Podcasts about bonnaroo festival

Bonnaroo Festival was cancelled after just 1 day due to severe weather. A newcomer in the country scene is already the 2nd highest selling country artist of all time. Bullying is alive and well: Today's victim is Michael Jackson's daughter. Plus: 10 years ago this week, and Fake or Fame?

While Bonnaroo and Big Ears Festival take place three months and 150 miles apart, both events were created by Knoxville native Ashley Capps. Plus, both festivals have become known for their diverse lineups and their unofficial status as music discovery festivals.  Knox News journalists Ryan Wilusz and Brianna Paciorka, who have regularly attended both festivals over the years, dive into the respective lineups to share their top picks from both bills. Listen as they discuss why each of their most anticipated artists are must-sees and why anyone on the fence about purchasing tickets should plan to attend.   "The Scruffy Stuff" is presented by knoxnews.com.

“Haleh Liza Gafori’s ecstatic and piercing translation has lifted a veil, bringing Rumi closer into the quick of our present. Each poem is a divine invitation. Free your mind. Drown in love.” —V (formerly Eve Ensler) With black curls twirling across her shoulders, Haleh Liza Gafori — a poet, translator, vocalist, and educator — stands on a stage, performs a poem of Rumi that she translated into English, then bursts into song in Persian. As her voice echoes across the room, she evokes the divine ecstasy and vision this great mystic poet is known for — expressing in an intimate manner entirely her own. For well over a decade, Gafori has inspirited and taught the poetry of Persian poets across various universities, festivals, museums, and institutions. A bicultural woman of Persian descent raised in New York, Gafori’s ears are highly attuned to both American poetry and the Persian text. As a child, she listened to her parents recite Rumi’s Persian poetry. “It’s very common for Iranians to memorize poetry,” she explains, saying she would hear these words but not quite understand. But the energy the lines carried, and their effects on the listeners made an early, indelible imprint on her.  As an adult, she began reading Rumi in English. “It was interesting that American translators kind of pointed me back to my roots," she says. For Gafori, Rumi’s words offer ancient wisdom pertinent to our current time: What do his poems tell us about ego death, compassion, greed, generosity, selflessness, soul, and the cultivation of ecstasy? What is his liberating take on death? Then she began singing in Persian, and eventually, translating these same poems. “As someone who can look at the Persian and look at the English,” she reflects, “one can see, oh, we don't have these lines here, we're missing these lines, or wow, this is a great, well done translation here, or oh my God, what in the world was happening here? It's a mixture. It's a mixed bag.” Her new book, Gold, is a fresh selection and translation of Rumi’s poems — its title a reference to Rumi and other Sufi poets being alchemists, transforming mental states and feeling states into “the deepest love, the deepest generosity, the most expansive consciousness that we can touch, the ecstatic.” Former Chancellor of the Academy of American Poets Marilyn Hacker describes Gold as “the work of someone who is at once an acute and enamored reader of the original Farsi text, a dedicated miner of context and backstory, and, best of all, a marvelous poet in English.” Gafori explains that the book is a collection sourced from the Divan-e Shams-e Tabrizi, a sprawling text of over 40,000 verses. Each poem here had to be cut from this endless cloth, reshuffled, styled with modern enjambments, and, finally, translated. Perhaps it’s more accurate to think of Gold not as a translation of one medieval mystical poet by a modern poet, but as a collaboration between two equal poets that spans centuries. I saw myself sharp as a thorn. I fled to the softness of petals. I saw myself sour as vinegar. I mixed myself with sugar. An aching eye seeing through pain, a stewing pot of poison, I was both. Reaching for the antidote, I touched compassion. I touched mercy. After a BS in Biological Sciences from Stanford University, Gafori received an MFA in creative writing from City College of New York. Her thesis — comprised of original poems, as well as translations of Persian poets like Sohrap Sepehri and Omran Salahi — earned her an Academy of American Poets Prize and the Goodman Grant for Poetry. She has been featured at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Fetzer Institute’s Gathering on Love and Forgiveness, Bowery Poetry Club, and Verses of Hope hosted by the Marginalian (formerly Brainpickings). For the poetry journal Rattapallax, Gafori served as a guest editor of the New Persian Poetry section. In addition to her gifts as a poet, Gafori is also a musician. For current and past musical projects, including Haale (former spelling of her name, “Haleh”) and The Mast, Gafori toured across the US and Europe, including stops at One Note at Carnegie Hall, the Lincoln Center Out of Doors Festival, and the Bonnaroo Festival. Her albums have received critical acclaim, and her songs have appeared in the NBC’s series “Life” and the CWTV’s series “The Originals.” In 2018, she translated, composed, and performed in a collaborative multi-media project, “Ask Hafez,” supported by the Queens Council on the Arts. Like the poems she translates, Gafori’s voice is timeless, and her offerings are perhaps best observed or listened to. We invite you to find a quiet space to sample one of them here. Please join us in conversation with this gifted poet and musician who infuses new vitality into ancient love and wisdom.

