Should the State Sell its Lands to a Central Oregon Golf Resort? Weigh In. In the 15+ years that Central Oregonians have been hearing about the development of Thornburgh Resort near Cline Buttes, much has been said, much debated. Parts of the story seem like a done deal.

As was outlined in an enlightening piece by OPB this week, to ensure Thornburgh gets the approximately 6 million daily gallons of water it’s estimated it will need for three golf courses, multiple lakes and homes that start at over 3,000 square feet, the resort has already purchased a portion of the rights from Brooks Resources’ Tree Farm development. The Tree Farm is a high-end development on the west side of Bend where its large homes didn’t need their water for the original intended purpose: farming. When a wealthy homeowner doesn’t need their irrigation water right, they’re within their rights under Oregon’s archaic water allotment rules to sell it regardless of its original intended use. But that’s just part of the story.

Currently, the Department of State Lands is trying to determine whether to sell some 400 acres of land at Cline Buttes to Thornburgh to help the resort expand. When the state sells lands like this, the money goes into the Common School Fund, where it’s shared among Oregon’s public schools. For the loss of the precious resources that come with that land, the thought is, at least the kids get something, right?

But as some watchdogs, including Nunzie Gould and Central Oregon LandWatch have pointed out, in this case, the shorter-term gains may not be worth what is lost. A swath of 400 acres of undeveloped land that serves as a refuge for wildlife and a recreation point for the public between Redmond and Bend would instead become the private playground of a destination resort—albeit with a few assumed “easement” points for ATVs, pedestrians and equestrians.

What’s more, as LandWatch noted,

the land’s estimated value of roughly $912,000 is not much, compared to the $2.2 billion already in the Common School Fund, which generates investment revenue each year.

“This $912,000 from the potential land sale is nominal when compared to the overall Common School Fund (which distributes less than 4% annually). With the one-time monetary benefit to the Common School Fund, it is our firm belief that this land should remain public, given the widespread concern over public access and natural resources,” LandWatch argued.

The third party that conducted an appraisal of the Cline Buttes tract—six tax lots in total found that the “highest and best use”—a criteria the DSL must factor into its decision—to be: “…the highest and best use of tax lots 5101, 5102, 5103, 5104, and 5200 is as an unbuildable recreational resource with limited seasonal access. Although tax lot 5300 has similar site characteristics, the appraisal indicated the highest and best use for tax lot 5300 is as an unbuildable recreational resource and potentially as a privacy buffer for adjoining lots located within Eagle Crest.”

Many have already weighed in with the Department of State Lands about their opposition to this sale. The DSL is expected to make its decision Aug. 9—but before that, it still has an open comment period, open through July 29.

People can submit a comment online, using the transaction number: 63509LS for the Cline Buttes Tract.

It’s going to seem like a win if the state decides not to sell the Cline Buttes land—and it will be. But in the grand scheme of things, Central Oregon’s groundwater and surface water resources are still in big trouble. In the long term, we hope for a day when water resources are treated with more conservation in mind. In the short term, shutting down this sale is a battle for the preservation of public resources and wild lands that can be won right now.

GUEST OPINION: DOES FOSSIL GAS REALLY HAVE A FUTURE?

directed toward installation of electric heat pumps for cooling and heating. The argument about lack of affordability for low-income communities is being refuted. Our PUC, in considering the rising cost of natural gas, should also consider the rising cost of climate adaptation.

The gas industry excels at scare tactics. How many times have we heard that our economy will implode if we reduce fossil fuel use? Clean energy accounts for 55% of all energy sector jobs in Oregon, 35 times more than fossil fuels (Environmental Entrepreneurs, 2020 report). Fossil fuels are dead. Disinformation from the gas industry won’t change this.

We cannot count on the fossil fuel industry to do the right thing. It will continue to push “clean renewable natural gas” (a.k.a. methane) and carbon capture, which are far from proven technologies. It will ask for yet another research study, delaying the inevitable and wasting taxpayer money. I urge the PUC to act for our communities to clean up outdoor air, improve indoor air quality, lower costs and help the planet. We can do all of this by simply stopping the use of fossil gas.

—Diane Hodiak is the executive director of 350 Deschutes, a nonprofit organization doing climate action, education & policy.

AN INVESTMENT FOR REDMOND There will be a vote in November to have a new recreation center built here in Redmond. I am an advocate for this and it is of the utmost importance that it passes. Our children need and deserve a safe place where they can learn life skills while at the same time strengthening their minds and bodies.

Recreation centers have a positive impact on our communities. It’s a place where kids can go to participate in organized activities or even do homework.

A quality recreation center would be an asset to our community and in these trying

times we cannot afford to ignore the benefits of building one. It is long overdue.

Recreation centers provide opportunity for education; it creates an active and healthy community, it increases property value and they make great communities whole. Recreation centers help create leaders in our communities and this is what we want. Keep this in mind, It’s Easier to Build STRONG CHILDREN than to repair broken men.

We spend millions of dollars on infrastructure and new equipment year after year which is necessary. Now we need to focus on investing in our children as well as their safety and welfare.

It doesn’t matter if you have kids or not.

We are investing in the future of Redmond, Oregon. What’s in it for you is a Great City with a great community. We must begin with the end in sight. This is vision, this is the future.

I am asking all of you to please invest in the future of the children by voting for a new recreation center. This is weighing heavy on my heart because this may be our last opportunity to get this passed. We must look at this as a capital investment that we should not and cannot afford to ignore. Please share this with your friends and neighbors and ask them to support this as well. November is close and we don’t have much time to get the word out. We have to save all of the children because they are our future and this is how we can begin to do this.

If there is ever an investment that we need to make, this is it. I’d rather invest in a recreation center then a new jail.

Thank you, Redmond.

—Clifford Evelyn, Redmond city councilor

SPOTTED FROGS & SACRIFICE Saving the Oregon Spotted Frog seems a worthy human endeavor and one we should all get behind. But what if saving the frog requires more than simply drying up several thousand acres of prime farmland in Jefferson County?

What if the frog really needs much more river margin habitat along the Deschutes River to fully thrive and rebuild population numbers? What if some of the area needed includes parts of Sunriver and the Old Mill District? What if, in the end, the spotted frog cannot be saved because bull frog predation pressure and a warming climate trend continue to increase?

Bonus Haiku: Save the Spotted Frog!

Who sacrifices the most?

Mill District? Sunriver?

Growing numbers of scientists, health care workers and environmentalists are calling to stop fossil gas. Oregon’s Public Utilities Commission, however, seems to be following the gas industry’s playbook. Will it continue allowing the gas industry to subsidize installation of dangerous, unhealthy fossil gas infrastructure? More than ever, we need to stop using fossil gas and renewable natural gas. We’re close to the point of catastrophic climate change and we need to be on an accelerated emission reduction pathway. But fossil fuel lobbyists and public relations pros are promoting fossil fuels and spinning misinformation to justify it. The PUC needs to wake up and do what’s right for Oregonians. The gas industry’s narrative will not provide the emission reductions we urgently need.

“Natural” gas is not clean. It is methane, a gas with 84 times the global warming potential of carbon dioxide over a 20-year timeframe. Even worse, pipelines that carry it frequently leak. Gas companies are slow to fix these leaks, dramatically increasing emissions. The more gas infrastructure we build or put into homes, the more this leakage will grow. And retrofitting after the fact is significantly more expensive than simply avoiding installation from the start.

An alarming Stanford study showed that gas stoves in our homes emit toxic pollution even when turned off! (Environmental Science and Technology, 2022).

The sooner we stop installing new gas infrastructure and hookups, the better. Close to 76 U.S. cities understand the risks and are advancing electrification goals that restrict the use of fossil gas. Reasons include climate, cost, health and safety. Electricity is not subject to the dangerous swings in natural gas prices experienced by many Oregon households. Millions of federal and State of Oregon dollars are now being

Central Oregon battles three-figure temperatures, with average temperatures above 100 all week long

By Jack Harvel Courtesy of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

C

entral Oregon was projected to have several days of high heat, exceeding 100 degrees Fahrenheit Tuesday through Saturday. With last year’s heat dome fresh in the minds of Oregonians, local governments are urging people to take precautions.

On July 26 Oregon Gov. Kate Brown declared a state of emergency for 26 Oregon counties through July 31.

The order directs the Oregon Department of Emergency Management to coordinate with statewide agencies and respond to disaster areas in protection of lives, property and the environment.

“With many parts of Oregon facing a high heat wave, it is critical that every level of government has the resources they need to help keep Oregonians safe and healthy,” Brown stated in a press release. “I encourage everyone to take proactive steps to keep themselves and their families safe, including drinking plenty of fluids, taking advantage of cooling centers, and checking in on neighbors, friends, and loved ones.”

Last year’s fatal heat dome was the deadliest weather event in Canadian history, killing over 800 people in western Canada. It was also responsible for the deaths of nearly 200 people across Washington and Oregon. Most of the deaths in Oregon were in Multnomah County, but two Bend residents experiencing homelessness also passed away during the heat wave.

This year the Oregon Health Authority is distributing air conditioning units to the most at-risk individuals. It delivered 500 the weekend prior to the heat wave and is expected to procure 3,000 over the summer.

“Climate change has made extreme heat events the rule, not the exception, during Oregon’s summer months,” said OHA Director Patrick Allen in a press release. “These air conditioning units are a necessary step for building resilience to this health threat, particularly for those most vulnerable to heat exhaustion, heat stroke and death.”

Still, with the temps reaching heights at a more predicted time, officials are hopeful that the region won’t see quite the same extremes this year.

“Last year was record-breaking—that was at the end of June. Typically, we see our hottest temperatures in July or late August, so we’re not looking at temperatures as warm as last year,” said Jim Smith, meteorologist with the National Weather Service office in Pendleton.

Oregon’s highest recorded temperature happened during last year’s heat wave, when it reached 119 degrees north of Madras. This week’s heat wave is expected to hover around 105 degrees during the day.

The cooling effect overnight is expected to be minimal.

