent to Mexico died or deserted. Shortly after the Legion was withdrawn, Maximilian was captured and shot by a Mexican firing squad. The larger lost cause, of course, was French colonialism. The Legion’s two major cam­ paigns in the past 50 years, in Indochina and Algeria, both ended in decisive defeats. At Dien Bien Phu, Vietnam, in 1954, the Legion and the rest of

a large French army was sur­ rounded by Viet Minh forces | under General Vo Nguyen Giap | and capitulated after months of | horrible privation. Total Legion | casualties in Indochina, 1946| ’54: nearly 45,000. The Legion | did better militarily in Algeria, | but the war was lost, anyway, and | one paratroop regiment disgraced | itself by joining an unsuccessful | | coup against the French government in 1961. | (5) Don’t expect to eat a lot | of sand in North Africa. When | the French were expelled from | Algeria in 1962, the Foreign | Legion, which had been head| quartered there throughout its | history, moved back to France. | The French colonial empire hav­ ing been mostly dismantled, the § Legion’s workload diminished, too, although it still sees service in some of France’s former | colonies. But, don’t worry, you | still get to wear the kepi blanc (white pillbox cap) made famous | | in movies such as Beau Geste. Like much else connected with | the Legion, the tradition of the | kepi is partly humbug; the white | hat didn’t become standard until . I around the time the movie came | out in 1939. Also like much else | connected with the Legion, it’s a 1 beau geste (beautiful gesture). | Very nice, but in the end you | think, all this accomplished I what? |

nor’s seat continues to divide his supporters. Don’t be fooled, like some, who misread the recent Vermont Public Radio poll as an indication voters don’t want Bernie to run for governor. The poll showed 55 percent want Sanders to stay in Congress, while 39 percent want him to replace Howard Dean. The 55 percent, no doubt, includes Republicans hacking Jim D o u glas and Democrats faithful to Doug R a c in e who dread Big Foot Bernie messing up their plans. On the upside, the fact that Sanders got 39 percent support for governor without lifting a fin­ ger is an indicator of his strong base. On the downside, it doesn’t look like Mr. Sanders will be able to use his fat congressional cam­ paign war chest to Finance a run for governor. According to Federal Election Committee fil­ ings, Sanders had $588,000 left over in the kitty as of June 30. Very nice cushion. But Secretary of State Markowitz told Seven Days she agrees with the recent opinion •from the attorney general’s office that Bernie can’t transfer the money under Vermont campaign finance law. “Our reading is no,” said Markowitz. “That’s because his federal campaign is a separate entity,” she said. “To be a Vermont campaign, you have to follow the Vermont rules, and they’re radically different.” Under Vermont law, Sanders could only transfer the maximum allowable contribution — $400 — from his congressional war chest to a gubernatorial cam­ paign. Sec. Markowitz said the attor­ ney general’s office is doing “a lit­ tle more research nationally” on the matter, but she doesn’t expect the opinion to change. The Vermont rules “make sense,” she said. “Otherwise there would be a huge loophole.” Sorry, Bernie. Kiss of deathi Food for Thought — There are basically two kinds of people in Burlap: those who support the new locally owned downtown City Market, and those who hate it, wishing Shaw’s had gotten the contract. Lately, the haters have been winning the shouting matches. So last week’s in-store press conference was a much anticipated attempt by the Onion River,.Co-op to reverse the publicrelations tide. The building’s up and the roof’s on and it’s just the interior Ft-up that’s left. The Onion River Co-op’s development consultant, David W hite, opened with a rous­ ing sermon on the “unique char­ acter” the new South Winooski Avenue supermarket will have. He touted the principle of “Food for People, Not for Profit.” He sang the glories of the his­ tory of the co-op movement going all the way back to the rural electric co-ops of the Depression and the co-ops