Ayer se cumplieron 3 años de la muerte de Tom Petty. El 2 de Octubre de 2017 recibimos aquella triste noticia. Tom Petty había sido encontrado inconsciente a consecuencia de un paro cardíaco y fue trasladado al Centro Médico de UCLA en Santa Mónica, California, donde falleció. Fue una sobredosis "accidental" de medicamentos para paliar el dolor de su cadera rota, el insomnio, la ansiedad y la depresión. Estaba celebrando sus 40 años de carrera con una gran gira y faltaban 18 días para que hubiera cumplido 67 años. Los más fieles seguidores de Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, aquellos que se inscribieron en el Highway Companions Fan Club de la banda, recibieron una copia de Hypnotic Eye, el último trabajo del grupo por entonces, y un álbum exclusivo grabado en directo y titulado Live 2013 con tomas de las actuaciones de Tom Petty el año anterior en el Beacon Theatre de Nueva York y el Fonda Theatre de Los Angeles, además de algunos de los momentos más destacados de su aparición en el Bonnaroo Festival. De su paso por la Gran Manzana queda esta versión impecable de “So You Want To Be A Rock N' Roll Star”, una canción compuesta por Jim McGuinn y Chris Hillman para que los Byrds la incluyeran en su LP de 1967, Younger Than Yesterday. Estoy convencido de que Tom Petty siempre soñó que era el miembro oculto de los Byrds. Una implacable versión de “I Feel a Whole Lot Better” abría en 1989 la segunda cara del primer LP en solitario de Tom Petty, Full Moon Fever, y es un ejemplo más de la adoración que el artista de Florida tenía por los Byrds. La colaboración con Jeff Lynne fue fundamental en aquel sonido. Sin embargo, en un principio, la compañía discográfica no estaba satisfecha con el disco y se plantearon no publicarlo ya que, decían, que no había ni un single para editar. "Free Fallin'" les hizo cambiar de opinión. Fue la mejor despedida de la década de los 90. Aunque nos pueda parecer mentira, esta obra de arte llamada "Leave Virginia Alone" es una de las 10 canciones que quedaron fuera de la primitiva edición de Wildflowers. El artista de Gainsville la compuso en el 93, un año antes de la edición del disco. Eso sí, algún seguidor impenitente de Rod Stewart, como nuestro amigo Ignacio, la recordará formando parte de su álbum del 95 A Spanner in the Works. Por suerte, Mark Seliger y Adria Petty, hija de Tom, han conformado un vídeo delicioso protagonizado por la actriz Casimere Jollette, de la serie de Netflix sobre el mundo del ballet Tiny Pretty Things. Hay personajes inolvidables, en el mejor de los sentidos, y ese es el caso de Tom Petty, el artista de Florida que nos abandonó hace tres años. Su carrera en solitario nos dejó tres álbumes impagables y el segundo de ellos, el mítico Wildflowers de 1994 se convirtió en una de las joyas de su discografía. En realidad, todos los Heartbreakers estuvieron al lado de su líder, excepto el batería Stan Lynch que fue sustituido por Steve Ferrone. “Somewhere Under Heaven” forma parte del segundo de los álbumes de la reedición de Wildflowers, en concreto el llamado All The Rest. Era una de las 10 canciones que quedaron fuera de la edición original de 1994. "Crawling Back to You" reflejó, como todo aquel Wildflowers, los 20 años de fracaso de Tom Petty en su matrimonio con Jane Benyo, de quien se divorciaría dos años más tarde. Había estrofas como "Estoy tan cansado de estar cansado/Seguro que la noche seguirá al día/La mayoría de las cosas que me preocupan/Nunca suceden de todos modos". Las sesiones de grabación de Wildflowers comenzaron en 1992, cuando el músico de Florida tenía la intención de dar continuidad a su debut en solitario Full Moon Fever del 89. Pero Petty había llegado a un acuerdo con Warner, con quien había grabado como miembro de los Traveling Wilburys, a pesar de que junto a los Heartbreakers pertenecía a MCA. Aunque mantuvo a Rick Rubin como co-productor junto a su compañero Mike Campbell, decidió tomar el mando de aquel proyecto. Gracias a la familia de Petty y a sus archivos, se ha recuperado esta maqueta de uno de los temas punteros de aquel registro como es el caso de “You Don’t Know How It Feels”. En este caso, está grabada en su estudio casero un año antes de la edición del disco y los seguidores impenitentes del músico encontrarán diferencias en la letra, como una muestra más del proceso de