“It’s important to note that overnight temperatures, the recovery is not as good as normal. The low temperatures are only 60s and even maybe around the lower 70s Wednesday and Thursday night, so it’s not quite getting as cool,” Smith said.

Older people living alone, people in multifamily buildings and people experiencing houselessness were disproportionately killed or hospitalized because of the heat last year. Deschutes County encouraged people to check on elderly neighbors and family members twice a day. Local nonprofits specializing in houselessness are hosting cooling shelters to keep people cool.

In Bend, the Shepherd’s House shelter on Second Street is open from 11am–6pm at least through Friday. The Masonic Hall on Eighth Street is open from

A heatmap shows a significant amount of Oregon can expect high temperatures this week.

The City of Bend set up this misting tent on Hunnell Road north of town.

9am-1pm, and a mister tent is also set up on Hunnell Road, where many people park RVs. In Redmond, Shepherd’s House also invites people to cool down at Grace Gate Church. A mister tent is also set up on 17th Street in Redmond.

“When it gets really hot, we see a spike in the number of people that access our services,” said David

Notari, director of development at Shepherd’s House Ministries. “We’ve seen that for the last eight-plus years that we’ve done sheltering in the winter, and then at some specialty times in the summers where we opened up heat sheltering.”

Floater Drowns in Whitewater Park

A death occurred at Bend’s Whitewater Park, the park’s second of all time — and this year

oseph Clarence Torkelson died on Friday, July 22, one day after being recovered from Bend’s Whitewater Park, officials said.

Torkelson started the float upstream with a roommate on July 21, according to the Bend Police Department. From the footbridge adjacent to Colorado Avenue, passersby spotted the 56-year-old unresponsive in the park’s middle passage, upstream from the surf wave. They asked a nearby kayaker to pull him out and by 2:20 pm he was out of the water and was given CPR before the police and fire department arrived, who then continued conducting CPR. The area Torkelson was found is off-limits for floaters.

“Instead of staying to the left to ride through the gentle rapids at Colorado Avenue, Torkelson somehow ended up on the wrong side of the buoys and was sucked under and through the dam. Shortly thereafter, Torkelson was found and pulled from the river,” the Bend Police Department wrote in a press release.

The Whitewater Park remained open throughout the incident, though the Colorado Avenue Bridge was briefly closed. Torkelson is the second person to die at Bend’s Whitewater Park since April. In April, 17-yearold surfer Ben Murphy drowned after his foot became stuck on an underwater gate that controls the park’s surf wave.

A 56-year-old man drowned in Bend’s Whitewater Park, the second death at the park this year. The park opened in 2015.

Camping Code Continues

Regulations on campsites on City property could be put in place as early as October

By Jack Harvel

T

he Bend City Council continued its efforts to manage campsites in public right of ways at its regular meeting on July 20. Over a month prior the City Council directed staff to establish a work group to tackle the time, place and manner restrictions that could be placed on campsites on City property; the decision at its most recent regular meeting reversed course and instead opted for a faster option that skips over the lengthier option of creating a work group.

The policy would have to comply with Martin v.

Boise, a federal case whose ruling means municipalities within the 9th Circuit cannot cite people for camping in a right of way if they have no other place to go.

The City can’t enact a broad camping ban, but can limit when, where and how people are allowed to camp if an individual camper can access shelter. This could mean restricting daytime camping, length of stay, the areas people can camp, structure types, camp sizes and regulations around untidy campsites.

Bend’s only mechanism to evict a campsite requires certain benchmarks around fire hazards, trash, calls for police service and impeding roadways be met before the campsite can be declared unsafe and moved. The timeline the City Council approved expects a first draft in August, which then has a review process with stakeholders participating in a roundtable — replacing

the working group — and a public community feedback meeting.

Codes could be finalized as early as October, though staff members said the timeline is optimistic and could change if more meetings are added as the process plays out. If the City appointed a work group like planned, its earliest implementation of the policy wouldn’t take place until December.

A standing work session on managed camp codes is expected to be discussed at every City Council work session until it’s finished. The first open house Q&A is expected in August and a meeting seeking community feedback is expected in September.

Efficient Electricity?

The City of Bend invites locals to weigh in on a home energy score system for houses on the market

By Jack Harvel

B

end is hosting a community Q&A on its potential Home Energy Score Program, which the City’s Community Climate Action Plan listed as a priority in its efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Bend by 40% by 2030 and 70% by 2050.

The program requires that all homes listed for sale obtain a home energy score, a U.S. Department of Energy tool that ranks the efficiency of residences on a scale of 1-10. The score seeks to strip occupant behavior from the equation and focus strictly on efficiency.

It typically costs between $150-300, but if the program is implemented, some assistance would be available for sellers who’ve been deemed eligible for other low-income assistance programs offered by the City. All home sellers or their

realtors would be required to share the energy scorecard with potential buyers.

The City hopes knowing what specifically may be draining energy could encourage home improvements, as well as giving someone buying a home information they would otherwise not be aware of. Other Oregon municipalities, including Portland, Hillsboro and Milwaukie, have already implemented a mandatory home energy score program.

Bend’s Q&A on the program will be hosted on Aug. 1 at 3pm, in the Council Chambers at City Hall. It will be a hybrid meeting, with people able to give input in-person, over video conferencing or by emailing senior management analyst Cassie Lacy at clacy@bendoregon.gov.

Sin poder soportar el calor

El Centro de Oregon batalla con temperaturas de seis dígitos, con temperaturas promedio de más de 100 grados durante toda la semana

9

S

e proyectó que el Centro de Oregon pasaría varios días con temperaturas altas, sobrepasando los 100 grados Fahrenheit de martes a sábado. Con la cúpula de calor del año pasado, los gobiernos locales están exhortando a la gente a tomar precauciones.

La cúpula de calor fatal del año pasado fue la temporada de calor más mortal en la historia de Canadá, matando a más de 800 personas en el oeste de Canadá y siendo responsable por la muerte de casi 200 personas en Washington y Oregon.

La mayoría de las muertes en Oregon se presentaron en el condado de Multnomah, pero dos habitantes de Bend que se encontraban sin hogar también fallecieron debido al calor.

Aún así, con las temperaturas altas en un momento previsto, autoridades

esperan que la zona no llegue a tal extremo este año.

“El año pasado se registraron temperaturas récord a finales de junio. Generalmente, vemos las temperaturas más altas en julio o a finales de agosto, así que estamos viendo que no hace tanto calor como el año pasado,” dijo Jim Smith, meteorólogo del Servicio Meteorológico Nacional en Pendleton.

La temperatura más alta registrada en Oregon se presentó el año pasado durante la ola de calor, cuando alcanzó los 119 grados al norte de Madras. Se espera que la ola de calor de esta semana ande alrededor de los 105 grados durante el día. Se piensa que durante la noche refrescará muy poco.

“Es importante tener en cuenta que las temperaturas por la noche no son

tan buenas comparado a lo normal. Las bajas temperaturas son tan solo de 60 grados y tal vez alrededor de los 70 grados la noche del miércoles y jueves, así que no se pondrá tan fresco, dijo Smith.

Las personas mayores que vivían solas, la gente en centros habitacionales multifamiliares y las personas sin hogar murieron desproporcionadamente y fueron hospitalizadas el año pasado debido al calor. El condado de Deschutes exhorto a la gente a que esté al pendiente de sus vecinos ancianos y de sus familiares un par de veces al día.

Las organizaciones sin fines de lucro locales especializadas en las personas sin hogar están teniendo albergues para mantener frescas a las personas.

En Bend, el albergue de Shepherd’s House en la calle 2 (Second Street)

está abierto de 11am-6pm hasta el día viernes. Mosanic Hall, localizado sobre la calle 8, está abierto de 9am a 1pm y una carpa se encuentra disponible sobre la calle Hunnell Rd. En Redmond, Shepherd’s House también permitirá que la gente se refresque dentro de la iglesia Grace Gate y una carpa estará ubicada sobre la calle 17.

“Cuando hace mucho calor, vemos un aumento en el número de personas que requieren de nuestros servicios,” dijo David Notari, Director de Desarrollo de los Ministerios de Shepherd’s House. “Hemos visto que durante los últimos 8 años o más hemos albergado a gente durante el invierno y que en algunas ocasiones especiales durante los veranos hemos abierto el albergue para proteger a la gente del calor.”

My Time with Tom

As the fifth anniversary of Tom Petty’s death approaches, a former pro ski racer recalls his adventures with the legendary singer

Back in the day, author Dan Mooney, left, poses with KATT-FM Program Director Mike Bailey, the man himself — Tom Petty — and two unidentified men.

Breakdown: Dedicated to the memory of Tom Petty

T

he roots of this story go back long before I met Tom Petty or even knew who he was. Those roots are the path we choose in life. In the years 1973-1978 I was a professional ski racer on Bob Beattie’s World Pro Ski Tour, along with several good friends who had left the U.S. Ski Team to race pro, including Ken Corrock and Terry and Tyler Palmer. We were good ski racers, young and with few social skills. God Bless Bob Beattie. He took us under his big wings and mentored us on how to act like professional athletes: Don’t be rude or arrogant, be polite, tip big in restaurants and people will be grateful and look at you as a professional.

Every Friday before a race we had a racer meeting to go over any problems. Once those issues were resolved, Beattie gave us a pep talk which always emphasized that every Friday night there was a cocktail party for sponsors and guests. It was important that racers appeared at these parties to meet sponsors face to face, so we could promote ourselves and the tour to the sponsors.

We met too many interesting people to list, but one year during the off season while living in Squaw Valley, California, I met a group of guys in the business of promoting bands. They included Johnny Barbis and his brother Dino, Gary Davis and Burt Stein. In time, they also became good friends with my ski buddies. They came to some of our ski races and gave us tickets and

sometimes backstage passes to concerts. It was really cool!

In the spring of 1976, after the ski season had ended, Kenny Corrock and I were driving from Sun Valley, Idaho, to San Francisco to spend some time with Johnny Barbis. Somewhere between Elko and Winnemucca, Nevada, on Interstate 80, smoking a big, fat joint— because that’s what you do driving through Nevada, I was watching the scenery pass by and daydreaming when I said to Kenny, “You know, this July 4th is our country’s bicentennial birthday. Two-hundred years!

