EAR FARM Presents... Taigaa, Scott Phillips, Schooner, Erie Choir @ Bickett Gallery in Raleigh - 27 December 2006

This post is a week overdue. Usually I'm very good about getting these post-show posts up right away but this time I needed to take some time to simply enjoy New Year's Eve/Day. The delay was by no means a reflection of how things went.

Back story - when I was back home in Raleigh for the holidays I figured, hey, what better way to celebrate being home with friends than with an EAR FARM Presents... show? It was perfect, in fact, and I was really happy to see so many of my Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill friends at Bickett Gallery on the 27th of December for a holiday party that was full of awesome live music, many drinks, and fine works of art.

The audio for all of these performances was recorded, and I plan to make that available at some point in the future, but for right now I'm just going to post links to some pictures I took and a live video of each band performing a song. A note about the videos - they were taken with a digital camera. Like, as in, a still camera. The microphone limits itself quite a bit (especially for the two bands with drummers) so the sound you're going to hear is not at all what things actually sounded like. It sounded better.

Erie Choir
Erie Choir played first and featured a trimmed down, two person lineup. Having heard their songs before the show I was prepared to enjoy the set but I wasn't really ready to like their songs as much as I did. The songs, the melodies, the vibe, the performance - everything - was excellent. I highly recommend checking out this band in whatever way you can.

Schooner
Schooner is a band I've been familiar with for nearly the entire 1.25 year history of EAR FARM. I got to see them once before at Lit Lounge here in the city and the show at Bickett Gallery was the complete opposite. That's a good thing. Not that they were bad, in any way, the first time I saw them, but Lit Lounge just isn't the sweetest of venues. It sucks. Schooner, however, does not. They rocked the art gallery in a mellow countrified fashion and showed that they've grown a bit as a band since I last saw them live. Their sound is more focused, their energy more unified, and their songs...as fantastic as ever. The Rocky P. tour EP they gave me has been on heavy iPod rotation the past week and you can look forward to seeing them live here in NYC soon. I promise, I'm working on it. (by the way, my camera mic had the toughest time with Schooner's sound, given how many different things it was trying to pick up all at once)

Scott Phillips
Scott Phillips, please come and play every single EAR FARM Presents... show ever. Okay, maybe I don't really have a realistic impression of Scott's original music (given that he played an accordion busking set made up entirely of cover songs) but how can it be anything but spectacular? Let me put it to you this way, at one point he played these songs in succession: "I Won't Share You", "But Not Tonight", and "The Saturday Boy". Yes, again, that's The Smiths, Depeche Mode, and Billy Bragg... back to back to back. And "But Not Tonight"?! That's only like my favorite Depeche Mode song. Is there any quicker way to my musical heart? Not unless a Poison song was worked in there somewhere. Scott will definitely be coming up to NYC for some shows, I'll let you know when that happens.

Taigaa
Taigaa was the odd band out in this lineup in a few ways. One, they're from Brooklyn, not NC. Two, their sound is much more experimental and not as rooted in rock/country/folk as the others. Yet somehow they fit perfectly as the closers of the show. I'm guessing they stretched the tastes of some of the audience members a little bit, with their wide open sense of adventure and performance, and I'm guessing the audience enjoyed this. It was very evident actually. Taigaa explodes and implodes, loves and hates, dances and sleeps, all within the span of one song. In a sense, they're the perfect art gallery band given their minimalist exploration of the artistic side of things musical. I most definitely recommend checking them out.

Again, I'd really like to thank all of the bands who played. Thanks to Bickett Gallery for hosting such an excellent night and thanks a million to everyone who came out to the show. It was a blast and I definitely plan to do more EAR FARM sponsored shows in the Raleigh area in the future.

These have both been with him since his arrival, and they seem to be women of excellent character. The professor is writing a learned book, and he found it necessary, about a year ago, to engage a secretary. The first two that he tried were not successes, but the third, Mr. Willoughby Smith, a very young man straight from the university, seems to have been just what his employer wanted. His work consisted in writing all the morning to the professor's dictation, and he usually spent the evening in hunting up references and passages which bore upon the next day's work. This Willoughby Smith has nothing against him, either as a boy at Uppingham or as a young man at Cambridge. I have seen his testimonials, and from the first he was a decent, quiet, hard-working fellow, with no weak spot in him at all. And yet this is the lad who has met his death this morning in the professor's study under circumstances which can point only to murder."

Pioneer 11 carried out the first flyby of Saturn in September 1979, when it passed within 20,000 km of the planet's cloud tops. Images were taken of the planet and a few of its moons, although their resolution was too low to discern surface detail. The spacecraft also studied Saturn's rings, revealing the thin F-ring and the fact that dark gaps in the rings are bright when viewed at high phase angle (towards the sun), meaning that they contain fine light-scattering material. In addition, Pioneer 11 measured the temperature of Titan.

He said earlier it was "the first time that on such an important religious day in Afghanistan terrorism of that horrible nature is taking place".

The blasts coincided with the Shia Muslim festival of Ashura - the most important day in the Shia calendar which is marked with a public holiday in Afghanistan.

Ashura is the climax of Muharram, the month of mourning for the martyrdom of the Prophet Muhammad's grandson.

Though tensions exist between Afghanistan's Sunni and minority Shia Muslims, most attacks in Afghanistan in recent years have targeted government officials or international forces, correspondents say.

Victorian Supreme Court Justice Lex Lasry said it was an "appalling murder and is offending near the top of any notional range of offending".

"It was a killing which appears to demonstrate your belief that you have some special entitlement to kill when you think it appropriate or your ego demands it according to some meaningless underworld prison code," he said.

"I am left with no choice but to punish what you have done with an appropriately heavy sentence."

CCTV footage of the incident showed Williams sitting in the prison's recreation room reading a newspaper with a front-page story about himself.

The French called their first greenhouses orangeries, since they were used to protect orange trees from freezing. As pineapples became popular pineries, or pineapple pits, were built. Experimentation with the design of greenhouses continued during the Seventeenth Century in Europe as technology produced better glass and construction techniques improved.

The addition of sand to bogs and clay soil created fertile soil for agriculture, and around 1850, grapes were grown in the first greenhouses, simple glass constructions with one of the sides consisting of solid wall. By the early 20th century, greenhouses began to be constructed of nothing but glass, and they began to be heated.

The roadmap idea originated with the EU, the Alliance of Small Island States (Aosis) and the Least Developed Countries bloc (LDCs).

They are concerned that without a new legal agreement eventually covering emissions from all countries - particularly fast-growing major emitters such as China - the global average temperature since pre-industrial times will rise by more than 2C, the internationally-agreed threshold.
