CLUBS:

VINYL
What more can
one say about a groovy funk band once you've mentioned that they've
headlined sold-out shows at the San Fransisco Filmore Auditorium?
I mean pass me the peas, people. Or that they've gigged more
than 800 shows since 1995. That's a whole lotta "He'p me!"s and
"Get on up!"s. Not to mention that Jambands.com voted them one
of the country's top 25 bands in '99. I mean what more can
one say? Friday, Wild Duck. —BF |

THE
BRIEFS
It's
this punk-rock/new-wave band's first time headlining the Community
Center for the Performing Arts, although they opened there for
TSOL last September. Normally haunting the globe five hours
north, selling out vinyl releases in Seattle, the Briefs take
the town supported by Eugene's own Wristrockets and The Bastard
Saints. Friday, WOW Hall. —BF

JIM
HERSHEY'S CD RELEASE
PARTY
Mr. Hershey celebrates the release of
his new CD with a wee fiesta on the Downtown mall! His collection
of tunes, titled Gas Money, highlights Hershey's howls,
harmonica and hopefully hilarious lyrics. He'll be joined by
TR Kelley on her five-string fretless surfboard. Hang 10, sis'.
Saturday, Cafe Paradiso. —BF

MOTHERBUS
This
four-member jam band's been touring the southwest for the last
seven years. A combination of the two groups Shorbus and Mamasaid,
the Flagstaff, Ariz. Motherbus mixes a mash of funk, soul and
rock. Not to be confused with the group "Motherbug," an R&B
enclave also known to appear in this neck of the mother. I mean
woods. Thursday, Luna, Friday, Jo Federigo's, Sunday, Fox
& Firkin. —BF

Test
of Time
Little
Feat big on longevity.
BY VANESSA SALVIA
Few bands playing today have
been around since the heydays of the
'60s. Even fewer bands still playing these days have been around that
long and are still good (Jefferson Spaceship comes immediately
to mind). Little Feat is one of those bands that has withstood
the test of time.
Little Feat's music is alive for a whole new generation
of fans who appreciate the earthy mix of rock and roll and humor.
The band, born in L.A. in the late '60s, took a Dixieland approach
with horns, folk, country and free-wheelin' rock for an unforgettable
mixture that we still love. The early songs are classic nuggets to
us now, and more recent cuts may be destined for that same esteem.
Today, the band retains two original members and five
new ones, infusing itself with new blood. The band's most recent CD,
Chinese Work Songs, was released in 2000. That album saw Little
Feat pulling from the past as well as giving a nod to some new directions
in music — on that CD, the band covered Bob Dylan, The Band,
and Phish.

LITTLE
FEAT PERFORM AT THE MCDONALD THEATRE ON TUESDAY.
|
That same year, Warner Archives/ Rhino honored the
group with a retrospective 4-CD 83-track release entitled Hotcakes
& Outtakes: 30 Years of Little Feat. This ambitious project
was initiated and produced by both keyboardist and vocalist Bill Payne,
who has been with the band since 1969, and guitarist and vocalist
Paul Barrere, member since 1972.
The birth story of Little Feat is one of inspired
beginnings: Lowell George, who started out as a Mother of Invention
with Frank Zappa, was pushed out of the nest as it were and encouraged
by Zappa to form his own band. He did so, and brought in Bill Payne.
The group would exist as a foursome to record the band's first two
LPs, a self-titled debut in 1971 followed by Sailin' Shoes.
They only proceeded to get better with 1973's Dixie
Chicken ("Fat Man in the Bathtub"). They dished up two more releases
before their live double-LP, Waiting For Columbus. Lowell George
met an untimely demise during the recording of their eighth release,
1979's Down On the Farm. It was at this point the band took
a break for several years, reforming in 1988 with a new lineup and
with Craig Fuller on the mic.
The band released three more albums, then Fuller departed
and was replaced with Shaun Murphy, a woman who added a bluesy spice
to the mix. This is the current incarnation, which was captured on
a two-CD live set in 1996, Live From Neon Park. Appearing with
Little Feat for their August tour dates will be guitarist Stephen
Bruton, who was Kris Kristofferson's lead guitarist "on-and-off
for 17 years" and spent time during the '90s as a touring member of
Bonnie Raitt's band. Little Feat will appear Tuesday at the McDonald.
Deke Dickerson and the Ecco-Fonics will
retro-fit Sam Bond's Monday night. L.A.'s Deke Dickerson has rumbled
through three releases, the most recent entitled Rhythm Rhyme and
Truth, and I guess that does just about cover everything that's
important, doesn't it? Dickerson can croon or he can wail, he can
hip sway or he can shake and he combines a little bit of it all for
a fine country, swing and hillbilly evening.
Dickerson honed his significant stage presence in
his surf-garage band Untamed Youth, then he went on to form the Dave
and Deke Combo, which you hipsters will know played John Henry's several
times. Rhythm Rhyme and Truth has some rockin' numbers of course,
and it just wouldn't be right to not have at least one car song, in
this case, "Hot Rodder's Lament."
He's also got a song about ladies, or at least their
hair. Some of you may have sensed a theme emerging: "Peroxide Blonde"
and "Red Headed Woman" from earlier albums are followed up by the
swinger "Give Me A Brunette."