That’s a pretty big deal. I bet there is going to be a lot of cool stuff going on to commemorate the bicentennial. We should do something, too.”

“Ya,” Corrock said, “that is a big deal. We should do something big. What do you think we should do?”

I replied, “I don’t know. It’s summer, July 4th, maybe some kind of party.”

“Something outside?” he said. “Yeah, that sounds good. Maybe a big BBQ with a band?”

I said, “An outdoor concert! We know all these record people guys. We should use them to get a band.”

So, an idea was born.

As we drove through Nevada and into California, we put together a plan to put on a July 4th concert in Sun Valley. Neither Corrock nor I had ever put on a concert before.

By the time we reached San Francisco we had decided Commander Cody would be the perfect headliner.

We told promoter Johnny Barbis of our plan and asked him if he knew Commander Cody and could he ‘hook us up’ with him. He said, “Yeah, I can call him for you.”

That was when we learned his real name was George Frayne and that he lived in Stinson Beach. We went to his house that afternoon and put the deal together. My friendship with Barbis strengthened and we discussed the possibilities of me finding a job doing promotion for a record company when I retired from ski racing.

Corrock and I wound up doing four concerts in Idaho.

Life as a promoter In February 1978 I retired from ski racing. By that time Barbis and a group of his associates were running ABC Records. I called him and asked if there were any opportunities with ABC. He told me to call Gary Davis IMMEDIATELY. I called Gary, nicknamed “Big Red” because he was 6’4" and had red hair, who asked where I was. I told him I was in Colorado. He asked if I could catch a plane and be in his office by noon the next day, which I did. We knew each other, so there was no idle chit-chat.

“How do you feel about retiring from ski racing?” he asked.

“It’s tough,” I replied. “Ski racing has been my life, but I always knew this day would come. I’m OK with it and ready to move on.”

Red asked, “You want to do promotion or sales?

Wait, I’ll answer that for you. You want to do promotion.” (Cont. on page 13)

“Yeah, definitely promotion.” Red is looking me over and not saying a thing. I am sure he is thinking, “Should I offer this guy a job or get him out of here now and save us both a lot of grief down the road? Jesus, Barbis sends me a damn ski racer that knows nothing about the record business.” He sat there a little while, lets out a kind of sigh and says, “I have one opening in Dallas, Texas, for a promotion manager. When can you be there?”

I’m thinking, Texas? I’ve never even been to Texas. I replied, “Well, I need to go back to Sun Valley, do a little skiing, chill with my bros. I could be there around the end of April, first of May.” Gary leans forward on his desk, clasps his hands together and says, “Look, Moon Dog, I’ve got 20 guys standing outside my office door that would kill for this job. You’ve got one chance here. You take this job and I want you in Dallas in 48 hours.” So…..48 hours later, as I was looking out the window of a jet plane on the final approach to Dallas-Fort Worth Airport, I was asking myself, “What the f*ck have I gotten myself into?!

I’ve never even been to Texas.”

In Dallas I was met by the person whose job I was taking over, Dan Percell, a really nice guy who helped me a lot by introducing me to all the radio people. My job was to get radio stations to play ABC records in north Texas and Oklahoma. I realized immediately I was in way over my head and had nothing in common with these people. When someone found out I was a skier they would ask, “Oh, really, what kind of water skiing did you do?” I absolutely did not fit in.

After the third day I was on my own and it got worse.

I was ready to quit after a week, but I talked myself out of it and convinced myself to give it at least a month.

One day I was at a radio station waiting to see the program director when I struck up a conversation with Jeff Hackett, a promoter for Chrysalis Records (Moody Blues, Blondie, Nick Gilder). He asked me how I was doing. “Honestly,” I replied, “I am struggling.” I needed a place to live and I didn’t know anyone in Dallas.

I ran into him a few more times at radio stations and one day he said, “Look, I may regret this, but I am single, and own a house and have a bedroom that I would like to rent out!”

I moved in with Hackett, who was a Dallas native, knew EVERYBODY and was a real pro in the music business. Life quickly began to be better, but I was still struggling. One day Hackett said to me, “Moondog, I like you and I want to see you succeed at this and this is what I think you should do: Every month you need to take a week or two and go see all your stations in your secondary market. You need to get to these people, because ultimately they are your bread and butter.

They will play records for you and your majors will pick up on that and start playing your records for you, too.

I had stations in Midland, Odessa, Killeen, Fort Worth, Tulsa, Oklahoma City and East Texas. So, every month I would go on the road for a week, sometimes two, visiting these stations and promoting ABC Records. After a while I was seeing real progress. Jeff was right. Lo and behold, I woke up one day and realized I had been in Dallas for over six months. I had been thrown in with the wolves and survived and was feeling pretty good about it.

Tom Petty arrives One day in 1979 Johnny Barbis calls to tell me that Tom Petty is coming to Oklahoma City for a concert.

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers were just beginning their career and neither their self-titled first album, or second album, “You’re Gonna Get It” had boosted Petty’s career as much as Petty and ABC Records hoped it would. His third album, “Damn the Torpedoes,” was going to be released a week before the Oklahoma City concert. Barbis made it perfectly clear that this was a critical time and we needed to pull out all the stops.

The late Tom Petty rips it up in concert earlier in his career.

He said, “Moondog, I cannot impress on you how big this is. We cannot afford to drop the ball. You need to contact all the pertinent FM stations. There are five of them. Do not take ‘no’ for an answer. Don’t worry about Tom. He will be available for interviews. I want you to rent a limo to drive him around to these interviews. Then you need to rent a convention or party room at the Hilton Hotel for an after-concert party.

Make sure you hire a DJ, a good one. A bar with real liquor, not just beer and wine. The Hilton can do the bar for you and help find a DJ. Make sure every program director, station manager, sales manager, top disc jockeys, record store managers and sales people get two complementary tickets to the concert and an invitation to the party. Make sure that during the party the DJ sprinkles enough Tom Petty music to make an impact, but don’t smother the guests with his music.

Get to work on this now, and, Moondog, don’t f*ck this up. This is huge. The show is in two weeks.”

I called all the radio stations in Oklahoma City right away. A couple of them gave me some resistance and didn’t think Petty was that big or deserved an on-air interview. I dug in my heels and forced them to agree.

The rest was easy. I reserved a limo, arranged everything with the Hilton and gave Barbis the schedule for the radio interviews. He assured me that Petty would be available and cooperative. I figured I had done everything I could do from Dallas.

The concert was on Friday, so on Wednesday I flew to Oklahoma City to make sure everything was in place. One of the fun things about being a promotion manager for a major record label is being able to hand out free tickets to a concert and an invitation to a post-concert party. Johnny told me to go big on this one, and I had a lot of tickets. I gave them to everyone, even the receptionist at the radio station. I hit all the major record stores that sell the records that radio stations play. I convinced one record store to put on its marquee, “Oklahoma City Welcomes Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers Friday night.” Early Thursday evening I went to Petty’s hotel and met his road manager. We went over the interview schedule and I told him I’d be at the hotel at 9 am the next morning. He said, “Fine. Tom will be ready.” I was about to spend some quality time with Tom Petty. Never in my wildest dreams did I think that driving through Nevada with

Kenny Corrock would lead to this day.

The next morning around 8:30 I arrive with the limo at the hotel. I call the road manager who says that Petty will be down shortly. 9 am, no Petty. 9:10, no Petty. 9:15, no Petty. 9:20, no Petty. I am getting nervous.

Finally, just before 9:30 Petty and his road manager come out of the elevator. Off we go in the limousine. It’s immediately clear to me that Tom Petty is not a morning person. I try to put him at ease, saying, “Thank you for doing this. I will get you through this as quickly as possible. If you want coffee and a sweet roll we have time.” We stopped for coffee on the way to the first interview and didn’t say more than two words to each other. After that, on the way to the second interview I said to Petty, “Look, I am not here to promote anything, but… if you’re interested I have in my pocket a little something that is derived from coca leaf, and in the spirit of getting through today I would be happy to share this with you.” He looks at me and says, “Seriously?” I say, “Seriously. No judging. No one finds out.

What happens in the limo stays in the limo.”

I get a spark of enthusiasm from Petty. I asked the limo driver to close the partition between us and proceeded to do the business. As we arrived for the second interview, he asked, “So, I hear you’re from Montana.”

“No,” I answered. “Idaho.” He finally starts to open up and really wanted to know all about Idaho. I tell him about Sun Valley, skiing, the Sawtooth Mountains, the Stanley Basin and Red Fish Lake. He hung on every word. I was learning that Petty was a really nice guy from Florida and we had lived in two different worlds. Eventually, we arrived at interview number three, which went very well. He was a lot more candid.

On our way to interview four I started questioning myself: Are we doing everything we can for this guy?

The interviews are good, but are they enough? Is what we’re doing today going to leave a lasting impact? I couldn’t think of anything more and normally would have shrugged and let it go. But this feeling of not doing enough would not go away. It was driving me crazy, and I knew my window of opportunity with Petty was running out. I knew more could be done. Just before interview number five it hit me. I needed to give Petty a Bob Beattie Friday afternoon pep talk.

As we pulled up to the station I said, “Hey, before (Cont. on page 15)

In this undated photo, an exuberant Tom Petty takes a flying leap.

program director I found was Mike Bailey. I introduced them and could tell Bailey was taken aback. I’m sure he was enjoying the party but never expecting to have the opportunity to talk with Tom Petty. Tom was cordial, friendly, outgoing and in just a few minutes the entire band was engulfed by the crowd. The band’s appearance took the entire atmosphere of the party up a few notches. People were dancing. The DJ was rocking the house. I made a management decision and walked over to the head bartender and said, “From here on it’s an open bar. Keep track of what you pour and give me the bill.” All the bartenders looked at me with an "Are you sure you want to do that" look on their faces.

“Yes, Mr. Mooney, we can do that. Open bar from now on.” I sat back and observed the perfect storm.