creación. Esta versión de “You Don’t Know How It Feels” da una sensación mucho más íntima y personal de la original. Además, encontramos un verso que más tarde aparecería en la penúltima canción de aquel mismo álbum. Wildflowers fue el segundo álbum de Tom Petty como artista en solitario allá por 1994, que abrió con la canción que lo dio nombre genérico. Rick Rubin aportaba de nuevo su trabajo en la producción junto a Petty y Mike Campbell para llevar a cabo aquella aventura. El próximo 1 de noviembre se cumplirá un cuarto de siglo de su publicación. El próximo 16 de octubre aparecerá, por fin, Wildflowers & All The Rest, el proyecto más personal en el que Tom Petty estuvo centrado tras la publicación en 2014 de su último álbum con los Heartbreakers, Hypnotic Eye. Su intención primitiva era publicar las 10 canciones que no se incluyeron en el disco original, y que él llamaba All the Rest. Pero se ha añadido mucho más. En la cuádruple edición de lujo y dentro de las llamadas Home Recordings, con 15 cortes, de los que 12 son versiones nunca editadas y 3 son canciones inéditas, vamos a encontrar esta maqueta del tema central, “Wildflowers”, grabada en su estudio casero. A mitad de agosto de 1994 y dentro de las sesiones de grabación de Wildflowers se registró “Wake Up Time” que cerró aquel proyecto como décimo quinto tema. En esta reedición podemos escuchar la versión original, una “home recordings” y, además, esta toma alternativa que tan solo aparece en el quinto CD de la Super Deluxe Edition que han titulado Alternate Takes (Finding Wildflowers). El músico de Gainsville nunca olvidó que aquel segundo de sus álbumes en solitario de 1994 debía haber sido un disco doble, y fue dejando algunas muestras en distintas publicaciones posteriores. Tras su muerte, todos los planes de reedición se pospusieron hasta que se resolvió una demanda entre las hijas de Petty, Adria y Annakim, y su viuda Dana, el pasado año. Tom Leadon, hermano de Bernie Leadon, encontró a Tom Petty en los Epics y juntos formaron Mudcrutch en 1970 con Randall Marsh , añadiendo muy pronto a Mike Campbell y pasando a ser un quinteto tras la incorporación de Benmont Tench. La influencia de Leon Russell en la personalidad musical de Petty era relevante en aquellos tiempos y, de hecho, firmaron un contrato en 1974 con Shelter Records y se marcharon a Los Angeles, California. Publicaron un single en 1975, compuesto por él, sin ninguna repercusión y se disolvieron a finales de aquel año. Sin embargo, Petty, Campbell, y Tench, junto a Stan Lynch y Ron Blair formaron los Heartbreakers unos meses más tarde. En aquella reunión de 2007 para grabar con los miembros originales de Mudcrutch, quedaron para la historia canciones como “Orphan Of The Storm”. Tom Petty era el bajista de la banda, como su buen amigo Chris Hillman en los Byrds. The Live Anthology es una obra de arte convertida en colección de actuaciones de Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers a lo largo de su carrera que apareció hace 10 años. Existe una edición de lujo con los cuatro CDs de la edición estándar más un quinto CD de material también grabado en directo, dos DVDs nunca editados, un vinilo remasterizado de su álbum de 1976 Official Live 'Leg, y un disco Blu-ray disc con las 62 canciones de la caja, a la que se añade un poster de un concierto, reproducciones de pases de backstage, un libreto de lujo y una litografía. En ese quinto CD se encuentra esta versión del clásico “Ballad Of Easy Rider”, grabada en directo en el concierto de Nochevieja de 1978 en Santa Monica, California. Easy Rider se ha convertido en una de las películas de culto para los amantes de las road movies. Peter Fonda y Dennis Hopper la protagonizaron y dirigieron, contando con un joven Jack Nicholson entre los actores. "I Won't Back Down" será recordada por muchos como el primer single extraído del álbum Full Moon Fever, el debut de Tom Petty en solitario allá por 1989. Compuesta junto a su buen amigo Jeff Lynne, estrecho colaborador en la autoría de canciones para este registro, resultó ser un desafío contra las dificultades y la opresión. El tema fue muy radiado a raíz de los acontecimientos del 11 de Septiembre de 2011, y Tom Petty la interpretó de esta forma junto a los Heartbreakers a un ritmo más lento que el original en el espacio America: A Tribute To Heroes.