Vermont dairy farmers formed long ago to market their milk. Jo lin d a L a C la ir, formerly with Sen. Jeffords’ office, was on hand to present the big $3.6 mil­ lion loan check from Uncle Sam. Ms. LaClair currently serves as state director for the USDA’s Rural Development branch. That’s right, Vermont is so small compared to the rest of the country that its largest city is under the 50,000 population cap and thus qualifies for “rural” development funds. Great country, eh? Next Consultant White trot­ ted out a Burlington legend — 84-year-old Antonio Pom erleau, a very successful supermarket developer and the city’s former, longtime police commission chairman. Twenty years ago, Tony the Palm was the first big-wig busi­ nessman to play ball with the rev­ olutionary Sanders administration that captured Burlington City Hall in 1981. The millionaire and the socialist actually got surpris­ ingly cozy. Both are wheelerdealers. “Let’s give ‘em a chance,” said Tony the Palm, countering the critics of the needed downtown market. “Let’s support cm,” he said. “I will.” It was like a endorsement from Don C orleon e himself. The Godfather has spoken. If Tony the Palm says the Co-op’s kosher, then maybe it really is? Mr. White acknowledged all the skeptics out there, saying, “To the extent that there are skeptics out there, I’m sorry. But so be it. It’s almost like a political cam­ paign, where you’ve got a bitter primary campaign that gets fought and even the winning can­ didate comes out somewhat crip­ pled in terms of public percep­ tion. Well, we were the winning candidate and inevitably that polarized some people.” Mr. White promised City Market will open “by the end of January.” But even though construction is proceeding, there is the little matter of the $400,000 financing gap. Are you confident the $400,000 will be raised from the membership? we asked. “Absolutely,” replied White. “We’re in very good shape.” Fingers crossed. Best wishes. Buy lottery tickets. Here’s my rabbit’s foot, just in case.

S e e ya U p stairs, Mary! —

Former State Rep. M ary Evelti (D-Burlington) passed away Sunday. She was 81. Mary was certainly a proud Democrat and served in the Legislature with for­ mer Gov. M ad elein e Kunin. In 1997, she became the University of Vermont’s oldest graduate. As her obit said, “Mary lived a full life.” Mrs. Evelti’s wit was as sharp as they come. And yours truly will always remember her as the first person to call a certain young and energetic New York doctor “Ho-Ho.” Thanks, Mary. ®

sibly never imagined, and her inter­ pretation of Nick Drake’s “Day Is Done” is equally mesmerizing. Almost as cool and soulful is the voice ofTheryl de Clouet, with his smoky cover of Earth, Wind & Fire’s “Mighty Mighty” and rhe Willie Dixon classic, “Spoonful.” Maybe the press kit should hawk these songs as anti-stress medication. Mos Def appears on a couple of songs and shows that he is not your typical rapper. “Street Sounds” kicks off the album with an urban Latin feel, and D ef’s rap is unlike all that follows. In “Creole,” he plays the smooth soul singer, with impressive results. Hunter publicly laments the sad state of music today, but gives us hope with a collec­ tion of songs that is accessible but not predictable, “old school” without being redun­ dant. Mixed and mastered ro the highest standards, this is one to appreciate at top volume. The Charlie Hunter Quartet appear October 31 at Higher Ground, with guest vocalist Jans Ingber. Robert Walter’s 20th Congress open the show.

SONGS FROM THE ANALOG PLAY­ GROUND (Blue Note Records, CD) — Charlie Hunter learned guitar at an early age from the legendary Joe Satriani, and has worked with the Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy and Les Claypool (of Primus fame), among others. So it’s no surprise that the press materials for his latest album claim lie’s gone out and cre­ ated “a whole new sonic terrain.” That is hyperbole in the extreme, as the songs borrow heavily from wellknown sounds in the realm of jazz, soul and funk. Nevertheless, Hunter and crew make it feel incred­ ibly fresh. The sounds of drummer Stephen Chopek and per­ cussionist Chris Lovejoy are mixed very much up front, and Hunter’s guitar and bass often do the work of putting the rhythm right in your face. John Ellis soars on alro sax throughout the disc, but particularly well in “Run For It” and “Mitch Better Have My Bunny.” In the latter, he and'H unter seem to compete for the clearest, most friendly tones. It ends in a tie. Guest vocals are frequent and right on. Norali Jones in particular has the voice o f a goddess. Her warm, womanly approach to “More Than This” brings the Roxy Music song to places that Bryan Ferry pos­