I had a full house and everyone was dancing and having a great time. The music was keeping the spirit alive and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers were working the crowd.

Around 1 am I noticed Petty rounding up his crew to leave, which was fine. He had done more than I had hoped for. I was across the room and we made eye contact as he was leaving. He did a little head nod of approval and I did the same back to him. Then they were gone. As the party began to wind down, I went to the front door to say goodbye to all the guests. I was getting high fives and accolades from everyone.

Around 2 am the last of the party goers left. The DJ Courtesy tompetty.com

and the bartenders all commented to me that that was one hell of a party. I said thanks and went to my room and crashed.

The breakdown The next morning as I was checking out of the hotel the manager came to the counter and asked, “Are you Mr. Mooney with ABC Records.?”

“Yes,” I said, “I am.”

“Mr. Mooney, I am so and so, the manager of the Hilton. I have to tell you we’ve had a lot of functions over the years at the Hilton, but we’ve never seen anything like what you put on last night. I mean, you brought the house down. Here’s my card. If we at the Hilton can ever be of service to you and your company again we would welcome the opportunity.” I’m thinking, "This guy is making me feel like a million bucks."

But by the time I got back on the plane for Dallas I was thinking, "I better start looking for another job, because when Johnny Barbis gets my expense report he’s going to go ballistic." The bar bill alone was in the thousands. I kept the limo an extra eight hours. It was out of control. I didn’t hear from Barbis until Friday of the next week. I was working in the office and got buzzed by the receptionist. “Dan, I have Johnny Barbis on Line 2. I took a deep breath and said to myself, "Well, here goes." I said to Johnny, “Johnny, how you doing, buddy?”

He wasted no time in answering, “Don’t give me that good buddy shit, Moondog. I want an explanation to what the f*ck is going on.”

I said, “It just seemed like an open bar was the best way to go, and I kept the limo driver a little longer than planned."

“F*ck the open bar and limo driver,” he said. “I want to know how my rookie promotion manager who has been on the job for a little over six months was able to convince Tom Petty, his band and road manager to go to an after-concert party and stay there until 1 am and work the crowd. Moondog, my phone has been ringing off the hook all week long. Every program director in and around Oklahoma City has called me to tell me what a great job you did. Tom’s road manager told me the same. We’re getting air play on ‘Refugee’ in and around Oklahoma City and Tulsa. I could f*cking kiss you. You did the impossible. You got Tom and his band to go to an after-concert party. You have done what no other promotion manager in this company has been able to do. What? You thought I was going to yell at you about your expense report and the open bar? OK, I’ll yell at you. You ever have an open bar again there will be a map to the unemployment office enclosed in your weekly paycheck envelope. Great job, Moondog. Great job. This was your breakthrough. I was on the verge of letting you go a couple of times since you started, but you hung in there and I am so proud of you.”

After he hung up I was in a daze. Wow, I thought, I certainly wasn’t expecting that.

As the weeks and months went by, the album “Damn the Torpedoes” eventually reached number 2 on the Billboard album chart. It spent seven weeks in the number 2 position and went on to become certified triple platinum. “Refugee” the single, peaked out at 15 on the top 100’s Billboard chart. As time went on, whenever I heard his music or heard people talking about him, or when I would be playing his music on my boat at Cultus Lake for my daughter and her friends, I would try to do that same little shy smirk he does on the “Refugee” video. It is a great feeling to know that on his path to stardom, even though I played a very, very small part in helping him reach that goal, I’ve always been able to say to myself, “If nothing else, at least I got him to come to the party.”

Dan Mooney skied on the world pro ski circuit for six years in the 1970s. He currently lives in Central Oregon.

REST IN PEACE, TOM. WE MISS YOU.

you go in, I want to share something with you.

Please bear with me. I need you to use your imagination. The program director is named Mike Bailey and you are now Mike Bailey and it’s Monday morning. You go to work and start out with the usual chit chat and are asked if you went to the Tom Petty concert on Friday night. You answer, ‘Yeah, the wife and I went to the concert and had a great time.’ End of story. Now, let’s change it up a bit. You say, ‘Ya, we went to the concert, it was really great, and you know that guy Dan Mooney threw a concert. And, you’re not going to believe this, Tom Petty shows up with his entire band. I ended up talking with Tom for like half an hour. What a great guy! We’re both from Florida and we have a lot in common. In the production meeting this morning let’s take a close look at this music and see if we can’t give him more airplay time than we are right now.’”

Then I said to Petty, “You see the difference. These post-concert parties are nice. I have all the radio and record store people there, and think of the impact it would have if the artist showed up, too. Now I am putting the artist in front of the people who will play your records. It would be HUGE. I am putting on a post-party concert at the Hilton tonight. I know this is the first you’ve heard about it, but if I could get you and the Heartbreakers to show up, even for half an hour to shake a few hands and talk to a few people it would make such a difference. After the concert I will bring the limo driver to your dressing room. If you feel like going, I will have him drive you and take you back to your hotel afterwards.” Then I shut up.

Petty sat there looking at me for a little time and then says, “I like you, Mooney. I was dreading doing these interviews today, but you did make it fun. You know we don’t go to post concert functions, but I get what you’re saying. I won’t say yes or no, but we will see.”

“Fair enough, Tom,” I said. “Let’s get you through this interview and back to the hotel and call it a day.”

We had a nice drive back to the hotel and as I dropped him off, I said, “Thanks. I had fun hanging with you today."

“I did too, Mooney,” he said. “You’re OK.” The concert that night was awesome. “Damn the Torpedoes” had just been released and we were promoting “Refugee” as the single. I had only heard the album a couple of times, but hearing them play it live blew me away. It was my first time seeing Tom Petty in concert. He and the band had a certain “straight ahead rock and roll style” that I loved and was missing in a lot of 1979 music heard on the radio. After the show I got the limo driver and deposited him at Petty’s dressing room where he was clearly visible to anyone in the room. I walked up to Petty and told him, “Great show. I really loved it. Thanks for your help this afternoon. By the way, standing over there in the corner is the limo driver.” Then I left.

Everything was set up at the Hilton. I got a drink, sat back and thought, ‘Well, you’ve done everything you can do. Let’s see what happens.’

Soon people started to show up. Much to my surprise the room filled up. I didn’t know if these people were starved for entertainment or it was just Friday night and they were energized by a Tom Petty concert.

But they were there to party. The DJ nailed the music.

Soon the dance floor was full and people were genuinely having a good time. After about an hour there was a commotion at the front door. I looked to see what was happening and much to my shock, amazement, disbelief and pure, unadulterated happiness and gratitude, there stood Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers: Mike Campbell, Ron Blair, Stan Lynch and Benmont Tench.

I made a beeline for the front door, went up to Petty and said, “Thanks.” He gave me a nod of approval and I said, “Come with me. I’ve got someone I’d like you to meet.” I had no idea who. Oddly enough, the first radio

A look at some of music’s best from July

t’s officially Beyoncé season, with her seventh studio album, “Renaissance,” releasing on July 29. It’s been a hot minute since we’ve had a new Beyoncé album—the last was 2016’s “Lemonade” that took over every social media channel. The lone single off the upcoming record so far, the bouncy “Break My Soul,” has already become another historical notch in the superstar’s belt. With its release Beyoncé has become the first woman and third artist ever to have 20 Top 10 songs as a solo artist and at least 10 Top 10 tracks with a group on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart. The only other two to do so are Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney.

Before she puts up even bigger numbers and takes over the world yet again, let’s take a look at some of the best local, regional and national beats.

Locals' Bin “Cult of Melody” - Dalton Bell Opening with an epic synth that slowly melts before Dalton Bell emerges triumphantly with his guitar, “Exordium” is the perfect opener and pace setter for Bell’s latest album, “Cult of Melody.” Filled with a bum rush of poppy ‘80s-sounding guitar hooks, Bell brings glam rock back in full force. If you’ve recently binged “Stranger Things” on Netflix and are in the mood for some throwback tunes, this will give you that same nostalgic feeling in a new way. The whole album plays like the backdrop to a giant life-altering journey. Even with no lyrics, I can practically see the story playing out. Track eight, titled “Perilous,” sounds like a late level in a video game, where you’re marching up toward the eerie castle where the final boss battle takes place. “Cult of Melody” comes to a close with its title track that by the end is beaming with a sense of relief and peace, as you hear windchimes off in the distance. That all is calm.

Regional Gem “Feral Kids” - Heists Described on Bandcamp as a “pandemic sanity project,” Eugene duo Heists have succeeded in making this a totally wild and fun listening experience. After you listen to “Feral Kids” it makes sense why the duo of Luke Kuzava and Theo Halpert called it a “mid-apocalypse party album,” because it sounds like they took their paint palette and smeared all of its colors together into one abstract and gorgeous- looking blob. That blob as music sounds industrial, poppy, metal, funky, lo-fi and experimental. If you took the DNA of Ween, Gorillaz, MGMT and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard into a lab and created a new band from scratch it may sound a bit like this. Favorites include “Goodbye Rosie,” “Fly Together” and “Happy Accidents.”

National Beats “Household Name” - Momma One of my favorite albums of the year BY FAR. The trio of Etta Friedman, Allegra Weingarten and Aron Kobayashi Ritch will floor you with its punchy guitar riffs and catchy hooks that take you back to the ‘90s.

With a sound reminiscent of acts like Liz Phair, Pavement and The Breeders, the group’s third album makes a playful spectacle out of the idea of “making it big” as a rock band. That idea of a superstar, household-name band almost doesn’t seem nearly as possible in 2022 as it did maybe 30 years ago—but that self-awareness is present on the record. Featuring songs about heartbreak, anxiety, fear and nostalgia, Momma delivers a grungy and poppy masterpiece that will infect your brain on loop. I don’t need to tell you where to start to get into this one, because the best spot is right from the jump of the album. The first five tracks will hook you. Trust me.

Lindsey Stirling’s tour, “Artemis,” rises again

By Alan Sculley

Sydney Takeshta

L

indsey Stirling could hardly have experienced a more abrupt and dramatic stop to her music activities than what happened when the pandemic hit in early 2020.