Seattle's
Zony Mash heats up Luna.
BY BRETT CAMPBELL
New York avant-jazz keyboard
genius Wayne Horvitz moved to Seattle awhile back, enriching
the Northwest jazz scene. Horvitz's acoustic sets at Luna in the spring
rate high on the list of recent shows in town, and now he's bringing
his electric funk quartet Zony Mash to Luna on Friday, Aug.
16.
While those earlier acoustic shows were all about
atmosphere, restraint, and impressionism, sticking close to the compositional
structures on their albums, Zony is a wilder thing, unleashing Horvitz's
funk/noise side. With scorching guitar flipouts that approach Hendrixian
proportions, spacy grooves that should endear them to Eugene's jamband
fans, (come hear what a real improviser sounds like!), and
danceable jazz/funk rhythms worthy of Medeski, Martin & Wood —
Zony's vision is broad enough to encompass hipsters to hippies to
hip-hoppers.

| WAYNE
HORVITZ (RIGHT) AND ZONY MASH PLAY LUNA ON FRIDAY. |
The Northwest's cool, sunny summers and spectacular
ocean views often attract heat-weary East Coast musicians. Last month,
Newport's Ernest Bloch Music Festival imported New Yorker David Del
Tredici as composer in residence for its composer's symposium. He
brought with him the superb Israeli-born soprano Hila Plittman, who
gave an effervescent performance of his powerful new song cycle, Lament
on the Death of a Bullfighter.
The text comes from a poem by Joshua Beckman and each
section commences with the line "At the news of your death." Del Tredici,
the pre-eminent American neo-romantic composer, first heard the poem
just after losing his lover to AIDS. He then poured his heart into
the music he created around it, and during the show, he performed
the turbulent piano accompaniment with considerable panache. Perhaps
the text's touches of whimsy and irony helped counteract the tendency
to melodrama that has marred some of Del Tredici's work, for despite
its characteristically wide dynamic range and emotional eruptions,
the Lament seldom succumbs to sentimentality.
Plittman also devoured the spotlight in Del Tredici's
Dracula for soprano and 13 instruments. Her over-the-top attire
— black and red satin cape, shiny black leather gown, black
high heeled go-go boots — mirrored the piece's fang-in-cheek
take on the old tale. Again, the text — Alfred Corn's poem,
"My Neighbor, the Distinguished Count," provided the composer a well-defined
perspective on the story.
Plittman perfectly conveyed the narrator's satirical,
mock-sincere stance, wandering and writhing on stage (enhanced with
subtle silhouette and red-lighting effects), and taking a few mock
bites from the musicians' throats, yet delivering the wide-ranging
melodies with aplomb. Despite her microphone, however, it was sometimes
hard to hear her over the chamber ensemble, drawn mostly from Oregon
Symphony and other Portland-area new music players, which included
a theremin (exploited for its monster-movie associations), wind machine,
and other colorful percussion.
If Dracula eventually strays a bit too far
into repetitious camp, it's still a lot of fun, and fine fare for
a relaxed summer setting in the intimate Performing Arts Center. But
the last piece, Stravinsky's A Soldier's Tale, may have been
a bit too relaxed. The choice of Oregon native and coast resident
David Ogden Stiers as narrator was more than a celebrity cameo, as
the accomplished Broadway and television ("M*A*S*H" and countless
PBS voice-overs) actor and narrator has conducted many orchestras
and trained at Juilliard. But Stiers' curiously flat reading of the
abbreviated version of the piece, along with the use of the festival's
directors in roles that really need real actors, undermined this performance,
as did the use of an abbreviated version adapted from Stravinsky's
concert suite, which had the effect of changing the ending.
Still, it was well-played, especially by Portland
violinist Ron Blessinger of the Third Angle New Music Ensemble. Also,
artistic director Sylvain Frémaux deserves plaudits for the emphasis
on contemporary music — two of the festival's three concerts
featured only 20th-century compositions, including major works by
its namesake — and for creating a relaxed, creative environment
for both listeners and emerging composers. The Ernest Bloch Festival
is a nice indoor complement to a gorgeous summer weekend on the Oregon
coast.

