Founded in 1993, the Krewe of Orpheus takes its name from the musically-inclined son of Zeus and Calliope. Founding members included Harry Connick, both the junior and senior.

In New Orleans, the krewe established themselves as a superkrewe with their first parade in 1994, which rolled with 700 riders. They were the first super Krewe to allow both male and female riders.

The Krewe's throws include a number of popular items including emblem beads, stuffed animals, signature beads, light-up Orpheus medallion beads, cups, three different types of doubloons, and 4-foot-long stuffed dragons.

They have a number of notable floats including the Dolly Trolley, the horse-drawn bus that was used in the opening of Hello Dolly with Barbra Streisand, the Smoking Mary which is a six unit float that looks like a steam locomotive, a Trojan horse and the Orpheus Leviathan Float, which is a three unit, 139-foot float, and the first Carnival float to use extensive fiber optic lighting.

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Fats Domino wass the honorary grand marshall for 2014. His eldest son, Antoine Domino III, rode in the parade and perform his 85 year old father's music.

In addition to Fats Domino, Quentin Tarantino reigned as the krewe's celebrity monarch.

Founded in 1993, the Krewe of Orpheus takes its name from the musically-inclined son of Zeus and Calliope. Founding members included Harry Connick, both the junior and senior.

In New Orleans, the krewe established themselves as a superkrewe with their first parade in 1994, which rolled with 700 riders. They were the first super Krewe to allow both male and female riders.

The Krewe's throws include a number of popular items including emblem beads, stuffed animals, signature beads, light-up Orpheus medallion beads, cups, three different types of doubloons, and 4-foot-long stuffed dragons.

They have a number of notable floats including the Dolly Trolley, the horse-drawn bus that was used in the opening of Hello Dolly with Barbra Streisand, the Smoking Mary which is a six unit float that looks like a steam locomotive, a Trojan horse and the Orpheus Leviathan Float, which is a three unit, 139-foot float, and the first Carnival float to use extensive fiber optic lighting.

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Fats Domino wass the honorary grand marshall for 2014. His eldest son, Antoine Domino III, rode in the parade and perform his 85 year old father's music.

In addition to Fats Domino, Quentin Tarantino reigned as the krewe's celebrity monarch.

BACKSTORY: OMG! Another totally amazing show! We got to hang out with Nic Endo afterwards! We bummed a cigarette from some other guy, and then she tried to offer us one. That is to say, she is very nice! AE drove us again this year. Greg Z and Akira also went. Clint asked Nic Endo if she still carries floppy discs (of course!). People (including Clint) got on the stage again this year, and Carolyn saw an audience member accidently bump into Alec Empire and push him off the stage. He seemed ok, though. Nobody else seemed to notice that happen except Carolyn.

After years of searching, a new re-issue of the highly influential album by Brian Eno and David Byrne.

-----------------------------------------

My Life in the Bush of Ghosts is the first collaborative album by Brian Eno and David Byrne, released in February 1981. The album borrows its title from Amos Tutuola's 1954 novel of the same name, and musically integrates sampled vocals and found sounds, African and Middle Eastern rhythms, and electronic music techniques.[4] Recorded by Eno and Byrne prior to their work on Talking Head's fourth album Remain in Light (1980), sample clearance issues delayed its release until several months after the latter.

While it initially received mixed reviews, My Life is now widely regarded as a high point in the discographies of Eno and Byrne.[5][6] AllMusic critic John Bush describes it as a "pioneering work for countless styles connected to electronics, ambience and Third World music".[3] The extensive use of sampling on the album is widely considered ground-breaking and innovative, though its actual influence on the sample-based music genres that later emerged continues to be debated.[7][8] Pitchfork listed it as the 21st best album of the 1980s, while Slant Magazine listed the album at No. 83 on its list of the "Best Albums of 1980s".

Eno and Byrne first worked together while collaborating on More Songs About Buildings and Food, the 1978 album by Byrne's band Talking Heads. My Life was primarily recorded during a break between touring for Fear of Music (1979) and the recording of Remain in Light (1980), subsequent Talking Heads albums also produced by Eno, but the release was delayed while legal rights were sought for the large number of samples used throughout the album.[10] Eno described the album as a "vision of a psychedelic Africa."[11]

The "found objects" credited to Eno and Byrne were common objects used mostly as percussion. In the notes for the 2006 expanded edition of the album, Byrne writes that they would often use a normal drum kit, but with a cardboard box replacing the bass drum, or a frying pan replacing the snare drum; this would blend the familiar drum sound with unusual percussive noises.[full citation needed] Rather than conventional pop or rock singing, most of the vocals are sampled from other sources, such as commercial recordings of Arabic singers, radio disc jockeys, and an exorcist. Musicians had previously used similar sampling techniques, but critic Dave Simpson declares it had never before been used "to such cataclysmic effect" as on My Life.[12]

In 2001, Q magazine asked Eno whether he and Byrne had invented sampling. He replied:

“No, there was already a history of it. People such as Holger Czukay had made experiments using IBM Dictaphones and short-wave radios and so on. The difference was, I suppose, that I decided to make it the lead vocal on the album My Life in the Bush of Ghosts[13]”

The album was recorded entirely with analog technology, before the advent of digital sequencing and MIDI. The sampled voices were synchronized with the instrumental tracks via trial and error, a practice that was often frustrating, but which also produced several happy accidents.[citation needed]

According to Byrne’s 2006 sleeve notes, neither he nor Eno had read Tutuola’s novel before the album was recorded, but felt the title apt:

“At some point during this African obsession [during the recording] we became aware of Amos Tutuola’s books, and the title of one—My Life in the Bush of Ghosts—seemed to encapsulate what this record was about. We hadn’t yet read this particular book (his The Palm-Wine Drinkard was more easily available), but the title was perfect, so that became the name of the record.

Tamara was a musically gifted girl and holder of the Heart Stone. She trained three baby magical animals - Cleo (a unicorn), Sugar (a dragon), and Spike (a panther). In the second season, she got her own zebracorn named Shadowsong.

It's just a life story, so there's no climax. No more new territory, so pull away the IMAX. In the slot that you sliced through the scene there was no shyness. In the plot that you passed through your teeth there was no pity. No fade in: film begins on a kid in the big city. And no cut to a costly parade that's for him only. No dissolve to a sliver of grey - that's his new lady, where she glows just like grain on the flickering pane of some great movie. (Hey, I'd watch it.)

They weren't jamming just musically, but completely jammed the street traffic as well :-)

---

The street performance went on at the main city square at first. There were two main stages, plus three or four tiny single-person-stages erected for it, and the play kept switching between them, forcing spectators to shuffle around every few minutes.

It was a real killer of a show to photograph, since I had to push through the crowd every time [using my monopod as a truncheon - just kidding ;) ] to get any shot at all - missing half of it in the process...

Besides, they were splashing with water all the time (yeah, the performance was called H2O for a good reason), so I didn't risk putting the external flash on the camera.

And then, in the middle of it, the performers suddenly embarked a boat (yes - that bright thing on the photo), towed by a really weird steaming and smoking three-wheel vehicle and drove from the city square down the street, followed by the marching band on stilts and the rest of actors on rollerblades.

The spectators had no choice but to follow as well, and that made it even harder to get any decent shots (esp. since I had the flash still safely tucked away in my backpack - grrrrr!).

So I struggled with the backpack with one hand, camera and monopod in the other, while running down the street, zigzagging between performers and spectators, stopping every now and then to click a shot or two.

At the end of this street, they turned down towards the river, where the last part of the performance took place - with lots of squirting water and splashing around, accompanied by a dolphin playing an accordion (oh, yes!) - and the grand finale of launching the boat downstream.

You've got to be kidding me!

We had fif-teen de-grees cen-ti-grade last weekend!

How can it be snowing again??

I mean, don't get me wrong, I love snow and all, but we're in MARCH! How can it be sooo warm on one day, that even I, who's always cold, leave the apartment in a t-shirt, and then 4 days later it SNOWS??

Man :(

It took me half an hour to walk home from school today, the roads were soo damn slippery and wet and ugly. Normally I need 10 minutes.

Sorry. I don't usually get mad at the weather like this, lol. But after the amazing weather last Sunday I really can't see snow anymore!! :))

Anyway, this is my way of telling the sky to stop crying. Rain and snow. If you ask me, the sky cried enough for this whole year. Humph.

So much for the smell of spring, haha :)

The Sun by Maroon 5

Today has been a really rough day. I feel so out of sync with the world. I challenged myself to reading soulpancake - the entire book in one day, actually - 5 hours.

It was very thought provoking and made me extremely emotional.

It caused me to think outside my comfort zone and reevaluate my life and what it means to be here.

I realized I've been a horrible and selfish person these past few semesters. So absorbed in my own little world, I never took as much time as I should figuring out what was going on in the world outside of the "me me me" world I cultivated for myself.

I'm really excited and ready for the Project Soul Pancake year long challenge.

I was feeling really depressed today, and when i left work found myself at the cemetery. I know this sounds like the creepiest thing, but I walked, without a phone, without facebook, without anything but me and my camera. I visited gravestones and left pinecones (they were the only things I found around).

I stumbled upon a little boy, Guisto was his last name, I dont remember his first. He died in 1987 at the age of 4. He had no flowers. no ornaments, no sign of visitors. He was forgotten by his parents. I left him two pine cones. I was too chicken to sit there and spill what was bothering me to a total dead stranger.

I cant talk to anyone. I've become so private. this needs to change. I hope soulpancake can do that for me.

More than a thousand people enjoyed the first Imjin Proms on Saturday.

The concert and outdoor festival event raised money for three military service charity associations with entertainment ranging from a musically choreographed Spitfire display to children's activities.

"The weather's held off and it's been a fantastic evening, with a fantastic range of music, with parachutists, and airplanes, and it's all just been going very well from my point of view," said Simon Footer, the main event coordinator from the Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund.