She was on a plane with her dancers, band and crew heading to South America to start a leg of her “Artemis” tour, when word came that the tour was being canceled and it was time to turn around and fly back to Los Angeles. Not surprisingly, it took a minute to grasp what had just happened.

“At first I definitely thought my agent and my manager were just being over-protective,” Stirling recalled in a recent phone interview. “I was like, I can do this. We’re healthy, we’re good…So I called (my manager) and I said ‘Please let us do this. My crew, they’re all willing to stay.’ And they basically told me this is bigger than management and agents. This isn’t a choice. You’re coming home. It was just such a shock.”

Stirling spent the early part of the pandemic in Missouri with family before eventually returning to her home in Los Angeles, where she rode out the rest of the lockdown. Now with COVID restrictions being eased, she has at long last resumed her “Artemis” tour (named after her most recent album, which was released in fall 2019). Her show is getting a bit of a makeover from where it was when the plug was pulled on touring.

“We decided to completely re-do all of the costumes; one, because they just got so worn out on the last tour,” Stirling said. “I’m super hands-on with all of that stuff and it’s really fun for me.

“And now I’ve had more time to see what fans love about the album,” she said.

“I’ve been able to see what songs and what things they’ve (been responding to) the most. So I am switching up the set a little bit based on what I’ve seen over the (recent months).”

Her show figures to feature the two main components that have made Stirling a unique fixture on the modern music scene—a diverse range of songs from all five or her albums that set her violin playing to a dynamic backdrop heavily influenced by electronic music and plenty of choreography for Stirling and her four dancers.

Stirling began developing her sound and performing approach about 15 years ago, when she launched her YouTube channel. She really began to catch on online after competing on “America’s Got Talent” in 2010, generating enough activity that she was signed by Lady Gaga’s manager, Troy Carter.

This led to the release of Stirling’s self-titled debut album in 2012. Three more albums followed over the next five years as she refined her classical-meets-EDM sound and did multiple tours.

“Artemis” represents arguably Stirling’s most ambitious musical venture yet. In addition to including 13 songs, the project also features a six-part comic book series that tells the story on which the album is based and videos for several of the songs, making for a true multi-media project.

Stirling came into the “Artemis” project after an album, “Brave Enough,” on which she grappled with loss and grief following the deaths of her father and best friend. She was in a much better place emotionally and wanted the next album to reflect both past phases of her life and the much happier person she had become.

“When I was thinking about concepts and album artwork and what not I just kept drawing the moon. That kept coming up in the artwork,” Stirling said. “And I love that the moon goes through phases. And the phrase came to my mind that just because the moon is covered in shadow doesn’t mean it’s not still there. There was a time in my life I had felt like I was so covered up by sadness, grief, depression, shadow, whatever it was, that I felt like I had lost myself. I didn’t know what I was doing anymore. But then I felt myself come back. Oh, it’s not that I was gone. It’s not that I lost who I am. It’s that I was covered with shadow. And then I really started thinking who is the goddess of the moon?”

In Greek mythology, that goddess is Artemis.

“So it all started more with the concept of the moon, and then I became fascinated with, ‘Oh my gosh, Artemis is the goddess of the moon and she is this strong, fierce warrior who also is the huntress, but also she’s soft and she’s nurturing.' She’s the goddess of fertility,” Stirling explained. “I thought that was such a cool metaphor for women. We can be strong and fierce, but also we have this special nurturing side. So I just fell in love with what she represents in every way and this story just kind of poured out of it in a very organic way.”

Lindsey Stirling comes to Bend in support of her album, “Artemis,” a tour that was stopped by the pandemic in 2020.

e on the lookout this week for folks dressed up as fairies and a rogue fellow with donkey-like features. Guerilla Shakespeare returns for its fifth edition this summer and will perform a “Midsummer Night’s Dream” around Central Oregon.

For those unfamiliar with the Shakespearean classic, it goes something like this: A mischievous fairy named Puck is selected to administer a love potion to unsuspecting couples in the woods. He makes a mistake, causing everyone to fall for the wrong person. This fairy continues the chaos by playing a joke on a group of men practicing a production in the woods, with the rest of the play going along to unwind all the mistakes and chaos that Puck created. The best way to figure out if the chaos ever ends? Go watch Guerilla Shakespeare!

Guerilla Shakespeare has put on productions of other Shakespearian classics in the past and is starting to become a staple in Bend’s summer arts scene. The troupe offers unpretentious productions that provide a great way to introduce kids to Shakespeare, or a different venue and space that

Shakespeare connoisseurs can enjoy.

The costumes will be bright and fun with no particular era in mind. There will be music that accommodates the performances, and possibly a donkey singing his heart out to find courage. The fairy world colliding with the human one makes for a magical play that delivers a new sense of awe with each different adaptation.

The production goes from July 21-July 30 at outdoor venues across Central Oregon. July 28 and 29 the show will be at the Deschutes Memorial Garden & Chapel, July 30 it will be at Fir Park in Sisters and the last show will take place at General Duffy’s Waterhole July 31.

Volcanic Theatre Pub featured in new video series highlighting small venues around the U.S.

By Nicole Vulcan

Hot Buttered Rum plays during its May 7 show—a show that had to be postponed for nearly two years due to the closures affecting indoor entertainment venues, including the Volcanic Theatre Pub.

just that, Sitter shared in the video.

“With organizations like Live Music Society looking out for the independent people across the country that do take the time to cultivate and curate artists— you have to take care of these people first. So with the grants—but more importantly, not just the money, it’s the support. I know they got our back when we need it,” Sitter said.

Sitter also gave a kind of shout-out to the support he’s gotten through readers of the Source Weekly in the LMS video, too.

“It just evolved into where the community embraced us as, it’s their spot,” Sitter said in the video. “It’s their place, and from year one—now we’re into year… essentially year 10… we’ve been voted the

number one [indoor] music venue in Central Oregon every year.”

The first episode of “American Road Trip,” featuring Volcanic, debuted on July 13, coinciding with Independent Venue Week in the U.S. So far, the feedback has been more than positive, Sitter told the Source.

“The response has been overwhelming. I certainly think it has painted a great picture for Bend and Volcanic. However, I think it paints a perfect picture of the significance of all small independent venues across the U.S.” The episode featuring Volcanic can be found on the Live Music Society website or at https://youtu.be/2Kt1zSJFt4w.

Live Music Society

aybe you didn’t know this, but when touring musicians come to a town, they size up the crowd. In the mountain town of Bend, we’ve been described as “oxygenated”—fans full of life and vigor who’ve spent the day trail running or skiing and are now ready to rock.

Or, that’s at least how the bluegrass band Hot Buttered Rum described the average Bend crowd in a new video produced by Live Music Society during its show at the Volcanic Theatre Pub. The venue, one of Bend’s liveliest and most-booked indoor venues, was recently the recipient of a COVID relief grant from Live Music Society—a nonprofit that supports small, independently run music venues across the U.S. In addition to the grant funds, Volcanic became the first venue to be introduced in “American Road Trip,” LMS’ new video series that tells the story of the small independent venues it supports. An LMS video crew was in Bend May 7 to record the show put on by Hot Buttered Rum at VTP—a show that was originally scheduled for 2020, but was postponed due to the pandemic.

The return of live music in both indoor and outdoor venues has been a shift from the quieter times of 2020 and 2021. For fans, it’s meant time to dust off the dancing shoes. For musicians, it’s been a reminder of the need to support the venues that support them.

“Clubs like this are important to the ecosystem of music,” said Nat Keefe, vocalist and guitar player for Hot Buttered Rum during an interview in the LMS video. “This is where a lot of the experimentation happens. This is where a lot of mingling happens—you know, of a national touring act with a local act. When we were coming up that’s where we met a lot of our heroes, is opening for them at clubs when they were on tour—you get to meet them and maybe play with them and learn from them.”

Financial support by way of grants has been a boon during the pandemic, but there’s more to support than

DC LEAGUE OF SUPER-PETS: This animated adventure sees The Rock and Kevin Hart as the voice of Superman and Batman’s respective dogs that must team up to save their respective Super Partners. The trailers for this aren’t great, but I’ve been a fan of the Super-Pets since I was a kid, so don’t be surprised if you see me at the theater. Regal Old Mill, Sisters Movie House, McMenamins ELVIS: I would have zero interest in this one if it wasn’t from the same filmmaker that did “Moulin Rouge,” so I know it will at least be visually interesting. Sorry, I just don’t care about Elvis. I like the musicians he ripped off quite a bit more. Regal Old Mill, Odem Theater Pub EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE:

in thinking the last couple “Jurassic World” movies had a few pretty exciting moments but weren’t actually great movies. This new one brings back Sam Neil, Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum from the original, but still manages to be dull, uninspired and pointless. Regal Old Mill

MARCEL THE SHELL WITH SHOES ON: Did you fall in love with the hilarious and touching YouTube videos of Marcel (voiced by the luminous Jenny Slate) when they came out a few years ago? You haven’t seen them? Go ahead and watch them…I’ll wait. You wanna go see the movie now??? Perfect, I’ll meet you there! Regal Old Mill MINIONS: THE RISE OF GRU: I definitely wish this

looked more like a sequel to the surprisingly great “Minions” and less like a prequel to “Despicable Me,” but who am I kidding, I’ll see this either way. I love me some twinkie-shaped, gibberish-speaking weirdos. Regal Old Mill

MRS. HARRIS GOES TO PARIS: The story of a British housekeeper and her dream to own a Christian Dior gown. The trailer for this is charming and it’s been a while since we’ve had a good fish- out-of-water story, so here’s hoping this is as good as it looks.