Panic
No More
Michael
Houser leaves uncertainty in wake of his death.
BY ROB WEISS
Michael Houser, lead guitarist
and a founding member of Widespread Panic,
died at his home in Athens, Georgia on Saturday Aug. 10 after a short
bout with pancreatic cancer. He was 40 years old.
Widespread Panic has become one of the country's top-grossing
live acts as well as the de facto leader of the jam band movement.
In existence since the mid '80s, Panic grew in sounds and songs, playing
across the nation to devoted fans known as Spreadheads. The band got
its name from Houser's nickname, Panic.
Houser wrote and sang some of the band's most popular
songs including "Picking Up the Pieces," "Ain't Life Grand," "Airplane"
and "The Waker," a song he named after his son. He was equally at
home playing smooth Southern countrified rock as well as heavy blazing
overdriven leads. He was brilliant at improvisations, often taking
the band to dizzying heights within their extensive repertoire.
Houser was no ordinary rock star. He sat down when
he played and was content to let the front-man status fall on the
shoulders of lead singer and dear friend, John Bell. With his ever-present
Fender Telecaster, Houser drove the band with his scorching lead work,
hiding behind his mop of hair and surrounded by his stacks of speakers
at the side of the stage. Houser would wait and let the rest of the
band have their turn and then rip laser-beam like solos that were
both melodic and tonally unique.
Rumors surfaced in early spring that Houser had cancer,
although no official announcement came until early summer when it
was apparent that he would not be able to continue the band's summer
tour.
His last show was at Red Rocks Amphitheater near Golden,
Colo. on July 2. This venue was a favorite of the band's and the fans
and it seemed appropriate for Houser to end his run there, a place
of stunning beauty that was formed by nature.
Remaining members of Widespread Panic chose to continue
their summer tour without Houser. They replaced him with not one musician
but two. George McConnell took over the daunting lead guitar duties
and Randall Bramblett played saxophone and various other instruments
in Houser's inimitable void. The tour concluded on July 28 at the
Greek Theatre in Berkeley.
Most accounts of these shows have been positive, but
after 15 years, it will surely take some time for the band and the
fans to get used to a show without Houser.
Although Widespread Panic is scheduled to play this
weekend (at Fiddler's Green Amphitheater outside of Denver), no decision
had been made by presstime as to whether they would keep these dates
or what they are planning for their future.