Imjin Barracks, a Royal Air Force base that served for decades, has been home since 2010 to the event's other main host, NATO's Allied Rapid Reaction Corps

Lt.Gen. Tim Evans, ARRC commander, welcomed the crowd with gratitude, wishing everyone a splendid evening, and thanking Aramark and other sponsors. The general envisioned the event more than a year ago to be a way for Imjin and other nearby military communities to share a memorable evening with Gloucestershire.

Sharing the experience of the Spitfire display brought many emotions to the diverse crowd. Presenter Peter Dickson said he was moved by the arial display, as that plane holds a special place in British hearts, answering a call in the 1940's with young pilots when "our backs were really against the wall, it delivered the effect we needed." Remembering them and the sacrifice of so many is important and one theme for the evening, he continued. The whole night has "surpassed expectation."

"I've painted many of them as a kid, but that's the first time I've ever seen one," said presenter Lewis Macleod, in a sincere moment backstage when he wasn't keeping the crowd laughing with his voice impressions between acts. "It was really beautiful."

The plane flew to classical music played by The Band of the Royal Air Force College, who also lit up the evening with a finale and fireworks around 10 pm. Other music included a pop-music cover set by the Adjutant Generals Corps' Band who got people up and dancing from their picnic blankets and chairs. The crowd also witnessed the precision of The Royal Marines Band and 19th Regimental Royal Artillery Pipes and Drums.

Children representing their school's talent, the Innsworth Military Wives Choir, and many others performed during the evening to the local crowd. The event succeeded in opening the gates of Imjin to the community and there is a hope to see more of these kinds of events in future.

I didnt get home and pass out until 4am, in which I had to wake up again at 8am to get ready to go to Sarasota with Burnt Umber to shoot architecture and the Ringling Museum. (That also meant I had a great time)

then we proceeded to look for eagles that did not appear for photo opps. :|

then i had to quickly high-tail it out once I got home to go shoot a maternity session with Danielle. :)

Roxy Music are an English art rock group formed in 1971 by Bryan Ferry, who became the group's lead vocalist and chief songwriter. The other members are Phil Manzanera (guitar), Andy Mackay (saxophone and oboe) and Paul Thompson (drums and percussion). Former members include Brian Eno (synthesizer and "treatments"), and Eddie Jobson (synthesizer and violin). Although the band took a break from group activities in 1983, they reunited for a concert tour in 2001, and have toured together intermittently since that time.

Roxy Music attained popular and critical success in the UK, Europe and Australia during the 1970s and early 1980s, beginning with their debut album, Roxy Music (1972).[1] The band was highly influential, as leading proponents of the more experimental, musically sophisticated element of glam, as well as a significant influence on early English punk music. They also provided a model for many New Wave acts and the experimental electronic groups of the early 1980s. The group is distinguished by their visual and musical sophistication and their preoccupation with style and glamour.[2] Ferry and co-founding member Eno have also had influential solo careers, the latter becoming one of the most significant record producers and collaborators of the late 20th century.

Rolling Stone magazine ranked Roxy Music #98 on its "The Immortals – 100 The Greatest Artists of All Time" list.[3]

A new studio album, which would have been their ninth, began recording in 2005. It would have been Roxy's first record with Brian Eno since 1973, who wrote two songs for it as well as played keyboards.[4] However, Bryan Ferry eventually confirmed that material from these sessions would be released as a Ferry solo album, with Eno playing on "a couple of tracks,"[5] and that he doesn't think they'll record as Roxy Music again.[6] Subsequently, this was confirmed by the announcement of a solo Bryan Ferry album, entitled Olympia.

I challenge you to go on a voyage

a voyage of exploration

to discover the wonder that is me

to accept my lack of knowledge

as naivity

to cry with laughter with me

and to cry of sorrow with me

to find a sense of wisdom

in my nonsense

to accept my flaws

that define me

I challenge you to discover the wonder

that is me, that is my heart

capture it

devour it

One of this week's musically challenged songs made me think of a treasure map. With lines across my face, according to the lyrics. It took a few hours, but here it is. Somehow it didn't work with my eyes open, but that's okay. I like it better this way.

It's true, I was made for you

Remembering them and the sacrifice of so many is important and one theme for the evening, he continued. The whole night has "surpassed expectation."

"I've painted many of them as a kid, but that's the first time I've ever seen one," said presenter Lewis Macleod, in a sincere moment backstage when he wasn't keeping the crowd laughing with his voice impressions between acts. "It was really beautiful."

The plane flew to classical music played by The Band of the Royal Air Force College, who also lit up the evening with a finale and fireworks around 10 pm. Other music included a pop-music cover set by the Adjutant Generals Corps' Band who got people up and dancing from their picnic blankets and chairs. The crowd also witnessed the precision of The Royal Marines Band and 19th Regimental Royal Artillery Pipes and Drums.

Children representing their school's talent, the Innsworth Military Wives Choir, and many others performed during the evening to the local crowd. The event succeeded in opening the gates of Imjin to the community and there is a hope to see more of these kinds of events in future.