Regal Old Mill, Sisters Movie House NOPE: One of my most anticipated movies of 2022 is finally here: Jordan Peele’s third feature as a director, “Nope.” Instead of doing another deep dive into the fractured psyche of humanity, this is an alien invasion story unlike any we’ve ever seen. This managed to exceed every single expectation I had for it. See full review on page 45. Regal Old Mill, Sisters Movie House, Odem Theater Pub

PAWS OF FURY: THE LEGEND OF HANK: Back when this was being developed, this animated family adventure was called “Blazing Samurai,” which will always be a better title. The trailer definitely looks like it’s taking its inspiration from “Kung-Fu Panda,” but with a voice cast featuring Michael Cera, Mel Brooks, Sam Jackson and the co-director of “The Lion King” behind the camera, maybe it can rise above its inspirations. Regal Old Mill

PHANTOM OF THE OPEN: A very British charmer starring the always reliable Mark Rylance as the true-life golfer Maurice Flitcroft. Flitcroft shot a 121 in the qualifying competition for the 1976 Open Championship, leading to him earning the title of “World’s Worst Golfer.” This is the story of how a badass ship crane operator spent years gate crashing the British Open. A treat. Tin Pan Theater THE RACE TO ALASKA: Do you want to be pinned to your theater seat for a couple hours while watching a documentary about one of the most dangerous races in the world? Good, because that’s absolutely going to happen here. Have fun with that. Tin Pan Theater THOR: LOVE AND THUNDER: Writer/director Taika

Waititi is one of our most innovative filmmakers and “Love and Thunder” is packed with mind-blowing visuals and some of his most irreverent humor yet.

Don’t believe the negativity, this is an absolute blast.

I hope we get Thor movies forever. Regal Old Mill, Odem Theater Pub, McMenamins

TOP GUN: MAVERICK: There’s a reason why Tom

Cruise is the last true movie star and it’s mostly because he’s that perfect blend of creepy, weird and desperate to entertain us—and boy does he. This feels like a true Hollywood crowd-pleaser in a way we haven’t seen in years. Talk about a highway to the danger zone. Regal Old Mill

VENGEANCE: A darkly funny crime thriller written/ directed and starring Ryan from “The Office” follows an NYC podcaster who heads out to the sticks to try to solve the crime of who murdered a girl he hooked up with once. He’s trying to make something like “Serial” or “S**tTown,” but ends up in the middle of something that looks a lot more like “Winter’s Bone.” Regal Old Mill WHERE THE CRAWDADS SING: I really liked this book and actress Daisy Edgar-Jones is a fantastic new talent, so hopefully this Rural Noir murder mystery catches the imaginations of people unfamiliar with the story. If the advanced reviews are accurate, the film doesn’t quite capture the same magic as the book does, but not many movies adapt novels very well in the first place.

Way Too Close Encounters SCREEN Jordan Peele looks to the sky in ‘Nope’

Daniel Kaluuya gives another transformative performance in Jordan Peele’s “Nope.”

tendencies and social commentaries so much deeper into the subtext of the film that it actually takes some effort from the viewer this time to unpack the layers of meaning.

All I will say about the story is that Daniel Kaluuya plays O.J., a horse trainer in Hollywood who starts seeing weird things out at his ranch. Keke Palmer is Emerald, his sister, who has no interest in the country life. Kaluuya changes his physicality completely for the role, playing a much more lumbering and quiet man than we’ve ever seen from him

before. Palmer proves that she’s a movie star and that Hollywood is missing out on not having her star in everything.

What amazes me about Peele as a storyteller is that with “Nope,” he has his biggest budget yet, is working with one of the finest cinematographers on the planet in Hoyte van Hoytema (“Interstellar” and “Her” among others) and is telling a story on a much larger scale than ever before, but he still doesn’t go the route of making a four-quadrant crowd-pleaser. A lot of people aren’t going to like this movie because it

WHAT’S BREWING AUG. 2 | 5:00–7:30PM ED RAY HALL, OSU-CASCADES

doesn’t use the familiar tropes of storytelling to be as immediately satisfying as something like the new “Top Gun.” Instead, Peele tells a deeply metaphorical story about the disassociation of trauma in America, the white-washing of history and our ability as a species to never grow full on a diet of bad news and worse images, while also putting together a heart-racing thriller/ deconstructionist Western with ever-escalating tension that plays like a master conductor showing his audience how to combine sound, design, image, performance and silence to create art that’s personal and populist at the same time.

“Nope” will probably be less satisfying to mass audiences because it doesn’t have the straightforward horror of “Us” or the intricate plotting of “Get Out,” and will be more disappointing to critics because its big ideas can’t be boiled down to a single thesis. Instead, “Nope” is a big, weird movie that I can’t talk about as much as I want to because to spoil this thing would be awful. This movie probably isn’t what you think it is, and some people will love that and some people will be hugely disappointed. For what it’s worth, this is the best movie of Peele’s career, whether we realize it now or decades from now.

on’t let anyone spoil “Nope” for you.

It’s not hiding some mind-blowing twist like a Shyamalan picture, but watching Jordan Peele use his considerably astounding craft to weave a story is breathtaking. Following him across the dark and bloody patches of his imagination is a treat for us lovers of suspense and, with his third film, Peele is in full control of his abilities.

Not that he already wasn’t for his first film, “Get Out,” which walked a razor-thin line between satire, horror and social commentary while telling a story that felt immediately of-the-moment. Peele deconstructed aspects of the woke movement while also poking fun at white liberal guilt but also told a genuinely original and creepy story.

With his second movie, “Us,” he leaned fully into horror while still clocking in with modern social issues and the inherited pain of forgotten swaths of society. If Peele wasn’t telling a genuinely compelling story with “Us,” then none of the subtext would hold power, but he’s shaped such an original horror story that we feel the weight of the commentary even as we get spooked and laugh through the terror.

Peele proves something beyond a doubt with “Nope.” He’s evolving and growing as a filmmaker and storyteller.

His vision here feels uncompromised, with an escalating sense of cinematic language that puts him into a very rare air of filmmakers operating on this level for their third film. But what he’s also done is put his deconstructionist

hen it comes to OG spots for food, brews and fun in Bend, you don’t get much more OG than some of the earliest breweries—and one beloved ski shop. This summer, Deschutes Brewery, Silver Moon Brewing and Powder House are all offering something new to entice locals and newcomers alike.

Deschutes Brewery Outdoor Beer Garden Those looking to sample the OG-est of OG beers in Bend already head over to Deschutes Brewery on Simpson and Colorado Avenues to sit in its indoor tasting room—but now, visitors can sip outdoors, too. The Deschutes Brewery Outdoor Beer Garden is a kid- and pet-friendly spot with games, beer and the Bleu Rooster food cart. It’s open Thursday through Sunday from noon to 7pm—kinda ideal for those looking to pre-game before a show at the amphitheater… and chances are the drinks won’t set you back a twenty-spot like they do inside the show.

The Green Room at Silver Moon Brewing Over the past few years, Silver Moon Brewing has been steadily adding new spaces for hangouts and food, and this summer marks yet another addition. With the recent acquisition of the boxing gym just east of the brewpub, SMB opened The Green Room, where it’s currently hosting ongoing events like its Speakeasy on the Moon event every Sunday from 6-9pm. Expect pool, darts and poker every Sunday, with $3 pints and a $10 cash cover. Look for other events at The Green Room in the Source Calendar!

Bigger shop, food carts at Powder House Construction is underway at Powder House on Century Drive, where expansion plans are happening in two phases, KTVZ reported. The first phase includes renovation and expansion of the existing building, which will grow to house more ski, snowboard and backcountry gear for sale and rentals. The next phase, expected to get underway next year, will include a new three-story building and space for 12 food carts.

Something to Chew On: Finding Fresh Local Food

A self-guided tour helps local orgs educate Central Oregonians about the local food network

Chris Williams

alking into Agricultural Connections this past week, I was an inexperienced outsider, invited on a tour of a facility that connects local farms to a larger network of restaurants, grocery stores and individuals. It was the first part of a gathering of like-minded individuals from around the Pacific Northwest who run facilities like Agricultural Connections, or who are looking to start their own. I was invited to the tour and information session by Sydney DeLuna of High Desert Food & Farm Alliance, another organization pivotal in the advocacy of the Central Oregon food system.

“Our struggle here in Central Oregon is that many people do not realize that we have a robust network of local growers and ranchers and that our food is readily available through a number of outlets,” DeLuna wrote in an email. One way that HDFFA is trying to alleviate this problem is by creating the High Desert Food Trail—a self-guided tour that introduces people to local ranches, organic farms and craft food and beverage providers.

“Our struggle here in Central Oregon is that many people do not realize that we have a robust network of local growers and ranchers and that our food is readily available through a number of outlets.”

—SYDNEY DELUNA HDFFA designed the trail in conjunction with Travel Oregon, serving as both a marketing tool and an opportunity for locals to learn about the foodshed of Central Oregon. It also helps to dispel the myth that the region can’t produce local food year-round.

Central Oregon’s dry desert air and the sandy volcanic dirt doesn’t scream out, “robust local food system” to some. Before the tour, I personally associated organic farming in Oregon to the Willamette Valley with its pristine soil and wet environment. But Central Oregon does have a growing local food system.

Foodshed, a term originally coined in the 1920s to describe the globalization of food networks, has evolved to also describe 21st-Century networks of local

and organic food production. Like the term “watershed,” which describes a system of bodies of water that drain into an area, a foodshed tracks how the production of food in a region flows from farm to table. This includes everything from where the food is produced, the land it grows on and the markets and distribution centers it goes through to make its way to the table.

Within this system, Agricultural Connections fills the role of a “food hub”—defined by the U.S. Department of Agriculture as “a centrally located facility with a business management structure facilitating the aggregation, storage, processing, distribution and/or marketing of locally/regionally produced food products.”

One of the central parts of the recent tour was the facility’s storage fridge, where AC stores the products sent to the organization by farmers. Agricultural Connections sets aside produce to send to restaurants and markets, and also creates produce bags for the public.

Bags were being readied during my tour, sitting on a

long table packed to the brim with produce. The inside of the bag is reflective, providing refrigeration and keeping things fresh.

Agricultural Connections works with over 15 farms and supplies over 20 restaurants. It maintains a close connection with HDFFA, another prong of the area’s “foodshed” that provides increased access to local, nutritious food.