We're back at the festival circuit this week! From Pinkpop 2000's incredibly speedy sprint of a set, we change the landscape a little by bringing in the jammy atmosphere from the 2008 Bonnaroo show. Joining us to share his experiences is patron and friend of the podcast Mike Packard who was one of 80,000 that waited hours to get to see the band play. The curation of this set list was next to perfect, you had your hit songs that you'd expect from any set, but versions of Better Man, Black and Porch hover round 10 minutes long with the latter including one of Ed's most impassioned speeches about making change. Along with hits and songs that give you energetic festival vibes, they busted a few songs out for the serious collectors. Lost Dog opener All Night makes it's first ever live appearance on this show, as well as a full version of W.M.A. that hadn't been performed in that fashion since 1995. We'll also get to talk about the Kanye West controversy that came out of this show. His elaborate stage construction that took 2 hours to rig added in with his narcissistic demeanor threatening the show promoter to put him on stage at a time where no one else was playing. So Pearl Jam took advantage of the timeslot and played for an hour longer than alotted. Kanye's response? Well, it was the beginning of a massive downward spiral that we hear at LO4L don't give a rats ass about!

Transcript John Haggard 0:02 Welcome to the Miracle Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Special Guest Edition Podcast, where we interview community leaders in the Gallatin Sumner County area. And today we’re honored to have Ryan Baker. He is the director of the Sumner County Museum on the podcast. Hey Ryan, welcome to the podcast. Ryan Baker 0:20 Hi, John. Thanks for having me. John Haggard 0:21 And Ryan before we explore the Sumner County Museum in Gallatin today, for people who are new to the area or those searching on the Internet just trying to find fun things to do in Middle Tennessee or in Gallatin, tell us a little bit about you. Did you grow up in Gallatin? Ryan Baker 0:35 I did. I grew up here in Gallatin. I was actually born in Hendersonville, and when I turned three, my mom and dad built a house in Gallatin, and we moved here in 1986. I lived in that same house my whole life, and then I made it about as far as Murfreesboro for four years, and then came back to Gallatin. John Haggard 0:59 And where did you go to high school? Ryan Baker 1:01 I went to Gallatin High School. John Haggard 1:02 All right. I think they’re having a pretty good football season, somebody told me. Is that true? Ryan Baker 1:07 They were. They only lost one game in the regular season this year. John Haggard 1:11 All right, well, so thinking about high school, what was the most fun thing or some of the fun things that you did while you were there? Ryan Baker 1:19 Well, when I was in school, what most kids were doing on a Friday or Saturday night, we just get in our car and cruise around what we call the Gallatin 500. It basically ran from where the old Walmart was at, where Ollie’s is now up to like the Food Lion parking lot and back around, and so you would just see a whole lot of cars really cruising all night. John Haggard 1:45 And so what did the police think about all that? Ryan Baker 1:48 You know, they were always really pretty laid back when we were in school. You know, every now and then, if the crowd got too big in a certain parking lot, they might come in, and you know, tell everybody move it along. But a lot of times they just stop by and chat with us too. John Haggard 2:03 Alright, so Ryan, you said you made it as far as Murfreesboro. So I’m assuming maybe you went to college there. Ryan Baker 2:10 That’s right. I went to MTSU originally for history. Changed a few times, bounced around different medical things. And then ended up actually with a degree in Tourism Studies at MTSU. It’s kind of a new program they have there. And when I graduated in 2015, the Sumner County Museum was hiring for director. And so my appreciation for history and knowledge with you know, tourism, kind of just a perfect fit, I guess. John Haggard 2:45 in reading your bio, I understand you were or still are a head coach? Ryan Baker 2:51 Yes. So I have coached a lot of, or most of my son’s soccer teams and basketball teams since he’s been participating. John Haggard 3:03 So what’s the number one tip to win a basketball game or a soccer game? What is it really that makes some teams succeed all the time, and others don’t? Ryan Baker 3:12 I think for kids, especially the younger kids, it is just to let them have fun, not put a lot of pressure on them, and kind of let them learn naturally and just make the game up. Just make it about fun. And once the kids are having fun, you’ll start to see you know, some W’s coming in. John Haggard 3:30 Your bio also says that you teach a Sunday school class? Ryan Baker 3:35 I did. My wife and I, we both taught at Godwine in Hendersonville for four-year-olds for several years. John Haggard 3:44 And when you are not at the Summer County Museum in terms of your time off, what do you like to do? Ryan Baker 3:50 So my biggest passion is going to be fishing. So I don’t get to fish as much as I would like because we Got a 13-year-old and a two-year-old right now. John Haggard 4:03 That’s a lot. Ryan Baker 4:04 But fishing, camping, being outdoors, really. If I’m outdoors, I’m happy John Haggard 4:10 Now have you heard Ryan about drone fishing? Ryan Baker 4:14 No, I have not. But I’ve heard about the new magnet fishing for people, you basically just take a big strong magnet on a rope, drop it down in the lake and see what you can pull out. John Haggard 4:26 Wow. Okay, yeah! Ryan Baker 4:28 People find