together, as in “Time in Space,” where lines spill out gradually, or rhe languorous “The Tranquility Bomb,” which def­ initely feels very Slowdive to me. The middle part of “Lying in the W ind” is the album’s highlight for me, as husband and wife break into a chorus of “I’m on your side” — so sweetly that I’ve been singing it in my head ever since I first heard it. Between synth strings and piano/keyboard parrs there’s a lot of soaring going on here, though that’s not the whole story. “Precious l ime” is a nice, simplesong that reminds me of Lou Reed’s “Pale Blue Eyes.” I’m also really in favor of the closer, “The Stranger,” which is tweaked quite agreeably with a heavy dose of tremolo on the vocals. Extra bonus points go for a complete lack of self-indulgent wanking. Thank you very much. For spaced-out mood music, The Cush is an ideal record, but in addi­ tion to mood and sound, rhe songs are really good, too. The aural soundscape isn’t a crutch — it’s an art form. Overall, highly recom­ mended.

DEEP SODA

cated to the Burlington area, with a new eponymous CD that is well worth attention. Over the course of 10 tracks, they manage to float through shoegazey landscapes that seem at once mini­ mal and expansive, filling the ear with dreamy vocal lines, acoustic and elec­ tric guitars and flashes of sonic trickery. For a quick reference, think Slowdive meets The Flaming Lips. The Cush draw on dream-pop’s tendency toward spacey and blurry vocals, some up-front and others buried, often soaked in reverb. Ir sounds absolutely delicious. On “Hollow,” the opening track, the words are clear but dreamlike, creat­ ing a wide-open chasm of aural space'when paired with a plain and up-front acoustic guitar. I think the word “hollow” itself is one of the most beautiful words to be sung, as is “shallow,” which crops up as rhe last word of rhe last track on the album. The drum producrion here is great, really big and up-fronr, reminding me a little of the drums on the most recent Flaming Lips record. It’s a great contrast that makes a nice negative space for sim­ ple, understated keyboard and piano lines and gentle vocals to glide through. Some of the best moments come when male and female vocals work

FREYNE AS PRESIDENT? Over 7000 people from as many as 80 countries have been gruesomely murdered, some jumping hand-in-hand out of windows 80 stories high to avoid the heat of fire and gain a few more seconds of life before smashing into the pavement; thousands more were severely burned or injured in other ways; many thousands of children have lost their parents all at once; hundreds of thousands of people have lost or will lose their jobs; tens of billions of dollars in damage have been caused; the stock marker has crashed, taking the Vermont economy on a downward trajectory as well; we are headed now into a deepening recession; and much of our national focus which could have been used for better things will now have to be spent on someform of action against terrorism. Meanwhile, here in Burlington, at Seven Days, Peter Freyne has come up with his inevitableinsight into what’s really impor­ tant at this terrible moment. Somebody yelled at him. We can look forward to the glorious and inspiring sight of Peter looking for weaknesses and faults in our president and glee­ fully and tenderly treasuring each misstep George W. Bush may make, and solemnly informing us, the reading public, of his profound insights. We can all rest assured that an infantile marination of the President of the United States will be a Seven Days priority for the duration of the many years these terrible and sorrowful events will take to play out. From past experience it’s obvious that Peter’s publishers will make no effort to rein him in; the morbid fascination the Burlington public has with his behavior is, after all, highly prof­ itable to them. Just for perspec­ tive, as an exercise, try to imag­ ine Peter Freyne as President. Try to imagine Peter in George W. Bush’s shoes, contemplate the tone he might take, the words he might use to speak to the nation. Try to conjure up the image of a mature, focused, thoughtful Peter Freyne finding the right moves to make at this terrible and serious time. I’ll say no more.