Long
Live The King
Ex-bodyguard
remembers Elvis 25 years later.
BY KATE
SILVER, ALTERNET
Twenty-five years after his
death, The King's ethereal presence is
still swiveling its royal hips. In many ways, Elvis Presley is just
as alive today as he was back in the day (no, not literally, conspiracy
theorists). Consider the inescapable (and oft poorly imitated) "Thank
you, thank you very much," millions of Elvis sightings, trillions
of velvet Elvi and hordes of impersonators that can be found in any
sizable city in any state in the country. The phenomena shocks even
Dave Hebler, Elvis' former bodyguard and martial artist who experienced
His Eminence firsthand.
| 'His
life may have ended prematurely, but by God, what a life.' |
"I'm just absolutely astounded that 25 years have
gone by," says Hebler, who now owns a karate studio in Hillsboro,
Ore. "Elvis touched a chord in people when he was alive and that chord
is still ringing 25 years later. Absolutely unbelievable."
Hebler is a wealth of knowledge about The King, some
of which he's willing to share, and reams of behind-the-scenes debauchery
that he prefers to internalize. Co-author of Elvis, What Happened?
a best-selling book about his and two other body guards' experiences
with Elvis, Hebler was on the road with The King until a year before
he died. He fondly remembers the first time they met in 1972 at a
karate studio in Santa Monica, Calif.
"We were all working out, having a good time and noticed
there was a commotion at the door. When I looked up, in walked Elvis
Presley," Hebler recalls. "He ended up out on the mats with us, and
I ended up being his partner, or in our terminology, his dummy. The
dummy is the person who initiates the attack and you perform whatever
technique you're going to perform on him, and he just kind of stands
there. I guess he kinda liked beating on me so he came out to my studio
a couple days later and invited me to be one of the Memphis Mafia
boys, go on tour and go off into Never Never Land."
Thus began his journey, which ended in 1976 —
a year before the King died — for reasons that are still a mystery
to Hebler. But his memories of The King revolve around all of the
good times and laughs they shared. And the lessons that he's learned.
Right now Hebler is preparing for a trip out to the
Elvis-A-Rama museum in Las Vegas, Nev., (a kind of Graceland of the
West) where Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman will proclaim "Elvis Presley
Day," patrons will each Elvis cake, watch Elvis impersonators and
embark on an Elvis candlelight vigil. He took a few minutes to say
what he's gleaned from his years with Elvis,
On Elvis and drugs:
"Nobody can beat drugs, I don't care who
you are. When you've got drugs hammering your system, of course you're
not in control. You may think you are, but you're not. It was a shame,
too. I've got to tell you something: When Elvis was straight he was
the greatest guy I've ever met in my life. He was warm and friendly
and funny. He was hilarious."
On Elvis impersonators:
"I don't like the ones who think they're
Elvis. They kind of piss me off. But the ones who admire Elvis, they're
generally doing it from a tribute perspective, I pretty much like
them. But at the same time, I feel a little bit sorry for them, because
their chosen profession is to imitate someone else, and that means
they can never win. As long as you're imitating someone else, you'll
never come in first. Still, for someone to get up and be an Elvis
imitator he has to really work hard, put out a tremendous amount of
effort for an extended period of time, you've got to kind of admire
that."
On the possibility of Elvis living:
"People who believe that Elvis lives try
to give me facts and it's always something obscure. 'There was an
orange that fell out the tree in Ft. Lauderdale and when the folks
picked it up it has Elvis' face on it and that proves he's still alive.'
I tell them I keep him in my closet and feed him peanut butter and
banana sandwiches fried in butter. They're absolutely right. No, what
can you say to them? 'You're stupid,' 'You're dumb,' 'You're crazy'?
They're convinced for whatever reason you're not going to change their
mind. It's pointless to argue, and I don't like arguing. Believe in
whatever you want."
And on the richness of Elvis' life:
"People say to me all the time 'It's such
a shame that Elvis died so young.' Well let me tell you something:
Elvis Presley actually achieved the one thing that you, and I and
everybody else on the face of this planet try to achieve. He was able
to live life on his own terms. He did everything he wanted to do,
he went everywhere he wanted to go, he met anyone he wanted to meet.
He literally did everything he wanted. I don't know how many people
can say that. His life may have ended prematurely, but by God, what
a life. What impressed me more than anything else is how enormously
powerful he was. No one ever said 'no' to Elvis Presley."