bicycles and watches, phones, all kinds of things. I’ve not done that myself, though. John Haggard 4:35 So I was listening to a podcast about this drone fishing. And so what happens is, let’s say somebody set the ocean, they’re on the beach, they send the drone out, as long as it is within sight. It’s legal. And they have to, of course, be licensed, I suppose and follow local law. And they drop this fishing line, special fishing line, down and they’re able to see from the camera if there’s efficient, so they drop it down and boom, there you go on it. It seems like drones are getting involved everywhere. And I didn’t know if you would run into anybody doing that here or not. Ryan Baker 5:06 I have not, but I’m going to look that up. John Haggard 5:08 Kind of crazy, ain’t it? Ryan Baker 5:09 That’s something. Yeah, that’s something I need to know more about. John Haggard 5:12 Drone fishing. There you go. So So let me ask you this. You said you came to the Sumner County Museum based on your degree. How did you rise to the director? Most people come in, I would think as, you know, in various positions, you kind of work your way up. Ryan Baker 5:27 So the Sumner County Museum was actually founded in 1975. And the current facility opened in ’81. And for most of its existence, it has been ran by volunteers. Most of the exhibits in the museum are set up through volunteer efforts. A gentleman named Alan Hanes was a long-time volunteer curator there and did quite an amazing job, brought the museum had with the funding and things like that. But the board of directors decided to hire an executive director in 2015. I thought that was going to be the best way to give the museum a shot for success, I guess you could say. John Haggard 6:10 All right. And before you got involved in museum management and promotion, were you in a different line of work? Ryan Baker 6:17 I was and was in the restaurant industry for quite some time, ended up going into, you know, the management side of that. And I knew early on that that wasn’t what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. And now don’t get me wrong. I love cooking. I cook at home regularly John Haggard 6:32 And tell us how did the Sumner County Museum actually come about? How long has it been there, and how did it happen? Ryan Baker 6:40 So the museum that is located behind Trousdale Place, just a couple blocks from the Gallatin Downtown area. It was founded in 1975. That building opened in 81. And it was started by a group of people; two individuals probably have the biggest impact. Two founders being John Garrett, whose family owns Garrett Concrete here in Gallatin, and another gentleman named Robert Ramsey, and he was believed the owner of the Ram Craft Clock Company. And so they kind of teamed up and had this idea for a museum. And John, I know, was a long-time preservationist, collector of historical artifacts. And so I’d like to think that his collection probably got so big that he didn’t really have much of another choice, but to really open a museum. John Haggard 7:32 What are some of the cool things that you would find in the Sumner County Museum? Ryan Baker 7:37 The museum set up in chronological order. We’ve actually got three floors with about 10,000 square feet of exhibit space in the current museum. So we’ve got Native American exhibit that we have really like State Museum quality artifacts there. So those are really neat to see and kind of learn about their stories, and then we’ve got items from the Long Hunters that came through this are. We have a blacksmith shop, a tinsmith shop, gunsmith shop. We have exhibits on all of the major wars when Sumner County’s involved in it, from the Civil War up to Vietnam. We have information or an exhibit on schools here in Sumner County. We’ve got Gallatin’s first fire truck. We have Model T, Model A. We’ve got old Chevrolet and smart things about the Sumner County Drive-in that closed, I think it was around 96, 97 when they shut that down. Now, a lot of artifacts on farming, farm equipment. So we’ve really we’ve got, one way to put it, we’ve got a lot of stuff. John Haggard 8:37 Yeah, sounds like it. It really does. It really does. What about the funding? How does the museum get its funds? Ryan Baker 8:44 So the museum is private, so we’re not owned by the city or county or anything like that. So it’s really up to myself and the board of directors to raise funds throughout the year to keep, you know, just the operating costs going. The city of Gallatin, they do help us out with a grant every year that we’ve been receiving to help us, you know, just keep operating. John Haggard 9:06 Anything that you would say has been a very exciting addition to the museum over the last several years. Ryan Baker 9:12 So we’ve got a storage room upstairs. And you wouldn’t believe it is just full of things that have been donated over the years with things that the museum has acquired. And I remember it was a couple of years ago and is a rainy, rainy day. And I thought, I’m just going to go up there, go up here in this room, and kind of go through some things and look at different items and came across a box that said Buffalo Balloon on it. And I wondered what this could be, so I opened it up. And inside were artifacts and newspaper articles regarding the world’s first airmail delivery, and come to find out the world’s first recorded Air Mail Delivery was made in 1877. From Nashville to Gallatin via hot air balloon. And it was called the Buffalo Balloon. It was actually from New York. And one thing I couldn’t figure out is why they brought this to Nashville to deliver Air Mail. That’s one thing, one piece of the puzzle that I have not solved. But we do have several artifacts from that airdrop. And one of