12th Annual
Community Cookout
At
Pamplin Grove
Humboldt County, CA
July 3, 4 & 5, 2015
Certain places and special stuff happen only in Humboldt: The old growth Redwoods hold beings of myth and mystery; creatures of the river, creatures of the canopy. Once a year they come out to party serious. It's good to be there with them when they do... Richard’s annual Party at Pamplin Grove.------
Richard Salzman invites you to get wild again during his once-a-year gathering at Pamplin Grove ON THE 4TH!
The 12th Annual Community Cookout at Pamplin Grove - in Humboldt County, California USA,
held this year on the weekend of July 4th, 2015.
This is a majestic cathedral of old growth redwoods on the banks of the Van Duzen River. Ask anyone who’s been! It is a fabulous place to stay the weekend, or to cruise in for dinner on Saturday.
Warm your heart with thoughts of skinny dipping the Van Duzen in the hot summer's sun, ...be wild.
Friends, family and well behaved dogs are all welcome. Individual campsites sleeps from 1 to 15 people. If you play an instrument, bring it. You can pretty much get all you want to eat up at the cookhouse, so if you are camping, you don't need much more then a tent, a sleeping bag and pad to be comfortable. Interesting people in abundance. Music, sunshine, volleyball, horseshoes, swimming holes and a bonfire are included.
Gates open at noon on Friday July 3rd and the big potluck dinner is on Saturday afternoon the 4th. A breakfast will be served at the cookhouse on Sunday morning the 5th and a supper late in the day Sunday for those wishing to stay another night.
Car pools from the airport and loaner camping gear can be arranged for out of town guests, and if you don't want to camp, there are motels in nearby Fortuna. You are also welcome to just come out for the day and enjoy the big potluck on Saturday!
Please RSVP ASAP and mark your calendar now and plan to be with the wild things in Humboldt County on July 4th 2015.

Goodbye Lou Reed, illustration by Davide Bonazzi + links to live shows in NYC and Florence Italy

From Dave Thompson of Roio on
LOU REED
New York 1973 [no label, 1CD]Live at Alice Tully Hall, New York, January 27, 1973. Ex SBD stereo, very clean sound.
It was official. Hell had frozen over, pigs were flying, and Lou Reed was on the edge of superstardom, beating out of every radio in the land with those colored girls going “doo doo doo.” Less than three weeks after this concert, Walk On The Wild Side would become Reed’s first (and so far, only) Billboard chart entry - which, in turn, means this is one of the last recordings you’re going to hear where he’s playing to the converted alone, before the chart-hopping masses stopped grooving to Grand Funk and got into Heroin instead.
A partisan New York audience makes him feel at home, though, and if the band is a little fussier than subsequent Reed combos, the nifty little guitar licks and drum fills that flicker and flash through every song give the performance a cheerful buoyancy that Lou rarely permitted in later years.
Walk And Talk It is pure pop, of course. But so is the opening White Light, and if Waiting For The Man has a subdued sobriety, an unknown onstage voice makes up for it when it demands “cut down on the feedback!” Cut down on the feedback at a Lou Reed gig? Yeah, right.
Oh, and while Heroin is probably the perkiest you’ve ever heard, the encore Sister Ray is positive Partridge Family territory, so cheerful and chipper that you’d never believe that it still rates among the most forebodingly sinister songs Reed has ever written. Shame it truncates at eight minutes, though; there are a longer versions available on other period recordings, and they’re even bouncier!
Excellent (if a teensy bit treble-y) sound, great stereo separation and a solid set that marches through Velvets and solo highlights alike, this might not be the best 1972-1973 era Reed show available, but it’s certainly one of the best quality. - Dave Thompson

I was honored on snapfame.com, a blog by Jan Carpenter Tucker a friend and client of 30 years, for the diversity displayed in the invitation to my "10th Annual Community Gathering at Pamplin Grove". Artist Oli Winward deserves the bulk of the credit for how he chose to depict diversity in the people represented in his wonderful cover illustration.