THE REPUBLICAN WING

Express your inner sole

p a g s ;^ !,

The Republican Party in the state of Vermont is moving in two very different directions. On the one hand are the so-called moderate Republicans, who see the status quo and a more bland approach to sensitive issues as the means of regaining the gov­ ernor’s office. On the other hand is an influential assortment of similar-thinking citizens, coalesc­ ing around some basic and tradi­ tional themes; among those

themes are smaller, limited gov­ ernment, traditional moral val­ ues, strict Constitutional inter­ pretation, property rights, school choice and, at least in national politics, a strong defense. It also includes working-class men and women who feel more at home voting Republican than Demo­ crat, since the Democrat Party veered far to the left over the last few decades. The National Federation of. Republican Assemblies has aptly named this latter group the Republican Wing of the Republican Party, for its tenets have historically been the allure of the Grand Old Party. In short, it is made up of individu­ als who gave Ronald Reagan enormous victories in two presi­ dential elections and who, here in Vermont, put Republicans in charge of the House for the first time in many years. While it is still early in the process, the question is, to what extent will the Republican Wing exert itself as a force in state politics this coming year? Writing in a recent issue of Vermont Business M agazine, lib­ eral columnist Peter Freyne posited the notion that conserva­ tives have been left out of the Republican Party in Vermont, and cites as proof the two “front­ runners” for governor, State Treasurer Jim Douglas and for­ mer Agency of Human Services Secretary Cornelius Hogan. The two men, states Freyne, “both appear to realize [that] success will depend on winning the middle” and both men are “leav­ ing the right-wing of the party twirling in the wind.” Freyne may be right, although his per­ sonal slaps at Ruth Dwyer and myopic view of recent elections indicate he may have more of an agenda than simply giving gener­ ous advice to conservatives. Some of the Republican lead­ ership in the state seems to be following Freyne’s advice, or, at leasts giving him plenty of ammunition to make his claims. In a recent publication put out by the party, one of the year’s biggest Republican victories was totally ignored under a section of the publication entitled, “Pro Family.” Parental Notification, a common-sense piece of legisla­ tion supported by 72 percent of Vermonters and one that passed overwhelmingly in the House with bi-partisan support, never even was mentioned in the party’s summation of its legisla­ tive accomplishments. It seems the absence was designed to tell a certain segment of the Republican faithful that social or “hot button” issues are not a high priority, but attaining and retaining power is. Consider that the two “front­ runners” for governor never dis­ cuss issues designed to attract the Republican Wing of the party. If they do talk about the big issues, Act 60, Parental Notification or Civil Unions, it usually amounts to-whispers and inaudible, wimpy concessions designed to coddle favor with the many groups that make up the Republican Wing and who are still a force in Vermont politics, especially primaries.

As the field of contenders narrows in the race for governor, many conservative citizens in both parties will be watching to see if a leader emerges who is not afraid to address vital issues of concern to them, not just to ” ay lip service, but because cer­ tain issues need to be addressed in a state still highly polarized Ignoring the Republican Wing of the Party comes at great peri! to the party leadership and will guarantee a Democratic sweep of the governor and lieutenant gov­ ernor elections. The traditional forces will work to enhance their position in the House and Senate, understanding that their best hope to be heard, inside of their own party, is in the halls of power. To the extent the Republican Wing of the Republican Party can find a credible voice for its statewide ambitions, and to the extent that the Wing does not dissipate its energy by running in all directions, it will remain a force to be reckoned with and could possibly even produce another governor’s primary vic­ tory. That is an unpalatable sce­ nario for the divided Republican leadership in Montpelier. Some are convinced the traditional folks have no other place to go, while others understand that the Republican Wing will assert itself into the political process, as it has in the past two elections... The consideration for the , leadership of the party is whether the Republican Wing of the Republican Party comes to the 2 0 0 2 elections as a respected member of the tamilv or as an orphan willing to put principle above politics, even if Vermont has two more years of a Demo­ crat governor. — Sean McKeon Sean McKeon was a Republican candidate for State Senate from Windham Countv.