the envelopes that we have a copy of was actually on display in the Smithsonian Postal Museum in Washington, DC. And I did discover that there were not many of these airmail stamps made. There’s actually an argument whether there were three made or 300. But nevertheless, I did see where one I discovered where one sold at auction for a quarter-million dollar several years ago. So I don’t have many of those stamps. But we do have some of the original artifacts from that. And right now, we actually have a grad student named Marley, who’s at MTSU, and she is working on creating like a new display for these artifacts. So should be by probably March or April, we’ll have that set up at the museum. John Haggard 11:10 So Ryan, what do you see as you look into the crystal ball, the future plans for the museum, something we can look forward to say over the next couple of two or three years? Ryan Baker 11:21 I’m glad you asked that. So in 2015, Mr. Garrett, he raised money to purchase a property known as the Carriage House. And now this house built in 1831, and it sits directly across the street from where they just rebuilt Captain D’s here in Gallatin on East Main. Now, while doing that, he also, when he passed away in 2017, he left his home, known as Stonewall, or historic Stonewall, which actually sits adjacent to the Carriage House. This house was built in 1838, I believe, and that’s around 5600 square feet, and the Carriage House, I think, is 6500 square feet. And then also on the property, in the rear of the property sits the old county garage building. And I think it was built in the 1920s. So we have, in addition to our current museum, we have all these other properties that we are about to develop a strategic plan for. We’re going to be developing that January through probably March. So we’re going to be coming up with some really creative, strategic ideas and how to make this not only a tourist stop. But also something that’s going to be really beneficial to the county. John Haggard 12:40 So for someone who wants to come to the museum, Ryan, how long does it take to walk the floors, I think you said there are three and just to get through the entire museum. Ryan Baker 12:52 So usually, you could walk you could do a self-guided tour in 20 to 30 minutes if you want. It just depends on how fast you want to walk through and, and how much, how deep you want to dig. But a guided tour, myself, or our current volunteer curator, Chris Morris, we do most of the guided tours. And generally, you know, we could do depending on the age group, you know, somewhere around between an hour, an hour and a half for a guided tour. John Haggard 13:20 All right. Is there anything that people seem to misunderstand about the museum in any way? Ryan Baker 13:27 You know, a lot of people think that we are owned by the county, and we receive like regular county funding and things like that, but we’re not. Like I think I said earlier, we are private. And so we are, we’re responsible for raising all the funds, you know, to keep the museum running. John Haggard 13:45 As you get up every morning and you say, you know, I’m getting ready to go to work. Ryan, what would you say about your position, your job there that most inspires you? Ryan Baker 13:57 Well, for me, I get to learn something new almost every day. Gallatin has, Gallatin and Sumner County has such a rich history that most folks who live here are probably not aware of. So, for me, it’s just that opportunity to learn something new about our history and. And it’s really exciting and being able to share that with others, you know, through tours and, and special events and things like that. John Haggard 14:25 Is there anything I didn’t ask you that you would want people to know either about you or the museum? Ryan Baker 14:31 So let me tell you about some of the events that we hold at the museum. This just happened back in October, but our probably most popular event is our Annual Cemetery Tour. Wow. And so we portray people who are buried in the Gallatin City Cemetery. Now the first known burial there was, I think, 1818, so it’s over 200 years old. It’s a really unique setting. And so what we do is we lay out a path and usually portray about 10 characters. So we have actually volunteer actors in costume, who will tell the stories of different people buried in that cemetery. And usually, we have anywhere from 800 to like 1400 people come through and do that tour, and it’s a one night only for about five hours. It’s the first Saturday in October every year it follows the Main Street Festival that’s held Downtown. So that’s our most popular event. We also have a dinner that’s coming up pretty soon for Museum Association Members. So if you’re interested in learning more about the museum, becoming a member, finding out how you can get involved, that is a good event. We’re also hosting three nights on December the 8th, 9th, and 10th. That’s a Sunday, Monday, Tuesday. An Appalachian Christmas dinner and that will sell out will have period food, an Appalachian Storyteller here alongside period music. And we do limit that to 40 people each night and it will sell out. Tickets are on sale now; you can find those through our Facebook page through that event. Let’s see we’re planning a new fundraiser that will be sometime in the spring. I don’t have a lot of details on that now, but that’s going to be something new probably. Probably have something to do with the roaring 20s and maybe even a little prohibition, thrown in that. So people can, you know, follow us on our Facebook page. That’s probably the best way to keep up with what’s going on with the museum. So our website is sumnercountymuseum.org and our Facebook page, you would just search for Sumner County Museum. John