Euro festivals go pop!
Mon, 22 Jun 2009 01:04:00 +0100The musician Neil Young will tonight entertain thousands of fans at the Isle of Wight festival before packing up his guitar and heading off to a sold-out Glastonbury, where he will headline along with Bruce Springsteen and a reformed Blur in a fortnight's time. Despite the uncertainties of our summer weather, the credit crunch, and, in many cases, the same acts doing the rounds, Britain's music festival season is in full swing and rude health. Along with Glastonbury and the Isle of Wight, there will be T in the Park, Womad, V, Reading, Latitude and Bestival to name just a few of more than 100 planned between now and the end of September. But across Europe it's a different story. In what was once a burgeoning market, particularly in eastern Europe, long starved of Western music during the Cold War, the festival circuit faces crisis. From Denmark's giant Roskilde – Europe's second biggest festival after Glastonbury – to Romania's B'esfest and Hungary's Sziget – promoters are struggling to sell tickets, despite such normally guaranteed draws as Coldplay, Oasis, Fat Boy Slim, the Prodigy and Kanye West. The problem is the new global economics which makes a festival in eastern Europe too expensive for the people who live in those countries feeling the brunt of the recession – and costs are going up. As local currencies weaken, the fees of mainly Western performers become more difficult to meet; and promoters can no longer rely on Western visitors, for whom the ticket... (Read complete news)
Worth It All?
Sat, 13 Jun 2009 04:35:00 +0100Wow. Vacations are a lot of work. Sometimes while I'm packing endless items into the camper, and sorting and baking and washing and planning, I wonder if it's all worth it. Then as I sit by the lake in my lounge chair, letting my clothes soak in all the smoke from the campfire, I know it is worth it all. We were at the most beautiful campground at Mayfield lake in Mossyrock, Wa. We were visited by 1 raccoon, 2 deer, 1 baby rabbit, 4 chipmunks and 2 squirrels. Not to mention various bugs and other cooties. One night, just as we sat down to dinner by the fire, we were deluged upon by a sudden thunder storm of moderate proportions. So we scrambled under the over hang of our camper and let the rain fall all around us -determined not to let nature get the best of us. Ran over a log in the boat, which took a bite out of our propeller, but was still able to take a most impressive ride up the Cowlitz and Tilton rivers. It was like riding down an amazon river in the jungle. Very cool. Sat by the campfire with friends telling stories and laughing. And of course, had to sneak in a golf game or two. I finally broke 100 in scoring the first round and then totally melted down on the second round. I could blame it on the new club I was trying out, but that would be a... (Read complete news)
Preperation, Preperation
Wed, 03 Jun 2009 17:50:00 +0100Getting ready to go camping. I don't know about all of you but it's exhausting. You have to plan for meals for over a week, gather clothes for all kinds of weather, make sure you have all the cords, hook ups, batteries, toiletries, golf clubs, earplugs, golf shoes, golf balls....you know. I swear I spend more days getting ready than the number of days we will be gone. It's not that I mind the preparation so much, as long as the end result is worth the effort. I'm not sure that is always the right attitude to have. Not everything... (Read complete news)
Happy Camping!
Tue, 02 Jun 2009 04:38:00 +0100It’s camping time! I haven’t been camping in years, but this year I plan to do this with my new bride. I know that she is not going to want to sleep in a sleeping bag without a camping air mattress, so finding a good one has been my duty for the past few days and I believe I have found where to find just the right one. After all I want my bride to have a smile on her face, and if she’s comfortable (and she will be!) then that smile will come!... (Read complete news)

L.A.Outback welcomes you to a sonic experience that weaves the ancient sound of the didgeridoo with the wondrous "out of this world" vibrational acoustics of the Integratron.

Take... (Read complete news)
Guitar Lesson – Tuning Your Guitar to Itself
Mon, 16 Feb 2009 23:56:00 +0100This is probably the most important piece of knowledge that you can learn when it comes to tuning your guitar. The process of tuning your guitar to itself is one by which you tune each string to another string on the guitar. Basically, it means that you can tune the guitar without having to use a tuner or pitch tool. The only set back about using this method is that your guitar may not end up in exact concert pitch. What I mean by that is that the strings may not run E, A, D, G, B, E as they would if... (Read complete news)

Wed, 25 Jun 2008 05:05:00 +0100I was on a camping trip in the Uintahs when an idea formed within the elastic folds and wrinkles of my young mind. I was fumbling over some sticks and stones by the widening stream, accompanying an unexpectedly re-acquainted childhood friend, Sam, and _her_ good friend, Marie. This was The Camping Trip. A lifetime of choices made and consequences avoided and faced culminating in this moment. Environments supportive and oppressive led Sam and Marie to go camping (Sam had never been), extending an invitation to me and several others a day or two before they left and myself deciding at...

Crash Test Dummies and Magick – The Camping Trip
Thu, 08 May 2008 03:10:00 +0100Recently, your resident black metalhead (metalhead who likes the black variety and not a man of the African-American persuasion that loves metallurgy) has been wearing out an unusual record from his collection – the Crash Test Dummies’ 1992 album _God Shuffled His Feet_. I’m sure anyone from the 90’s generation knows their song “Mmm mmm mmm mmm” about the kids who are all fucked up, but that is actually an okey dokey song rather than some of the other, stronger cuts. In particular, there are two songs called “In the Days of the Caveman” and “Here I Stand Before Me”... (Read complete news)
Night Camping Scene
Mon, 07 Apr 2008 20:02:00 +0100Have you ever been camping , it's late at night and you're in your sleeping bag all comfy and cozy when you hear something outside the tent? It may be footsteps or a snorting sound. But from the sound it seems like something heavier than say a squirrel or a raccoon. And all that's separating you from it is the thin nylon material of the tent. It can be a tense few moments. This picture is a miniature still in progress of a night camping scene that will incorporate the above elements for the monster short.... (Read complete news)

Sun, 10 Feb 2008 03:04:00 +0100Hola de nuevo. Me colgué de una internet inalámbrica así que puedo ponerme a escribir un cacho y subir algunas fotos.
