The seventh dotmatrix project brought together two greensboro songwriters, historians, and musicians. Yet both ladies, accomplished musicians in well-known bands across the Carolinas and beyond kept reminding the audience to be kind: This solo performance was a first for both.

 

Riannon Giddens is a world-traveling musician with the black string preservation band, The Carolina Chocolate Drops. The project was one of her first solo debuts, relying only occasionally on the support of Laurelyn Dossett and guitarist Scott Manring. Her roots music included a few original tunes, such as the ballsy-blues girl ballad, "Two-time Loser." And with her early vocal training at the prestigious Oberlin Conservatory, Rhiannon performed a multi-lingual, multi-cultural act, singing in languages known only in the Gaelic-Scottish regions, plus "Mal Hombre" in Spanish, and "Slaves Lament." A regularly touring musician, Rhiannon made the most of the hometown gig, and brought her sister on stage for gospel songs that featured harmonies only possible from a childhood spent singing together. Off her usual repertoire, however, Rhiannon dropped in a tune she's always wanted to sing, she said, Patsy Cline's, "I Fall to Pieces."

 

Laurelyn Dossett also made a break from her regular appearances with Polecat Creek, and sang songs she's written for the band, and more recently, songs she's created for the original "playsical" projects at Triad Stage, such as "Brother Wolf" and "Bloody Blackbeard." While Dossett played solo, she played many songs originally written for the bluegrass and Old Time string, such as "Midway Road" and "The Island," off the band's new album "Ordinary Seasons." With a story behind every tune, Dossett is something of a modern historian, writing songs that tell stories from the Piedmont region, such as "Leaving Eden," which chronicles the night drive of a mother and her children as they leave a community built on and later burned by a collapsing textile industry. One hot October night in early 2000 inspired "Surry County's" burning. With guitarist Scott Manring, and vocalist Rhiannon Giddens occasionally joining her on set, Laurelyn rocked a set that's usually reserved for the more, well, reserved audience.

 

And the audience came to listen. Before the first guitar was tuned, listeners lined up chairs, settling in with their dark brews in tall pint glasses, only breaking the silence to applaud, stomp, sing along, or laugh.

For four days (29 August - 1 September 2017) Southeastern are operating some trains into London Waterloo using the former Eurostar viaduct from Stewarts Lane. During this period (and the following weekend) Waterloo East and Charing Cross are closed while Thameslink works between New Cross and London Bridge are commissioned.

Electronic message on a Piccadilly line train. Did not change.

the fifth dotmatrix project brought together two greensboro acts, each with little time playing together, yet both with big, unique sounds. project tritium kicked off the evening with james marshall owen dropping his bowie-esque delivery and jagger-esque stage presence over highly composed music and sounds that at times seemed improvised. the raving knaves then took the stage (and our sound engineer) and rocked their set with a variety of kinetic, powerpop tunes. david mclean's hips might still be gyrating. a fine time had by all.

the fourth dotmatrix project shook, stirred and mixed it up real nice. tom beardslee kicked off the night with his storytelling blues playing and then possum jenkins simply brought down the house. all due respect to shooter jennings, but these guys put the "o" back in country that night.

The huge departures and arrivals information board at London Liverpool Street Railway Station.

 

In 2007 this dot matrix board replaced the popular and great fun to watch 'flapper board' display which was the largest of its type in the United Kingdom.

Aerial insect detection survey summary report, "Extent of Damage in Oregon in 1979 by Reporting Area and B.F." This page shows tree damage summarized for ranger districts on the Deschutes National Forest in Oregon.

 

Note: Acreage was calculated by planimeter and/or dot-counting the insect and disease polygons on paper aerial survey maps. Volumes were then calculated using numbers of dead trees, tree species, and an average volume/tree/Reporting Area. These data were summarized in Fort Collins, Colorado.

 

This process was replaced with a Geographic Information System (GIS) in Region 6 in 1988. All of these early reports were eventually replaced by more precise geospatial data.

 

Date: February 1, 1979