Haggard 16:42 All right back to that cemetery for just a moment. Is there one surprise in the cemetery maybe someone who is buried there that people would know or would not expect to be there, but who is? Ryan Baker 16:55 So I think of the few people off the top of my head. One was Governor William Trousdale. The Trousdale place was actually his city home, but he was governor of Tennessee for two years. And he was also known as the War Horse of Sumner County for his efforts, I believe, from the Revolutionary War, War of 1812. And then by the time the Civil War rolled around, he was too old to partake in that even though he wanted to. And then another notable character that’s buried there would be Sam Houston’s first wife. Sam Houston, who the city of Houston’s named after, his wife Eliza Allen, is buried there. And she was actually the first lady to a foreign country who never visited there. John Haggard 17:43 So the one thing about you, Ryan, that most people would not know that someone would really be surprised to know about you? Ryan Baker 17:51 So when my wife and I met about 10 years ago, I found out that she regularly attended Bonnaroo. So when we started dating, I went with her. I think it was 2010 for my first Bonnaroo Festival, and we have been back together every year since, except for the year that our daughter was born. We didn’t make it that year. John Haggard 18:18 So Ryan, what’s the best way for somebody to get in touch with you? Ryan Baker 18:23 Probably shoot me an email. That is ryan.baker@sumnercountymuseum.org. And yet it’s all spelled out- Sumner County Museum. John Haggard 18:35 All right. Well, that’s Ryan Baker, everybody. Thanks, Ryan.

This week we have a total rockstar guest for you: Biet Simkin! Biet has an incredible story of trauma, discovery and growth and we totally bonded during this interview. I felt like we’d been lifelong friends, and hopefully you will too. Please note that there is some adult language and content in the episode, so please put headphones on if there are sensitive ears nearby. Also, Biet leads us in a gorgeous meditation (complete with her original music) towards the end of the recording. If you’re listening while driving or operating machinery, you must pause the interview at that point and only participate in the meditation when you are in a safe place. About Biet Biet Simkin is the Founder of Center of the Cyclone, an immersive experience that weaves meditation, self inquiry, art, music and fashion, offering an explosive experience. She is inspired by the rare and almost impossible task of entering into the present moment and creates this experience globally. After 30 years of study in the field Biet’s feeling was that the world of the intellect, fashion and art needed spirituality, and the world of spirituality was often missing the mark and needed some vanity and fire. Colliding these two worlds, Biet has created events with MoMA, Lululemon, SoulCycle, Summit Series, Vice, Free People, Sundance Film Festival, Bonnaroo Festival, Soho House, Mind Body Green, 1 Hotels, Neuehouse, Wanderlust Festival, Adidas, Samsung, Sony and more. Currently Biet has a book about the laws of meditation entitled "Don't Just Sit There!" to be released in Spring of 2019 with Simon & Schuster. She is the resident and in-house Meditation Leader at all 1 Hotels with in-room content across all properties. Biet is also the voice of Expectful, a meditation app for pregnant expecting mothers. Meditation with Biet is different in that it is more emotional, her work takes you through the emotional, intellectual, instinctive and moving centers to get to a place of equanimity and joy. Through private one on ones, corporate groups, parties, speaking engagements and pop-ups in museums and art galleries, Biet is bringing this big work into the world and helping raise consciousness from the outside in. Her work is also unique as it is bringing the sound of her music into the meditation experiences and giving music a new venue. Her latest album ‘The Lunar’ debuted September 2015. Her work has been featured in Harper’s Bazaar, ELLE, Vogue, The Observer, TIME Magazine, Forbes, The London Times and more! My favorite moments and takeaways from our conversation: Biet grew up unconventionally - a child of Russian Jews who fled their communist country, Biet was their “freedom child” Biet’s father was a spiritual teacher so spirituality was something Biet grew up around Biet went on to live an unconventional life as well when she pursued a music career - it was very much sex, drugs, rock and roll for Biet During her time as a musician, Biet used alcohol and later harder drugs to get into a spiritual space, as her life actually felt very empty The deaths of family members, and particularly her father, escalated a life change for Biet that made her re-evaluate her path Biet felt that the universe was asking her to continue her father’s work as a spiritual teacher….and so she did In the beginning, Biet was working random side jobs for cash while she asked friends if anyone wanted to be coached/guided by her and to just “pay what they want to pay her” as a means to start her work as a spiritual teacher Eventually, Biet was hosting spiritual events at well known places like Art Basel, Sundance Film Festival, Soul Cycle, and with brands like Adidas, Sony, Samsung Biet recently had a baby girl, which brought with it its own challenges, but she is loving motherhood so far Biet’s has a new book, “Don’t Just Sit There!” is to be released this spring Biet is also seeking new coaching clients Connect with Biet: Instagram: @guidedbybiet bietsimkin.com Biet’s Book Here’s to Getting Unstuck, Cynthia Sponsor Love: Today’s episode is brought to you by Russ Hickman Photography.