lexandra Bottinellis two previous solo shows at the Doll-Anstadt Gallery consist­ ed of oil collage and encaustic pieces only. In collage, she pulled together disparate images and transformed them into subtly unified state­ ments. In paint, Bottinelli manipulated hues and surface qualities to reinforce the collaged narra­ tives and to give them an abstract context. Bottinellis third exhibition is now on view at the gallery, and it includes a successful loray into sculpture, as well as other kinds of two-dimensional work. All of Bottinellis pieces are untitled, with subti­ tles in parentheses. In two of the 1 5 paintings, Bottinelli has borrowed from John Singer Sargent’s “The Daughters of Edward Darley Boit” — a por­ trait of four sisters painted in 1882. Bottinelli has cut out and transformed the youngest girls of that piece into ghosts. Raised letters spell out “life and death” in “Untitled (life and death)” over a col­ laged image of a man dying in a bed. A grave digger stands nearby, and the Boit child — a girl of about three — seems to float above the Untitled (breathing in I calm my body), by Alexandra Bottinelli. bed. But the piece is. not gloomy. Bottinelli uses that attract the viewers eye. bright, semi-transparent yellows and warm, Upon first examination, Bottinellis three uplifting hues that suggest a moment of transfor­ sculptures seem to be a dramatic departure from mation rather than of destruction. the paintings. But they are assemblages made of “Untitled (cemeteries)” is organized around found wood, just as the collages are made up of white, and divided into a grid of six squares.

BANDITS** Is there a more on-again, off-again guy in Hollywood than Barry Levinson? For every really fine film — and he’s made his share ( W a g T h e D o g , T i n M e n , T h e N a t u r a l , R a i n M a n ) — the director’s been responsible for movie work that’s monumentally forgettable (S p h e r e , J i m m y H o lly w o o d , D is c lo s u r e ). Levinson’s 1992 Toys ranks as one of the dumbest, most disorganized and dis­ posable motion pictures ever made. B a n d i t s finds him in disposable mode once more. Sort of a dumbed-down update of B u t c h C a s s id y a n d T h e S u n d a n c e K id , the picture stars Bruce Willis and Billy Bob Thornton as a couple of cuddly bank robbers known far and wide as “The Sleepover Bandits” due to their trademark m.o. The evening before a heist, the two knock on the door of the bank’s manager, spend the night in his or her home and then tag along when the bank is opened for business first thing in the morning prior to the arrival of customers and security per­ sonnel. The idea is the audience is supposed to think OK, these two are criminals, but they’re so quirky and nonviolent you’ve got to love them anyway. I didn’t say it was a bright idea. As given shape by Harley Peyton’s self-conscious, slapdash script, it turns out, in fact, to be a woefully boneheaded one. Willis’ character is brawny, impulsive and good with women. Thornton’s is scrawny, compul­ sive and good with women. At least with the one female character of consequence in the film. Cate Blanchett turns up about a third the way through

as a by-the-numbers bored housewife who decides one day that embarking on a crime spree with multiple sex partners is just what she needs to put the pep back in her step. Willis and Thornton both fall in love with her and she with them a la Butch and Sundance but, while you might reason­ ably expect this to make matters more complicat­ ed, the remarkable thing is that it winds up only making them more dull. So underwritten is the fine actress’ role that it has the effect of a kind of narrative black hole. Every time the robbing stops and the romancing starts, what little life the movie has is immediately sucked out of it. Big budget productions just don’t get more small time than this. Levinson directs as though * unable to decide whether he wants to make a heist thriller, a buddy film, an action saga or a romantic comedy and, as a result, succeeds in making none of them. Instead, B a n d i t s proves a carelessly uneven amalgam of ho-hum setups and low-inter­ est payoffs. The story is told in flashback. The manner in which the device is handled here is unusually disruptive and borderline annoying. The finale’s big surprise, on the other hand, is nothing short of insulting. To be fair, there are a few moments of humor, most provided by Thornton, whose character is a walking clearinghouse of phobias and eccentrici­ ties. He evokes a cerebral Don Knotts on Valium. Had the film focused on him, there might have been hope. As it never comes into focus at all, Levinson’s latest proves a bank error decidedly not in the audience’s favor. ®

