 the most enduring rock 'n' roll traditions are made.
On Sunday there were frequent stylistic references to Bob Dylan, and many to The Band. The Heartbreakers remain Mike Campbell on guitar, Benmont Tench, keyboards; Howie Epstein, bass and Steve Ferrone, drums, with some additional keyboard and guitar help. Each gets solo space (especially Campbell), but overall this is an ensemble effort. Often overlooked is Petty's own remarkably sensitive and commanding guitar work, around which most renditions are centered.
Opening Sunday's show was a performance by Williams and her fine band. Petty and Williams recorded "Change The Locks" together in 1996 (she did it, solo, on Sunday) and her folk-country-rock style and material fitted perfectly into the pattern of Petty's subsequent set.
Williams' band arrangements worked behind her voice beautifully - especially on "Right In Time," a wonderful number.
The mood of Petty's shows at the Fillmore brings back memories of bygone years, when rock 'n' roll was more personal, and more fun; when the crowd felt like family and accepted the performers (who were usually very close to their age) as close friends.
The deep impression that Petty's music makes on his Fillmore listeners is also an aspect of the feeling that the old hall itself creates. Williams looked around the auditorium, then at the crowd as its cheers subsided, and said, "I can tell you're not a folk music audience, you're a rock 'n' roll crowd."
Petty merely said, "There's something very special for me and the Heartbreakers to play in this famous place."
On Monday night, Petty's guests will be the group "War." His rock 'n' roll jamboree series, long since sold out, continues on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday of this week and on Monday and Tuesday, March 15 and 16.We have gone to using cur type dogs, [ blackmouth,catahoula] almost all the time in our part of the world. with much more success than we had with the herding breeds. Curs will go hunt cattle in brush and bay them up, where the other dogs I have had would run more cattle off than they caught. Just wonderin what type of dogs yall prefer?
I have always been interested in the black-mouthed curs AND the Catahoula's. Don't know anyone that has a Black-mouthed cur. When we were needing a dog, I did look into that breed, but there are none around here.
Most people don't realize "Old Yeller" was a Catahoula.
Our best dog came from some folks named Birrer in western Montana. The son now lives in Nebraska. They have raised these dogs for almost 50 years and I believe they must go back to some Black-mouth curs. They are yellow or red, with white markings and short ears that do not stand up.
If you look at my avatar that is a picture of the last one we were able to get. We have her now, and she wants to be a cowdog, but she sure isn't anywhere near as good as the old dog we had. But she is still young, not a year old yet. I hope to have someone help me today post some pictures on here and we will try to get a picture of her. A very unique thing these dogs possess is a line up the back of their neck. It is a ridge of darker hair that stands straight up when the dog is aroused by something strange. It looks like the hair on a Rhodesian Ridgeback. These dogs are double tough, this pup is not. Not yet anyway. They were excellent guard dogs, so far this pup likes everyone.
Our old dog never, ever, in her whole life ever barked at a cow. She was a great dog and a lot of help. If I can figure out how, I will post a picture of her.
What's the guy doing that trained the other dog??? Reason I ask, maybe offer to have him come and work with you and the dog for awhile. Put him up and give him some money. That way you get the good dog and learn how to make some more good ones.
We use both type of dogs the Catahoula's for catch and brush dogs and the Australian shepherd's for herding. They both have there place. My wife used to do the Border collies trained them to go out and bring cattle in they were just to smart for me. I like to have my dogs closer I'm more of a hiss them on and get them kind of guy. Oh well everybody likes something different.News of interesting new approaches to writing fiction is coming from all over the world.
In Germany 40 authors conceived, wrote and published a book in 12 hours to mark World Book Day. Some of the authors expressed anxiety about producing a contribution in two hours, but the experiment was successful in focusing attention on writers and writing - although you'd have to read the book to find out whether the result was any good.
In the meantime, books still manage to generate huge amounts of column inches. Producing something which is really original (as well as good) should get you into print in the end. Jasper Fforde, after spending nineteen years as an assistant cameraman by day and a writer by night, broke through with his fifth novel, five years in the writing, The Eyre Affair. What made the difference was that the adventures of his feisty heroine Thursday Next scrambled up time and borrowed from different genres in a witty, entertaining and quite original way. His new Thursday Next novel, Lost in a Good Book, now has a ready-made audience. The first one was so different from anything else around at the time that Fforde collected 76 rejections before he finally found a publisher. Persistence - and talent - paid off in the end.We, the Black Law Students Association of Washington and Lee University School of Law, exist for the support, guidance and direction of diverse students in academic, professional and social endeavors throughout the campus.

Since we drove around the eastern side of Maui, it only felt natural to drive the west as well. Our West Maui road trip started at our hotel in Wailea around 10AM. It felt like a late start, but according to our GPS the route was a lot shorter than driving the East side. We chose to do the north side first, as it would take longer than the rest of the drive and we wanted to complete it first instead of having to rush later. Please note that it is recommended to drive clockwise around the west side of the island, so when you have to share the road with a car, you’re not on the cliff side. To be honest, it wasn’t something that we had considered and luckily wasn’t something we had to deal with. Most of our passings with other cars were on road that was wider and more forgiving. There were plenty of one-lane blind turns though, which usually require a warning honk before passing.
Not too long after we started navigating the windy section of the road, Søren got car sick. There wasn’t a place to pull over for a few minutes, and luckily we had extra towels and water which helped a little with cleanup. I still feel so bad for him, but really it wasn’t a great drive for any of us. While it was beautiful as a whole, there were very few scenic views or even places to park. Our first major stop was at Olivine Pools, and afterwards we were all a little too tired to do the full hike to Nakalele Blowhole. We only made a couple of other stops along the way, as we mostly wanted to get back and clean up the mess. Maui Guidebook has a great list of places to visit along the way.
Oh! Poor, sweet Soren. That’s awful. 🙁 I’m sorry the drive wasn’t that great — sounds a bit scary!
Those views are unreal though — so, so beautiful!
It wasn’t too bad aside from the carsick incident. If someone is pressed for time though, I wouldn’t recommend doing it.or skeleton or be invisible i don't care. know you have a long way to travel. know i don't even know if it's long at all.
u r a n u s.
cast sharp shadows.
as i wrapped it around my palm.
the hastened hammering of my heart.
of shiny red skin.
i wake up somewhere sunny.
my shadow dark beside me.