On today's show: a conversation with poet and author Maryan Nagy Captan Maryan is a poet, writer and performer currently centered in Philadelphia. Born in Cairo, Egypt, Mayan's parents immigrated to the U.S. in the 1990s where they earned a somewhat hard-scrabble living and raised two girls. With English as a second language, Maryan approached language with a linguistic curiosity that helped fuel her early creativity. In recent years, Maryan has indulged her love of travel, visiting and sometimes teaching writing to young people in Vietnam, Portugal, San Francisco and as we discuss, The Lakota Native reservation in Pine Ridge South Dakota. Maryan also has unleashed her first chapbook this year, a beautiful volume entitled COPY/BODY, published by Empty Set Press. Across the interview we discuss the immigrant experience, small town America, Maryan's love of hip-hop, the 2008 Bonnaroo Festival, soul great Solomon Burke, author Gwendolyn Brooks, performing for audiences, living well beneath the poverty line, feminism, teaching Lakota youth, where to sit in a sweat lodge, Maryan's emo phase and more, as well as hear Maryan performing her own work.

This week in The Armory we celebrate the 100th episode of the podcast with our good pal, Motion Potion, respected San Francisco DJ and founder of the hugely successful production/promotion services company, HUSHConcerts. The set you're about to hear was recorded live from the silent disco at the Bonnaroo Festival this year. We're honored that MoPo is letting us share it with you. Enjoy! “This was my tenth year playing at Bonnaroo Festival and to say that this is an honor is quite an understatement. As I explain clearly in my blog post (http://www.motionpotion.com/back-to-bonnaroo/) this festival is in many ways to credit for my having a career at all. For my tenth year, they had me play six sets over three days and each one was different. I played two sunshine vibe daytime sets, a special 80's set to celebrate Tears For Fears appearance at the festival, and a late night EDM scorcher on a flaming artcar. For this evening Silent Disco set I wanted to throw out any notion of “newness” or “hipness” and just play my favorite funky party jams and rock bangers for an audience that was waiting (on average) 2 hours to get into the tent. I also wanted to do some major shouting out to Robert Plant, who was in attendance. As it was the place went batshit crazy and I was extremely happy with the result. Often, a good show means a bad recording but I was happy enough about this recording to share it and so honored to have Zach and Armory agree to put it out. Enjoy!” - MoPo www.motionpotion.com www.hushconcerts.com Artwork by www.jempanufnik.com

Live report from Larry "Bonnaroo Dude" Safko. He's our official photographer for Bonnaroo, the largest outdoor music concert festival in North America. It's the Woodstock of our generation!

The music for this episode comes from this year's Vegoose festival held in Las Vegas. For the past 3 years the same crew that puts on Bonnaroo Festival has been throwing a Halloween music and arts festival of the same vein, minus the camping. I've never been to it personally but each year I try to download some of the sets that were fortunate enough to be taped (LMP Fact: the first episode featuring Dave Matthews and Tim Reyonlds was from Vegoose 2006!). This year I was pleasantly surprised to find Daft Punk's Vegoose performance hosted on bt.etree.org. If you are a fan of electronic or house music you've probably heard of them, but recently they made a huge jump into the mainstream music scene when Kayne West sampled their track on his song "Stronger". The video for "Stronger" also features an homage to the band. For the past decade most if not all of Daft Punk's public performances and interviews have been held with them in robot suits which are similar to the ones piloting the spacecraft in Kayne's the video. I was not aware of this until putting together this podcast, Daft Punk will be releasing a new live album titled Alive 2007 on December 4th, 2007. So if you enjoyed the Vegoose show I expect the live album to be very similar since it will contain the duo's performance in Paris from their Alive 2007 tour. Song listing 1) Robot Rock 2) Oh Yeah 3) Harder Better Faster Stronger 4) Burnin' 5) Too Long 6) Da Funk 7) Daftendirekt 8) Superheroes 9) Human After All 10) Together 11) One More TimeIf you enjoyed this podcast click the following links to download the rest of the show.Daft Punk - Las Vegas, NV - 10/27/07   Support the artists in this podcast by buying CDs and watching them live!