bearing up Wild bears are often misunderstood, according to a nationally-recognized ursine expert Lynn Rogers. Known as “the Jane Goodall of black bears,” the wildlife research biologist has spent more than three decades researching the crea­ tures in northern Minnesota. Appearances on the Discovery Channel, “National Geographic Explorer,” Animal Planet and the PBS “Nature” show have further enhanced his repu­ tation. So has following hibernating bears into their dens. “The black bear story is a lot like the gorilla story,” Lynn told Back C ountry View. “An ani­ mal that we thought was extremely dangerous turned out to be mostly gentle and timid when we studied them.” Rogers will present an evening slide show, then lead a field trip the following day in the Wolfrun wildlife preserve. Keeping Track, a Huntington nonprofit, spon­ sors the event and founder Sue Morse will guide the group, which is limited to 15 people. “There’s a 99 percent chance we won’t see any bears but we’ll probably notice scratch marks on trees and other evidence of their activities,” explains,^ecutive director Lars Botzojorns. “They’re very busy this time of year, looking for food about 2 0 hours a day to prepare for hibernation.” They’d probably love the campfire dinner that participants will enjoy after the trek, but “with a group that size, bears won’t want to come near.” Slide show with Lynn Rogers.

now uth may consider Paul McCartney a of early music, but the Four Nations looks to the likes of Haydn, Beethoven and C.RE. Bach to convey the culture of another time. The New York-based quintet uses period instruments — flute, violin, viola, cello and fortepiano — in performanc­ es that reflect classical work dating as far back as the late Renaissance. Expect their upcoming Lane Series concert to be unapologetically “yesterday.”

dewey or die

eye of the beholder

Burlington native John Dewey was a progressive thinker and educational theorist whose'lessons stressed respect for the individual within a democratic society. At Goddard College in Plainfield, you can still see his ideas in academic action. The 1879 University of Vermont graduate had plenty to say about other things, too — like mod­ ern science. Local artist-teacher Frank Gonzalez offers a short lesson on Deweys birthday before a Church Street parade.

When three characters tangle about the true value of an expensive white-on-white painting, modernist minimal­ ism gets a thorough once-over. A rt, by Yasmina Reza, is a Tony Award-winning play that explores the vicissitudes of friendship with what the Christian Science M onitor called “a dazzling array of lan­ guage.” Under the direction of Beatrice Terry, the comedy features Vermont Stage artistic director Mark Nash, Paul Molnar and Marc Carver. But the real star of the show is a blank canvas. . .

Deepa Raghavan is a leading performer in the supersubtle Vazhuvoor school of Bharatanatyam. To learn her craft, she was a “disciple” to a master mover in Southern India. An Oregon resident now, Raghavan has traveled the globe sharing her craft. Her show is the closest any of us are likely to get to the subconti­ nent these days. . .

Consideration of Richmond’s request for Categorical Exclusion included a review of the following documents:

October 17,2001

Facilities Plan entitled “ Report: Wastewater Treatment Facility Upgrade Evaluation, Prepared for Town of Richmond, Vermont", dated July 2001, by Hoyle, Tanner & Associates, Inc. Draft Environmental Information Document enti­ tled “ Engineering Evaluation of the Richmond Wastewater Treatment Facility” , dated September 1998, by Webster-Martin, Inc, of South Burlington, Vermont. Facilities Plan entitled “ Final Report: Engineering Evaluation of the Richmond Wastewater Treatment Facility", dated May 1997, by Webster-Martin, Inc. Appendices entitled “Attachments to Final Report: Engineering Evaluation of the Richmond Wastewater Treatment Facility” , dated May 1997, by Webster-Martin, Inc. Upon completion of its inde­ pendent evaluation, the Department has determined that the proposed project meets the criteria for issuance of a Categorical Exclusion. Specifically, the project will not increase the currently permitted flow (hydraulic) capacity of the, treatment facility, and it will not increase the design organic treatment capacity (equiva-. lent population served). The project will not add a new discharge of treated wastewater to surface waters or groundwater, and it will not increase permitted effluent pollutant loadings (pounds per day) to the Winooski River. A project is ineligible for Categorical Exclusion if it increases hydraulic capacity by more than 20 percent, or if it increases equivalent popula­ tion served by 30 percent or greater, or if it creates a new discharge or substantially increases pollutant loadings. Further, the project does not involve (create) serious local or environmental issues, or meet any of the criteria that would result in denial of an Exclusion. Further information on the project and this Determination is available for inspection at the follow­ ing locations: Town of Richmond, Town Administrator’s Office, Bridge Street, P.O.