“We define good food as affordable, nutritious and culturally appropriate food that is easily accessible and sustainably produced in Central Oregon,” HDFFA describes on its website. To achieve its goals the organization has developed programs that target specific issues, such as the High Desert Food Trail.

HDFFA’s Grow and Give is another of its programs, responsible for collecting and distributing food, annually providing over 26,000 meals for Central Oregonians through food banks and NeighborImpact.

or the first (official) time there will be a Tour de France bike race for women cyclists, aptly titled Tour de France Femmes. Although efforts to have a women’s race that takes riders across France have been happening since the 1950s, no event has had enough support to be sustainable. The newest rendition appears to have the broadcasting and sponsorship deals in place that prior efforts lacked.

NBC will broadcast the race domestically and training company Zwift will be the primary sponsor.

The local bike community will host a viewing party for stage five of the eight stage race at Walt Reilly’s July 28. Stage five is the longest stage of the race, spanning 108 miles. This is currently the longest single day road stage in professional women’s cycling with the last section spanning 12 miles that takes place after a small climb. This could set riders up for a grueling sprint to the finish line and plenty of excitement.

In all there will be 24 teams competing with 144 racers total. The race will take place over eight days (July 24-July 31) and cover 240 miles.

The watch party will offer a chance to connect with the local cycling community and be a part of the inaugural event. There will be a special talk by a former pro cyclist, raffles, trivia and free Putt-Putt for anyone who shows up on their bike! The night will last from 6-9pm. For those looking to watch the race before and after the evening, tune into NBC or check out the broadcasting company’s streaming service, Peacock, which will allow for two hours of free streaming each day.

Winging It in the Heat

Wild birds have adapted, but could still use our help during extreme heat

Quail are just one of many bird species that appreciate water during the triple-digit heat.

the soft oils contaminate bird feathers, impairing their ability to stay cool now and warm in the winter.

Other wildlife can also use a quick dip or drink, so soak the rocky places where the frogs hang out and get trays on the ground for the bunnies. Plant trays work great for the low-grounders, but anything that holds water works.

Place rocks in them so everyone can safely get out. The deer will be grateful for a small tub of any kind or stock tank if you have one. Give plants a good soaking early in the day to help them and the insects that will be harboring in the safety of their foliage. If you have land, putting out trays and soaker hoses for the birds who don’t like the commotion of our homes can help them, too.

Disease is always a concern when you have congregations of animals in one place, especially if they are eating—or drinking—from the same vessel. Keep the feeders and the baths clean, and if there are any signs of illness, follow proper protocols for disease prevention. Finally, if you have birds in boxes, a tent canopy set over and up away from the box can lower the temp inside significantly. Boxes should always be larger and have ventilation these days due to heat.

Don’t be surprised if you have some unique visitors this week, along with the many flighted neighbors who will no doubt seek your generous offerings.

T

he outside thermometer is launching into the red zone this week, and like us, our wildlife will be seeking respite. We know that heat can have concerning health impacts, but not just for us upright, two-leggeds. Everyone suffers in extreme heat—insects, mammals and birds, as well as those with roots holding them in one place, plants.

The animals and plants of Central Oregon are indeed adapted to some heat extremes. But last year, we beat all records when we catapulted into the triple digits of 115 degrees. And, here we are again in the 100s. We can do a lot to help our flighted friends who frequent our yards and the others who hang out closer to the ground.

Our yard birds do have physiological adaptations that help them survive high heat. Depending on the species, birds’ average temperatures run between 101106 degrees. When the thermostat rises and the temps begin to approach their internal temperatures, they risk heat exhaustion, stress and stroke just like the rest of us.

Because birds don’t sweat, they have adapted different strategies for cooling off. Mainly, they pant. Cooling is done by air passing across the wet tissues in the mouth and throat, called evaporative cooling. They flutter the skin at the front of the neck to enhance this form of cooling. To release heat from their naturally warm armor of feathers, they have this amazing ability to lift each individual feather due to muscles at the base. Those scaly, bare legs also help jettison heat.

However, panting and exposing the skin to air can lead to dehydration if the lost moisture is not replaced quickly.

This is another way high heat kills. Having bird baths, water features, misters or just simple trays of water out can be life-saving for many species. Keep those baths clean, though, and with fresh, cool water. Move them to the shade. A single mist sprayer or a soaker hose set on medium is water-conservative, but birds love to fly through and stand in the spray.

Birds excel at adjusting their behavior to fit the circumstances, yet when the weather hits the true extremes, they can really suffer. Birds will tend to focus their activities in the cool of the morning and late afternoon. They will seek shelter in the dense shrubs or deep canopy of the trees mid-day. Our native plants—shrubs, grasses, and trees—are Olympic-scale winners at this.

Birds restrict their food-seeking and foraging activities, which helps reduce their internal temps, but they go hungry.

So, keep those feeders filled. Sunflower

U.S. Senate May Finally Take Up Federal Legalization

Cannabis Administration and Opportunity Act would deschedule, decriminalize cannabis nationally

M

ore than 50 years of federal marijuana prohibition has devastated Black and brown communities, helped militarize police forces throughout the country and made criminals out of countless millions who dared to consume a naturally occurring plant whose greatest medical downsides may include excessive Doritos consumption.

If a U.S. Senate miracle happens, however, this could be the year it all ends.

The Cannabis Administration and Opportunity Act would decriminalize marijuana on a national level, removing it from the Drug Enforcement Agency’s Schedule 1 listing, which classifies marijuana as highly addictive, dangerous and without medicinal value. Senators Ron Wyden (D-OR), Cory Booker (D-NJ) and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) each co-sponsored the bill, introduced to the Senate on July 21. This is the first such bill to be introduced in the U.S. Senate in our country’s history.

Since then, Sens. Patty Murray (D-WA) and Gary Peters (D-MI) also signed on as co-sponsors.

“This legislation is about justice, strengthening our economy and bringing the federal government into the 21st Century,” Murray said in a press release.

The legislation would also invest in communities that have been disproportionately harmed by the Drug War, provide incentives and assistance to under-served communities so more minority ownership would be represented in the industry, and would expunge millions of non-violent marijuana offenses from criminal records.

The investment fund would come from a 25% federal tax on the marijuana industry. Removing cannabis from the list of controlled substances, however, would allow cannabis companies to deduct “ordinary and necessary” business expenses, likely resulting in a net-reduction in their tax burden, particularly for retailers.

While most Senate Democrats support the bill, it doesn’t have the support of all. In addition to West Virginia Democrat-in-name-only Sen. Joe Manchin, Democratic Senators Jon Tester of Montana, Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire, and Bob Casey of Pennsylvania are each signaling “no,” or are sitting on the fence.

In a political climate where Mitch McConnell would stall legislation that would purport to save his own life if it were sponsored by Democrats, the bill has a very steep hill to climb with Republicans. Even President Biden has

signaled in the past that he is not in favor of full cannabis legalization.

The dim vote outlook notwithstanding, that the legislation is in the Senate at all is monumental. A discussion draft was introduced over a year ago, and comes about a decade after the first of 18 states legalized marijuana for recreational use by adults. A similar version of the bill, dubbed the MORE Act, passed the House in 2020.

CAOA would require 60 votes to pass the Senate. Another cannabis-focused bill, the SAFE (Secure And Fair Enforcement) Banking Act of 2021, would need a simple majority in the Senate if it were brought up for a vote. It would prohibit the federal government from meddling with banks who receive deposits from cannabis businesses, cannabis attorneys and other industries associated with marijuana production, processing and sale. Because this legislation is budgetary in nature, it can pass through a Senate gimmick known as reconciliation, bypassing the filibuster.

Some proponents of CAOA, notably Booker, do not want to see banking legislation protecting the funds of cannabis companies until full legalization passes Congress.

“It’s simply not enough as it stands without reinvestment in communities most hurt by the failed drug war and while people of color are left to languish in federal prisons for marijuana-related offenses,” Booker said in 2019.

Regardless of CAOA’s dim odds, it is worth contemplating the effect such legislation could have. State lines would be thrown open for marijuana exports, and the Emerald Triangle in Southern Oregon and Northern California could be the epicenter of weed exports for any of the 30+ states in the U.S. where cannabis is legal in some form or another. Oregon has already proposed an interstate compact with other non-prohibition states to ready itself for when the federal ban is lifted.

“Oversupply” has been the industry buzzword in Oregon for half a decade, and has fed the illicit cannabis industry. It stands to reason that more unregulated market players would see the financial benefits of going legit if the market’s demand included the 146 million residents in weed-legal states, rather than just the paltry 4 million or so Oregon residents who currently feed our regulated market.

The CAOA bill was the subject of a hearing in the Subcommittee on Criminal Justice and Counterterrorism, scheduled for July 26.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In my Astrological Book of Life, here’s what I have inscribed about Virgos: You may not always find the perfect solution, but you are skilled at finding the best solution available. This will be an especially valuable knack in the coming weeks, both for yourself and others. I trust you will scan for practical but compassionate answers, even if they are partial. And I hope you will address at least some of everyone’s needs, even if no one is completely satisfied. You can be the master of creative compromise that we all need. Thanks in advance for your excellent service!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Everyone knows that “balance” is a keyword for you Librans.

However, there are many interpretations of what balance entails.

Here’s how I define it for you during the coming weeks: 1. an openness to consider several different ways to capitalize on an opportunity, but to ultimately choose just one way; 2. the ability to see and understand all sides of every story, while also knowing that for pragmatism’s sake you must endorse a single version of the story; 3. the capacity to be both constructively critical and supportively sympathetic; 4. the facility to be welcoming and inviting while still maintaining healthy boundaries.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “Life is enchanting

for me because I have so much control over what I think,” my Scorpio friend Daria told me. “If I decide to flatter myself with comments about how attractive I am, I can do just that. If I would like to imagine a good fairy visiting me while I sleep and giving me a dream of having an orgasm with my lover while we fly over the Serengeti Plains, I can.”

I asked her about the times when worries gush forth unbidden from her subconscious mind and disturb her joy. She said, “I simply picture myself shoving those worries in a hole in the ground and blowing them up with an exploding rose.” I bring Daria’s mind-management expertise to your attention, Scorpio, because the coming weeks will be an excellent time for you to raise your mastery over what you think.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): People might

August 18th 11:30am at The Riverhouse 12:00pm Livestream

impatiently advise you to relax and settle down.

Others might tell you to stop dreaming such big visions and formulating such adventurous plans.

Still others might give you the side-eye because they imagine you are having too much fun and brainstorming too wildly and laughing too loudly.

If you receive messages like those, give the complainers a copy of this horoscope. It will tell them that YOU WILL NOT COMPLY WITH ANY INHIBITING DIRECTIVES. Your astrologer, me, authorizes you to be as vast and venturesome and enterprising and spontaneous as you dare. In doing so, I am speaking on behalf of the cosmic rhythms. Your plucky audacity has been heavenly ordained.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In accordance with astrological omens, I hereby authorize you to worry, worry, and worry some more. Stew and simmer and ferment as you weigh all the options and mull the correct actions. But when the time is right, end your fretting with crisp decisiveness.

Shake off any residual doubt that still clings to you.

And then undertake robust action to transform the situation that provoked your righteous brooding. In

my astrological opinion, what I have just described is your best plan for success in the coming days.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “I was looking for a love unlike my parents’ love or my sister’s love or the love on a foreign kitchen floor,” writes Rebecca Dinerstein Knight in her novel The Sunlit Night. “I wanted to forgive my mother and father for their misery and find myself a light man who lived buoyantly and to be both his light and his dark.” I offer you her thoughts, Aquarius, in the hope of inspiring you to expand and deepen your ideas about the love you want. The coming weeks will be a favorable time to revise and reinvigorate your definitions of intimacy and togetherness. You will have extra power to see new truths about how best to create maximum synergy and symbiosis.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “Even raw and messy emotions can be understood as a form of light, crackling and bursting with energy,” writes Jungian psychoanalyst Clarissa Pinkola Estés.

For example, “We can use the light of rage in a positive way, in order to see into places we cannot usually see.” Likewise, confusion might be a healthy sign that a long-held misunderstanding is dissolving. Disappointment may herald the demise of an unrealistic expectation. So let’s unleash a big cheer for raw and messy emotions, Pisces! I suspect they will soon be your gateway to clarity and renewal.

ARIES 21-April

(March 19): Aries

poet Ada Limón advises us to notice and love “the music of the world.”

She says that praising and giving attention to the good things “are as important and necessary as witnessing and naming and holding the grief and sorrow that comes with being alive.”

This is always a crucial principle to keep in mind, but it will be extra essential for you in the coming weeks. Your ability to attract the influences and resources you need most will thrive if you focus on and celebrate the music of the world. PS: I encourage you to sing more than usual, too.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Here’s my hope for you in the coming months: You will cultivate a specialty for connecting people and situations that need to be affiliated but aren’t yet. You will regard your flair for blending as a gift you offer generously. Can you picture yourself doing that? I think it will be fun and will also benefit you in unexpected ways. So here’s my proposed plan: Conspire to heal fragmentation and schisms. Unite heavenly and earthly things. Keep the far side and the near side in touch with each other. Never let the past forget about the future, and vice versa. One more thing, Taurus: Be gleefully imaginative as you mix and conjoin and combine.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): In a play by Gemini philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre, a character says, “Hell is other people.” What did he mean by that?

One interpretation is that our fellow humans always judge us, and their judgments rarely align with who we really are and who we imagine ourselves to be. Here’s my solution for that problem: Choose allies and companions whose views of you match your own. Is that so hard? I suspect it will be easier than usual for you in the coming months, Gemini. Take advantage of life’s natural tendency to connect you with cohorts who appreciate you.

Be picky as you avoid the hell of other people.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): The people most likely to succeed as entrepreneurs are those with a high degree of analytical intelligence. Right?

Well, it’s more complicated than that. Reasoning ability and problem-solving skills are key skills, but not as important as emotional intelligence: the power to understand and manage feelings.

I mention this, Cancerian, because the coming months will be a favorable time to advance your ambitions by enhancing and expressing your emotional intelligence. Here’s some reading to foster your powers:

THE THIRD ACT

A COLUMN ON AGEISM AND AGEING Play It Again, Sam

By Ellen Waterston

me in her wheelchair. She showed no evidence of connection to herself or her surroundings, no response to the music.

But then, about three quarters of the way through the concert (I don’t remember the song), she lifted both her hands ever so slightly, ever so slowly, drawing them back and forth as delicately as butterfly wings in time with the drumbeat. Not a clap exactly, but close. Nothing else about her countenance had changed.

But she had heard the music. It had spoken to something deep inside her.

Of the millions of Americans living in longterm care facilities, many face cognitive difficulties sometimes made worse by leaving behind their familiar surroundings, friends and even their favorite music. Why would music matter?

According to “Harvard Health,” “listening to and performing music reactivates areas of the brain associated with memory, reasoning, speech, emotion and reward.” The article cites two studies, one in the United States and the other in Japan, that find that music “doesn’t just help us retrieve stored memories, it also helps lay down new ones.” It turns out music, especially songs, form one’s formative years, tap deep memories not lost to dementia, bring listeners back to life, enabling them to feel like themselves again, to converse, socialize, stay present. Dr. Laura Mosqueda,

director of Geriatrics at the University of California, Irvine School of Medicine, states, “Music creates an ‘awakening’ of sorts as it reaches areas of the brain that may not be damaged by Alzheimer’s and bring those pathways to the forefront.”

A few years ago, I came across the documentary, “Alive Inside” that follows a man named Dan Cohen who brings music to people suffering from dementia. It chronicles the astounding healing effect that music can have on behavior, mood and quality of life. And there’s more. When a stroke or brain injury has damaged the left-brain region responsible for speech, one can literally sing their way back to speaking, because singing originates in the right (undamaged) side of the brain. First singing their thoughts, patients learn to eventually drop the melody, to speak normally.

This was how former Arizona Representative Gabrielle Giffords regained her ability to speak and was able to testify to Congress only two years after a gunshot wound to her brain.

In the book, “Songlines,” Bruce Chatwin recounts that Australian Aboriginals believed all things must be sung into existence. In considering the effect of music and song on our weary minds, we had better sing our cognitive connection to life into existence every single day.

—Poet and author Ellen Waterston is a woman of a certain age who resides in Bend. "The Third Act" is a series of columns on ageing and ageism.

T

his year, on Father’s Day, I attended an unforgettable concert. It was held, of all places, at an assisted living facility specializing in memory care. A friend of mine now resides there, a preventative decision made after months of thoughtful conversations between him and his grown children, as together they weighed other options: living on his own, with family members, or in a care home. As is his wont, he has embraced his new circumstances, making more than the best of it. His humor, energy and creative generosity have already made their mark on the staff and residents at his new home.

A longtime singer, songwriter and guitarist, he has played in bands all his life, in addition to his award-winning work in film and video. His children caught the music bug from him, all now accomplished musicians and performers in their own right. So, on this Father’s Day, his family gathered in the facility’s community room to honor their father and to showcase what he has always done: give to others through

song. Guitars, drums, fiddles, amplifiers and microphones were set up.

Rattles and tambourines were placed within close reach. The chairs filled.

Additional family members and guests, come to celebrate Father’s Day, added to the gaiety. Canes and walkers belonging to residents were set to one side.

Those confined to wheelchairs were rolled in. Some chatted enthusiastically while others appeared disassociated, detached from what was taking place around them. One in particular, her wheelchair situated near me, sat slumped, chin on her chest, motionless, hands resting listless on her thighs, eyes closed.

My friend positioned a stool in front of the mic, nodded in the direction of his daughter, and the band began to play with him alternately performing as lead singer or singing harmony. How comfortable he was in the saddle of song!

They played rock 'n' roll and everything in between. Beatles and Eagles, country and blues were greeted with applause and hoots of appreciation. It seemed at least one of the medley was on the personal playlist of everyone present...maybe a song that hearkened back to a high school prom or one played full volume on a cross country road trip back in the days of cassette tapes.

Changes In SE Bend

Caldera High and Alpenglow Park in number and quality. I’ve been lucky enough to visit Alpenglow a few times with my son and have been nothing but impressed. Several walking paths snake through the park—great for jogging, walking or any number of wheeled apparatuses. There is a splash pad, offleash dog area, concert stage, plus plenty of open spaces for tossing a Frisbee or ball. The real gem in my opinion is on the north end of the park as you approach Murphy Road. Located here is a large bouldering area, perfect for folks looking to practice their climbing skills, as well as a great place for kids of all ages to get introduced to the sport.

After passing through the various bouldering areas, one can see the other big change that occurred to this area.

If you have lived in or driven through either Old Farm or Southeast Bend, you likely noticed that Murphy Road was closed for quite a while (unless compared to Newport Avenue). The result of this closure was the overpass that connects 15th Street to Brosterhaus Road, aimed at relieving some of the traffic off of Reed Market, along with the known railroad crossing issues.

Punching Murphy Road through to Third street really helps those who live off of 15th Street (namely The Bridges at Shadow Glen) and the new Pahlisch Community, Easton, being developed across from Caldera High School. If you have not been out to this quadrant of town recently you should check out this amazing new high school and community park; you might even find a new restaurant, food cart or coffee shop.

I

wanted to take a quick break from the typical article about the changes in the local real estate market and talk a little about the changes happening in Bend. I spend quite a bit of time driving around various parts of Bend, so one thing that I do notice is how things seem to be constantly changing. This is hardly unique to Bend or Central Oregon, but right now there seem to be a lot of changes and new things going on in the southeast quadrant of Bend. I am not just referring to the neighborhood, “southeast Bend,” but also the Old Farm district, since the two neighborhoods make up most of this quadrant.

The big change everyone has noticed over the last year was the opening of the new Caldera High School, located on south 15th Street. With the growth Bend has been experiencing over the last decade, and the forecasted growth, the city was due for a new high school, and in the fall of 2021, Caldera opened its doors to students and faculty. This building was a sort of catalyst for change that would be coming to south 15th Street.
